Idea For Rc Recycling

<div class="IPBDescription">too late for 1.04 i guess</div> With the new patch the dreaded alien recycle has been done away with... But i dont entirely agree. IF you have been saveing RCs for a while you should be able to give back for the greater good.

I had an idea i thought i would throw up and let you guys tear apart. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

How about on the alien HUD instead of the option for ready room you replace it with recycle. This will take all of your resources away and give 1/2 of what you had back to the gorges.

This also means that if you are about to die you can quickly dump off the RCs before you loose them. (thats expecially important for a gorg) Nothing sucks more then when you are at 70 RCs and some haphazard marine stumbles upon you. To fat to run, to weak to fight, 70 RCs down the drain.

Also when a player leaves the team/game he would automatically recycle.

You dont get all the RCs.. but 50% is better then 0.

    I dont think that when u kill a gorge his res r wasted.. i think they return to the hive and divided among other players. If no1 needs them, the hive saves them.

    The way the resource system works, your RP are returned to the team pool upon death. REcycling only happened when going to the ready room. No more.

    On a side note, the new "no recycle" rule is evne more exploitable my a malicious player. Repeatedly joining a aliens, going gorge and hitting f4 will basically prevent the aliens from doing anything due to their resources being sent to /dev/null by the said malicious player.
