I liked old hijacking better.

I really don't have a well written out list of reasons or anything, its kind of just more of a vibe. Its cool and all, and its not bad, but I don't know man I liked the old way better.

Was it changed because coders are afraid to let people fight over the shuttle until there is but one Gamer standing?

(or was it because people were hiding in lockers or crates to deny the hijack)

I liked this part, the hunt was interesting.

nu-hihacking kind of blows because on MRP it doesnt give you a kill pass, even though as soon as you hijack everyone on board the ship beelines it to the bridge. right now there's also no objective tied to doing the hijack, and it's very easy to do it if there's like more than 4 people on the bridge because then it becomes impossible to tell who's actually doing it.

in conclusion i liked old hijacking

You can still deal with people who attempt to stop you :b

Ah, yes, dealing with a horde that easily amasses to more than 10 players. The only viable options to this are to bomb the shuttle to smithereens- but that would be murderboning.

Not my problem if Manuel admins want to piss themselves whenever an antagonist does something remotely destructive. It technically is and was an objective for most antagonists when implemented, and the intent was always to give traitors an opportunity to still complete that objective without having to scour the shuttle for one invisible piece of shit sitting behind an outer shuttle wall. If people want to hide, they might as well have forfeited the shuttle, and that seems fine to me. I don't think we should reward people who hide. More importantly, I don't understand why people are equating that original design with a better experience. Hijack was so easy to cheese a failure, that doing the objective was more luck than actual skill (or at least, there was one practical method and it was leaving the shuttle a single tile on which you stood, which meant you couldn't really be very creative with how you completed the objective and guarantee a success).

The problem with it being less than obvious who is hijacking is a reasonable one, and there is a few easy fixes for that. Namely, just adding a balloon alert for completing a stage over the person who did it. That way, you can't just hide amongst a crowd while hijacking, and it's pretty much a single line change probably. And then the only reasonable way to do it is to murder everyone in that cockpit, as I would hope.

No it was changed so I could hijack the shuttle as a crab that one time

Murderboning should 100% be allowed on MRP if you are hijacking.

It is

Remember when people used to hide in the engines and you were fucked if you tried to hijack even if you did know that
