Need to be able to open other player's backpacks

[KHARNIFEX]

Hopefully this is a feature that's coming because this ♥♥♥♥ is mad annoying and makes zero sense. If I kill someone I should be able to take their loot from their "lost backpack", not just their sellable items and whatever else they have.

so we can't open the lost backpack for sure? that strange

Why would you bother to farm when you can just camp an entrance and wait for some guy who's been farming for 3 hours in the zone to come by and keep all those barter items for yourself. If lost backpacks could be opened, it would be a camp-fest and no one would engage with the PvE content

I honestly agree with Tyopepe.. Also if anyone could open them. Whats stopping high lvl player from taking a bunch of ♥♥♥♥. going out and dying on purpose to then drop all the stuff to a new player? since there's no level other then Rep. That guy would be hitting late game gear quick as ♥♥♥♥.

+1. Pvp is pretty yikes if theres no full loot option, makes it a pretty hollow game mechanic.

Go play tarkov or rust you whiny baby. I'm sure your exfil camping spot will still be warm if you hurry. Just messin (except for the "whiny" part), i play tarkov a lot and enjoy those kinda games that are basically robbery simulators and cancer in video game form. But I don't need or want that in every effing game. Im enjoying pvp in this game, its satisfying af to murder someones face off, and the big spontaneous TDM battles are awesome - and TBH those WOULD NOT HAPPEN with a winner-take-all system. It's different, sure, but thank god its not the same old thing. Also, that reselling of ppls stuff via auction house deserves props for creativity.

Except what happens in reality is that people base camp as is and steal the other players loot for the sake of it. So people questing wind up losing materials and griefers have their reward of ruining someones day. I have not been PvP'd by a single person that didn't steal my lost backpack.

I think a half loot system would work, where half of everything not locked is lost on death. Maybe lost backpacks can be a thing only when killed by an anomaly or mutant, and then have some mechanic where players can take them to an NPC in the forest/pit or somewhere else nasty to unlock it for a fee.

You have to think bigger, instead take their lost backpack and ransom it back to them for a reasonable price and you can still make profit off of their lost goods.

As cool as that sounds. I Put up bags for close to nothing on auction. First people cant even access the auction until like cordon as they cant use the courier before that. And 9/10 times people dont even seem to notice that there bag is up on the auction so whats the point? why use an auction? why not have a ransom systems linked between bases? where i can pay to get it out and they can put it in? Then money is transfered?

Don't worry it's a demo, Totally fine that they can't access courier for now. When it will be out more and more people will have access in couple of hours. And if they can't access it, they don't need their stuff as it's easy to farm them back.
The only time that someone take my bag in auction, i was like "wtf it's awesome", because i got a notification when i log on.
So yes they have the notification an,d it's impossible to miss it. But, they are not forced to bid on them. that maybe why you think that.
I like this system because otherwise it would be a game killer if they could just take your farm and up their weapon simply like that. It simply just reduces the dumb PVP, and that's fair.
Ransom system could be nice, so they could choose either one.

I rather it stay as a way to ransom money out of people rather than be a reason for high geared people to camp for people returning from hunts/farmings stuff/missions.

That or make it so the only method of gaining the items inside someone else's backpack is limited by a certain service character or something with a steep cost, that way only the biggest backpacks would be worth it.
