Top gunning landing

Post by Alec0124 »

When you're at full speed or near full speed, and you try to dock, your ship crashes into the landing pad destorying the ship and/or leaving debree. This happened to my friend by coincidence and he thinks its the most awesome thing that should be implemented.

Crash

Idk. It seems like miners have it hard enough. Why add onto the pain. However a compromise could be a docking delay so after you press dock you have to wait 5 seconds before you actually enter the ship. So it's not an instant thing. Seems more realistic. Also it would encourage the Navigator to work WITH the miners by being close to them and protecting them from raiders.

a 5s pause delay is slow and pretty lame, by making it "crash" it means players can equip teh repair kit in advance in case they actually need to rush the landing and that way pay the cost, it could take all of 5s to land a topgun and then have to repair the bay, but it would be 5s dynamically spend instead of waiting. Promoting proper piloting seems more fun then forcing it on people. in that vein you could make the entire BC be a point nav with waiting in between. but its not, its a dynamic flight thats fun as hell -Case
