Will you be able to take enemy factions weapons?

[FraBaktos]

Will you be able to take, steal if you will weapons off of enemy corpses? I don't understand why you couldn't if you can't.

[Hamma]

Yes, when they die. The leave a "coffin" you can loot.

[FraBaktos]

So if I killed a Terran with a chaingun, and I'm vanu, I could take his chaingun?

[Hamma]

I believe so, but you would need the Vanu counterpart to that cert in order to make use of it - as i understand it.

[Styr]

gimme yo lunch money foo

[�io]

Yeah you need the "weapon class" cert if you will. I'm wondering though how the heck will TR and NC get ammo for stolen VS weapons and vice-versa.

[Camping Carl]

Maybe they don't.

[Navaron]

You know I just realized, I've never seen this "coffin" - what's it look like? Is there a pic somewhere I've never seen?

[�io]

Uhhh gimme a sec i'll try to find it.

[Hamma]

I know there are pics around, its just a little coffin, decked out with the empire's logo and colors.

[Warborn]

Hopefully not shaped like a coffin. That'd look kind of cheesy.

But, it might be one of those situations where you need to see it to understand.

Dead people will only turn into a coffin when they respawn, right?
So medics can see who to revive, and for visual pleasure by seing a TR/NC eating dirt, for a while.

[Warborn]

Hm. Would be nice if it worked like Wolfenstein. You know, when you shoot a guy and get him to 0 health, he's incapacitated and essentially mortally wounded. After a short while, he dies, if a Medic doesn't revive him. But, if you shoot him while he's incapacitated a few times, he'll die.

Yes. Once you choose to respawn, or the respawn timer runs out, you become a coffin that can be looted.

Presumeably by looting the corpse where you got the gun and taking the ammunition too.
