Excellent post Sirhc, couldnt have said it better!
As for the older loots, i hope that this reminds Mindark that we need those kinds of loots to be happy.. like a wakeup call. Happy players spend more and create goals other then just trying to get their spent money back (only goal for 75% of players).
But there's one thing on everyone's mind that should be mentioned:
Recently, for those informed and up to date with happenings, only a very small number of avatars are getting all the loots. And i mean high loots. While i never profit, and i consider myself average skilled, they profit dozens of K's per week. This pisses alot of people off. Sure let them profit.. But why should 10 profit while 100K loses? If 100K leaves EU, its a lot worse scenario.
If for one hand it can be an incentive (become uber skilled and then profit like mad), whats doing to most of us is killing the fun and hope. I know some very dedicated people to EU that play 24/7... and simply dont loot anything worth mentioning. What kind of payment is that for their dedication?
I dont really care about big profits from hunt. What i do care is looting:
- Better items that allow me to progress ingame, and not peds to pay stuff super overpriced to scum resellers that withdraw from the game to cover their RL addictions and bills.
- Enough loot that covers ammo spent and total decays per hunt.
- If you global, it means profit - and not going on a hunt, globaling and returning minus.
- Becoming skilled to a point where i slowly profit from everyday's hunt, so i can build a nice pool of cash to eventually buy an imp/mod fap - because they dont drop anymore.
And i must say that even with mod fap and Mod Merc, only 1/10 will profit with this setup. Because loot adjusts to your spendings. Try hunting with Opalo and see average loot, and then hunting with Urban Stalker+Dante.. and you will see how many 20-40 ped loots you will get using the BLP combo. It has to be that way or else the risk of loss would be tremendous. Its already big, but if the loot didn't adjust to decays, then we would have serious mayhem going on. Being uber efficient means nothing unless the supporting skills are way high like 10K, just as Knuckles said.
And the rest i underline Sirhc's words, they really make a lot of sense.
Im so tired of depositing 50$ and more then half of it going to decays... just to have another 25$ that last about 2 hours of play. If i want a Casino, ill go to one. But I want EU. A place where i can have fun hunting, mining, and socializing.
Im mad, yes i am, because i love this place and it just kills me to see it left to abandon by their own makers.
