Do streamers get bonus drops?

There is a HUGE difference between skipping a server queue, which requires no game client reprogramming, and having a different set of drops for a specific account. Getting them into the game proves nothing more than streamers (or at least some) get preferential treatment, which we already knew they've been doing for years.

I've always said that giving streamers privileges would be extremely stupid on their part, because if it was found out they'd lose all credibility. Therefore I've always said there's no way they'd do that.

Then today happened. Idk man, it's not off the table now.

Very much on the table. It's like you catch your girl cheating and don't want think about how much is all.

Yea, its pretty much like catching your girl kissing a dude, and she said thats all shes ever done with him.

Its going to be very hard to believe that once the trust has been broken, true or not.

Funniest part, if they had come out prior to this and just announced 'hey we're just giving out stream prio', not near as much outrage.

But this did it on the down low, didn't even tell the streamers, and even went into their channels to @ them about how to skip the Q.

Trust is now fractured, for sure.

Can't imagine they don't after this

Can't even think of a streamer who hasn't, some in their first week of play.

I'm with you. playing since close beta and never had a mirror drop ....

In my opinion, the great issue is that GGG has complete broke their credibility . How we can sure now that the streamers has not other privileges in addition to the ignore the queue?We cant. The restart the league will not resolv the totally lost of confiance of manipulation of rng "drop" in benefict of the some accounts.

Turns out it was paid promotion and they were going to lose money hand over fist.

Nonono. And not better rng at craf.. sorry.. items gambling!

Why?
The technology is not there yet.


lul

If you have more than 8 supporter packs, chances are, you got pity loot :p

I've never trusted GGG. Do I think they are adjusting drops at a granular level?

No. But I wouldn't be shocked if I am wrong.

GGG has f'd-up priorities, and exploiting player psychology is integral to how it does business.
