Dear CCP;

Any chance we could have a 'Launch For Corp' option for Mobile Tractor Units so corpmates (or alts) can retrieve MTUs?

t'would be kinda handy.

We had this a while ago and the general consensus was that everyone else wanted it too.

I don't object.

Personally the whole MTU thing was a huge mistake and if it is going to be changed it needs to be removed from the game.

One wonders though, if someone in your corp is going to go around collecting all the MTU's the rest of you drop why not put that player in a Noctis, problem solved and no changes to the game needed.

If the person scooping them is dedicated salvager, then have the salvager drop them with a cheap t1 frigate. The t1 exploration frigates work wonderfully for this, as they have a large enough hold to carry several MTUs at once without expanders. Warp in, drop MTU, GTFO before aggro switches. You usually will have time to bookmark it, but corpmates can do that if you're unlucky. Once all MTUs are deployed, switch back to noctis and go nuts.

If the person scooping them is not dedicated salvager, then they get to remain on grid to scoop.

It makes no difference if it's launched for an individual or a corp really, as the loss mail I get when I blow it up is the same either way

Dear CCP if were getting this feature delay on autolooting player wrecks on top of the MTU should be at least 2-3 server ticks.
I don't need more of this 8m 50% loot denial bullshit.

EvE-Mail me if you need anything.

Got to love the irony of this statement. When emergent game play works to give you killers an advantage then everything is right with EvE. When that emergent game play works to rob you killers of loot you think you deserve simply because "I won" then it is bad for the game and needs to be removed.

Looks to me like you are simply being out thought and out played and that makes you angry, well to bad for you. Obviously they are smart enough to figure out how to make the mechanics work for them, are you smart enough to figure out how to make them work for you? Seems like this is a battle of brain cells and based on your post here it is obvious the other side is winning at the moment so you want CCP to solve it for you.
