I think groups would get tired of having to continuously leave a team and get added back on just to get some shit loot at outpost. Of course they can get around this by just not creating a team and still make the same play then the outpost wont know they are on a team but it is one more annoyance to deter this kind of toxic lazy behavior in rust. Too many times one teammate just roof camps the recycler or vending machines at outpost while his naked teammates just waits for a big score looting everything he can from all the new players that dont know the right way to recycle. The only thing that they should implement if they arent going to get rid of the team system is that if one person on your team is on a bandit camp or outpost timer the whole team should be on a timer as well. If another teammate can loot the guy who is killing people then there is no downside from sitting in outpost and just killing as many people as you can because you can always send a friend to loot your body.

Allowing teammates to loot other teammates would be terrible because teams already camp these areas and if you are careful they cannot loot you and at the same time they will lose whatever is on their body usually a double barrel or eoka to the thirty minute timer. If you die with a crafting queue all of the extra wood will pop out of your dead body allowing the guy who killed you to have his teammate loot it. Some people over fill their inventory with wood by crafting TCs and then buy more wood. looting, affray with wounding, of a corpse of somebody or other. You can also get screwed over at the vending machines by buying too much wood. But the case is very different when a crime takes place now and then an individual.

The only way they can get your stuff is if you load a ton of it into the recycler then a another player kills you and his friend loots the recycler.

If you were looted you probably were just outside of the safezone or your backpack despawned bc there wasnt great loot in it. If someone kills you they or their teammate cannot loot you.

Someone is already looting that corpse
