Too much fun not to implement

Now tat we have alchemy systems introduced we should make frozen corpses a cheap alternative for some hard to come by items. I honestly dont care what but off the top of my head i think drug production would be cool since those are largely used in pvp anyways and gas is a pain in the ass to harvest/refine so this would be a fun alternative

You will just drive up the cost of corpses so I will never be able to finish my frozen corpse marionette show.

also making drugs from dead bodies sounds like a goofy idea. It would be like making boosters from animals I harvest on planets. Using pod pilot corpses to build implants would make more sense.

honestly what you make from dead bodies is hardly the point here. it would just be fun to buy bulk amounts of frozen corpse in jita for something other than lulz on kill mails

Couldn't I just make a trial account and pod him over and over?

It will be the point if you make it profitable in any way. If implemented, you'll see people podding their alts over and over and over and over again just to harvest the materials and make money.

Remember... not all players care about "fun." They play to "win" at any cost... which ruins to fun for everyone else.

How did you Veterans start?

well since CCP added implants to the killmails, why not allow us to "Harvest" the implants from the corpse's, have a skill like
Implant Harvesting
10% chance of successfully harvesting the implants from corpse

so at lvl 5 you will have a 50% chance of getting the implant extracted/Harvested

upon successful/unsuccessful extraction the corpse will either be destroyed or no longer be able to undergo the procedure again

allows us to make us of those station containers full of corpses then :P

You could possibly treat it like salvaging. Only pods that had implants would be viable ofcourse.

Just like ratting, some wrecks yield no loot at all, and some wrecks do. The difference here would be that the corpse would be processed, and the ones that held no implants would be basically worthless, however ones that had implants would have the possibility of yielding anything from full implants to material to build implants, adding a new area for industrial pilots and add to the profitability of PvP and the integration with PvE.

I'd be all for the implant thing but ONLY if you bought and sold the corpses directly (you could look at their info to see what implants they had plugged in) then whoever buys them could have a success rate to successfuly extract the implants from teh corpse. Dont make it to where you pull the implants directly from the pod wreck. The success rate would be alot more fun. Almost like a lottery!
