Say I'm in a Hornet taking damage and I need to open the canopy and get out before I'm killed.Now I'm in zero-g in my EVA suit. How would I get back to a planet or space station?Do I need to wait for a rescue vessel?asked by Terra "Titan" Opticon
TL;DRAfter ejecting you would float in zero-g for a minimum period, then choose to respawn at a friendly location via a rescue cinematic, with possible bonuses for friends who rescue you.
Yeah, the idea is you eject out and then you would float in space for a little while, and I guess you can watch the battle, then, after a period of time, which I guess we'll determine, you would hit whatever the equivalent of the escape key is which would basically say "Ok, I'm done now, I'm ready to be respawned back on my closest friendly planet or last location I was on. Then we'll cut to an in-game cinematic with you getting rescued by search and recovery or something like that.Essentially the idea is you eject, get out of it so you keep your life intact, you could zero-g look around and see what's happening out in space, and then after a certain minimum period of time, you can just say "Ok, I'm ready to go back to the last friendly planet or location I was on," and then we'll put you there.I hope that answered that question, and yeah, we may think of having some techniques where, if you're in a battle or other stuff's going on, some other friends who are a part of your organization or whatever, if they rescued you, they could get a benefit or a bonus for that rather than just have the game auto-do it. We haven't quite got there yet, but that's something that I'm pretty interested in doing because I think it would help the cooperative gameplay.
