To Mindark:

I'd like to see regular postings of average hunter returns as you posted after loot 2.0 for a couple months. I think postings quarterly is fair.

I would also like to see posts if you have adjusted the return rate each time.

Finally, I think it is fair to the players to describe changes you made that affect over time to reach average, such as frequency of multipliers of loot.

I'd like to see median return rate reported. It might be more informative than weighted mean.
 
Yeah a simular function as with crafting where u can see return/success et.c but with hunting and over time
 
with the new european data protection law you got the right to get every information a company owns about you. which means you could ask them to provide any data they got about you which should include the hunting returns etc as they obviously log it

ill definitely be doing that :)

They might want to change that support answer if they hope to get and maintain their banking license when General Data Protection Regulation begins to apply after 25 May :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Your own hunting returns you already have, if you care to track them. Statistics about all or a group of players aren't data "about you" because they are de-personalized and hence do not fall under this law. (I don't know for sure but don't think so, it just isn't logical.) Suggest to verify with someone competent before pestering them or even making more or less veiled threats, or you won't make yourself friends.

That said, I support above expressed wishes for continuation of this data reported in the developer notes.
 
It would be fun to see advanced statistics, maybe some would learn from them, but, given the fact that so many people don't believe a word MA says, yet still play and deposit, nor believe other people with some relevant experience, I am not sure if it would do more good than harm since it will feed the paranoia of the usual whiners :laugh:

I would like to see things similar to 'trip counters' available at the least, something like an open-end ped spending mission that tallies up the costs that go into loot calculations and that can be reset whenever you choose. I would think that this is very close to copy/pasting the code for mob kill counters, except that the cost is logged instead of just "mob=mob+1" or the relevant number of mob maturity points.
