23:2. One death gained on the last day Kessel was general PvP because I wasn't watching my ass while killing a gunboat, and the other death recently because in a PvP event I was told I was going to be many people's first target in a cloud of like 12 fighters.
Every single one of mine is a gun kill, though. The incessant beeping of missiles drives me insane.

106 rebel kills
1 death
around 40 of those kills came from the same 7 rebels zerging me every time I killed all of em. Coincidentally, it would have been 42+ kills had they not killed me on the 6th pass, while I was aggroed at the end of a mission by about 10 coynites.
I loved the /tells I was getting from them telling me how I got pwned too.

Whoever is PvPing with a Firespray either has a cast iron pair or is an absolute moron.

Well, there must be a large number of them on Eclipse. Out of my 23, four have been Firespray kills.
I think some people just don't grasp that the chassis of ships is a finite value and should be treated as an third-line-of-defense armor rating rather than "that number that keeps going down when I die."

ive killed alot of firesprays myself. they cant be all that bad, i mean ive pvp'd in a longprobe before, and got 6 kills to no deaths in a single night. four tie-ag's (these were in a pair, they came back for more but after i sent them both packing a second time they showed up covert) a tie-opp and a tie-adv. if a longprobe can do that than a more manuverable firespray can do it too, even if it is a huge target.
ohh and wheres all the people from bria? this is sad, its the biggest server but all the pilots are wimps.

I'm sure this'll earn me yet another one-star, but I still maintain that for as unpopular a decision as it was to make Kessel PvE, not many people seem to be going overt and making their own PvP. Ditto goes for Deep Space. I've claimed ONE kill there since acing.
Personally, I want a better indicator of when someone's locked me up, and I want people to know *I'm* coming. Maybe if they added that, more people would be up for PvPing. Right now all I've noticed is when someone examines or targets me, I get the "twink" noise out of key.

five stars for you, i agree completely, but i personaly never got to experiance the pvp kessel. i still get a few fights, but ive only come accross a couple people who declare for the purpose of pvp, most of the overts i catch are just grinding faction.
while im not sure if having the master mission in a pvp sector is a good idea, i think there should be pvp content beyond master, where you can earn something like a badge or a new title. just a couple missions in deep space that give an incentive to come out and play.
possibly even a real reward, something like a limited use schematic that shipwrights can use to craft powerful ship parts. that would make it so that the non-pvp'ers could still have access to the part by buying it off a sw, but only people who pvp can aquire it. i dont think anyone would have a reason to complain about something like that. pve'ers (aka wimps) cant moan about being FORCED to pvp since they can still buy it easily, and the shipwrights will love being able to create something truly powerful.
what us pvp'ers lack is purpose. it is purpose that created us, purpose that guides us, and it is purpose that us overt pilots want to be able to take from each other *SHOVES FINGER FORCEFULY INTO THE DEV'S CHEST*

I claim total control of Starsider's deep space zone. I've killed countless players, rebels and imperials alike (I'm CorSec.) I've only encountered one worthy challenger. His name is Castle Bravo. He was my first kill and was my first killer. Every time we fight the odds seem perfectly even. I've been taken out by other players before, but only on head to head encounters. Even still, I win 80% of the time and can survive 1-2 direct hits at times. My Krayt is a murderous weapon in deep space and I challenge anyone anytime. I will prevail.

Well, he does share a name with the most powerful US intraatmospheric thermonuclear test. Naming yourself after a 15 megaton explosion is kinda unique - I'm pissed I didn't think of it.
