A thought about this rope cutting and loots

[Nenne.]

As i read here in this forum i cant help thinking about something. Maybe some can help out here.


If a player rush up to the rope and cut it off and then gets killed by the group of 4 that was extrakting.

What happens to the loot ? does it drop to the floor and gets visible for all players or your loot just for you ?

Worst case scenario is that your Socom high end sniper rifle you grind with your 4 man group for 5 hours for. Now is visible for all members in group to grab on the floor.. Now there is no player today that wouldnt grab the chance and steal it we all know that by now.

Or will it be as loot is today in map its just visible for you...
But then i think. When the player that cuts the rope cut it will the bags automaticly go in his bag or will it fall to the floor and if nobody exept the owner can see it ...How can he steal it ?

I guess this is the things that will show on patch but would be nice to hear some inputs about it..

Does it matter? It's just the dumbest thing ever.
People thought E.T. was bad for Atari lol this game is being systematically killed by it's own creators.

all the loot that was rope get placed into a single pile for everyone to pickup, cause of how the game works when picking stuff the first person to pick from the pile will get all or the most high end weapons, also the ones with highest gear score too i think.

now in a squad 4 buddies they could talk it out only take the stuff they put on, but if there 2 or 3 randoms and all their loot is on the floor its open season and you are probaly going to have to go rouge just to protect your stuff. if this is the case evac sites just got alot more heated

well, we dont know it now right?
maybe it is wiser that we wait for the 1.2 patch goes live guys?
we all assuming right now

Anyway , whatever the out come, can we complaining to devs? do they ever hear us?

[Rinto]

im assuming even less ppl will go to dz when it hit 1.2
im assuming the player base will go down even further
im assuming after series of bad decision for patch, massive either stupid or it intended to bring down player base. less player mean less server and more money, such a cash grab ubisoft, ggwp.

All we can do is wait and see but that should not stop anyone from trying to see the end result,
there is nothing wrong in an assumption if you don't take it as fact.
The developer/publisher will have someone reading posts, even on here.
what they do with all of this feedback, time will tell.

If they didn't add this stupid rope cuttting bs, people
wouldn't be complaining as much but it seems the devs are just playing some sadistic game screwing the playerbase over that doesn't want to be an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Until the second perma-ban wave hits, this'll just create some extremely profitable killboxes for hackers. People need to extract their stuff sooner or later, and when you see an extraction zone that could be littered with 20+ high-end items, oh and so mass will be added to the dragon's horde.

To a degree, I understand rope cutting, but if a rope is cut, I feel that the person that cuts the rope and the group affiliated should IMMEDIATELY be declared rogue for the time value of a full extraction + the duration they're carrying cut loot (even if nobody was killed), and may not extract out of the point at which the rope was cut until they A. Die, B. Destroy ALL the gear they picked up (Not trade) or C. Extract their stolen loot at another extraction.

The reason for such a harsh rogue treatment when rope cutting AND stealing the loot is because exceptional loot is difficult to find. That case may change with the new patch, but nonetheless this would provide a group ample enough time to reclaim their lost belongings, essentially making rogues willing to screw over others at their brink of success walking piggy banks for those willing to dole out some justice.

I remember when going rogue was penaltized now its being turned into the only way to do things

Too bad uninstalled and waiting for overwatch

What's funny is when you think about it---players could use this method to essentially trade with anyone.

[PaPa_BLa]

But if you see in the setting/key-mapping section, you will see there is a shortcut key for "Cutting the rope", it's there from the beginning!! ,
We just didnt realized it, see it by your self.

They planning this from the start, now they (ubi) thinking this is the BEST time to release it..
