Kind of disappointing (Shop shooting)

<< < (10/14) > >>

Kirkor:
Maybe fighting should be made impossible by game mechanics, when you are in certain areas (Shops etc.)?
For example: When you are at shop, your AP drops to one and it will not regenerate until you go out from the shop? Or somethink like that...

Maybe thieves should also have some annoying cooldowns, like crafters (or even worse) ;P

Trokanis:
I agree with most of these points, especially the marking of gear.  Personally if you're shot in a guarded town I think your gear should be marked for a period of time to be only yours, and only npcs can pick it up, you can then return and talk to the guards or sheriff and get it back.  This was already suggested in this thread but a repost wouldn't hurt.  Also if you are a thief or shooter in town, there should be serious consequences in guarded towns.  Not just the slap on the hand and possibility of being shot by someone who managed to notice.  More like you are instantly vilified by the town, until such time as your karma drops back to neutral, (via shop selling, npc rep kills, waiting ect.) The 5 second memory of guards is insane, especially in "The most powerful city in the Wastes." Or guards in the Hub, where they're damn near trained killers.  The shooting system in merchant areas is tough, but post guards in those buildings that might help.  "World" RP reason because of the reports of poor wastelanders being blown away right under guards noses.  "Game" RP reason, because people will actually consider coming to towns talking, and experiencing them.

This is currently going on in VC where 2 PK with 249 HP kill low level blue suits in stores and at the workbench.
1 blocks the door for guards, the other does the kills and picks up the loot.
2nd guy picks up the loot from the corpse of his friend.

Happend to me as well.. I like how this game is very heavy pvp but there NEEDS to be some safe towns. The current guard system is not working and people that abuse the system are ruining the game for many.

Any automatic NPC system is and will be abused. Only player driven system could be really safe and fair.

Nowhere is safe. Nothing will prevent a person from raising a gun and launching a bullet through your skull. What can be done is to discourage that. Biggest reason why guarded town shooting happens is that players don't care about their lives but they do care about their items.
