Instant death RT traps.

GroeneAppel:
Not going to whine about lost gear. But I am going to complain about fair gameplay.
I've noticed lately that instead of the TB traps prewipe with caravans. These days people place a car in RT have a few muties or other mercs and some friends and wait for people to randomly enter their encounter who die instantly before the map loads. In such cases you have to exit the loading screen en relog as it simply never finishes loading (probally a bug which occures when you die while the map is loading)
I doubt that there are any rules against this, but I think something against this should be done.

For example, your character isn't placed in the map after your map finishes loading (which slightly increases your chances to survive). Or it is easier to avoid deathtraps using outdoorsman. (The smell of death quickly spreads, making it easier for even the people with the lowest outdoorsman around to notice the danger)



I'm pretty sure they had mercs in the above pictures, I saw rocket explosions while I was death.

Crazy:
In the past, doing traps on WM with mercs was forbidden. I don't know if it's still the case.

zuhardu:
I guess not, the game is full of traps with mercs.

Michaelh139:
even if it is intentionally a trap, its not quite possible to find out who is doing the traps purposely for this reason because you could easily have mercs just to farm npcs, but have them on kill players just for safety, and if that player spawns in and is instantly killed, are you really going to ban the owner of the mercs?

So of course it wouldn't be bannable...

But it is a problem, I find it so easy to just go to a encounter, sip a cup of tea, listen to music, waiting for the gunshot of another player dead on headphones and loot the poor soul with delight  ;D.

Bulldog:
It's a dirty trick but the Merc user may be taught a lesson in various ways, just use your imagination.  ::)

PS I would even be more upset about encs with players in TB, now those are true traps.
