Sad Has happened twice this month...

I shot a flashing-yellow player with "suspect" status, only to immediately be marked with criminal status and gunned down by CONCORD. The game seemed to think they were innocent.

Anyone else have this problem?

Sounds like someone had their safety set red in Highsec when they weren't planning to Gank.

Suspects can be attacked anywhere.

More likely it was lag at the end of the suspect timer, so on the server the guy was no longer suspect, but on the OP client it still was.

Never had the problem myself, but this isnt the first time its been discussed.

The safety dance:

We can shoot if we want to, we shoot anytime at all, but if your safety ain't green, your conscience act isn't clean and you're no friend of mine.

We can shoot if we want to, we shoot anytime at all, but if your safety is yellow, and you're not a good fellow, we will love to hear your whine.

We can shoot if we want to, we shoot anytime at all, but if your safety is red, then everyone will be dead, including your ship and mine!

Or something...

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships

Perhaps it was an issue with your overview setup?

It's not an exploit per-say, just a cheap tactic thats common in trade hubs, they undock seconds before their flag wears off in hopes someone will shoot them then have no assistance, or shoot them just after the flag ends.

I think its a overview bug.

I got concorded shooting a flashy red (criminal) ina 0.6 but where I know and accept ccp will only send a blanket "the logs show nothing" response to ANY petition made I thought F it and didn't bother reporting.

Overview is ****** up right now
