Walton Simons.. (spoilers)

Are you supposed to be able to loot his body after you've killed him or is he supposed to have a kill mechanism like the MiBs?

It's because I killed him and he didn't explode and I could get his Plasma Gun off of him (not that I needed it) and I wondered if this is normal..

I had to blow him him with LAMs or a box of TNT.

When I got him with the sword, he didn't blow up.

he blew up when i sniped him..as expected..non leathal weapons should just knock him out, leaving you able to take his weapons.

I did it with the Assault Rifle (invisible & run silent, sneaked to his back, and emptied the assault rifle into his head. Didn't blow up.

This post contains spoilers if you haven't gotten as far as killing Simons, so I assume if you are reading this you've reached that point...

Simons has the same systems as you (JC Denton) and Paul. In fact, as you know, he makes a big deal about this.

(BTW, Page is networked but does not yet have any augs - he's waiting to see how well yours work out before he gets any.)

Since Simons and Page are running the show, do you think they'd have kill-mechanisms? No way. That's something they had installed in everyone else because they don't trust you guys :)

Now what you are probably talking about is the auto-detonation device that's supposed to keep the technology out of the hands of whoever killed you. This system was installed in the mechs and in the chemically augmented agents (the MiB/WiB ones) but not, for whatever reason, in the nano-augmented ones. I think this was done for story reasons because if Paul dies and explodes, there's no body from which to retrieve the datavault. That's just my guess.

So, Simons will not explode when you kill him - unless, of course, you kill him with something explosive!

Walton Simons does not explode and you can loot his plasma gun and Dragon Tooth Sword if you have room.
