Title: Respawn timer - better gear makes You respawn faster.
Post by: DocAN. on October 02, 2012, 10:10:48 pm
Today an idea came to my mind...

- Player armed in CAs will wait 60 sec after death
- Armed in Metals will wait 70 sec
- Leather Armors, 80 sec
- Leather Jackets, 90 sec
- Bluesuits 120 sec

Why? To prevent bluesuit Trolls.

Highly arises the problem of newer players getting pissed off even more, just because of the outrageous timer.

Won't hurt fastreloggers with lots of alts.

Similar to my own suggestion.

I'd also have level modifier.

Maybe a hidden gear-value modifier.  1 second less per 250-500 caps standard item value.

I think it is better than nothing (it will at least try to balance the waves, but not fuly - still who will have more alts will win, but geared ones will count better, than just troll alts).

As Haraldx implied, it would only piss new players.
Other pgm would only alt and won't care.

So, a lot of cons, for possibly no pros...

Beside that, dev already said they will fix ac cap.
There is no need for a new feature, if it is for them...

New players? Didn`t hear about any. Even if they exist they wont hurt with this suggestion.

Its anti bluesuit-troll feature.

It's not honestly fair towards bluesuit-beginners. Better is to make bluesuit strategies harmless by taking out features that make it possible to cause harm without gear.

Besides, true bluesuit trollers got multiple trolls that they can relog to if the first one dies.

As avv said. But maybe, just maybe it could be implemented in TC-towns only. FR chars would still bypass this a bit but beside this it could work.
