PoB Siege Mechanics

[Antonio]

There's more POBs than ever before with the player count being one of the lowest since POBs got introduced. What's counter-intuitive is that we're adding more protection from "unknown mighty forces of ooRP haters" to "help" owners protect their bases. From what? Give me a break. 99% of POBs never get sieged, for a good reason.

As for why POB spam isn't a good thing it's quite simple - all POBs are inherently area of denial tools. The more area of denial tools, the less opportunity for player interaction. Even if you make a POB non hostile people will hug it and bait others into shooting it as we saw in Bering. For a game heavily emphasizing interaction between hostile entities this is obviously a problem. Exceptions would be POBs with 0 platforms but realistically how many of those are there? The only way POBs could be made indestructible is if they lost all their weapon platforms or any potential guns.
