[AP] Pirate revenge strikes?

Post by Eddis » Fri, 25. Jan 13, 02:56

Hi everyone!

I have noticed in my current AP game that whenever I am out capping Galleons in Mercenaries Rift that invariably the pirates will send a galleon to attack my fuel plex in Gunne's Crusade shortly thereafter. More profitsss! :D

Has anyone else noticed a repeating similar behavior in their game where if you do X action, pirates will respond with Y ship in Z sector every time?

I haven't had that happen to me yet. But it is an interesting situation.

Happens every time, huh? :?

Even in X3TC there was a sort of vague cycle to Pirate capital patrols. If you start capping or killing enough Pirate capitals in one Pirate area then they start popping up in another area and the first area goes quiet for a while.

See here and following on for discussion of a vague theory of mine.
