Hiyi *waves
im sure some of u are probably wondering eh? what the heck is JJ talking about now?? lol
there is no such thing as pvp mobs in non pvp areas.... or is there?
well while hunting... if u have not had this happen to u yet.. then rest assured it will at some point ..
so... u are happily shooting at a mob... then as u are shooting the next mob some1 else happens to hit it at the same time .. u go to collect ur share of the loot only to realize u.. get...nothing!! lol
ur 1st thought as a new player might be is this a bug? should i report it?... but u decide to shoot few more 1st ..
few mins later it happens again and u may even notice its the same player.. so u might ask him did u get any loot? cos sometimes i get no loots .. assuming u get an answer the person might say yes i did more damage than u so i got all the loot .. so u think hmm ok then so it must be player vs player whoever does the most damage to the mob wins all the loots ..
so u carry on hunting.. then as u win ur prize from killing a mob some1 else happened to be killing at the same time u all of a sudden get a pm something like "stop kill stealing my mobs or get reported"
ofc ur like er ..wtf? whats this guys problem? and u might say something like "1st of all they are not ur mobs i did more damage than u so i win the loot i stole nothing lol"
well u get the idea and probably wondering what did that guy mean? was he just being salty and making empty threats to try n discourage u from shooting mobs anywhere near him including the mob hes shooting?
so to be on the safe side when this happened to me i decided to contact support and ask them directly
and this is what i was told ...
"Killstealing is against the rules, period, it can happen but it is also something which can get your account suspended."
2 yrs ish on and still it happens .. some even try to do it deliberately to me.. so not only do i have to be aware of the mobs im hunting and trying to make sure i dont hit a mob some1 else is shooting i have to watch out for others who simply dont care or trying to kill steal the mobs im trying to hunt..
this to me is a form of pvp (player vs player) cos players are competing against other players for the rights to the mobs loots, the losing player is losing peds in decay and ammo etc while the winning player takes all and risks getting their account suspended should the losing player chose to report ..
this shouldnt even be a issue and i think its about time something was done about it so all can enjoy the game without the unnecessary drama and time wasted in such report cases
so that brings me to my suggestion and how i think it could be fixed ...
in the above image we have 2 versions of the same mob the top left is a non loot shared mob.. and u will not get any loots should another avatar do more damage to this mob than u , unless u are in a team and the same team is shooting that mob, however if a player outside the team does more damage than the team then ur team gets nothing lol.
and top right the shared loot version of the mob where any who shoot at it should get a share of the loots from the mob.. and the bottom Illegal tatget? this is the msg u get if u try to shoot a mob with a mounted vehicle gun lol
so what i suggest is to make all mobs in non pvp areas shared loot mobs or to make it show the illegal target msg shoud u try to shoot a mob some1 else is already killing and to put mobs that are not shared loots in pvp areas
as far as teams go, only those who are in the same team should be able to shoot the same mob a team member has already hit, the same also for those who might wish to team hunt in pvp
sorry about the long read but hey it wouldnt be a JJ post if it wasnt long lol + i wanted to tell it in a story like fashion to take others down a little memory lane type trip so u guys would remember and understand how it feels to be on both sides of this type of situation and why i personally think something should be done to try and make hunting a enjoyable experience for all involved, from the noobs to the veterans, for those who wish to hunt solo or in teams or even those that want to compete against others solo or rival teams in pvp environments
hope u guys enjoyed the read
have fun
