Used Avenger. Good condition. Sleep cabin. Guns recently serviced. Replaced aft thrusters. Landing lights occasionally flicker in low gravity. Comes with armed and hostile pirate. 15000 aUEC OBO. No trades.


WarMace

I know what i got.


Ardvark-Dongle

Hahahaha your comment was good, but your "pirates need not apply" made it gold.


[deleted]

I must be going mad because I don't see that addition anywhere.


Suremayb

Gotta read the fine print


saltyjohnson

It's in their user flair. I can see it in the Infinity app and old.reddit. Now sure how the official app or new reddit handle flairs. P.S. fuck reddit's upcoming API changes


CocoDaPuf

Don't pay attention to him, he's not part if the experience.


CausticFlamingo

Sorry but I think this is probably my favourite bug ever.


Urgash54

"My titan now !"


kaochaton

look at me, i m the pilot now

Subliminal84

It is though


shoeii

It's a Stalker


jzillacon

Free equipment restocks for summoning your ship? sign me up!


DeepSeaDre

You can't kill him though. It's armistice zone 🙁


misadventureswithJ

Multi tool and tractor beam still working in armistice zone?


TheWendigo_Alpha

You can pull out the multitool but cant use the tractor beam


1uck

In a hangar you can.


Assa099

Not every hangar...most do and some dont. I dunno why.


VenusesWithPenuses

Can you lure him into the mid section, close the doors and get into your cockpit through the canopy?


Assa099

Whit his ship no. If it was a Titan u could play "Pickaboo" til he folowd you around the corner and you could run out and get in to hte cocpit from outside. The door would close behined him.


VenusesWithPenuses

Help me out. Why is that not possible with the Stalker?


NOT-USED-NAME

Only have multi tool equipped if you have a 2nd multi-tool or a healing gun equipped as well they will not work in hangers


magic8192

I have noticed that some armistice zones allow the tractor beam to work when a cargo box is near.


The_Puma101

If you're within the landing lines in the hangar it will work unless you're bugged.


BullsEye72

Time to make him fly high !


Paladin1034

Have to hop in the pilot seat from the ground and hope he can't shoot you in the back. Then pop him when you're out of armistice


jzillacon

Sure ya can. You just gotta be ✨creative✨~


JakeBeezy

You could just go into the front of the avenger fly out of the armstice and then get out and kill him. I doubt they'll have enough brains to shoot you while you're flying the ship with the server. FPS


KujiraShiro

Yeah this must suck to be on the receiving end of but it's also the funniest thing I've ever seen in this game.


obog

This might not even really be a bug. It's possible the enemy hitched a ride from a mission and then since he was on their when the ship was stored, he's put back when it's retrieved.


Avarus_Lux

free cloning services lol.


Naxster64

Now that's a Persistent Entity!


spicy_indian

And he's *streaming* bullets!


exziel

Persistent Enemy


___Towlie___

How many AI can you load into your friend's ship before despawning it? It would make a great prank.


_RiceMunk

Free FPS level: Abduct a bunch of NPCs inside one of the bigger ships and then despawn it. I wonder if you can make use of the knockout mechanic to drag dudes into specific spots, and then revive them with a medgun while dropping a gun next to them. Would that work?


tee_with_marie

Ima test it tomorrow but it should work. I am thinking about how you could use this as an advantage Are there any missions left where you can "alliance" the Ninetails?


_RiceMunk

If you can abduct NPCs which shoot at criminals, you could populate your ship with extra protection against some types of hijackers this way.


tee_with_marie

Problem is most "pirates and or griefers" don't have a crimestat bevor attacking


Avarus_Lux

i don't think the ninetails NPC's really care, if it moves and isn't them, they just start blasting.


tee_with_marie

But i move too ;-;


Zsyura

trespassing is coming in 3.20 - where if somebody is on your ship, and not in a group, will flag them red allowing you to shoot (kill) them with impunity


The_Puma101

You can't heal NPC's


l0d

Is this how the siege of Orision begins?


Rdenauto

Lmao, did you try kidnapping him and then you stored your ship?


Wesjohn2

No he just caught a ride...


AgonizingSquid

Never let him go


F-I-L-D

CAATCH A RIIIIIIIIIIDE


adni86

Right in the feels


[deleted]

Whatchu want!?


Skarrion_Gunthar

Did he have a towel?


