Escape pod idea (Cash rules all around me)

[Sundance]

giving someone a risk-free escape for a 4 telecrystal item? An item that can ALREADY pretty much do anything?

If a traitor wants to use a pod to escape, there should be some risk to it. The shuttle should be the only 100% option.

Personally, I'd rather prefer to emag all the escape pod controls and kill all the jerks that I couldn't kill on the shuttle than guarantee myself a lame escape with no risk.

I agree emag does alot of things, but I could imagine a traitor just emagging all the escape pods for the fun of it, and then we'd be back to square 1 of nobody boarding the damn things because of fear they'll blow up.

An idea that would satisfy both parties
What if emagging it just randomises what grade of escape pod comes out?
So if you emagged it, you could put in say the minimum amount, and you might get a gold pod.
On the other hand, some poor loser that has come alot to an emagged slot may put in the maximum amount and possibly get a bronze pod.
