Re: Exiting Capital Ships

Umm... You will either spawn inside and fly it around.... until you suicide or are destroyed, or you spawn in the ships hanger and exit via fighter/bomber.


That's it for now.

Re: Exiting Capital Ships

We may implement escape pods at some point as they were a feature originally planned for our space maps which got cut as we didn't have any need for them in the original set of space battles.  As far as boarding tubes go...I find it unlikely that they would be useful as you can spawn in the smaller cap ships, and enemy troops cannot enter the other side's cap ships, so I can't think of any use besides aesthetics atm.

Re: Exiting Capital Ships

Alright...the best thing i can think of is escape pods. I just dont want to be stuck inside a ship when i spawn in it until i suicide.

Curses, foiled again!

Re: Exiting Capital Ships

Well until we have a proper use for them there won't any escape pods.

Personally I don't like the idea of them at all, until the devs re-work the points system to give players some compensation if the crew bails out before hull destruction. That's pretty cowardly, you should go down with your ship.

I think YOU should go down with ship, and the rest of us can have use escape pods
