In Elite Dangerous, I'm out in my SRV and get back to find a random player shooting at my parked ship with a PvP-equipped Federal Gunship!

    This reminds me of an encounter I had in the game EVE Online. I was mining with a friend once, just the two of us in a low security system, when suddenly there was a massive spike of people (like 20+ people). When we saw this, we immeadiately started aligning to the station in system to get to safety. I was in a bigger, slower, mining ship, so I had difficulty aligning. Next thing I know, just before I'm about finished aligning, the 20+ people warped in on me. They were all flying logistic ships (healers) and were using drones (5 drones each player meaning there was over 100 drones attacking me) for damage. For a good 5 minutes, they kept me warped scrambled while damaging and healing my ship at the same time. They were just trolling. After a while, I said into local chat "You guys having fun?" To which they responded by taking off their healing and finishing me off. I went back into a station right next to that system which had all of my ships in it, including a pipe-bombing Megathron (a battleship fitted to counter drone warfare). I sat at the warp gate to the system and asked my buddy if they were still in that asteroid belt. He told me they were camping the other side of the gate, and told me not to jump in because I would get destroyed. I said "Screw it, LEEROOOOOOOY JEEEEEENKIIIIINNNNS!!!!" and warped into system. When I got in, they were attacking a poor noob who was just trying to pass through the system, because the alternative route would've taken 12 jumps. I immediately uncloaked to get their agro. Sure enough, they fell for it and sent all 100 drones after me. Once I started taking damage, I dropped one round of pipe-bombs, and every single last one of their drones popped like balloons falling onto a floor of tacks. Just like that 95% of their damage output was gone. I kept dropping pipe-bombs to prevent them from sending out more drones. They kept attacking me for a good 4 minutes until I had them all down to half armor from my bombing. My buddy who was also in system brought in his own logistic ship and started healing me from a distance they couldn't reach. Then a guy I barely knew jumped into system with a Vindicator because he overheard the commotion and wanted to help me out. As he appeared, the 20 people noped out of there because they were already too weak to fight. It turned out this squad of 20 people was from Goonswarm, a really big corporation at the time in EVE. This will always be one of my proudest moments in EVE Online.

    This is true payback also I do respect him for staying and taking the defeat
  • I don’t know what I love more about this, the fact that you finished him by smooshing him with the nose of your ship or that you got 400c for it, which won’t even cover the ammo you spent.
  • @AmboXB
    His ship name was “Destined to fail”. Lol

    I remember seeing this video ages & ages ago thinking it looked really complicated but very interesting. Then later on I heard about how there is a player group called the Fuel Rats in this same game who willingly help others in the community. I was sold, I’ll deal with the learning curve and hit the grind. Now I’m a proud owner of a Fed Corvette and Imp Cutter! Thanks YouTube for making this a suggestion video to start my piloting career and thank you again for bring it back so I can say thanks to the CMDR who’s video got me into this game! o7!

    The Attackers name un-blurs for a bit. His name is CMDR Sovapid Happy hunting!
  • @Black_Kakari
    Amazing! The fact that you were clever and quick enough to note his ship, name, weapons and chaff, repair, and for him to still be there!!! And for him to shoot first to confirm his dickhead level, and then for you to win!!!! 😊 Dope as bro. So sick. Proud of ya! Go the conda

    Revenge is best served cold AND ITS VERY COLD IN SPACE.

    This is the video that got me into Elite Dangerous and convinced me to finally buy it. Now I’ve been playing for almost a year and it’s one of my favorite games ever. I’m getting ready to take my Krait MKII out on my first adventure ever far outside the bubble! Good luck out there, CMDR Chalenor

    Seeing as this seems to be a pretty active comments section, if any of you lot are looking for a friendly face to float around space with: I am CMDR Krigherren. I'm fairly active and often take trips just to hang out. I'll even join up in multi-crew just to provide some company. I'm almost certainly not the best of the best, but I will very gladly help anyone who needs it, in whatever ways I am capable. Doesn't matter to me if you're a veteran player with months of play time or if you've gotten into the game just yesterday. I'm not judgmental or elitist about skill-level or ship-setup, so you don't need to worry about being nagged for not knowing exactly what to do and exactly how to do it. I will gladly provide whatever advice I can, if you want it. English is my first language, but it doesn't need to be yours, as long as we can understand one another well enough. I also enjoy taking scarab cruises on Achenar 3, watching a white dwarf sunset and sipping Void Extract Coffee spiked with Lavian Brandy from a Hutton Mug. 26/M/Achenar - Klaxians need not inquire.

    These type of people think they are so fuckin good its good to see them get what they deserve. Honestly. Im glad they are apart of elite dangerous because it adds to the diversity. But its just sad to see them so fucking positive they will kick your ass and you give them a taste of their own medicine <3 Edit: wow thats alot of likes haha. Thanks I guess? Good to see people agree :D
  • Man 3 years later I get this recommended... I need to play more Elite now.

    All these years later, this still makes it way back onto my feed.
