400+ pages, I guess people dont like the current loot system at all, at least not satisfied, please do something, GGG 1st step is to triple the loot timer, or even make it perm will be a good start.

Just because you see 400+ pages doesn't mean people doesn't like it, half the posts here are people that like the loot system, the other half doesn't.

Why does it hurt you so much that devs consider customer ping and fps a problem? Do you fear you will lose the bounty from such an easy prey? Oh god, you are paranoid. You REALLY are paranoid! I'm not afraid of anything, my ninja skills are so fucking optimised that no amount of timers can get in the way. Do you know how my skill bar looks?

Mouse is assigned to anything that could make your life miserable, like zombieloot + skeletonloot (summoning them on top of loot so you cant click it) and lootwall blocking your path. I'm playing a dagger + maul + shield (on 2nd weapons tab) geared witch so I can abuse all the mobility skills in the game to ninja your loot. WHat's you gonna do ? That's when I join public parties. But I usually don't cause I don't like FFA. I have my own pritave party, me and a friend with 3 characters each farming for orbs non stop.

The other half is ... Yeah, because you counted. Go figure I COUNTED I'M STILL COUNTING BY PAGE 70: - 168 Users had participated - Chris last seen on Page 54 - Kyadytim had a pro tier idea back on pages 40-44; something along the lines of if you're not looting you're getting an XP boost. Well thought out posts, go back and read them. - Multiple Leagues is the most common "other compromise" with "Leader Decides" being the next most common. - A lot of the people in "No Definable Opinion" were simply whining about the concept of FFA without staking out a position. They were dumped in there for not expressly giving an opinion, but most there seem to have misgivings about FFA. - New participants start flooding in around page 60. Page 66 goes off topic and leads to a load of No Opinion allocations.

I think the timer needs to be increased, or done away with altogether. I make it a point not to loot other peoples stuff even after the timer is out but I constantly see ranged getting the shaft. Its too far away, mobs are a physical barrier and noone wants to stop mid fight to try and frantically grab some loot. It is thrill enough to see it drop imo. Leave FFA loot to the hc players and let me fight forst and sort through loot later! Also, it can be very difficult to target items when there are players, mobs and spell effects all over the screen. This from a melee player. www.jeffbradleyphotography.com	Posted by Silocibe#5641 on Feb 3, 2013, 4:09:26 PM Quote this Post
" moikpei wrote: I REMEMBER THIS CONVERSATION You're awesome dude. Add me to the list of compromises for my suggestion of reserved loot is invisible to everyone else until the timer runs out. Seriously, it's like semi-instanced and still FFA. I really just want this loot bickering to end so the developers can work on important things like server crashes and random disconnections. I'm also fine with the current system. Last edited by Juggernaut448#1888 on Feb 3, 2013, 4:10:56 PM	Posted by Juggernaut448#1888 on Feb 3, 2013, 4:09:39 PM Quote this Post

Well, id laugh at you for having some serious mental issues. Thank god i have yet to run into anyone that insane in public games.. And really, thats all i play. And, if you really annoyed me enough id kick you or leave the game. Its got nothing to do with the loot. Its your attitude and they way you think. Seriously...Id rather jst avoid people that think like you. I really don't care about who gets the drop...lol	Posted by Vooodu#7002 on Feb 3, 2013, 4:41:37 PM Quote this Post

And some people post a lot inflating (/wink) the page count. Some guy started to make list of people on each side of the divide, has not posted for awhile.
