I am officially giving up on the game. No more.
Playing last stand is a joke. I die in 3 seconds due to stronger builds than mine or players moving like chickens without a head or in circles. I don't know...it's just stupid.
I tried farming for better gear. Now think for a second: there's gotta be a limit where you feel rewarded and able to put time and try a build, right? Nope. You play the same missions over and over, never getting decent drops. All garbage.
I simply can't get a decent Barrett's chest ot the skull mc gloves, ferro mask...never. I've been playing for 6 months? Not sure...and I simply won't try to kill all the bosses in pve for the 1000th time to see if the damn gloves will drop. Not after hearing braggers saying they got 3 in a row. How ****ty is the algorithm, then? What day of the month is the Skull MC gloves drop day? You gotta be f*** kidding with your community. No wonder some players report they tried for hours and days with no luck. It was the wrong day, wasn't it? Lol.
I will bet the developers know what I am talking about and can't or won't do anything about it.
Going to the dz solo...well, good luck with that. Rogues should not be allowed to stage a hijack inside extraction areas. The game already provides enough stupid drops and loosing the less ****ty ones from the DZ should be prevented somehow. So maybe the developers will eventually come up with a working algorithm or system to track you drop history so you see consistency and evolution or make less difficult for you to become competitive. Again, there's gotta be some trade off for the non-sense bad gear drops. It feels like playing a casino game and I bought this POS to have fun and reward not to feel frustrated.
Then comes inventory management: heard they will come up with "something" by summer...I will be long gone. Good luck with that as well. What a slap in my face...you must be fixing the upside down moon cause that's much more important.
So yes, I am giving up on the game. I honestly believe they patch the patch over the patch and then patch that patch and nothing gets better.
"Looters are fun because it's fun finding loot that I will never use" - Loot "RPGs".
The entire point of this game IS for it to be a casino. It's a lottery in the background with some glitter and lipstick on the top to make it resemble something else. I wouldn't call that this was a malicious intention, but the game focused to much on lottery and to little on the actual game.

It's not funny or even frustrating any more. It's sad.
I'm beginning to understand that anyone who doesn't play the same way as Art is clearly in the wrong. Always. Every time. Play the Way of Art or GTFO.Originally Posted by mckrackin5324 Go to original post
No, not play the game, live life. The world according to Art.Originally Posted by Sircowdog1 Go to original post

Just for you OP my list of exotics since day 1 of the game.when they drop I don't go looking for them I don't use any of them atm no need to.
9 x skull gloves all crap bar 1
4 x Caduceus all crap
4 x Tenebrae all crap
2 x shortbows knee pads 1 crap and 1 half good
2 x ninja bags both crap
1 x Warlord meh at best
1 x midas meh at best
1 x showstopper which is ok.
I wanted exotic loot so I looked at the best way to get it. Farming LZ bosses is the worst method for the reasons you mentioned. Last stand? Well if you like PVP (in this game) maybe but not for me. So that left me with 2 real options, Weekly reward cashes. These guarantee, let me repeat that, GUARANTEE, exotic drops. Is it grindy? yep, is it worth it? Questionable.
But the fact is that by playing Survival to get 20,000 points and doing the weekly mission has me swimming in the damn stuff, I have every item, multiples of most items and a respectable exotic build to show for it.
Would I rather not go into the DZ? Darn tooting, I hate the place but 50 faction kills is no great hardship really, it's not like we loose anything if we get ganked apart from another tiny piece of our soul and faith in the human race.
Find a check point near the faction kills you need, go to an area close to said checkpoint and kill faction members, return to checkpoint to reload, keep an eye on the map, anything red nearby? Wait or go do the missions or collect the items you need, rinse and repeat.
I know RNG is frustrating.Originally Posted by sandrini_mafia Go to original post
But unfortunately the fact some people get 3 while you get none is just that...frustrating because it's random.
You have as much chance of getting 3 in a row as you do of never getting any.
I have yet to to see a single MDR, a decent exotic (gear or weapon), nor any of the named pieces like Barretts or Bliss, and I have farmed bosses, run the DZ, gotten DZ supply drops, and re-run missions etc...
Out of interest, would it be better, from a drop point of view, to play some of the harder content with a team, the assumption being the very hardear content will drop the very best loot?
Or is that too much like common sense for this game?
Have you tried that already?
Or should it make no difference?
Art is very bitter...about what, I have no idea.Originally Posted by mckrackin5324 Go to original post
