Free Look After Death

Instead of insta-porting back to the pilots home station, a pilot that just ejected could stick around in a sort of "free look" mode to keep track of the action for a few seconds, call it 10 or 15.

Some of you may be against it because it basically gives the other side the advantage of having one of their pilots using a pseudo-"omniview" to call out targets until he gets auto-ported out.

Re: Free Look After Death

I think you should have to actually travel back to the station in the pod however long that takes. Using hyper drive of course. Make death mean something.

IIFC, you could do that in Planetside.
People would rush into a room, get smoked, and then relay the enemy's squad makeup back to his buddies.

As long as there isn't too long of a timer on it though, it would be really cool.

But you shouldn't be able to hang around long enough to mark which roid the ambushers return to after the fight. Or which gate they depart by.

10-15 seconds would be cool.

I say the pod ride should actually be a "ride"

Right...people would set up camp alongside the Arkans Cloud to Outpost pathway just to watch me zipping along helplessly again in my pod. Probably Macro some friendly Hail Macro emphasizing perseverance or some crap like that.
