Too lazy to find my old thread but:
I suggested this in mind to the mini escape pods.
My thread basically said that the escape pods can be improved depending on how much cash you insert. More $$$ = higher probability it will get to centcom in one piece. There should be a special dock in centcom for those people. You can boast how you got to centcom 1 minute before everyone else, and that you ate all the icecream. Emagging the money slot randomizes the probability, so if you're strapped on cash and feeling lucky, you have a chance of pulling a good pod. Or if you feel like sabotage and someone with a bunch of money has a probability of getting a shit pod. Either/or.
But yeah. This would tie in nicely with a kidnap objective. Grab and click a cuffed person to shove him into the pod, and if you're a syndicate the pods trajectory is not centcom, but the syndicate shuttle. You will dock in the syndicate shuttles pod bay.
You could have a objective related equipment of an implanter which would cost 1 tc that would prevent suicide of a player. You can buy it, or take the gamble and dont.

Quote:Fun in theory. Main issue is if these captives have to be alive. Most people will just suicide if you take them somewhere and permanently incapacitate them so that they can observe the round. It's actually more fun to be dead and ghost around than to just sit around somewhere or in permanent unconsciousness.
