when i push the self destruct button, I shouldnt have to wait 2 minutes to die. It should be more like 20 seconds with a female computer voice conting down. I should die horribly and not be ejected in pod but vaporized and wake up as a clone. No insurance is paid and no wreck or modules left for anybody to slavage.

good point...Ignore my whinage. I am just being a sissy since i was an idiot and flew into a carrier babystitting some domis at a camp. Right when i got scramed it was like "well Im @$#^%@ toast" Wanted to deny them the satisfaction and go all hari-kari samurai style and push the self destruct button. Ignore my crying and lets go smash the "nerf the HIC" threads

Edited by: Kessiaan on 22/11/2007 19:46:43 Sometimes when I'm in a hurry or don't want to embark on an epic gauntlet run across 30+ hostile 0.0 systems, I'll self-destruct my pod.
It only hurts for a moment. Much less painful than the sheer tedium of trying to grind up an 8.0 standing with some NPC corp. ----- My in Eve Profile |

Looking at the snake-prices today... Not convinced.

I think that Self-destruct should be also be the utterly last weapon a pilot can use. If I ever blow up my tempest, I want the enemies around me to get hurt. _____________________________ Entering the Intergalactic Summit forum is like walking into a Startrek convention; All you'll see are a bunch of nerds and you'll go "WTF?" |

Edited by: madaluap on 22/11/2007 23:19:40 Your last idea wasnt very smart from a balance point of view. This thread is no exception. If you die, you did something wrong, pay the toll. You probably didnt: check local, map or scanner. You probably didnt scan the gate or used a ship that was too expensive/slow for you to fly or you werent expirienced in it. Or maybe you were just plain dumb/lazy/drunk. (everyone sometimes dies of pure lazyness/dumbness/drunkeness.)
If a guy tries kills you, fight back. You lose?: type 'GF' (good fight) in local and thats it. If you cannot fight back, try to flee. If that doesnt work, just die and get over it.
Allthough you did mention "die horrible". Just an idea: If you selfdestruct and your ship + pod instapops, the SP transportation to the new clone will go partly wrong. Lets say you lose between 1-5% of your SP. The killers dont get loot, the shipkillmail and podkillmail, but you have to give something up in reverse.
People that really hate getting killed and those who dont want the modules on the ship to fall in the killerhands will do this. Not some random guy typing LOLOLOL in local and pressing selfdestruct, just to screw other people over. It would mean that pvp is something you only lose money on, thats not the way it should be. High risk, high reward. _________________________________________________ Breetime

Edited by: Polcor Rodal on 23/11/2007 09:40:50 It was 30 seconds in former times. Many people used it as a tactical option to deny the attacker the killmail and - since selfdestruct, destroy all fitted modules, - you could even deny the loot to the attacker.
Even for a semi-experienced player it is easy to determine when he reaches the "point of no return" and selfdestruct his ship and warp away, leaving nothing to loot for the enemy.
Lots of "pirates" complained about and it was changed to 2 min.
If in danger, or in doubt, run in cricles, scream and shout |
