Let traitor uplink slowly generate crystals

Post by CPTANT » #570033

Currently what traitors get is entirely front loaded, you get 20 tc and that's it. I was thinking about it and thought that maybe it would be interesting for traitors to not get everything up front but have the uplink slowly generate tc over the course of the round, this would space out traitor gear more and give some early game breathing room. It makes it more interesting for traitors to try and acquire gear early because they know their traitor gear takes time to arrive.

Of course the actual numbers need to be discussed, I am just laying out the general idea.

I don't. The data suggests other people don't.

That is used by a tiny majority of people.

Sounds like a bad idea because it encourages traitors to sit in a closet doing nothing to drive the round for thirty minutes to maximise gamer gear.

There is a lot of very bizarre nonsense being talked on this forum. I shall now remain silent and logoff until my points are vindicated.

Just came here to say: screech, retards. Screech and writhe like the worms you are. Your pathetic little cries will keep echoing around for a while before quietting down. There is one great outcome from this: I rised up the blood pressure of some of you shitheads and lowered your lifespan. I'm honestly tempted to do this more often just to see you screech and writhe more, but that wouldn't be cool of me. So come on haters, show me some more of your high blood pressure please. 🖕🖕🖕

Could give traitors all their tcs when the emergency shuttle gets called.
I code for the code project and moderate the code sections of the forums.

Feedback is dumb and it doesn't matter

If this was gonna work it would need to be tied to actively doing objectives, at which point you've just got the contractor kit.
