If someone attacks my squad leaving BL with a Flail with a laser and a heavy laser, and if by chance I was able to beat him, and loot his lasers, would I be right to keep them, since he was arrogant enough to risk them in the first place ????

Shouldn't there be a reward for going up against vets with heavy lasers with LaserFire 2 and Sniper 2 that can hit at 200m ????

Yeah. Keep them. If he wants them back demand an extortionistically (made up word) high price, or not. There is no requirement that says that you must give or sell loot back, that's up to you.

God knows if I looted something exciting I would either get it or something of equal/greater value out of the win.

YEs of course - thats why Lasers are overpowered and rare so people are too scared to use them.

You almost are compelled to keep them, to keep them scary to use in PvP for both sides.

For the record those laser gunners had no sniper specs, but one did have laserfire 3 not 2.

And yes, unless you give your word to return loot earlier in the event you're perfectly within bounds to keep what you win.

HE attacked YOU, and you won? Hell yes, you keep it! Maybe he shouldn't have attacked you, huh? And maybe he'll think twice next time.

Put it another way--if you caught someone breaking into your house, you wouldn't hand them back the crowbar they used to bust your lock, would you?

Actually I won and looted his Apache. His question is hypothetical.

I once looted one of hallens firetrucks... but I like him so i gave it back.

there is nothing to say that I should have...

Longo kept my first renowned apache for a while before ransoming it back after I asked him... perfectly fair to ask for stuff back but not to expect it.

Latte offered my firetruck/heavylasers/buzzers/everything back when I was bored, also.

Nice guy.

I declined.

there is some... most of it as predicted good natured and conducted in the spitit of this being a game:rolleyes:

unfortunately some of the less mature members of the 'community' we have here have decided to stick infinite bounties on people who support expanding PVP... Were it not for the mountains of car cannons, heavy gatlings, v8s I now own in Texan and BL it might be a little annoying....  :cyclops:

Yeah that's been my experience with having bounties put on you, they just give you more better loot.

They're also too easy to avoid but just running a large number of 1 car unarmed travels right before you send out your actual combat squads.
