I'm curious as to why, unlike Eve, weapons don't drop off of the dead to be used in battle? Other games do this seemlessly. I understand the suits self destruct but why not allow a short pick up period? |

I understand the suits self destruct but why not allow a short pick up period? You can get hold of the dropped weapons at the end of the battle in the form of loot. There is no possibility as of now to pick by hand your loot. It is assigned "randomly" to your character... You can then assign them in the fitting room, "like in EVE"(TM)... |

I think part of the issue is that weapons are valuable in Dust, rather than being something you get from spawns on the map or unlock through achieving a rank, and thus accessible to everyone.
Basically, imagine someone kills another player who was using Balac's GAR-21, picks it up off the body, runs back behind the redline, and then camps there for the rest of the match to make sure he gets to keep that weapon. Not very good for gameplay. |

I understand the suits self destruct but why not allow a short pick up period? Because theres no point everyone uses the same sidearm. Do you really want ppl replacing their sidearm with ANOTHER proto AR?? |

If bluedots get to steal my 2m ISK Surya, they get to steal your weapons. Unless, of course, they change it to where unless you have the skills for the entire fit (just like in EVE) you can't steal it. Same for the enemies.
