Remember those portals we tested?


What about a deployable jump gate?
Cpu/pg intensive
One carried
When deployed, arm comes up like remotes or cloak
Deployed part generates entry gate
Unit moves into place and holds button for 5 seconds
Portal exit deploys at unit location
Unstable tech, gate decays at 10-20 seconds
Flux could collapse portal

Many tweaks to apply if considered. Portals may have been baked in idk, may not be feasible. Not to mention resources if more than one per team was in use. (Solved by a system like vehicle cap?)

I was watching eve vids and this popped into my head. I know it resembles droplinks, but consider being able to get ropes on heavies, portal opens, you have a 10-20 second window to deploy a force that's organized and ready. Might be too OP xD
Could turn the tides on a redline, that's for sure.

Discuss. Suggest.

Pretty sure once of the first things they said was that this could not be a deployable equipment.

I also proposed a one-time-use device that you could drop, and then recall back to. Would be awesome as a scout to batman into a complex, get the hack off, then warp back to your designated point and peace out of there.

But, not possible on PS3 apparently

Rattati already clearly stated this only worked with hard coded entrance/exit locations and could not be deployed on the fly by players. This is because the code fundimentally does not support it and would require tearing apart core elements and significant rework....in other words far more work than CCP is willing to invest in for too little gain.