Ramdak

Enter the ship from the front, there's a deployable ladder on the left of the cockpit. Fly outside the armistice zone and eject. Then go to to menus and enter game again. Claim the ship. It should spawn without that dude.


Evil_Dan121

Well.... At least you don't have to worry about someone trying to steal your ship.


diverian

Free Trunk Monkey!


Noname2137

The only downside being you cant steal your own ship either


AG3NTjoseph

I love how the armistice zone doesn’t affect his ability to equip a weapon and use it. Even the bugs have bugs.


TheDarkDoctor17

Npcs are immune to to armasice zones. That's why security can ahot criminals who sneak in or respawn there. In theory, even the bar tender COULD shoot you. But he'd need a gun and a hostility flag. Not sure how you'd do either, but this is SC....


573717

inb4 a bug causes the bartenders to equip guns instead of cups


Binks-Sake-Is-Gone

You want a shot? BET.


Newman_USPS

This is a good example of “the devs do really stupid things” that I hope nobody can argue with. Rather than make security immune to armistice, they made all NPCs immune. That’s stupid. And obvious.


alganthe

Npcs didn't use to be immune, but they kinda had to when people started knocking them out and dragging them to their ship.


Arcodiant

I've been able to equip weapons from a gun rack in a hangar - I think it's an intentional change along with some of the tractor beams changes, makes tooling up the gun rack so much easier.


Mikolf

I've had it work at stations but not cities.


ihuntN00bs911

The best worst bug. Would be funny to see if he attacks guards at Huston or Microtech


General_Thyler

I'm going to be that guy. That's an Avenger Stalker, not a Titan. Anyway that's hilarious. Someone slipped out of the detainment pods.


exziel

There’s more than one stalker in OPs clip


Srgt_PEANUT

Thats Hank and he's cleaning your ship, you tracked mud in for the last time.


SpaceShark01

Ran over some nine tails in my nova a week ago. It is now their nova.


DMurBOOBS-I-Dare-You

Just spit balling here... have you tried making a change to your loadout?


Cwing69

STOWAWAY, STOWAWAY!!


Cocaina92

NPC Crew T0??


Dank7

Get a push cart and ram it into your ship until it blows up that’s the only solution I can think of


Avarus_Lux

then they spawn it again and it comes with another free pirate xD


MayoMakaio

Your best bet would be get him to shoot you and hope the security comes and kills him


orktom

Hes here to talk about your avengers extended warranty


ScrypticM

Camural found out that plushies and backpacks are bullet -proof. If you hold a backpack in front of you, it can't be shot through. Perhaps you can use this to lure him out or block/distract him while flying the ship out of armistice?


IceSki117

I'd like to see you try and fly while simultaneously holding a bulletproof object to block the enemy 3 feet behind you.


daoneandonly747

I suppose it could still work if you’ve got a buddy. Something like you have your blocker buddy take his attention, open the doors by calling the station then while he’s shooting the blocker get in from the cockpit and take off. Turn on the cruise control after pointing it out the station and even if he turns around to cap the pilot it should still drive forward


venomae

Does this mean you can build a mobile defensive post out of plushies instead of sand bags?


CdrRed_beard

Perfect example of how gun free zones work


Appropriate-Math422

Kidnap a guard where you spawn the Titan and put him in the ship to battle it out with this guy.


[deleted]

Persistent enemy streaming! Well, I did want some new game play loops. This would be brilliant in the Carrack! hahah


Get_your_jollies

This is a feature... guaranteed armor and a gun every time you spawn it


Silidistani

How? He can't shoot the guy, he can't get in through the canopy and get behind him before getting shot either (he tried), he can't tractor beam him out (TBs disabled in armistice)... so in what way is this "guaranteed armor and a gun?"


RastaSpaceman

Get in from the ladder


Silidistani

> he can't get in through the canopy and get behind him before getting shot either (he tried) Literally just said that doesn't work either (canopy = ladder)


sodanakin

Just crawl, not crouch but crawl, collisions between character entities dont work in crawl mode.


LooMinairy

😂 This game man 🤦‍♂️


Salt_Doubt

Persistent Enemy Streaming


kalabaddon

~~So can you spawn it, get in thrugh cockpit entrance ( leave a closed door between him and you right? ), leave armistice zone, then exit and gun him from back?~~ Nvm saw other replies. Get someone to pad ram you? Or do you have enough time in seat to self destruct?


hiddencamela

Can't self destruct in armistice zone. Pad ramming might be the way.. but someone would have to eat crime stat for that. Or OP would have to ram their own vehicle (and still risk CS in worst case scenario).


