From my 1st day one of the futures I liked was the global/HoF thing!
I liked not only for potential vanity purpose but because I'm interested what ppl crafting and ofc globaling!
Since the day Explosive Projectiles introduced one more thing this BP caused was that interesting information from global system became almost obsolete! Ticker 90% of the time it is annoying than informative now.
I know what you are gonna suggest..... "disable it"!
But that's not something I want to do and it isn't a solution.
I want global system to be usefull to me again, so I want to suggest a filter "by item" or something like that.
That would be something great.

Might be something minor to you but I feel the need to ask for it.

Thank you

There's already options to both disable it and to filter by HoF size. Adding filter to show only items would be easy for them to do.
 
i have had it set on its maximum since it was introduced , so that when it pops its actually something high.
Still, funny thing is as I was typing this , 4k hof on explosives.... sigh :laugh:
 
I remember that usually my friends did send me a gratz in the chat when they saw I got a global and so did I .
But after the new chat system people seems to have lost interest in the globals and most messages just disapear in the confusing chat windows etc

Actually I'm talking for "exclude from globals:" option here.
 
Don't worry, some day zyazyus pospilitus cosmo whatever will run out of PEDs... I think? :eyecrazy:
 
The filter needed could certainly be by item but perhaps also filter out items crafted where the base TT value means a success is a global. That seemed a bit silly for a long time.
 
Filter for Hunt - Mine - Craft - others (rare etc.) would be great.
As a hunter i don't care about crafting or mining globals.....
 
I personally don't see a reason for globals to appear every time a n00b or puny-grinder scores a 12 PED loot. It pollutes the text-box with needless spam. The vast majority of players don't want to see these globals. Players winning sub-50 PED loots can still get their swirlies, it still gives a bit of incentive and makes things a bit more fun & exciting, but it doesn't need to spam every player's (default) message window.

I also like the idea to filter out 50+ PED globals based on mining, crafting or hunting. I don't need to have my message window incessantly polluted by explosive projectile globals. +Rep on that suggestion.
 
The flashing global ticker should be optional. But just like in any casino, the owners want everyone to see when someone hits a jackpot.

These days it feels like 99% of globals over 2k are Exp IV...
