Scrap PvP Stealing
ThePhoenix77:
1. people don't re-spawn in RL
2. I wasn't on about actually attacking the thief in game I was on about being able to react fast and to be able to cancel thier steal attempt.
3. Real life is harsh, FACT. But you are able to react to it as soon as you have noticed what is going on. Which was the point I was trying to make, and IMO in game needs some adjusting so that you can react fast when you have noticed what is happening instead off seeing what is happening, clicking here then there and there, bugger too late and they have left already.
4. you can't of read properly what I posted first to which I commented on a comment on my post otherwise you wouldn't have posted this comment.
Then you come in with
you can't 'smack them one' unless you're character catches them red-handed.
(but when you can see them doing this you should be able to have an affect on the situation as you are the character catching them red-handed)
Even when you do catch and kill them they will be back in a matter of 2 minutes and if they managed to get anything from you the guards will likely get it after you kill them.
(I wasn't on about killing them)
Thief greifers will chase you all over town threatening to steal from you and if you don't want to risk it you will have to run.
(happens in real life just as it does with other things like people trying to attack, rape, murder and they will chase you until you can get to safety for the time being )
Can you imagine a real thief safely doing that?
(yes they will follow you all over town, county even country as long as they think you have something valuable enough, how many modes of transport have been hi-jacked over the years from wage wagons to the great train robbery. albeit they follow sneakily)
jonny rust:
...ok, still not sure how I came out looking like a thief.
but for future reference hitting the escape key twice quickly will get you completely out of the barter dialogue. I usually hit it once if I see something suspicious and get ready to exit dialogue window next if I need to. It always works for me and the only time I get robbed is when I'm consciously baiting a thief, and then I usually kill him.
IMO the real problem is that once you kill a caught thief he will be back in a matter of minutes doing the same thing, which doesn't bother me if he isn't griefing but imo It's the lack of risk which needs to be addressed with thieves first and for most.

I would like to see a key press that would exit barter and fail steal attempt on you at same time as if to say 'aha caught you' - would be nice to see that appear above your head as well.

How is it abusable? answer the question instead of saying but you cant smack them one when I wasn't on about punching them I was making a comparison to RL when you are given a choice of how to respond - smacking them being the instinctive but legally wrong thing to do, if you had just stated that pressing Esc twice cancels the dialogue screen it would have been constructive instead of just stating that you can't attack which gives the impression of though luck, which in turn sounds like I'm glad you can't attack me.

Scrap stealing in towns already! (for at least 30 seconds after characters enters the city)
When i want enter NCR to craft something, often the VERY FIRST thing i see is a thief just running away from me after having stolen all the materials i needed for crafting that didn't fit in both my hands!
That is sooo sick, annoying and unfair.

Why don't you just set your tent by VC then?
