so i know that i will probably get blammed for this, which is fine lol, the timer when you hack or raid someone-unless it fails-is automatically set for 15 min, is there any way that we could have that 15 min timer for JUST that ship and be able to go onto the next ship in the BT? if this would take too much coding then i would totally understand that, but what if the timer could be shortened to maybe 10 min? as always let me know what you guys think but please if you have a negative comment to say at least make it constructive thank you :)

I like the idea of the Timer for a single ship and then you can go hack another player straight away. But keeping the timer at 15 minutes. cant you go do something else for 15 minutes. Check the forum or something like that.

Overpowered isn't the term. More "unbalanced"

dont see how, people who pvp can dont need to wait 15 min to get another kill, and nvpers dont have restrictions on boss kills, if they are rewarded for killing an elite they dont have to wait until they can attack another elite-it is all based on what your energy output is. and you are right, usually i go do something for 15 min after a successful hack, but it just gets tedious, im not complaining, and if this idea is not widely accepted i can fully understand it and i will accept that i have to go play xbox every 15 min lol i was just wondering what people thought if the option was given to them.

OR you could just use a time manipulator, like it was intended for ;)

In theory it sounds good but there is already a way around the issue presented.

I know this is slightly off topic, but you could also have different timers for hack and raid, it is not like your guys with machine guns are going to hack and your computer whizzes are going to charge aboard an enemy ship guns a-blazing. Why are they connected?
