put cargo drones at every gate

#1

Due to the invastion loot nerf, you need far more loot to get the same amount of credits as before.

 

More loot means more trips to cargo drones.

 

Please put cargo drones at every gate to make it more easier, invasion is hard enough at the moment

 

new sugestion:

 

let every ship has it’s own cargo drone that cost 20% of loot, so you don’t have to fly anywhere to find a drone, just press a special button

There are a couple threads on this.

My idea was a drone at every gate that allows players with a license to use them.

 

Then the standard drones already in place for everyone.

And that will kill invasion even further, because pirates like me won’t be able to loot players anymore.

“Is that a pirate player? Oh shoot, I’ve got a blueprint and several million credits! Oh wait. ZHOOP! Ha! I used my personal cargo drone, sucker.”

Yeah, no.

So what are you actually suggesting? Drones at every gate, or some magic button that sends stuff back?

 

I personally think the drone system needs a bit of a rework, but not for the same reason as you.  I do think that there should be more drones (perhaps not in every sector but in most of them anyhow), but that those that are furthest away from the docks, or are in dangerous zones, should cost a higher percentage of the loot.  Then you have the choice: be lazy and pay more, or travel a little to get more of your loot home.  It would make you consider a bit more than just “where is the next drone? oh there it is”.

 

And I agree with SoldiersFortune, a cargo drone on every ship would just be ridiculous.

For the sake of making invasion more productive (in the light of the loot nerf) and comprehensible for NEW PLAYERS (remember those?), I’d agree that  a cargo drone in each sector makes perfect sense.

 

The ‘personal cargo drone’ is already available via the main menu, but it costs a duplicator to return to base.

I had forgotten about that option to return to base.  But yeah, then you have to travel all the way back out again…

Having a cargo drone somwhere on each map could work, but each gate is too much

i’ve suggested this before as well, im not sure what they are waiting for… +1
