Items deteriorating over time.
gordulan:
blahblah, i tend to stock up on items myself, and i can tell you exactly what i have in my tent with Kurgan, my slaver/armorer/treasure hunter, and i personally think that this suggestion sucks all the life out of my career, with this nobody will even want to buy stuff from other players, thus halting the economy completely all because they can't stock up on weapons to use for a later date, i've had a few low level players with a bit of cash buy one of my snipers so that they could store them til they can get to an adequate level, if this is implemented then that will be absolutely unnecessary for that and a loner with an occupation such as myself would suffer immensely since i will lose my only source of caps and through that adequate equipment and materials for crafting my protection, this reply may have flaws but so does your suggestion, in fact, if i had the time i would poke holes in it throughout the next 5-7 hours, but i have pressing matters to attend to within my real life, something you have obviously not taken into enough account in your suggestion.

What if I burn out and leave the game for a while?
Should I lose everything?

Well, if you don't visit your tent for a timespan of a few weeks, it will be deleted.
So "sort of" item detoriation is already in.
To be honest, I don't find the idea of the OP so stupid.

But you are playing the game on an at least semi-regular basis. If you hadn't, then you would not have a tent any more.

Armour indeed can be less attractive with 5% det as compared to 0%, but guns? To use a sniper with high accuracy you need maybe a week of casual playing. 1-2 hours per day where you go shoot stuff on PvE. After 2 weeks of lying in a tent, the sniper they bought would be at 14%. That's around the same as it would deteriorate after using it to kill stuff for an hour. Is losing 1% a day so bad? I'd say 1% per two days, but then you'd need 230 days to make an item disappear, which is outrageously long given that wipes occur more often than that.

I did. I did! :/
I stated clearly that the time to lose 1% is up to people to decide :<
One percent people, one percent.

Yep. You already lose your tent if you do. And if you keep your stuff in a base, then other players can maintain it or use your stuff instead of you.

I find it bad because of the ammount of micromanagement of silly stuff necessary. I go for a week and I lose a tent. Yeah, right, big deal or no big deal it's gone. And with this system in place I'd have to spend quite a lot of time on maintaining almost all of my equipment. For this reason alone this suggestion is utter bullshit - it really is as mundane, boring and repetitive as the ones concerning eating and hydration. And honestly, "Armory Maintenance: The Game" is never going to be even half as fun here as it is in Jagged Alliance 2 v1.13 no matter how hard you try ;D
