#1292, "I wasn't paraphrasing."


          

To paraphrase I'd have to be taking what you said and saying it again. What you quoted was by no means an attempt to do so.

I was suggesting other possibilities to reduce the annoyance of being fully looted. To me, the main annoyance of having been full looted is having to bother getting more food and a new water container. To some others, it's replacing whatever you keep in your pack, whether non-limited preps, quest items, or souveneirs.

There's plenty of things that are only annoying to lose, but if your high powered weapons and armor didn't get taken when you died, that would defeat half the point of having PK possible in the first place.

Apparently what you thought I was paraphrasing was this ill-fated idea:

- Discipline the player from wanting to use get all corpse. Someone sometime ago, mentioned about adding lag to getting things from the corpse. I think this idea has merit. If you know you only have a few moments to get what you want from the corpse, you aren't going to worry about the crap gear. You will go straight for the juicy stuff.
