Looting dead marines
Where do you draw the line on looting dead marines?
Personally I'll take everything but their uniform, unless it has webbing, and id cards (for obvious reasons).

Re: Looting dead marines
Revivable ? Not lootable (maybe the ammo if I'm desperate, but not armor nor weapons). I usually only take the M276 ammo rig, if there is no ammo rig, I don't even loot.
Brainded/not revivable (decapped or such) : looting everything I want.

Re: Looting dead marines
I strictly don't take weapons from revivable dudes, and if I do it's just to hand back to them once they're up. Besides that, I loot ammo rigs and USCM bags if they got em.

Re: Looting dead marines
If they could be revived, just leave them be. Maybe even give them stuffs and my backup gun.
If not then strip off everything except ID card and uniform.

Re: Looting dead marines
Personally I loot even revivable marines. Especially their guns. They can't use it at the current moment anyways.

Re: Looting dead marines
The most i'd loot from revivable would be their ammo, otherwise I leave their guns alone. Dead-dead lads are free game.

Re: Looting dead marines
If I ever see your ass straped with a full of attatchments rifle on you, you best bet I'm looting that shit for parts. I'll still return you the now clear gun, but if you can't use it, it's better off in my hands.

Re: Looting dead marines
I just do what I need to do. I only loot when it comes to supplies, and even then, I'll just drag the body back.
I can barely care really, I just can't. If a guy is brain dead, I'll strip his gun and other equipment,if he's revivable , I'll just take his ammo.

You will never be as bad as the baldie who picked up a tactical shotgun while a hunter was pouncing on top of a CMO for 4 seconds, with his only response being to pace around before being decap'd by said hunter. You are not Brett Kimple, and you never will be. You are not the reason why I regular MP.

Re: Looting dead marines
If the marine can be defibrillated, I'd rather not loot him.
But if it's an emergency situation, I'd take his ammo.

Re: Looting dead marines
Depends on the situation.
-If the person is dead but relivable, I don't loot them unless I'm in a tight spot {example: Me and my squad are surrounded by xenos. I'm down on my last mag, so in order to refill my ammo, I take his ammo belt.}
-If Super dead. Has one man said: 'Take everything that isn't nailed down, then take the nails, and then take those that were nailed down'.

Re: Looting dead marines
I dont touch the revivable, unless we are in extreme danger, in that case I only take ammo, I dont take weapons because most of the time thats what they died for.

Re: Looting dead marines
If he’s revivable I leave his stuff. Unless I’m completely out of ammo on both sidearm and main weapon, then I’ll take 1-2 mags and leave the rest.
If he’s gone gone, I’ll take whatever I want. Usually that’s ammo and maybe attachments, with the occasional weapon if I’m completely out.
If he’s a good marine, RPed and all that, when I bodybag him in medbay I’ll pick up his ID and put it on the bag.

Re: Looting dead marines
There's a old sayin in my book as Crunk, "If the marine can't say stop looting me you shit." Its a freebie, that is if both their legs cut off and unconscious your merely helping the poor bastard and taking their heavy load off the wounded sorta like charity work in a sense.

Dead? Free game though I only take stuff if I need it. Not dead? No looting unless survival of both of you depends on it.

Re: Looting dead marines
I loot the dead depending on my situation.
Down to my last magazine and need more ammo? I'll rummage through the piles of the dead to find the ammo type that matches my gun.
Lost my primary weapon and can't find one on the ground that matches my ammo type? I'll probably just take a gun from the dead, they won't be needing it anymore?
In desperate need of medical aid but my first-aid pouch is empty? I'll pick their pockets until I find what I need.
If you wanna survive on the battlefield, sometimes you gotta reach into the pockets of the long dead, even if it might be a little disrespectful to do so. After all, they aren't gonna need that tram-injector anymore, nor is that RPG-5 going to be of much use on a dead spec that has no hope of revival.
Of course, you should try not to make a habit of it, there is a difference between surviving and just being rude.

Re: Looting dead marines
I went full unga dunga and looted dead marines to see how many attachments i can get on my gun one round. It was after a extremely long defense on prison and xenos were almost dead so I assumed there would be little danger and little consequences on doing that.

Re: Looting dead marines
If I absolutely need something during an urgent situation or in the middle of a fire-fight, then I'll take what I need from any corpses or wounded nearby. I'll hand back what belonged to that person if they were revivable or wounded though, but I usually don't think twice about taking it first, unless it's a donor item or from an SSD person.

Re: Looting dead marines
If theyre dead-dead, as in not coming back, take anything but uniform, boots and ID.
If theyre not braindead dont touch anything unless youre in danger yourself. Though if that person is back on their feet you should return their items.

Re: Looting dead marines
If you're revivable in a normal situation, I won't touch you. Except to steal your tramadol.
But if you're dead or in capped and we're hauling ass out of where we are, and my gun is now 10 tiles past the alien frontline because a screecher got us, you bet your ass I'm grabbing your gun, ammo, grenades, etc, and using it to get both our butts to safety, especially if it's a one handed death cannon.

Dead marines are a good source of attachments. And ammunition when you run low. Medicine too if it was a medic that's permanent dead.

Re: Looting dead marines
Anything and Everything if they're not defibbable.
If they've lost a limb but are revivable; anything and everything. (Medbay takes an eternity anyways)
If they're dead but being treated/reviveable; ammo.
If they're a medic and dead (but revivable), trauma and burn kits; or if I'm a Medic, anything I'm low on after using their supplies to treat them.
