Tagged items
« on: November 18, 2011, 03:05:54 pm »

While i was reading other posts i have seen many people complain (mostly blue suits) that they get killed a lot, and lose, every item they worked all day to get. My friend had a suggestion (I don't know why didn't he post it himself) that there should be an option to tag one or two items, that will stay with you even if you are killed, so basically making one or two items unlootable and unstealable. I don't know if it can be done or not, but at least it would allow not just blue suits, but high level players as well to use rare items. As I see it rare items just get stashed, because everyone is afraid of losing them.

Thoughts?

Thoughts?

Suicide attacks where the attacker doesn't lose his gear.

Maybe, but if it is one item, it can either be a weapon, or an armor, so it wont help the suicider much... (and i think if someone goes on a suicide run they don't take anything with them, so they don't lose anything anyway)

Suicide avenger/lsw sneaker bluesuit. I'd use it.

You do have a point.... but if you can afford an avenger, would you really care if you lose some stuff or not in the first place?  ;) 
I think this feature would mostly be used by bluesuits. For example when i was a bluesuit and managed to get my hands on a jackhammer, I was very pissed when i lost it in my first battle.

I guarantee that in pvp loot counts. For example low-tier cripplers are pretty silly strategy but thankfully not that effective in the end. Pvp would totally suck if there was retards in bluesuits with high power weapons shooting people without losing nothing but ammo. Since we only lose our stuff on death, it makes us act either carefully or like idiots depending on the prize of the gear we carry. The cheaper the loot, the less careful we are. Players not afraid to die are very tiresome enemies to fight against.

Ok, i totally see your point... Then maybe tagged items should only be protected against NPCs, I think that would help blue suits, but still prevent PvPers to bring high tier stuff to battles.

OR make tagged items unlootable until you reach a certain level, like 8 or 9.

Making anything unlootable would twist upside down the philosophy of fonline. Free pvp and full loot. Getting killed violently without having chance to defend was the thing which motivated me the most to play fonline more. Because I looked forward to achieving the level when i can pwn as well. ;-)

As was stated making items unlootable would only bring much more abuses and trolling than satisfied carebears.

Armor should became unlootable depending on type of death same should be applied to other items with random chance. I'm against though of making these item reappear on the player who died they should simply just go away.
The only thing I could accept to be unloosable are quest items but I would rather see a different continuity for the unfinishable briefcase quest when its lost...

Still abusable. Even lvl 1 suicide burster is quite effective.

Maybe, but if someone has only one low level char i don't think he/she will go on a suicide run, and if he uses an alt to do this that means he already has a high level char, so losing items wont matter that much to him. Of course this is just my opinion. Also, i think everything can be abused.

I like that point.
However, to make it better, we should make only a certain kind of item "taggable", so you cannot, for example, hide a minigun inside your bluesuit (basically this is the idea, atleast for me), while you can without problems with a 10mm Pistol.
Just my thoughts.

And yes,
everything can be abused.
