Soonest? lol i have had this happen many times, i take it as a perfect opportunity to engage in some target practice!!
It is pretty exciting, the problem will be balancing. Can single bee kill you? The answer is no, unless you're allergic to them of course. So, I would think a single buccaneer would be like a bee attacking an Orion, it would sting but really stands no chance of doing anything to it - shields alone would absorb anything by the "bee" tossed at it. Now, imagine a swarm of bees... that is a different story. So, I hope a buck could not do anything to larger ships, just annoy and harass. I really do not want to see a single buck, or even 2 or 3 of them doing anything to an Orion, or large ship for that matter. What's a PT boat going to do against a destroyer... nothing except piss them off.This sounds like all full of awesome sauce. I'm glad there is an easy way of escape, but I think if indeed you are flying in and out of outlaw space, this ought to happen regularly and with a growing threat.
Used to get it in some of the sketchy sectors in Freelancer - there was no Quantum but you had travel lanes which were made of gates that'd throw you across a sector very quickly... If a lane was disrupted you'd fall out of it and be set upon by raiders. You could also jump out of a lane and deactivate the nearest gate by shooting at it, freighters would fall out of it and you could attack them for their freight. The gate would slowly recover and once back up to strength the lane was complete again.I can't guess why everyone is taking this casually. I don't know of any other game that has enacted this gaming dynamic and it is one of the reasons I want to play SC!
Count me excited!
