Kenada Posted October 14, 2001 Report Share Posted October 14, 2001 To my amazement, a few people have already begun preparing for GCO, and for MP. Intercorp is one example. Since I am a trader, and probably a non-respectable, when come down to GCO, I wont be seen much in places that have security in many ways... MY REPUTATION would hinder that. Therefore, there would be a problem. But I see it as a opportunity not to unite, but come together in a different sense, as a "family." The scum of society (including me), needs a haven to call our own. I place where we gather to conduct our business and don't have to worry about laws inforcers breathing down our back. Mainly, a place were the hunted can take a brake. Wether is a isolated moon, or a Space Port, it would work, but some would have to be a little more dedicated than other. It would have to be defended. It would be a challenge... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the reasons you mentioned were exactly the trigger for me and a few others to start Intercorp. AFAIK, you're referring to Intercorp's equivalent on the other side of the reputation scale.As for ppl preparing for MP. Correct me if I'm wrong, but those fleet leaders (and SC ofcourse) have been preparing for MP for the last couple of years. We Intercorp characters are merely the newcomers , rather active, but new nonetheless.Anyway, bottom line is that you can do whatever you want in BCM/GCO, and so can you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Lindsey Posted October 14, 2001 Report Share Posted October 14, 2001 I was wondering the same thing.

But how could trader get a bad rep would be a good questions. In stead of road rage, it would SPACE RAGE. A cruiser cuts you off, and then you ram em! Seems fun!

So you're gonna play it like the mafias, I assume.Assuming, that you have no interest in joining any organisations or starting up your own, then you don't have to do anything, during MP and GCO you just park your self on orbit around any convienient planet without any problems.As for defences, you will have to purchase your own. No freebies for anybody, if I'm not wrong.BTW unless as stated above, you plan to ram military ships, what can you do to get a bad reputation?

Cmdr Jeffery Eu Posted October 15, 2001 Report Share Posted October 15, 2001 I understand what you mean. Anyway, try lurking around for awhile to see where you're more suited to.Word of advise though, even in BCM:MP the indies will be getting the raw end of the deal as the SC has stated clearly that he will be scripting multiplayer epics for the fleets with a general exception of one or two indies. So if you're thinking of getting involved in large battles, multiplayer and roleplaying, you might want to consider joining the fleets instead. The above reason, is why Riga and myself are organising Intercorp instead and gearing it more towards GCO as we both have RL constraints that does not allow us to abide by the rules of the fleets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But so far, the whole Intercorp idea is very apealing... it might be in my best interest to join, and by me doing so, will get you a few raiders.. The way I see, the more people that band together in the beginning, the better we would be in long run. When GCO frist starts up, it will probably be the hardest time to get going for all of us. I going to be with something since the beginning... That i will be proud of... I cant wait to hear more. To see that much dedication in organizing something, is to see something that good will come out off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cmdr Nova Posted October 15, 2001 Report Share Posted October 15, 2001 I know someone who might want to help unite a group of 'undesirable' castes, and/or overall indies with bad reps. The bad guy/space cowboy sorta thing. Is that what you're thinking? (Ahh, when I was an Indie, I was planning to do the space cowboy sorta act....... Bad to the bone!!.... Okay, kill the flashback.) Back on subject:*ahem* Commander Cypher, where are you!!!!?? (I think I'll send good ol' Chris an E-Mail........) This assassin looks like he'll be gearin' up soon.
