A bunch of people lately have been expressing their concerns with the strength of the new drones and how hard it is to find the droners actual body.
I have a solution for this.
Implement a new tool that uses the existing abilities.
In my personal opinion it should be Hacking.
Call it the Drone Active Sensor. (DAS)
What will it do?
Well this is what I think it should do:
Someone with *whatever skill it requires* activates TL 80 Drone Active Sensor, when they do this an alert comes up in the Droner's screen stating that someone is locking on to their bodies position.
It should take moderatly hard to lock onto a droners position. If there are multiple droners in the zone then it will lock onto the user of the highest TL drone in the zone.
There should be multiple TL's of Drone Active Sensors and they should be VERY costly.
The Higher TL of the Drone Active Sensor you use the harder it is to lock onto a droner but you must get the higher TL's of it in order to sense the pressence of higher TL drone users.
Example:
There is a OP war and they see a PB-20 drone flying above and laying the smack down on some noobs in the defending clan.
A non tech pistol using PE runs from underground with his TL 120 Advanced D.A.S Unit.
When activated it takes him to a screen similar to the hacking screen but in a shade of red instead of green.
when he successfully gets through the defenses of the drone the droner recieves a message "WARNING: YOU HAVE BEEN TRACED" the droner can then continue to drone knowing it will take them a while to get to him, or he can drop the drone immidiatly and run for his life. At the same time it warns the droner of the trace the PE recieves a Navray like arrow pointing in the direction of the droner.
The PE tells his fellow clanmates he has locked onto the droner. The PE jumps into a 4x4, tells a tank to arm the gun and a apu to come just incase. They drive off into the direction of the droner.
[()]Ending A: However, the droner zones and they lose the trace on him.
[()]Ending B: The PE finds the location of the droner and he starts to run and stealths immediatly. The D.A.S is still able to track him while stealthed so it is pointless unless he gets to a zoneline while stealthed. His stealth runs out just before the zoneline and he is shot by the Tank with the 4x4's gatling turret.
Please rate the thread to your opinion.
