Any limit on uplinks / hives is BEGGING for trollage and would probably create MORE server load than what is already there by forcing it to not only do what its doing now but also track placement / order of placement etc..


Lets say you make it so that once you drop your limit no more can be dropped. What happens when some logi drops out of the MCC hits the redline supply depot and immediately spams the limit right there? YOU LOSE, not to mention the fact that so few people would run logi we would probably never see any equipment anyway due to the fact that no one is going to gamble a 100k squishy suit on maybe being able to put his equipment down.

Then lets say instead you simply blow up the earliest placed equipment when a new piece over the limit is dropped, now that same logi waits until you are mid firefight grabs the redline SD and proceeds to remove all of your equipment on the front line. Have fun not getting pushed back with all your hives and uplinks gone.

I can go on and on with the scenarios of how any of the limits is a bad idea but its all hypothetical garbage so I will just get to my point.

FIX THE EFFING SERVER IF ITS LAGGING.
REMOVING PARTS OF THE GAME TO TRY TO WORKAROUND THE SOLUTION LEADS TO A BIG FAT NOTHING.

I believe it would bee too easy to cheese the technical problems if a development team knew they were working with a hard cap.
