reimplement the keep looted weapons next round feature

[Panos_]

Why was it removed first place??

It was a nice feature I think..

What do you guys think?

[Rebelyell]

it was removed because of throwers

there was no way to reset inventory after  throwing random picked up throwing ammo  so devs removed looting

because of throwers

what?

[Lt_Anders]

what?

If you loot a weapon as raned(ammo, basically) then, unless you dropped your weapon, you kept it, over your old weapon until next round.

So, as a thrower, you were always looking for more, and thus throwing it, by the end of the match, you could have 4 different types of weapons in your slots, thus screwing you NEXT round.

I liked the feature...but I thought it was removed because you didn't pay upkeep on other people's equipment you picked up (lets be honest, nobody cares about pure throwers, those bastards should be hybrid throwers anyways)

I liked it when I had riding. Pick up a warhorse and keep it for 5 rounds without payment.

And that's the reason why it was removed. No upkeep.

I remember reading at some point that you could get upkeep on those items as long as you use automatic repairing.

Repair would pop up, but you don't pay for an item you don't own. cmp said so, and that's why it had to go.

They said it's a bug. You could see the message but on char page there were no upkeep charges for looted items.

Btw. if you do this I'll be much grateful because I'm a scavenger. Hopefully in Melee, you'll implement that neat feature from Sui Generis where player can loot armor as well.

Funfact: You still payed upkeep for looted weapons you spawned in the new round, but only if you owned that item already.

It was looted weapons that you didn't own yourself that you didn't pay upkeep for.

Loved this feature and would really like it to return, would also be helpful for the new hybrid builds

[Taser]

I made an alt just for this feature since I loved it. Bring it back!

[Panos_]

Some new guy with riding skill and only like 5k gold manages to kill a guy on a plated charger > mounts > round ends > i can't stop laughing
