Guild Wars 2

Hickeroar.9734:

So by your logic if you kill 20 people…then die before you can pick up your loot bags…you deserve no reward for your efforts and skill? That sounds pretty ridiculous, and shows a desperation to come up with an argument that really doesn’t exist.

If I kill 20 people, they would be solo kills, and I’d be picking up loot bags one by one. If “we” killed 20 people in a “raid” and I chose not to loot the bags that were easy mode flown to my feet and instead performed some other tactic i.e) pushing into opposing “raid”, it was my choice to not to take the 1/2 second to loot the bags and continue the push, it’s not like one server has an advantage over the other when looting comes into play, you either take it, or leave it. All are re-attainable if you do not die. If you die, deal with it, no reward for dying, as there shouldn’t be.

Hickeroar.9734:

The bottom line is that you benefit your team by NOT worrying about your loot in the moment. If you want to be selfish and collect your loot…you weaken the whole team. You’re basically rewarded for hurting your team.

That’s broken. Argue it all you want, but it’s broken, end of story.

There are many things that benefit your team; overall co-ordination, no underdeveloped players sitting on level 2’s, good leadership, good followers, supply runners, supply protectors, etc etc, but taking the half a second to hit a f key when you see a loot bag is so drastically weakening to the whole team it must be stopped! finish your push, live, and get your loot. Broken is subjective to those who can’t react in time. Maybe I am an elitist if so many people are having such a hard time with this, if you are observant this is the farthest thing from being any issue at all.

Hickeroar.9734:

And don’t do GW2 the disservice of comparing it to Dark Souls. DS is not a MMO. DS also prides itself on punishing players…which is why DS has a very limited scope of interested players.

Aww didn’t think alot of ppl would get the analogy, it’s cool. Disservice being DS is challenging and hard and rewarding via gameplay? with a community that promotes said challenging game play, as opposed to people fighting for looting rights to be automatically injected into there purse after they tagged it once with an arrow and chose to run away from the bag at there feet? ahhh okay.

Hickeroar.9734:

You’re missing the point. The loot isn’t the annoyance. Making it a real pain to actually get what you legitimately deserve IS.

So even though loot now magically floats to your character position after a tag/kill, hitting the f key is now stopping people from getting what they legitimately deserve? interesting, if you could kindly elaborate.

If you die, I really don’t believe you should be entitled to said loot anyways. Not because I am an “elitist” or “pro”, but because it forces you to make that critical decision;

If you want to risk running away from your loot bags, with the thought of getting to them after a “tactic” is completed, you should be aware that you might die and lose your “rewards”

If you want to run around collecting loot while your team is engaged, that’s your prerogative and decision to take yourself out of the battle to collect your rewards.

Ever play Dark Souls? :P
Endless dying, no looting, just rewarding to come out with what you have learned. Same applies for the most part in WvW, the loot isn’t anything to brag about, its all just repair money for the dedicated non-PVE WvW’r.

Parthis.2091:

Guis guis, we got a big man over ‘ere. He’s so pro he sees through the bag at the shinies. If it’s not shiny enough, no shiny is looted.

Selective you see.

He never wipes either. <insert skid marks joke here>

Cute.
“I died because I pushed too hard in my 50 man “raid” but i had loot on the ground I didn’t pickup!" /run2forums

Steelo.4597:

Boasting about how much loot he gets and how soft we are to not want to press F all the time. Three thumbs up at least.

Haven’t boasted about all the loot I get because I am selective of what I pickup, quite the difference and a novel concept. If you can’t be bothered to press F to get loot, you don’t deserve the loot in the first place.

Avenge.1478:

Badges would be treated as currency and instead of taking up a slot in the loot chest, they instead are represented just as gold is in a players personal bank.

QFE

There is an option in this game to manually select your loot, so when a bag is opened you select what you want :P then again I have enough gold to not have to care about selling blue loot for repairs, so maybe I am biased.

Auto-loot would last about maybe 2 zerg rushes (for those who don’t roam solo), depending on your tier, and would be about 15 minutes before you were full.

It’s not enough to have the carrot, now the carrot has to be automatically digested for ya’ll too.

Is it really that hard to not die when running with 50 other players and grab your bags on the return rush? J/W

Musty.3148:

So what do you do now? Just leave the bags on the ground?

Snipe the badges, leave the garbage.

Auto looting badges is feasible IMO due to the nature of the item and it’s stacking size. Everything else is just laziness / garbage drops anyways.

Carried by koreans. CBK, funniest guild tag I’ve seen. +1 to you sirs.

Jumping to T2 is going to be a huge, huge, huge shock for most.
Bandwagoners will definately help with numbers, but the organization that takes place in T3+ is just so indescribably different than anything in the tiers below, 10 fold. But I’m sure most of you know that.

Really excited to see what happens here. Train is about to smash through/get smashed by a wall I think many people chose to not see coming.

Much respect though!
Good luck.

Bandwagoners wow! not directed at OP.

@ First sign of resistance in weeks and they run when its a level playing field :P

I don’t understand why you wouldn’t have transferred off when the big Mag zerg was rolling over the last few tier matchup’s smaller zergs. Blowouts are obviously what you’re craving, the easy win.

Competition is hard.
