    In recent releases, looting a corpse has sometimes had a delay attached to it. As a player, I don't always understand what's going on, and whether the game is letting me loot the corpse or not, or whether I just have to wait around. I'm sure other players have experienced this, too. And I'm sure its something that would confuse a new player.

    A while ago, I posted a thread suggesting a loot timer,
    How a (short) loot timer would help shared combat experiences.

    I added a comment to that thread suggesting this, but since its relevant to current releases, I thought making a note here would also maybe be the right thing --

    A short loot timer would also help deal with delays, because by the time the timer is finished, the delay will likely be over, and then that's when the loot box will come up. It would smooth over issues with lag and make the game UX present a bit better.
