Pilot Archive

1. Rebel Shield Reinforcement Programs do not work at all.
2. Smuggler Tier 3, mission 4 is bugged. The Hutts do not help you against the Rancor Clans. They instead either sit idle, or attack your groupmates.
3. Better feedback on what droid programs do. In the ship component screen (V in space) it should tell you your original stats, and your current "overloaded" stats. Ie, Reactor overload should show on your reactor: Energy Generation: 12200 (15450) or somesuch. All stats which are affected should be noted. Damage, cap drain, energy maintenance, etc. Having to guess at it is plain stupid.
4. PVP for master sucks, I have to agree. Especially with the rediculous state of PVP currently.
5. Pirate Trap just plain sucks. It is ineffectual at best, dangerous at worst.

Kyara, A friend from my roleplaying town (neutral town) gave an open invite to other people to come along and help on her duty mission. She is imperial on the ground and privateer in space. Me andFwed decided to join her, I'm imperial both on the ground and in space,Fwed isa rebel on the ground and in space. First off it was just me and Kyara, we group up in spaceand we had some fun in Lok while waiting for Fwed to join us. We worked together without a problem. We then hyperspace to Dantooine to do the mission and invite fwed into the group.

The mission starts and I find that everytime I hit something it beeps ... meaning I don't have permission to attack her mission targets which were neutral ships (Me and Kyaradestroyed neutral ships in lok without a problem). Fwed is initially able to attack and damage the mission ships but then gets the same problem as me ... it beeps ... he can't do anything ... he did hit an imperial ship. Fed up that I can't do anything, I hyperspace out of the system and disband ... which doesn't sort out that fwed and kyara cannot attack ships together ... fwed later got attacked by a neutral, non-mission ship and Kyara couldn't help him. I try the knowledge base which is less than useless in answering my problem.

I think because of our mix there may have been a permission conflict. Also she got the mission before grouping

Later that night, me and Katsumi went out into space together, grouping and then getting our missions. We're both imperial space and imperial ground and had no problems whatsoever ... we had a lot of fun and kicked ass in dantooine.

In the ground game we can hunt together without a problem. Whats up with the space aspect? I can understand me not being able hit ties and fwed not being able to rebel ships ... but neutral ships?

Does anyone have any knowledge or info they could share about group space combat? because this is confusing as it stops us doing town space stuff.

*****

Tried this multiple times ...

We can hunt PVE on the ground together ... we should be able to do it in space ... there should be non-faction specificmissions for friends to do together,

same deal here, except I cannot attack anything imperial even though I am rebel on the ground, and RSF privateer in space. When I target ties, I get the beep sound as well, last night 3 of us went to endor to kill tie bombers at empire 2 station, and I warped to "the twilight zone" My group could not see me, and I could not see them. I recieved system messages when they looted/killed something, but I could not see them, or the ties they were fighting, even though we were supposedly only 5m from each other. THAT IS AN ISSUE, I JOINED PRIVATEER NOT THE DAMN EMPIRE!!!

Congrats on the position, Smoke.

My number one issue with the pilot profession is the lack of a master (non-multiplayer) ship for Privateer. I understand why the Firespray was spread across all three professions entirely. I'd just like to see it replaced with something else.
