Ok, might have been raised before, but I can't find a search facility in the forum.
How about distress beacons?
will make 0.1 - 0.4 work better, at the moment they might as well be 0.0 as Concord do not actively patrol those systems. Would also bring the systems more in line in that 0.4 can sometimes be more dangerous than 0.0, which is where the really dangerous pirates should be.
i.e.: a low slot module, upon activation (as long as you are under attack in 0.1-0.4 but named versions could have auto activation) will alert Concord and bring them to your aid.
As concord will have to scramble and jump, response times would be sizably longer than in 0.5, and would increase the further to got to 0.1
In response pirates could have transmition jammers, that would jam the distress beacons transmitions, opening up a signal strength battle.
Improper distress use could result in fines?
Note: I'm not anti-pirate, I think this would add to the tension of a battle, making it a race against time for the pirate and also adding a battle of signal to the mix. Also this would add to the role-play aspects: i.e. in 0.1 with a long wait for aid, would you pay the ransom ? or try and keep him talking

I don't think that would be what the designers intended.

not to bad idea imo..
maybe make it so that concord comes to aid fast but maybe one or 2 ship types and a total of 2 ships like
a scrambling concord frig and depending on the situation (if that's possible to detect) a bs or cruiser assisted by that frig..
Then the sniper(s) have to give more thought to the concord team and have to run or maybe engage the concord so that the "victim" has a change of running... ------- Co-ceo |

ok how about making faster response for having higher sec status, make all that rat killing worth something.
After all the fine upstanding citizens should expect better response.... police answer calls alot faster in Beverly Hills than in the Valley.....
