In the beta game, I decided to have a crack at Audi(Big). I managed to take a couple of sectors without any worrys as they were below level 300.
I then moved on to another sector, attempted to cloak in with a level 360+ Excel, showed about 25mill F/T and I got creamed, next thing I am back at Sol on a little Columbo.
Very strange until I checked the rankings and saw that I was now good while Audi was evil. I presume that I was wasted because of the new settings.
And on top of that Audi, even though he is nearly 5 times my score was able to take back those sectors with no bounty.
Ouch
So heads up to all, watch out for the extra bites that evil and good now can provide.
