I recall in the original x-com that if I walk over the corpses of one of my fellow marines or an alien I can pick stuff up from the ground that they had... I don't think I'm seeing that in this game... is that expected?

I haven't tried very often, so I couldn't tell you if the gear's usually vaporized or if it's sporadically broken, but if you access the (live) soldier's inventory management screen while he's standing on the very same square as the corpse, you should be able to pick up gear if you have the requisite action points and space.  At least in 2.2.1, it appears on the bottom box (the 'stuff on the ground' box). 

Only major inventory-related bug in 2.2.1 I've noticed was occasionally having gear vaporize when my team returned, like one time seeing multiple laser rifles (that had been brought to the mission and used -- not that the 2.2.1 aliens carry lasers to pick up anyway, methinks) vanish.  That was annoying.

Not autosold accidently? Check the autosell checkboxes on Buy/Sell screen.

Lew Yard:
Doesn't seem likely.  I don't see anything labeled as an autosell button in 2.2.1 on the equipment screen, and I recall it only being intermittent -- should have been more common.  Might have been relating to having temporarily dropped a laser rifle to free up some hand space, 'tho; might have gotten it to be flagged as battle loot, although I don't see why it would have been sold when there wasn't exactly a surplus of laser rifles back in base.  *shrug*

Not equipment screen but buy/sell screen. There are such checkboxes in 2.2.1.

I'd say so far in my 1 week experience with the game I've played about 99% of it in Multiplayer... so that is where I'm not seeing the dead soldiers equipment on the ground.  I will also try it in single player and then log a bug accordingly if I find the same.

I have some questions regarding game play, namely reaction fire...  I noticed that soldiers only return fire after being fired upon... shoudl I expect a scenario where a soldier would return fire just because an enemy has entered his line of sight?  Also is there a section where all the stats are described and what they effect... like does STR affect how much stuff you can carry, and what effects my ability to perform reaction fire..etc..etc... I know this isn't the right thread toa sk all of this in, so I appologize for that in advance.   Still finding my way around here :)