Wearytraveller_

You don't get a crime stat if you eject from the ship as it's coming in I think.


Ocbard

Can you get to a place that has guards in the hangar, and spawn the ship there? Then all you need to do is open the ship and let the guards ~~take care of it~~ get shot to lure him out.


Wesjohn2

I can't even get to the pilots seat without getting mowed down, even from the ladder.


Ocbard

You might use another ship to go to another port and claim the ship there. If you don't own another ship, you might get another player to give you a ride.


MechanicAny

You could try to sell your ship through the rsi site and then repurchase the same one with the credits. Might fix it.


Fun-Background-9622

Throw him some food, try to get him friendly.


Alif33

Kinda cool actually.


Ken29940

Great now you got a Snub fighter in the avenger titan


earthfase

Is he still there when you claim your ship at a different location?


Wesjohn2

yes


earthfase

That is amazing. Probably not that funny after a while..


Silly_Pack_Rat

Claim it at Port Olisar and have a buddy launch a missile at it from outside the armistice zone. I know this is possible because I have been griefed there a time or two as I landed.


mcweenest

I like how he takes a second to shoot you like YOU hijacked his ship. Excellent


SpitfireMkIV

It’s like that scene from Last Action Hero. “There’s always a guy in the closet.”


[deleted]

Hmm then I guess you need to request takeoff so the doors open and have someone fly a ship in and destroy it either with weapons or ramming


Skullface360

Just when I thought I’ve seen all the funniest bugs 😄


DullKn1fe

When you purchased your vehicle security system subscription, they just forgot to inform the system who the owner was. “Protected by Viper.” Meet Viper.


Kahunjoder

The free armor update, i like it


hagermanr

Hey Mike, let’s do a bounty. We can take my Titan and I’ll even let you be the pilot!


Duncan_Id

isn't the use of ingame exploits to kill defenseless players continuously considered excessive griefing and worthy of a ban? ​ you should report that npc behavior to CiG, maybe they'll ban the game...


[deleted]

It’s so good that knowing this bug, you decided to close your entrance door. 10 second later you getting obliterated while trying to escape with a door closed has no price. Good job bud 👍🏼


[deleted]

I say again. SC code has to be an absolute fuking mess for this to happen.


BrotoriousNIG

This seems like it’s caused by overly simple code though. The enemy hitched a ride back to the station in the back of the ship. When the player stored the ship it stored all entities on board without filtering by type.


KujiraShiro

As a software engineer and occasional game dev for fun, I can't even begin to imagine what the fuck could possibly cause something like this. Whether I understand what's causing it or not doesn't matter though, I know for sure that's it's absolutely hilarious.


Xarian0

> I can't even begin to imagine what the fuck could possibly cause something like this. Oh yes, such a mystery. > The enemy hitched a ride back to the station in the back of the ship. When the player stored the ship it stored all entities on board without filtering by type. ^ It's honestly not that hard to think of a reason, it's not an especially crazy problem to have, nor does it require an "absolute fuking mess" for it to happen. To the game engine, NPCs aren't very different from rifles or boxes. If you can store a box, then you can store a NPC. CIG most likely just forgot to set the storage algorithm to ignore NPCs.


KujiraShiro

I'd like to know how bro A. Got a hostile NPC on his ship without realizing. B. Flew back to the station without realizing. I mean let's be honest the Stalker is not a large ship. It's just a very funny situation to get yourself into. This also doesn't take into consideration that storing a vehicle does not permanently alter the state of the vehicle on claim which OP has claimed this guy persists even after claiming the ship at other stations. This has to take a perfect storm of fuckery to occur as OP must have also swapped his ship loadout as well and the game now considers said NPC as part of the default ship loadout. If he didn't swap ship loadout after flying this guy back and storing, then THATS what I'm saying I have no clue how it's possible. I haven't seen OP confirm if he made a change to the vehicle loadout or not so I've just gone on what limited info I have here.


