' Wrote:Well, this can be used for pure RP, now we have _carriers_ but they work only like another bs.
Of course it could.
Imagine a carrier launching wing of fighters in response to situation. ITd save the need to fly around in bunches, just have the single ship fly fly by!
Think about it for a second.
What difference would there be flying around inside a carrier (docked) than flying alongside the Carrier?
Also remember that Carrier's are not frontline ships. You don't go flying straight into a battle with enemy capital ships while piloting a carrier. You sit back and launch your fighters/bombers from afar and are essentially a mobile base.
None of the above require any player to be docked on the carrier, it can easily be done right now. All you do is fly a fighter into a system and tada, it's done.
If you can list a few benefits to this, as opposed to the con of adding more workload onto Cannon, then maybe it could be considered again.
Bugged and ready to be abused. Will create a lot of Tears about People breaking Rules, about People being Sanctioned and about People who lost some Credits, because they got bugged.
"Who is it doing this synthetic type of alpha beta psychedelic funkin'?"
dont make sense at RP server... and (what I have already written in other thread) it interrupts RP!!! if you undock and you are docked at the carrier.... you first undock at your last base... fly out... and after the undock video you beamed up to the carriers position... that sucks in rp if anyone is at the station you undock...
and one more thing I've already written in the other thread:
-the name of the command is /dock ... yes... but better will be:
/BeamMeUpToMyCapshipAfterDockingSequence
and abuse... hmm dont know...
the only funny abuse of /dock i know is stoping in front of a planet and fly the cap with the downside as near as possible to the planet...
everyone who is docked at your carrier and undocks comes out and BOOOOM!!! is dead cause he beamed out IN the planet
(was on HHC server cause you beamed out under your docked Battleship)
"Outcast: Oh look a zephyr, lets kill it"
"Zephyr: (group) here they come boys"
"Zephyr: (group) gogogogo"
"Outcast: HELL ITS LIKE 40 people there"
erhm...
you know you have to be docked anywhere in the system when you wanna dock at your cap?
(ok flhook can you dock automaticly at the nearest base but... read the whole post)
and one more thing... idea of abuse... works on hhc... cause you dont have to dock in the system where you are to dock at you cap...
Story:
you and a carrier (in group) jump in a system... this system is 100% hostile... every base, every npc... and so on
okaaahy... youre docked at the carrier... you die... you go out of the server...
4 hours later you log in... and SURPRISE!!! now you are docked on the nearest base (from the position you died)...
end of the Story...
this is a great way to (i.E.) dock at crete as a outcast^^
or at manhatten if you are a rogue... or anything like that...
I think you totally misunderstood how it works.
Ive seen it in action and it works just fine.
First if you die, you respawn on your last base you could dock on, not nearest. Also I have seen undocking. It undocked me close to the BS, not jump over from nearest base.
It works and it works fine. Its just people here are by nature looking for a way to abuse things in game to gain advantage and spoil everything. So for fail of yours, we shall not have useful RP thing here. GREAT
Ive seen it in action too dude... ive played for years on a server with this feature (HHC)... yes its really a fine thing... but... in my opinion not for disco RP...
