regarding experience gain cooldown

[Lunartique]

i think xp gain cooldown should be removed;

 

when you hack mutliple objects simulatnously, you only get xp for the first thing you hacked.

i think that's just unneccesary.

 

when you mine or cut wood, you only get 2 xp every 15 seconds.

which is just alot of wasted xp potential.

 

of course cooldown should still remain on certain things;

 

like stun gunning a player with a bounty should retain it's cooldown.

as it could be exploited.

I think the reason for the tree XP is similar to the stun gun, with tree tokens/metal tokens you could gain crazy amounts of XP in a very short time frame. They are annoying for sure, but if removed things like cooking would become even crazier.  Also, I would like to point out that even with the XP cooldown on resources you managed to reach level 40 in about a week if I recall correctly.

 

Earning XP to easily could also greatly upset the economy as you can trade XP for tier 1&2 loot boxes. If there were no cooldown you would get around 100xp per tree token, if we estimate 10 minutes a tree, that is a tier 1 loot box every 8 minutes and a t2 every 23 minutes as estimates (2.6 t2s or 7.5 t1s every hour). Take that into consideration with some people playing 6 hours a day and you could get a situation with someone getting 15 t2s or 45 t1s in a day. 

 

That said, I still agree with the hacking cooldown removal as I believe the rate you gain hacking points is somewhere around 1 a minute and you get XP equal to the amount you spend, limiting the gain to about 1 XP for 1 minute as a hacker. Compared to the 8 minutes to get a t1, using only hacking to gain XP would take 75 minutes to get a t1. It is a limited resource that takes a fixed time to get back, so I think the cooldown removal would not do anything but let players get the full reward for their time.

Or maybe a system like the do MMO games? Such as the more you do it the less xp you get

yeah, this is good

and to get full XP for it again you have to wait the original cooldown