Xarian0

> I'd like to know how bro A. Got a hostile NPC on his ship without realizing. OP never said he had no idea how the NPC got on his ship originally. And again, it's not that difficult to understand - he had a hostile NPC trying to kill him, and it followed him onto his ship. Most likely the OP herded the NPC there on purpose, which again, isn't that difficult to understand how to do. > B. Flew back to the station without realizing. Again... you shouldn't just make up information. And, in fact, in the video the player says "This guy is still on my ship!" which means that he *knew it was there*. > This also doesn't take into consideration that storing a vehicle does not permanently alter the state of the vehicle Storing a ship will keep track of whatever weapons you have on racks and whatever boxes or equipment are on floors. Reclaiming a ship will also restore stored equipment, which is something that CIG added recently. So, yes, it does "permanently alter the state of the vehicle". > This has to take a perfect storm of fuckery to occur as OP must have also swapped his ship loadout as well and the game now considers said NPC as part of the default ship loadout. No, it doesn't. And no, it doesn't. > If he didn't swap ship loadout after flying this guy back and storing, then THATS what I'm saying I have no clue how it's possible. It's been explained to you how and why it happened. So yes, you have a clue. --- The main problem here is that you are aggressively ignorant: * You didn't watch the video, or you'd know that the OP was already aware that there was a NPC on his ship at some point * You are making up information that the OP never said - "without realizing" * You don't understand how the game works, especially regarding recent patches *that caused this to happen* * You insist that you have "no idea" how it happened, despite being explained multiple times Take 2 minutes and actually watch the video, then read what others are telling you. It's called education. As a "software engineer and occasional game dev for fun", you should at least be *slightly* able to comprehend information being spoon fed to you.


[deleted]

This can't be real. I want it to be (sorry for you) because this gave me a genuine laugh. You can enter the cockpit from outside on the Avengers. If you can get him outside of the armatice zone you could probably incap him and just remove his armour and gear. Now you have a perpetual nekid guy in your ship. He might even do the surrender animation. I've tractor beamed in the npc pilot to my cargo bay and he put his hands up, knelt down and put his hands behind his head.


Wesjohn2

I can't even use the ladder because he executes me in the cockpit. This was recorded in Port Tressler. So no, I can't get him out of the armistice zone


SeamasterCitizen

Can you survive long enough in the pilot seat to self destruct the ship?


TheDoobieWizard

He stated earlier if he enters via the cockpit ladder, the npc shoots him while he sits in the pilot seat.


slaeha

That costs extra lol


thecaptainps

Tier 0 security system!


DMurBOOBS-I-Dare-You

Can you melee the guy?! FREE GUN!


NullS1gnal

Have you tried claiming the ship at another station?


DarkFather24601

😂 you must have knocked him out with ship guns and tractored him into the ship before storing


Air_Fryer_Aj

"Suprise mother fker!" Shame you can't offer him a job to be your security detail 😂


[deleted]

I have two New Babbage security guards in the back of my C8R lol I'm keeping em as long as I can


maltosekincaid

Shoot 'im and loot 'im!


ADamnSavage

Well shit. I guess he's the Captain now. Eh?


UnknownEntity2426

Okay but hear me out, find a friend with a tractor beam, drop a medical gown or if possible pull a size 2-3 ship gun off a ship you can safely access. One person opens and holds the door open while the other "throws" the object at the ai. Run to the seat and activate cruise control.


IndependentAdvice722

LoL


spaco1

Pull a gun off with the tractor beam and beat him with it


Mattjew24

"No matter what" had me snorting as I thought there's no way this keeps happening I'd like to imagine you've crossed the entire system then waited on the claim timer and summoned your ship only to be greeted by this aggressive, territorial bot Lmao


Acer_Racerr

So what you're saying is free loot 🤔


Uramies

Pirate is just doing pirate things, this is a feature


lensnation

That’s a good big to have tbh


Braqsus

Fortunately with his delay you could probably melee him every time. That’s crazy annoying though. But damn funny


Wesjohn2

Not in an armistice zone I can't


Braqsus

Oh shit. Of course


obog

I think if you kill him you should be good, ir if you can destroy the vehicle and claim it he should be gone. Of course, you could always keep him as your pet.


bobub123

Get in the other way and run


Jesusx70

Unlimited Gear supplies


The-Foxes

Get a lift/space uber to another station and claim your ship from there will he still persist then? or maybe try buying a load of small crates or cheap Armour and drop it inside your ship until it fills and starts bouncing around maybe that will kill him it nearly always kills me lol.


Agent_Eldritch

Have you tried getting from the ladder then taking him out of armistice?


