Player Features and Ideas Discussion

I propose to implement a "cloak fatigue" to prevent a player from cloaking a ship in 10 systems until someone finally undocks a caps and hotdrop it.

reason : CCP wanted to remove deep safes to avoid this behaviour. This is lame non-game because the cloaky tengu has nothing to fear.


Goal : make cloaky hot drop less of a "let's wait 7 days untill someone gets used to us and finally comes undocks"

so, for this we need to make sure being cloaked in a system does not BOTH prevent you from being killed and allow yo to get kills.
several ideas, each is enough on its own :


1. target and cyno delay increase

Whenever you cloak, you get the usual target reactivation delay and if you fit a cyno, a 5s cloak delay.
The cyno reactivation delay doubles every X minute while cloaked (eg 10minute), and only decreases as you remain in game and not cloaked. It's maxed out at one day.


2. cloaky sig visible

I prefer this one.

The cloaked ship signature is still visbile on the combat probes BUT it's divided by a factor, this factor reduces with fatigue (time cloaked).
So a T1 probe could warp on him if he waits for too long. of course the fatigue would decrease at the same rate while uncloaked it increases while cloaked.

so let's say the base factor is 10. you start cloaked with a sig/10. your fatigue gain is 1/min, and say you get full fatigue after an hour :
your effective sig radius is thus base_radius *(1/10+ fatigue *9/10 /60)

Basically, if you spend X time cloaked, you need to spend X time uncloaked.


3. remove cloak

Just kidding guys, no hate.

How does one cloak his ship in ten systems?
How does one get kills while cloaked?
Shouldn't this be in the AFK cloak thread?

You call others out for having no proof, yet I cannot see anything beyond your opinions posted here. The thread title says one thing, then you shoot your own idea down and propose another one, which has been talked to death.

Wait, wait, wait, so instead of attacking, I dunno, my points, you know, the parts that attack the merits of your proposal, you go after me for 'sarcastic tone.' Well, if that really is your best argument then I guess I really don't need to keep replying, the idea will die by itself.

Because you make sarcasm, thus no point.
Make sarcasm OR make constructive comment, you make your choice.
If you want me to attack your point (if I ever see a reason to do so), don't add useless sarcasm|aggressivity in them.

Marika actually went out of her way to give you constructive criticism to your joke of an idea, but you're just another whiny nullbear that wants to rat in perfect safety and doesn't understand cloaky gameplay at all and thus all you can come up with is a whiny response.

HTFU or play another game.
As to your viewpoint on the matter: http://uberhumor.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/eXM0d1.jpg

Once more, I have no carrier.

stop making sarcasm , stop making assumptions,you should not be proud of showing your stupidity in public.

BTW if you make sarcasm I consider you are mentally challenged and can't explain your point without violence. Thus I don't need to even try to understand it, because let the rage trolls troll.

keep raging more. If you have an idea one day, we can discuss. Meanwhile you are worthly dogs barking.

edit : I know now that there already IS a thread, I should have posted in it. Funny thing those dogs rage for something everybody but them consider to be a problem.

it started well untill you posted your non-sense. Guess what ? posting non-sense doesnot make other posters ideas senseless. Only yours :

I can't imagine how your parents failed you so much. They forgot to slap you once you were too much of a douche. Alcohol ravages …
