So yea, I haven't been keeping up with the last few updates... a classic case of the meaning of my above post "tldr;"
But anyway, at some point recently pirates became way more aggressive... possibly more so than they ever were. This morning in a span of a minute i was fired on for 80 damage and everywhere i went i was getting shot at relentlessly. I got shot down very quickly today. Since the aggression mode has been reactivated, I think it would be fair to ask that the docking penalty is lowered again to match.
What just prompted these utterings was coming back to the game tonight and then getting shot by a pirate with an EBii for 20 damage, and finding the docking penalty was an absurd 116 seconds (nearly 2 minutes!!) and basically the docking to the station became a 5-10 minute task once missiles and everything else started to happen. Any chance you guys are going to adjust this? :/
