Edited by: Preestar on 11/03/2010 19:02:14 This is just an idea but I think it would be awesome if there was a patch released that lets you salvage peoples corpse's.... Basically all them shining expensive implants that people have should be "recoverable" but damaged. So when you pod someone and there corpse is left behind, it would be nice to scoop to cargohold, then take it back to a station and perform some kind of genetic reverse engineering* (new skills for this ofcourse) and then it takes like 1 day for the process to complete right, then after that "some" of the implants are recovered but damaged and therefor can not be used. But with another skill maybe (Implant Reconfiguration) with the use of a lowergrade implant of the same type you could then reconfigure the implant back to its original state and sell it or use it. For example
Kill someones pod. Scoop to cargohold, dock. Perform genetic reverse engineering on the corpse. A +4 implant is recovered but damaged. Using Implant Reconfiguration skill and a brand new +3 implant. The damaged +4 is fully restored and can be reused.
I think this would be such an awesome idea, do losing the sec status would actually be worth it. Will also teach people not to go afk in there pods on the gate too :)
What does everyone think? Also CCP please really consider this idea with the other devs, Id like to here some feedback on this

Edited by: Preestar on 12/03/2010 14:30:56 Well its like a wreck, if theres nothing to be salvaged then there nothing to be salvaged. If a player that gets podded and dont have any implants in then you can still perform the research on the corpse but after 1 day it says nothing was salvaged...... so podding noob alts wouldnt work because unless you want to pay for the implants in the first place then you would only lose money. Make it completely random and the skill (genetic reverse engineering) is % based so a player could have a 3b isk clone and only a 11m implant can be salvaged. In other cases a player might have a 3b isk clone and 900m worth might be salvaged.
I really do think this idea is awesome, at the end of the day, the implants get plugged into your head, when you get podded the corpse remains, thus the implants are still in the corpses head? Id really like to see this in the future CCP :)
Also, dont forget to make a killboard showing what implants the player had in it when the pod got blown up!

You missing the point im not talking about harvesting "bodies" im talking about extracting the implants from the brain of the biomass.... performing some kind of engineering on this now damaged implant, adding some other things into the mix and thus repairing the implant so it can either be sold on the market or you can plug it in your own head..... Not only will this be a good opportunity to make money from pvp but also add a new risk factor to flying around in a pod.
Harvesting bodies which is flesh, and then producing some kind of mechanical item is stupid, you cant turn biomass into a soild state that all of a sudden has some kind of electrical interface. I just want to see a way to recover implants because in all reality in the game obv you lose the implants when killed because your body is left behind if you get podded but that doesnt stop anyone cutting your head open and taking the implants out so to speak.

Many cap pilots fly full slave sets in there head in null sec. Besides wardecs and lead people to forget to change from the mission running clone which can have full crystal sets ect. even if people do roll around with +3, you get 2 out of 5 drop thats still 20m for killing a war targets pod..... and in the wormholes where people are doing the plex sites, if you throw a bubble and can get there pod too that could have some very nice implants in.
