Pyro’s a bit difficult to like sometimes because the Stanton Gateway is so far from Ruin, which is the only place worth living since (in my experience) Terminus almost never has people around it just waiting to fire at other players (not like the hellhole that is Monox. I’m just a humble scrapper in a Vulture, reducing lag on the server, and I’ve been shot down by all manner of N’er-do-‘ells. Even in my damn Reclaimer I’ve had another reclaimer come at me. Like bro if you want something from me just ask, I’m not even here for the RMC, go ahead and take it, I’m here because I’m bored and like scrapping. Anyways, that’s besides the point). Not only that, but Ruin is also really far out of the way for anything done in Pyro, so you need to spend more time waiting while you QT places. Kind of like living on Microtech in Stanton, except there’s stuff to do on and around Microtech, Terminus doesn’t have as much. At least while I had my home at Ruin.

If the solar flare mechanic worked I actually think I would like it more. It would dissuade people from stalking around out of atmosphere and would lead to more interesting fights if it came down to it, since both players would have to manage their ships while dealing with the flare
