can 'real' escape pod be invented ?

[AshHill07]

I think it would be nice if dying had more consequences, like in EVE - it would improve a lot of things, and also serve as a much needed money sink, that could fuel increased trading and thus action on the server.

Something like a percentage of your ship's worth getting withdrawn from your account when dying (which would also effectively reduce suicidal behaviour for capship pilots), and if there isnt enough money your ships is left with an insane amount of damage (which would render it useless for PVP until it gets fixed).

Losing your ship might be a bit excessive though, but severe consequences would improve the dynamics of Disco and make it feel less like CoD or Battlefield.

Should something like this be added. Expect people like me to start whineing A LOT about how caps are so easily killed by bombers, and how its stupid that a ship that costs such a huge amount to fix is also no where near as effective as the price tag will have you belive.

Not all Cap owners are powertraders. I have about 15 mil in bank sure, but it costs me a mil to replace all the destroyed kit. I'm not tradeing at all anymore since I would sooner stab myself. So how long will I be able to use that ship until I either:
A. Run out of cash, or
B. Stop playing freelancer for months on end again because I don't want my wallet emptied every time some lolwuts decide to raid manhatten with battleships. (Which is every day)
