back pack surprise

[cab435 0]

Ok so after playing a while I've most of the time people kill each other just to take each others items.

But what if opening someones back pack could kill you ?

A few days ago I found a satchel charge for the first time ever in my game time.

Blowing up buildings is cool and all but .. why can't I put the charge in my back pack and make a trap.

Using some other items would be the key unless we just added a option to click the charge and set it in our pack.

The idea would be if your satchel charge and other items are in your bag then its armed.

If you're killed and a bandit opens your back pack BOOM hes dead.

Plus you'res and his loot is not forever gone.

A few different opens could be put in.

Like ones armed you can open your bag cause you know how to with out blowing up.

But if your buddy opens it with out asking Boom he just killed you both.

That could be the down side to having it armed in your back the risk of someone opening your bag with out asking and getting you both killed.

A other option would be it only arms if your heart stops beating.

But for this I'm not sure if we could do that as is or have to add some new loot item to make it fair.

The main idea is this would cut back on people killing each other for food/ammo a little. (I know that a lot just kill each other for the murder points but you get the idea)

Seeing how rare satchel charges you may never run into someone with a rigged bag.

So what do you guys think? would it be a fun little twist to have as a option or is it to much?'

Edit

Could do the same with tents arming hem to blow.

Plus it would have to be a satchel charge.

Could fill empty cans with foul and break your flash light. (or just grenades smoke bomb or flare could be used for different affects)

mixing them into a flash that would hurt the person opening the pack slightly.

But would mainly just burn up all your gears and pack.

Could make it if someone shoots your pack it explodes or could be that it can't explode that way.

Just so people can't use it for easy kills like we know they would.

Or we make that ones the heart stops its armed thing work.

Might curb people looting each other a little bit.. but me blowing up buildings would skyrocket.

Find alice pack, equip alice pack, arm alice pack, drop alice pack in super market. Sit back and watch with big grin.

LOL, thats a good visual..

also if the backpack once armed could be shot and made to explode i imagine the number opf PVP killings would skyrocket.. people would shoot people in the back with hopes of seeing a mushroom cloud..
