DiamondDave Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 This is a bit of a random question, but say you opt to wear a hat on your character online and it gets shot off or you lose it in water or something... Will it just be lost? Will you have to actually pick it back up and put it on? Maybe it is gone until you respawn? I've been having random thoughts like this all day and I realize it is a bit LQ but it can be something fun to discuss for some people lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would also just be a fun way to mess with people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinXX Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 I want this to be a thing online for sure. It is just something you see in old western shows, movies, and cartoons. It adds a bit of "thank my lucky stars that weren't my head!" and "Where did my hate go!? LOL" to it. Like you get a mix of a cool feature with a hint of comedy, depending on how you play.

YodaMan 3D Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 I read some where if it happens you have go get your hat or you can lose it. To replace it you have to go buy a new one. If true, I am sure I see lots of characters running around without hats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kean_1 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 (edited) I honestly believe that the mention of losing the hat was simply a reference to a scripted event in the campaign and likely not a new mechanic beyond that such as losing your horse as those guys suggested in the video. You are then given the option to go retrieve it (likely putting yourself at risk) or moving on having to source another hat.

No one is going to want to deal with it. Who is going to want to buy a new hat every time someone shoots it off if they can't get it before being gunned down or it "blows" away or something? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If true, I am sure I see lots of characters running around without hats. If this is the case, I REALLY hope it takes a lot to knock that friggin' hat off. Like, it better not fly off just by running fast on a horse. Otherwise, all my in-game budget is going to go toward buying #&@%ing hats.

Purple Cactus Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Good god, if this is something that happens and we have to buy a new hat everytime it gets lost... I will just skin a fox and wear the pelt stapled to my ears. No way I would keep buying new hats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is best that if you die, you respawn with it. If you don't die and you can't find it, then you have the option of buying a new one or running in front of a train lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabApples Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 If my hat gets shot off, I would go running after it like a moron the first 100 times and likely get killed by a gang of 13 year olds. lol I don't think they will make it a very tedious thing in the game like some mentioned above. It will likely be something that respawns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fribbo Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Yeah if it does get shot off then you should be able to pick it back again, one small detail that helps show how much effort has been put it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