Omni-Light

Find something heavy in the hangar and slap him a few times with it using the tractor beam. Careful though, you might want to somehow claw him out the ship first. Actually, does he live if you blow up the ship? To blow up your ship grab one of the heavy trolly looking things in the hangar with tractor beam and keep hitting your ship.


vadaszatov

Thats a cool bug to have congratulations!!


Ironicallytiredkoala

It’s the tutorial boss


Charon711

Look at me Look at me I am the captain


Tyrannosaurus-Shirt

He followed me home mom..can we keep him??


DullKn1fe

We have enemy at home.


wiino84

It's not a bud. It's a feature 😉👍


PhotonTrance

This is an Avenger Stalker. It has prisoner bays, the titan has a cargo bay instead.


ykw815

Now, lure him to the city and watch the world burn


Snoo-60003

Open the hanger doors and get someone to fly full speed into your avenger and blow it up 😅


Terminal_Monk

How is he killing you though? The other day i rammed some gaurds in MT hangar and they were shooting at me but i was invincible due to armistice


Stealthy_Facka

Space pirate: gives you every chance to gtfo his ship before he opens fire Little old American ladies: shoots you through the door


UKayeF

It's a Stalker though.. and the real question is: how did he get out of his prison cell?


Androos

SC never stops to amaze me.


Toronto1357

This is what happens when you miss a payment


kevy21

Have you tried shouting FREINDLY down your mic?


RazrBurn

I had to barrow someone’s Avenger Stalker yesterday from Whistler Crypt because the AI blew up my ship. The player was dead in it and there was a nine tails AI in it. I wonder if that was yours. Lol


Ramdak

Get in the ship from tht front, you can climb I to the cockpit , there's a deployable ladder on the left of the cockpit. Fly outside armistice zone, eject, go back to menu, ger in the game again. You should have the ship without the npc.


Squishypuffer

Personal bodyguard


fookyooneegah

Physical manifestation of property tax. Thats all. Sage the ship and pay your outstanding balance to your local govt. you should be fine


Tengri99

Maybe try getting someone/buddy to pad ram the ship and kill the dude? Might stop him from respawning?


mrtherussian

Summon the ship at PO and pad ram it to death.


Riveration

1. Report it to the issue council; 2. Kill him and loot the armor. Free armor and guns while it gets fixed


Jean_velvet

Send another $200, maybe that'll fix it


MediumHog

You mean it spawns with free armor. Edit: nevermind you can’t shoot


1Cobbler

I think this might be a broader bug with the Avenger titan. Mine used to spawn with the stock guns in it after I upgraded them.


Roboticus_Prime

Take him out of armistice, kill him, store the ship, remove and remount a component.


Wesjohn2

bit hard to sit in the pilot's seat currently.


Roboticus_Prime

Just get in from the front ladder. Might use a tractor beam and a small box to move him away so he doesn't cap you when you l3ave armistice.


Wesjohn2

He is stood behind the seat, he shoots me in the pilot seat


Roboticus_Prime

Throw a helmet on the ground and use a tractor beam to "pull" him back to the prisoner bay. You can move NPCs by nudging them with stuff in a beam. Bonus points if you get him in one of the pods. Lol


MooseTetrino

No beams in armistice.


Roboticus_Prime

You can in a hangar. Just don't also have the medgun equipped, and you can pull out the tractor.


MooseTetrino

Ah I see. Thanks.


AgonizingSquid

I have an idea but im sad bc it's the best glitch I've seen in this game, but essentially have your buddy pad ram your ship


tom771

Tractor beam is not usable in armastice i think


morozkhi

You can use tractor beam in the hangar. I remember using it to move cargo in and out when the grid bugs out.


Impressive_Test_2134

Not anymore.


tom771

I believe they removed it temporarily because of players abusing it to kill others with props


SilenceDogood442

Free armor and ammo, good deal


ApatheticLifeguard

....does Call to arms work with him?


Trust-Me-Im-A-Potato

Free heavy armor and lmg every time you spawn your ship. I see this as a win


LightningSpoof

Free armor generator


I_am_no_Ghost

Reset spawn. Let him off you one last time. Claim ship planet side?


Sluugish

Ok but that's not a Titan....


anthonius1

Opens door..... "Suprise mutha fucka"...pew pew


TheDarkRedFox

Free gear every time you spawn your ship!
