Dead eh?

[me_b_kevin]

i'm new to discovery but i'm not new to role playing.....

-docking in combat makes perfect RP sense especially in a home system.

-rearming and repairing(getting a new ship) makes sense too, your attacking someone's home base so it shouldn't be easy. Saying they shouldn't be able to dock and come back out would not make much RP sense...attacking a fully fortified and populated base and not expecting to run into defenders resembling a swarm of bees is not realistic.

-In other space RP games (EVE-Online) they dealt with death by having Clones which would make sense RP wise. at the home base you could have a clone of yourself and you could say that everytime you take off your memories are downloaded as a backup incase you die.

-having your opponent dock in battle seems like it would make it harder to dominate their home system which makes sense and it would make it an even sweeter victory if you can completely drive them back to their homebase and keep them there for an extended amount of time blasting them everytime they undock.

am i making sense?

i don't argue that it's frustrating to have an enemy almost dead just to have them dock. maybe pick your battle ground a bit better next time...either way if an opponent runs count it as a win and run yourself...chalk it up as a skirmish and try drawing them away from dock.

- maybe one thing to help with the docking problem is not enable the instant docking (with stations or planets) to me instant docking with stations or planets doesn't make RP sense either unless you want to take damage and possibly blow your ship up anyway. to safely dock it needs that sequence.

i hope i'm not talking out of my butt, i just had some ideas i thought i'd throw at ya
