I would like to know what it means when you pick up a traitor weapon I know that if someone sees you with it out, that is traitorous and therefore you can be killed for it But what about picking up a traitor weapon? If someone sees you pick up a traitor weapon, can they kill you for it (even if you never take it out/ use it) ? From my experience on the server, many people have picked up T weapons and it would be fine as long as they never take it out It was only today that I saw that picking up traitor weapons is traitorous I do know that the rule says that having any traitor weapons is considered traitorous And yes, I have read it hence that "having any traitor weapons" Though I'm not sure whether that means having it out or just having it I'm not sure whether it was the community that made it so it would be fine with others having traitor weapons as long as they dont take it out Though I just want to definitely know if you can kill someone if you see them take a T weapon (lets just assume that person A is 100% sure that he saw person b pick up a traitor weapon) But how would you know that Person A is telling the truth? (Unless they are a detective) And what about the teleporter? If person A saw Person B pick up a teleporter (and person B never takes it out/ uses it) can person A still kill person B even though its both a traitor and detective item? I just want to make sure so that way I would change my play style in a more careful manner
Well the rule states "Having T weapons" so having them is traitorous. You could know if someone has a T weapon if: They pull it out You are 100% positive, without a doubt, sure that they picked up a traitor weapon.
Thank you guys I'll keep this in mind next time I go on ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Edit: Actually what if it was a teleporter? Lets say someone picks up a teleporter from a persons body (detective or inno, NOT traitor) can you kill that person? How would you know if the person that died picked it up from a traitor or detective?
Also, they're not a detective so a teleporting person that isn't a detective is most likely a traitor.
someone coming out of a room that gunshots came from is most likely a traitor, but that's suspicion. "most likely" shouldnt be kosable, and its not. Most likely is suspicion.
Having a tripmine is traitorous. A regular player with a teleporter can be killed, because a) they aren't a detective and b) it's the same model as a tripmime.
OH, i didnt know it used the tripmine model. thanks for clarifying. Your choice of words lead me to a different conclusion. I understand now.
I would NOT consider having a T weapon in your inventory as a Traitorous act. If you pick up say a harpoon or an MP7, that is one less danger for another T to come along and grab up. As soon as you PULL OUT the T weapon and have it in your hands, then that is KOS on you, otherwise just having a T weapon in inventory isn't KOS-able. Also from what I have seen from admins, having a teleporter wasn't KOSable because it could have been from a dead detective. It's like calling a KOS on someone who has a Jackhammer or DNA scanner from a dead Detective.
True but then again the teleporter does have the tripmine model and it is both a T and Detective weapon so I'm not sure where that falls even if you pick it up from the detective Jackhammer is only a detective weapon, not a traitor weapon (Riot Shield, Intervention) so anyone who takes that out could not be kosed because it doesnt fall under the category of a T weapon. Still though, everyone's input has helped and now I just need to play a bit more carefully
"Where that falls" is it's considered brandishing a T weapon and therefore traitorous. Due to the model and properties of the held item.
Simply having a T weapon without pulling it out should not be kosable. You could pick one up just by standing too near a T you just killed. Or as a T you could buy one, throw it in the open and wait for someone to walk over it and boom free kos on anyone who comes near you.
Ok but then instead of out in the open couldn't a T just drop it on a body so that when an inno ID's it they can be killed? I know I sometimes pick one up after killing a T just trying to ID them.
Honestly, it's usually a moot point because typically when an inno picks up a T weapon he'll announce it, at which point other innos can choose to kill him or let him go around with it. If an inno picks up a T weapon and no one else sees him do it then it doesn't matter. If an inno picks up a T weapon and another inno sees him do it but the first one doesn't announce it, then it's up to the second inno. He's perfectly within his rights to kill the first inno. If nothing else, picking up traitorous weapons without announcing it can be classified under "hiding traitorous equipment". Any inno that does nothing but follow other innos around and kills them for picking up T weapons will shortly be karma banned.
Alrighty I just wanted to know for sure Now I'm going to go on a killin- I mean uh...play carefully lol No its just that I've been killed for it and I was confused but now this clarified it all up so again thanks to you all who responded I missed you POPSTAR
