They were, not quite, but almost get out of jail free cards but didn't really last long enough to do anything but run to the nearest base or jumphole. Often supported/enabled poor gameplay from a certain type of player.
Increasing their charge time and duration is definitely an improvement in both areas.
Yeah we should favor other cetain types of players as always. What you call poor gameplay is just posturing for 'remove what gets in my way' when its been this way for years and was not really causing any problems, except to those who claim its a waste of time to be here unless their opponents always die easily.
Ok so you wanna make this fair? Time for regular CD's to no longer work against charging cloaks. You want your 20s so bad, use it well or lose it. Or we just finally killed cloaks except to lurk pointlessly or evade an interaction completely.
Think of something other than that selfish drive for blues on an rp server and remember that denying you a blue also requires skill, and should be perfectly legit to rp. Boo hoo hoo if you get so angry and hormonal over losing a kill because you're playing a more compicated space game than star conflict.
The best way to fight back against the gankers was to dissappear on them while they frenzied to gun you down! I never even complained. Its fair to gank, should be fair enough with 10s charge time while being spammed with 3 CD's on your butt. If you let up and one gets through, thats an good achievement for them. PVP'ers addicted to blues ruin things to suck in a few more from those who probably put more work into their situation. I have like 10 small cloaks that are useless. NEMP's gone and useless. All to save weaker minded players from inconvenience when they should have been told the whole time to suck it up!
