Hm, somehow I'm loosing the overview of good and bad loots...

I mean, I'm hunting, loot window pops up with plenty of stuff in it. But how much is it?
Don't understand me wrong, I quite like the idea of this oil stuff, but when there were 24 golden coins in my loot window I knew it were 24 PEDs, now there are 245 animal oil residues, 54 pancreas oils, 23 something else oils... You know what I mean.

Imo a good solution would be a little yellow statement in the chat window "The creature carried loot worth 24 PEDs" or something. This would help to keep the overview.
 
I would love that... I've clamored for it for several VUs... and finally I gave up. I'll let you carry the torch for a while :p gl in getting MA to listen :/
 
Or they could display the total of the loot window in the bottom of it. If you don't close it, the total grow up, and you know the average loot.

Or like a soc mate said (he's a miner), a Very poor III or Massive XX on the loot window :laugh:
 
you WILL eventually get used to the value of loot window, just like hunting at cp a bone = 140 peds, resin = some ped etc. etc.

what bones are worth 140 ped ?
 
Yeah it will just take a week or two and you SEE the Peds and Pecs again they just have other names :)

Ask some miners
 
I had no probs working out the value of my loot. :)

just be in a team with most dmg wins all setting
 
Having to do that on every loot is going to suck. They should just put a message saying "This creature held XX.XXped loot"
:rolleyes:

it would have been a REALLY nice touch if MA included a loot value on looting but it wont take long before we ALL adapt :)

that would be nice, total value from each mob pops up... save the time of looking.
 
The team thing is really bad... I liked being able to create equal ped now me and a freind had to do the entire hunt, then divide all of our loot in half then make a trade to make it equal. that's BS, so now I need to drop everything off in storage to make sure I am not splitting loots I already have, and I can't put this stupid oil anywhere. so I got weighed dow and couldn't run... I like the idea and I really like the new VU, but that is horrible...
 
i think having this system, looting items and not peds will make it better for Ex: America,, where online gamble(or something, im not amarican). And putting in a little text where it said "This creature held(won) X ped loot" will take that issue back

Thank you! :dunce:
 
Oo lol dee



ah well, once you have seen loot pop up a few times you know the value of stuff and it gets easy to calculate...(for me anyway) i already see ped/pec and i hardly calculate anymore...and i only logged in once since new vu!
 
The problem is, in the new system there isn't really a striking visual difference between the different tt value oils: they're all more or less grey/blue bottles. It's much easier to take in at a glance silver vs. gold coins.

I like the way MA is going with this, but they need to make the higher value bottles either larger or a more intense color. We need contrast! :wise:

Same is true of the new health bar...
 
i have so far a bit of guideline: if is big, it has more tt :laugh:
