This has been suggested before.

The fact that TPG cargo crates are indestructible is kind of bothersome to me. I wonder why TPG just doesn't build ships out of the material the crates are made out of, since it it so cheap (even free items get stuck in a TPG cargo crate). This leads me to believe that said crates are not supposed to be indestructible.

Let us blow up the crates after a minute of of invulnerability. This ability will open up another style of play in the game and as a result will be interesting.

Why not have cargo crates mirror the new destructible debris, albeit with a larger health allotment?

Yes please.

Care to explain?

I don't really see the benefit of this. How does the game benefit from being able to destroy cargo boxes? how does putting someone's hard work of manufacturing/hauling/mining/farming, already full of risk in various ways, need to be made even more vulnerable to permanent loss by the unskilled launching of avalons from afar?

already full of risk in various ways

Full of risk? You call farming and hauling in your big fancy tridents risky? What the hell is wrong with this spoiled-to-the-core generation?

+1 and I'm a carebare all in favour
afk miners will hate it

Would allow runners to jettison cargo to block incoming shots ;)

Luxen, that would be a cool and interesting use of this. Awesome idea!

+1 because drevent said so.

Oh yeah :) +1

I want this just because it will give FAMY some new business. AFK miners in Nationspace will need to pay us NOT to shoot their crates. We might even be willing to protect their crates given the right amount of credits. I would imagine this to be less than our normal 300,000 credit platinum coverage. Perhaps a 100,000 credit Bronze warranty good for cargo crates for 6 hours.
