Welcome to HWS @mystic
and sorry to hear about your frustrating experience.
The starter planets should welcome players, not scare them away.
And a PvP starter planet should be exactly that: player vs player in a sense of “Survive”… “Battle Hunger”… “Battle Royale” style.
And if you compare it now to PUBG, Fortnite or whatever… imagine that you land at the beginning and somebody is greeting you after 30 seconds with T3, legendary weapon equipment, then this is obviously wrong.
If I see players spamming “git gud you chose PvP start, go cb:reset if you can’t handle it” but at the same time coming from the Pirate Tutorial planet over or used OCD even, then they failed hard and I show them my version of git gud.
TL;DR: I see if we can disallow OCD usage in a more dynamic way and control who can enter it or not in a better way. It’s not easy though.
