I'm pretty sure that you can't access anyones locker but your own. If these work anything like banks in AO and EQ then you will only be able to store stuff in the locker that you can access from any locker on the globe that you can use.

Hacking a locker in an enemy base lets you use the locker so that you can access anything that you might have stored in it. I'm pretty sure that you can't hack into an enemy locker to access "someone elses" locker, because in an enemy base, there isn't a locker for each person, it's player specific.

Therefore if Bob open's the locker, who is on the enemy team, the "stuff" that is in the locker will be different from what is in it when Karl, who is also on the enemy team opens the locker. So why when you hack into a locker would you be able to loot someone elses stuff when there is no way to determine whose stuff it is?

*******************************************
Main Point : Lockers are universal: What each player sees in the same locker is different: You can't access another player's "stuff": When you hack a locker you can access your "stuff" from an enemy controlled locker

Please tell me if I'm wrong in what I have gathered in my information here =).

well if you could hack a locker, then you could hack a terminal and run back to the locker and shove all the enemies stuff in your locker, and say you have MAX armor in your locker in infiltrate in the suit, hack a locker, slip into the MAX, and go to a terminal hack to get stuff go back to your locker, and put the stuff in. probably easier said than done.

Very nice tactical potential. Sneak with an Infultration Suit, hack a locker, then swap it out for an anti-infantry max

A squad of guys does this, and then you have a good shot of taking the control room, because it'd be pretty confusing to not know where the enemy maxes are in the base that you thought was yours

Oks the facts (or lies I just made up, one of the two, you decide)

Lockers are Global.

Your goods in a Locker are YOURS, no one can get stuff out of it but you.

If you Hack a locker it just makes it so you can use it to get some goods out. It does not allow you to steal other peoples stuff.

I didn't read this thread, because it is long on a fairly simple topic, but Tobias is 100% correct.

Yes, even the last part.

i know this goes off topic but since so many people are talking about what the devs have said and such my question is- How many devs are their? It cant be a small team working on such a huge game
