    Hello

    The last couple of months i have the feeling there is not really a drawback on dying in this game.
    Like this week i killed the same people so many time that i dont even get reward anymore but keeps coming back to fight me. I have the feeling both of the players wasting time than. After few time killing the same person so many time the winner will be punished for not getting any reward any more,this really bother me so much and other players that we have the feeling that this is time waste killing same person so much in a short period that most of time the winner just goes offline. So maybe some people say just go other map but that just nonsense because you not gonna give like you x6 map or hitac to a enemy that only let himself dying.

    So me personal opinion this game have a bad death mechanic. Ship reparation is free with premium and repair ticket, Drones you can repair with repair ticket also Yes there is chance you lose them when dying but most of the time this is fixed with the repair drone Cpu.

    So how we gonna fix or reduce this problem?

    Increase the cooldown repair on spot at the portal and on point this will help alot than the person that got killed need fly whole maps like old time to be on fight again ofcourse he can jump directly on map with the cpu so increase the jump cpu timer also. People still have chance to be fast at fight like 3 chances they can still use spawn on portal,on point,and ofcourse from the station jumping to the map where they died. This plan will certainly have influence in the meta
    fight will be slower ofcourse

    Second idea if you kill a player 10 time in a row without dying be him. Than account will be locked for 30 min. Ofcourse the player can buy himself back with uridium so he can play again but that will cost 30,000 uridium.

    Third idea just make repair ship cost 500 uridium like old time. But this time also for premium players.

    I hope people enjoy the reading but this is really a problem like on last pirate event. https://gyazo.com/340cbe5d1c3ae530e25b78b713a862cc that people try give players pushban on purpose. i think is just stupid also to fight guys till server restart even when you winning but the people that lose keeps coming back. Alot of games have punishment on dying so why not on darkorbit?

    I know you probably put a lot of time into this, but you're missing the big picture here. Why the hell would DO wanna slow down (thus upset players, causing them to quit) their respawn time?? Why the hell would DO lock someone out of their account for dying? Or make them pay uri to get back in on an already dying game. Why do you thing all the servers are merging? You're missing the big picture.

    Now, if the 2nd idea is to help get ride of botters.. well instead, they can just increase drone damage based on the time frame in which you die. for example, you die once. You come back, die 2 mins later, you drone dmg goes from x% to twice as much, and so on. This would then put a stop to botters, or cause them to lose their drones frequently. If say they die 10 times in 20 mins, boom drones gone, rather than what it is now. Teach botters a lesson by taking their drones.

    By my experience the week players have good reasons to attack the stronger. They got killed whenever they try to participate in events like Pirate Raid, Spaceball, Hitac, Ice Meteoroid, etc. If they get pushed out, their only option to revenge is to annoy the clan or player responsible. Just want to remind you, this is shooter. If you don't want repeated attack from weak players, treat them fairly. I don't know anybody who like to get killed, even without penalty. Most just yeald to the stronger player. I actually like the one who is weak and don't give up. Leave it as it is.
