Killed by unity patrol

(1/10) > >>

Jorhan Stahl:
I Wasn't aware that they shot on sight. Could someone help me and tell me if I did anything wrong?
I am still rather new, so the only reputation I have is a little with Vault City and a little with NCR, both positive. I was walking back from the NCR where I encountered a Unity patrol. They said "don't try anything funny" RIGHT as they fired their missile launchers at me. This is has never happened before. I didn't have a weapon equipped, and have never hit any members of the unity, not even by accident with burst fire from my tommy gun.
The only thing I can think of was I happened upon some of them fighting another player. He killed them, I just put my gun away and ran before I got shot by him or the unity and they ignored me in that encounter. could that have been it?

Or do they actually shoot on sight or fire at random?

Kelin:
Welcome to the world of FOnline where exploits are fixed the way you seen. What you've experienced was standing within the forbidden zone of the Unity patrol. Its purpose is to eliminate thieves who try to steal from Unity, BoS or Enclave. Next time just stand more than 5 hexes away from them and you'll be ok.

Jorhan Stahl:
Ahhhh ok. Just wanted to be sure is all. I have 8 perception and cautious nature, so I shouldn't have been spawned in the safe zone anyway, but oh well.. Only lost my armour and a sawn off shotgun.

Trokanis:
Yeah no matter your Perception and bonus perks there is always a Slim chance you will spawn on top of a group, and almost all of the groups with good stuff don't like that.  Like it was stated above if it can be exploited or abused, it will be, and then sometime later people have to figure out how to fix it.

JovankaB:
Probably if NPCs are not going to be hostile you should always spawn at some distance from them.
Encounter code is quite a mess though, wouldn't hope for any quick fixes here.
