New materialize thing part 1 PLEASE READ

[HyDroxYl]

The thing i mean is half a rant, half a suggestion so ill make 2 different topics of it. This is the part 1, the rant part.
The new update came with a new option, the mat urself option. This may be good, if you grind and die by accident. But ITS NOT in every other contest. Last day ive seen 20 ppl pvping 8-9 and the 20 just have lost because the 8-9 ppl kept rematting themselves, because they all had millions e. This is not absolutely fair i think. I know its not present in cqs, but what about normal pvps?? im always scared of pvping a guy who buys e, because if i pod him he just materializes himself and kill me while im on cooldown. I DO know you SS wanna make more money but this is NOT the right way to do it. This new mat urself thing has unbalanced the game very bad. Before ppl who put money in this game had some advantages, now they just do what they want .
So i have to make a suggestion, which youll find here:

hey mate, i thought the same, but i got told by delloda that nomater how much you have it still takes 75% off your e, so a player can do it once at the most. so if you have 1mill, it will take 750k from your e, and if i came to that disision, i would go to hanger.

I agree, especially when the bounty system comes out, you kill a pirate, who then mats himself after 10 seconds and kills you and takes your bounty from you. Make the cooldown 30 seconds, a minute or so, but not 10 seconds. Also makes the engineer somewhat redundant and matches relying on your wallet size not skill.

Actually the 1st self mat is fairly quick. The subsequent 1's will take longer to initiate each time

 

[Ahsoka]

Why not make it 45 seconds cause i agree the new insta mat has unbalanced the game by alot but it also takes to much e to use so i still perfer to be matted by an engi

srry to bother but isn't it the 75% of ur max cap?

 

[DivineWind]

I agree Hydro and Bill. Perhaps it is possible to disable the mat in PM. Otherwise it makes the new PM mode rather redundant.

 

[Adrana]

When I mat myself it costs 4000 E, many times I would rather go to hangar, cause even hyper jumping back it will still use less E.

Don't forget, with rematting themselves in eg pvp, it doesn't heal, so when they are doing that, they are in vulnerable state till they heal themselves. If you fear they'll be back fast and attack you while you cool-down, then attack immediately before they have the chance of healing when they have matted, and you will have a kill and a pod at front of you again. lol

i did that to a MST-FF1 which was fun, baring in mind i was using AM Extinctor Rockets ^^

 

[HyDroxYl]

That MAY be a solution Adrana, but this new materialize in pm stuff isnt something we should find the solution of, it simply has to change. I thought the new updates are made to make the game nicer to play, not to put things we have to think of how to live with.

 

[Delloda]

It is 75% of your max cap. If your cap is 10,000 e then each res will take 7,500 e.

There is definitely room for improvement, as will all new features. You have adapt your play style in incorporate new features. If you are stuck in your old ways, you will always lose to adaptable players.

I suggest once you pvp and kill some one, you afterburner away to for your items to be restored. I though everyone would have thought of that?!? If ppl res themselves, a rocket and a blaster fire is usually is enough to dispatch them again. Res killing, i love it!

 

[CommanderCody]

People can mat themselves now?! When did this happen? I think it should be only Anti-Mantis Re Mat cuss otherwise folks with lots of e will always win fights unless there is a death limit they exceed before the other team.

 

[BucaneerBill]

What if you just used your afterburner chasing him down..he will mat with it ready and repair and if he's a stun then good luck to you. Its simple to hit repair straight away after a mat then theirs a good chance not even a storm will pod you.

 

[godman]

if you remat you usaly win whatever ship your in because others have still got cooldown usaly lol maybe stun survive

 

[Galm]

I actually found this to be a pretty good feature if you ask me. For instance....i got podded by two players, but i ended up getting one players health down to about 5 %. So when i podded i hit the rematerialize button and shot a rocket at the hurt player and abed away before the other person coul shoot me. So its kinda good and its kinda bad because of the fact that people can sometimes rematerialize a few times more then others.

all you just said is proving the point of the topic

Its not so bad for pvp as even without ab you get just about enough time to get out of combat situation and go orbit.
But in a group fight its completely altered the balance and has ruined the fun in group fights Im at the point were I feel like not bothering fighting anymore because the people with the memberships and who buy e are just always going to win because once they mat and get repair on you have no chance and because you have already used your own repair you will always loose.

I do think its a good feature but think its abilities need to reduced. It would be a much better function if it forced you to turn PM off in order to self mat as this would make it alot fairer

 

[HyDroxYl]

Finally someone who got what i meant. Lets hope something will change with pirate mode 2... till then pvp will be unbalanced

 

[Galm]

yea i agree with group battles it is pretty unfair because its allmost impossible to not get killed by members with memberships. but a one on one its a little bit fairer.....and i hope they change it for Pirate Mode 2.0.

 

[Firebrand1]

they should change it so that you can only mat yourself once every 5 minutes or so that would be a bit more fair especially in pvp lol

Its fair for pvp as the time it takes to re mat you get long enough to go orbit and take your PM off
