Suggestion: Introduce side tasks like Gear Rescue Missions for dead players
Idea: if you die in the game and then die again trying to rescue your body, you should have the option of establishing a contract open to the player world via one of the vendors where you offer money in exchange for another player to go and rescue your body.
Key details:
1- its only mission accessible, no one else can loot the body unless they accepted the contract
2- the dead body only becomes visible when you accept the task, the game already does this with task items
3- you can only transport the items you collect inside of containers, you cant physically wear them or use them thus preventing stealing
The game already has this, there are several missions where you are tasked to go check on what happened to dead PMCs only that they are always strip of all gear
