Default Cylon Respawn

I Just started another game on a different server and chose the Cylon faction to go with. After I died a few times I saw that the cylon defeat and respawn screens where not as realistic to the show as it could be.
For one. when you die as a Colonial the Game asks you where "search and rescue" would like to send you, same is ture for the Cylon. But in the more resent seires cylons would reserect on specail ships. I believe it would be more fan friendly if the game would ask to Cylons "Where would you like to Reserect?" If Big point could through as big of a twist as vipers having ftl's I think Big point could come up with a way for The Cylons Adapting the reserection Technology into There Outpost vessiles.
I hope to see what other fans of the game and the seires think of what I have to suggest.

The game developers have to keep the game fundamentally fair between the two factions. - every game must have rules that are shared and agreed upon by all participants.

If you give one faction the ability to choose a re-spawn point then you must also make it available to the opposition.

I rather like the idea of having more control over where my Avi re-spawns.

I think what hes getting at is not making it unfair...just changing wording.

Colonial - Where would you like Search and Rescue to take you??
Abalon or Delta Aurican

Cylon - Where would you like to Resurrect??
32 Serpentos or 169 Aretis

I believe the game is set right after the destruction of the Resurrection Ship, so they can't just download to a new body. If you look in the Cylon home systems, I am pretty sure there is no Resurrection Ship there.

I believe this is either mentioned on the game's website or in the tutorials.

But how can you be rescued from a raider considering theres no pilot and cylons are the ship, I presume for a cylon to be able to fly a raider it needs to be uploaded to the ship some how .

Idee Easy!

Cylon Pilots while flying a ship are in fact downloaded to the ships systems.

But

If the ship gets destroyed the "brain" (if you like) get jettisoned at high speed into a random direction away form the fight. A small capsule of pure electronics keeping the cylon conscience alive.

This capsule in fact has to be recovered.

Problem solved

Thank you

The brain box pops out and is rescued.
