The MAJORITY are to busy playing. I can prove that.

The thing is: I don't want to take anything from you. I want a solution that works for everyone. You just seem to want to get what you like best.

Do you realize that you belong to the minority here? Please stop acting like a complete jerk and be a little more cooperative.

Don't be ignorant ..it's already proved.. MAJORITY people in this thread want instanced loot, loot options or adjustments to current system... FACT..

Statistically ..this is proof.. you just don't want to see it.. Again..if you have no idea how statistic works, go away with your "majority of players are playing" argument.. it's bs and you know it..

Hmmm, looks like that load has your name on it. It must be yours.

:D

Not sure if you still are reading this feedback but:

FFA loot is a type of loot I always despised in d2 and was very happy they fixed in d3.

The issues with FFA loot are as follow in my eyes:
-It forces people to focus more on loot than on fighting creatures. This leads to issues like players who contribute the most to the group and least rewarded while those who leech are mostly rewarded. Distraction from combat leading to more deaths.
-It also make a lot of player prefer solo at all cost over multiplay which reduces and take away from the coop experience.
-Creates way too many arguments over loot...someone beggng to have the wand the warrior took etc. This kills the momentum of the group and the fun factor of playing as a group.
-Even with people you know, some people get greedy and its really just frustrating to see them grab everything even if its minor things when you barely have time to get anything because you are trying to ensure you kill the pack of mobs instead of looting while dying.

i really see very little pros to FFA but lots of unfun cons that lead to a lesser experience.

Personally, I will just solo 99% of the time to avoid this system at all cost. The few times I will group is when I need to leech xp and will probably just do my best to prioritize looting while leeching xp as much as I can because its what the system encourage. So I guess you could say I will use the system as it is intended....I simply debate that this system is probably flawed.

Again this isn't proof of anything. Your trying to make the claim that just because people ARE NOT posting on the forum means that they are perfectly content with the looting system. Where as I bet there are many many players who simply never play public games (because of FFA) and also never voice anything on the forums. You really can't prove I am wrong. And I really can't prove that I am right. Thats the whole point. Its a silly guessing game. All we can do is look at the information before us. In the threads there are a vast majority unhappy with the system.

Please, prove that the majority are unhappy. This thread is not good enough proof. PERIOD.

have you missed the many many other threads all over the forum??

I would like to see a fresh poll created regarding player satisfaction with the looting experience.

The posts on the forum is the only proof that matters. Majority of video game players never even post once on the game website. Just because every player who plays the game doesn't post on the forums doesn't mean they are satisfied with the experience and just continue to play the game. Logic, definitely isn't your strong suit.

So basically... Just because a few people whine like crazy all day long their opinons matter the most.


Gotcha!...

No..this is exactly how it works.. ;) You need sample big enough to prove reality.. and this sample is big enough..
