All I see in this thread are people that need more friends to play with. Seriously, make some friends. Public parties in games always suck, just get some friends.

too bad when my friend see me playing PoE tell me

" what crap is that? where are you brothar to the 1990? "

how i am supposed to make ingame friends when i must gamble my chances in the public ninjas?

Could you maybe speak English instead of Engrish? It would help me understand you better.

Also it sounds like you need new/better friends. I don't understand how this game is 1990s or whatever they claim, your friends sound like idiots.

You make in game friends by asking if anyone wants to party up in global and say that whatever drops with reserved time for whoever belongs to them. Pretty dang simple.

dont' be harsh to him :P he knows that FFA is wrong but he cant' accept it in public because the ffa side will lose one of the most pationate defenders :p

There is nothing wrong with FFA-loot, you guys can't cope with it and feel the need to use a loot-hack. FFA-loot will get changed i have no doubt with that. But until then it's feeding tears time. 8)

truth?
facts?
or fiction?

yes there is nothing wrong with FFA....it is the best system ever created that's why you find it everywhere nowadays...

soooo successfull
MASSIVE successfull

cool story bro

edit: are you gonna say that also when the mirror drops and it is allocated to you and you lose it 0,00001 sec before clicking...dont' lie...

It's quite successfull in Eve don't you think?
And if there are so many games which give you what you want and this is one of the few that does have FFA why feel the need to change this one also?

edit: At least the forums allow FFA hehe, i wonder how many posts would be left if the hello kitty moderators would read them.

So far they keep it pretty hardcore, hopefully they stay that way.

imho there's nothing hardcore in clicking and picking up the loot.
and the subject of this topic is loot, not how much hardcore is the game (like respecs, dieing in hardcore league, how hard is the game when party play etc).
While i think most of us would want a core-hardcore game this has nothing to do with the the loot system used.

Yeah, because there are consequences, totally the oposite of what we have here.

I don't see how this is different from the current system except now the countdown for item is dependant on the distance.

I couldn't care less. For me it's a game. Lineage 2, having a red named char was fun. UO before Trammel was fun to play. Getting hunted by anti-pk guilds was fun. At least something happened. Today's games are all lalala-land games. Handholding games because we don't want anyone left out in the loot-pinata.

And yes i am that old =p

Yup that's why having a pvp and FFA league would be fun, if that ever happens. Propably not but we'll see.

we have moved from that part

EVE is MMO
PoE is aRPG with 6people partying

you cant' imply that EVE's success (debatable, EVE is successfull cause it runs the bills but anyway i wont' argue in this one) is the FFA system

compare apples with apples not apples with onions...
