Criminals should get a command /c loot to loot bodies of ppl they killed, and could get random items, like food, money from 1$ to 1000$, or weapon (and the game would ask him if he likes to pick up the weapon).
Discuss.

i actually think thats a good idea, and sounds interesting, i also like it.
but would you explain a little bit better how do you think it would work if it would get implemented? :)
i also dont think it would increase the deathmatch rate of noob non-english speakers, since they wont know the command, and just be forced to keep fisting, and/or getting kicked after every 3 kills they do as cop. :roll:
but there should be a limit for the looting per life, so prevent a smarter deathmatcher to deathmatch and get rich off it.
discuss. :banana:

Okay, let's say:
Me and Morphine are robbing a bank.
I managed to kill cop1.
Morph managed to kill cop2.
I do /c loot cop2
It says 'somebody else already looted this person, you scavanger!' (even if that's not true, it would still say that or something similar)
I do /c loot cop1
You searched the body and looted everything that would be worth money. You should be ashamed of yourself! You got:
Either any weapon with random amount of ammo, for example Colt with 30 ammo. It would say: You found weapon: Colt 45 - 30 ammo. Would you like to pick it up? /c pick y OR /c pick n
Remember that the weapon would replace any weapon you have in your slot..so if for example you had Python you would lose it..just like in SP.
Or:
Random amount of money, from 1$ to 1000$
Or:
Jewells worth 2k max (seeing as, I don't think anyone could wear enough jewels worth more than 2k without breaking his neck lol)
Or:
Any food...random food and random amount, up to 5 units max
Or:
Nothing. :)
How the script would work? It's rather easy to figure out. The script would detect who you killed in past 40 seconds, and would let you to use /c loot. I don't think it's possible to activate this command when a body is near, and also players often respawn too fast to let this, so don't. Easy, you killed someone in 40 seconds - you can loot his body. Even if somehow you teleported to other place.
Also...as we often know, there is this 'dead' bug where it often doesn't says you killed someone, so:
If let's say Morph kills someone by headshot and instead it just says 'cop2 died' and he tries to /c loot cop2 ...it would say 'You were too disgusted to loot this body, the stench of blood just didn't even let you touch it'
That's all if you ask me. Of course, only 1 loot per one body (so you can't loot the same body 2 times, unless you kill the same person again)
Now that I'm coming around the idea...looting weapons is not the best idea cause you already can pick them up when someone dies. But still, we can discuss.
Thanks, Dani.

This is a nice idea actually, but will it take from the food i already have or it will take from the body only? because if it takes food / money away from you that will be BS.

It will be all script-generated, so if you die and someone loots you you won't even feel it it any way lol. Except for seeing simple /me command:
/me has looted cop1's body.
-
Whats the point of looting corpses for weapons when you can pick up their weapons when they die anyway?
-
And the food isn't that expensive I guess
This idea would increase deathmatching since everyone will target newbies/poor/vunreable players, which are without any items and you can still loot something good from their bodies

See my last post in the topic:
'Now that I'm coming around the idea...looting weapons is not the best idea cause you already can pick them up when someone dies. But still, we can discuss.'
So yeah.
@Aven
I don't think so. Most players wouldn't even know about this command anyway. I don't see how would it increase DMing. Remember the punishments are the same, everytime - kick, tempban, ban. So yeah, pretty much, I don't think it would increase DM. I even think freecops DM more than criminals, for now. Cause they're money hungry.
Anyways, even if it would increase DM a little bit, it makes criminal life alot more fair seeing as cops get automatic money when they kill criminals.
-
I think money should not be generated, coz that can lead to money cheat.
So, if you rob a corpse, the guy should lose the amount that you robbed.
Same with food/drugs/cellphone or whatever the player is carrying.
So, if someone has all cash deposited in bank, he wont lose anything, neither would the murderer gain anything from it.
This has some advantages:
1. Players will fear ingame death if they lose cash. Would increase Roleplay while being robbed.
2. Players will use the bank more often. Huge transactions will be wired rather than cash payment.
3. Storing food/drugs/weps in houses (does not exist yet) will make some sense.
I agree with Klaus about the wep part
-
Ooo! Yea, I didn't thought about it!
And I told you guys already 100 times lol, if the weapons idea is stupid then do not implement it as we can already pick up guns.
Okay Axxo, so how about it? shall we make a poll?
-
The idea itself is pretty cool - it will hopefully balance out the kind of cop-criminal money 'reward' distribution.
I think aXXo's idea would also mean that people will see more purpose in the bank, as realistically you wouldn't tend to carry your fortunes around in the street with you.
-
The idea is cool and it kinda makes sense other than the weps part.The cheaters,we could prevent them by setting ht u can loot the same player's body in every 5 mins.And yeah leggys right,why would the cops get money for killing the criminals,and criminals not get anything for killing cops who hunt them.You guys could make it work...
-
Fuuu, I told you about this the other day, you stole my idea! D:

I actually had it in my mind long time ago when I was banned, but you have reminded me about it when you started talking. :)
-
Nice idea but people would just kill you and loot drugs from me all the time instead of buying from me...and DMers would cause people to moaning a lot.It is a good idea but still have some cons..
-
Look guys you seriously don't get it...this idea won't increase DM, cophunters will be still cophunters, DMers will be still DMers..the only thing that will change will be the fact both non-DMers and DMers could get some food/money/jewels/drugs/whatever from ppl they kill...most ppl won't probably know about this command after it's implemented (beginners I mean, and mostly newcomers DM)
-

This ain't an argument, keeping the command as a secret or idk what's on your mind...
People will kill more because of loot, I think it's the way it goes
-

Looting drugs by killing someone can put them in serious shit....especially if they kill you...an EAFie :D
-
It's hard to find a trusted drug dealer, who you know won't try to scam you in some way. Neal is that person. If you try to pull one on Neal, your either desperate or just plain stupid.

I am a trusted Extacy buyer!!!
just to let everyone know...

Where's Alarba and the LSD when you need him?

Killing = Shooting
Shooting = shooting to others
Shooting to others = shooting to other armed ppl
Shooting to other armed ppl = chance that you will get killed yourself
You'll get killed = others can loot your body
Others loot your body = you lose something
You kill newcomers without guns to get something to loot = fail cause they won't have anything
-
so if you kil someone who cant play but have like 100k cash you can go DM him till hes poor
thats a stupid idea
I believe you put yourself here as an example, as you dont know how to deposit cash?
Tbh, everyone who not agrees with this idea is either too scared of himself losing anything, or is a freecop who thinks only cops deserve scripts
-
f**k you
i am a rich guy wh has his money on the bank
Cool story bra!
As Hanney would say:

Bump, I want to know from Daddy if this idea could be ever implemented
-
yea sometimes in this century :lol:
-
Never trust an Indian, lol
-
yea sometimes in this century :lol:
I suggest we lock the whole ideas section and only allow one suggestion per year then :roll:
-
why?
you post all ideas.
I script them over the year
then the new mode gets released in next year which is called RPG v2.0
