I find that this has been happening to frequently to me. I might be bleeding in a jet and land then die so someone takes my jet or tank or kits and end up wasting it.

 

I think if we establish some sort of system so that these things might become less common among server users. Maybe if someone dies and their a HAT or sniper kit is left behind hold onto it for them and if they dont want it you or your squad leader will decide what to do with it. If someone DCs while in a tank or plane/helicopter(landed) maybe hold onto it for them and if they dont come back then you have it, i think it would just mean less people stealing peoples stuff eg. some vanilla newbie comes and takes your jet (if you jumped out to save it) then manages to get killed or crash with your plane meaning a needless loss of assets.

 

Sorry if it dont make sense im not good with grammer or english

Youll find most of our community members will do that for each other.

 

Unfortunately there is no way to guarantee a community member will be there next to you/waiting for you/able to pick up your kit/jump into your vehicle before another player can grab it.

Its also not something we can enforce and I dont for a second think we could enforce the 'bagsing' of kits/vehicles/etc on public servers.

yeah i know you cant do much, just figured something in the server rules saying if you see someone bail out of a plane to save it DO NOT take it

Woah.

 

I've had strips torn off me for suggesting less than that. The absurdity of it is mind-boggling.

 

The general rule of online gaming is you have one chance, you die or lose it, someone else gets a go. What you are suggesting is devoted to clan play only, not pub (or close friends).

 

The only thing I agree with is if you hop out to repair or man the gun, or whatever, and someone takes it, that sucks. But that is also part of online gaming and the annoyance that people without any sort of morals or ethics create.

Agree with S.O.P there, i'm of the opinion that if someone is using an asset and is in the process of repairing it then its still in use by them. If they die however then its fairgame for other server uses to enjoy.

 

Bagsing of kits is a great way to turn PR into a nillah type server where you have 15 ppl all waiting for the jet to spawn etc.

 

I'd love to try my hand gunshipping/jetting in PR (yes i have been practicing in training mode) but find i'm either not on a server/team with these assets or they are already in use by someone far more capible than me. If its the later, i'm less inclined to take said asset if they are doing a good job for the team as i know they'll be far better than me at it (nillah is a different matter tho)

Neftaly actually made a system that would've worked for this [which was pretty sweet] but sadly it was unfeasible logistically because someone would have to manually update it (it was a PHP based plugin to the Quarter master system that would disallow unmarked people from getting say pilots kits or HAT, but would allow the less important kits to be grabbed by anyone... pure genius IMO) and of course it would be an 'unlawful' modification to PR so we couldn't run it anyway.. but yeah I know what you're talking about when PB kicked you and the guy got in your jet. TBH I think he was well within his rights, yet he even brought it back for you!!!

didnt he bring it back for me in a burnt out wreck or was that another game, i admit that he was allowed to take it, i would have just rather had it back once i got into the game about 30 seconds later

Well the one where I was on Kashan as commander, he landed it just fine (overshot by a bit but was ok) and taxi'd it back to the runway.. dunno what happened after that.

oh he landed and i said thanks, then the guy who crashed it hopped in
