Theft when barter disabled

(1/6) > >>

Hello,

I believe the devs didnt create such theft system like its now intentionally. In NCR (guarded town) if theres no penalty for stealing like before (guards shoot) neither no penalty for browsing the stuff of the other, just the bad karma for actual stealing made a perfect environment for thieves in NCR, around 3 vendors, people trade and they shamelessly browse the stuff when they barter. I mean, looking 1 sec at the vendor with your loot and the 2nd second at the character (for thieves) is not so convenient. theres a disadvantage for the bartering, usual people as I think some people dont change the barter window place and simply dont see the thief browsing, and even when looking the thief is sometimes faster than you press ESC and move... The result of this is massive plague of thieves in NCR, not to mention bank, where you need to look around too, but most funny thing is, you can kill/attack/steal in the bank!

I think a solution to this theft would be to make the bartering people engaged upon attempt of stealing like the vendor/shopkeeper when 3 people barter that he is too busy, so that the thief uses steal but receives a message "the target is busy". Its simply not fair (and makes the game more annoying) because thieves are simply on the advantaged position.

Give thieves a chance! When I'm at NCR they can escape only if robbing someone near exit grid and then instantly leaving NCR, if they far away from exit grid, they usually die.

kraskish:
Well, imagine that, I (and a lot of people) travel to NCR to craft and then sell I need to disarm the weapon to go into the city, then I (and others) would like to simply barter, but cant. The 3 vendors there are all close to exit grid, like 20-30 steps? and after going to the city I (and I think some people too) dont put the gun instantly when leaving, also low levels cant kill the thief. Another option, guarded merchant in NCR. Its like communist fight now.

virus341:
Try this.
And if it is still a problem to press esc and run from thief, well...I suggest you to move to another city.

kraskish:
Yes, that is the problem as I said they have more time than you (with slight delay - you barter in that moment you dont look 20 seconds at your char) pressing ESC is instant but then right click and left its kinda challenge to be faster than 1 click of the thieves... doesnt it?
