Insurgents Stealing Hat kits/Sniper kits/ALL KITS!

This happened about 3 times (I tend to die a lot on insurgency!). It feels a little dirty, thinking back on it now. On the other hand, it's pretty common to tell squadmates to pick up important/limited kits if you go down. (I could have let others in my squad know there was a kit to be picked up, but pretty much everyone had obtained a Canadian kit by that time.)

So if re-spawning to find/reclaim a kit is sketchy to me, I'm certainly for banning anyone doing what the OP said.

In real life guns don't just disappear off somebody after they die.

I think the 5 minutes is fair (in real life weapons dont disappear lol) but what you described seems pretty cheap and low for a player to do. If anything Id hope that one day HAT kits are made unusable by insurgents

I do believe a new system should be in the works, like making the kit disappear quickly (Suitably before the spawn time for switching) if the so member teamswitches.

But until that happens, this and similar tactics will be treated as ghosting and will be dealt with on the Virginia PR v0.9 Mixed server.

In real life people don't respawn 30 secs after death.

Ye they should as insurgents dont have the proper training and stance techinuqies to fire it safely.

Just like here YouTube - Recoil of an RPG i know the guy isnt an insurgent but he dosent have the correct techinique so he falls back know think what would happen to an insurgent if he was to fire somthing much more powerful (HAT)

It's called realism, in real life if you kill someone/if they collapse, you can take their weapon.

In real life I don't shoot people becouse I think it is fun. It's a game.

Although I like that the kits stay. It makes being ins funnier.

But then again, does a insurgent know how to operate a Heavy, complex Anti-Tank Rocket, and be able to go back to his cache and reload it?

Maybe they make it unable to reload HAT/LAT at caches. That they need to go to enemy supply crates. Because now they leave the crates behind, but if you do it in RL the insurgents while have a lot of American weaponry. (So we have to think where to drop supply crates/ and destroy them before you move on.)
