This will almost definetly be a feature, probably around the time of the new physics engine implementation

Also for looting... Yesterday i killed a guy and a friend of him was nearby, so i couldn't loot the body until the other guy was around... I wish i could simply drag the body away and loot him in a safer place

Yeah, you could drag bodies in the mod. I think it will probably be added later.

Nice idea. Brought up many times...please search before posting (I don't try to be some kind of forum police here, but some ideas got like 20 threads, so some good and unique ones go down to pages where no one ever looks...)...just from the first pages of the search results:

I suggest an option to move or possibly carry dead bodies. Often times people kill other players somewhere with little to no cover and retrieving the loot can be quite dangerous. An option to place the body on your back or carry it in some way and being able to move it to a safer spot with more foliage would be a great addition to the game in my opinion. I would also like to see your opinions on the matter, so leave a poll!

Yeah they definetly need to implement this. I thought they had this in the mod (but in like a very buggy/unrealistic way) but they really need it here. Would be really cool to be able to drag a body unto your shoulder to a safe location or even use them as bait. Have to make sure they're dead firsty tough  :P

Yes, they actually did have this in the mod. It was however, as you said, a bit bugged. You can also check if a player is dead by going up to them and checking their pulse. A dead players pulse will read "[PLAYERNAME] has no pulse and is warm to the touch".

Ah, my apologies then. You just phrased it like you didn't know about it yet :P

When you drag the body, there should be a blood trail if it wasn't a blunt-trama death. I'd use the body as a meat shield.

I wanna drag unconsious players too. So that I can.drag my buddy to.cover while my teammates suppress the sniper that took him down.

And drag handcuffed playeras, so that I.can cuff and drag the sniper to the edge of the balota highrises and toss him off. :3

I'm agree about dragging unconscious players as well.

 

Dragging by arms or legs is better than carrying... Most players have bags already and the addition of bag+body will be a very loud burden. Not so realistic thought.

I mean, it's a horror game, and it might as well scare people or even attract zombies somewhere.

Well it also could also function as warning, signs or to scare off people.. i would think twice entering a city when there is a stack of bodies on the road.. also shows sign of life and makes it easier to meet up with people (talking from SA perspective as it is right now, i dont have any other experience with the game than the game as it is).

Dragging your teammate behind a cover instead of trying to bandage/morphine/etc him in the open field under fire.
