Poll:Ammo loss

Post by Burn »

A feature has been introduced wich enables it to loose all your ammo (torps raks cm) after you get shot down/killed.

I want to see what players think about this and if they want the "Ammo loss feature after death"

Only explanation i could make up is that it was introduce to incourage pirates to attack other fighters( non trader) for looting their ammo
Or it was introduced to discourage mass spam bots with raks and torpedo slots only
Perhaps a staff member can enlighten us...

Question is:Do you want the "Ammo loss feature after death"

Yes or No

Comments are as always appreciated.

No

I prefer not to have to replemish my ammo Even after getting downed by the npc's,

Or thrusters buning out or even after commiting suicide.

no, for me it tends to lag a bit whenever someone in mass pvp starts picking up loot, and npcs are amassing around loot areas generating more lag


*edit
imo that feature is introduced so people should spend their money, at least forcing them to, but you should boost up price for CMs if you want players to spend their enormous quantities of money, and forcing them to earn it by trading.

Turning off player looting will kill off cargo piracy (though there's hardly any done). It's also more realistic if you lose unmounted equipment after death, but it still shows up in space.
Currently, there's no way to turn off ammo dropping only.

Yeah but each time you do that it costs you "some" credits  :)  Sunslayer torps and Cannonball missiles aren t quite cheap aren't they?

A money whipe for a fresh start might have helped better.

Sorry, but you have to work for it. You're money is not infinity anyway, is it? Besides you dont have to buy a full load. Or have to use ammo at all. Work for it. In the real life nothing is free as well. And have to work to earn the money. Do the same here...

Voted NO. Not because it cost me more money but because there is too much junk around in big and long battles. It makes my comp freezing and it is even worse when someone is frequently beaming everything. I do thing that this affects lag too but im not sure about it...

I think for new players is it hard when they loose all their money/ammo. The most of us, have made enough money to affort it. But as new guy, it could be really hard and a reason to search another server.
