Finally!!!!!
No more ammo on the loot, I do not know if they will give more items or I would welcome the good old gold coins and silver coins.
No matter what the changes are, I really hope (personally) after 14 years playing PE (old habits) the loot system will be much more fair.
In the current state it is almost impossible to make a hunting run of 200 peds or more, depending of what level of mob we are hunting and have any kind of return without a hof or a couple globals. Sometimes even a hof cannot pay the low return overall.
If all this changes is to be fair TO ALL PLAYERS and not to benefit players that are here since alpha or beta, that will be very much welcomed.
It is sad, that many people realize that many players have benefits from MA, I really do not care about it, all I care is a fair system.
People deposit money to have fun here, not to stress about getting broke everytime an average player deposits 50 dollars every week or every 2 days hopping a return or a big loot.
Personally I can say, it toke me all this time to get 2 uber loots, 1 over 10 years ago on mining in CND of 14k peds and a Argo kill of 6k.
I got more pissed of the tower in CND then the Argo one, since I never had a uber on mining in the planet. In fact I never had anything about 500 peds mining on the planet.
Still, they are talking only about hunting, in a way I do understand since it is the biggest profession in Entropia.
But what about crafting? And mining? These 2 professions are totally screwed up.
Explosives is the most ridiculous and unfair BP on crafting. The amount of money a person has to invest in the 20 ped / click bp is a casino gamble hopping to get a few ubers and hofs to get a return.
Mindark always said "The only income we have is from decay" we all know this is a lie. Auction taxes, CLD's sales, tp cost transport, I reall doubt this goes for the "loot poll".
Loot should always be relative to the skill of the player, the tools he uses and in case of hunting the type of mobs he kills and efficiency.
This might be the most positive update ever done in EU since the changes in 2005 or so when they removed the peds from the loot.
Make it fair for all MA. Your faithful clients will appreciate it. I know, I will.
