If you think this change was meant for people who group with friends you truly are clueless.

I personally like the system they have in place. That been said there is absolutely no point NOT adding the new ones. More verity is great.

GGG do a great job listening to the players.

I thought what I was getting at was pretty clear, but let me try again.

Why are you angry about this change? If you have a good group of friends, loot settings should not matter. I can only assume you are angry because you can no longer take loot from unsuspecting individuals/new players.

For one why do you assume I'm angry? It's possible to turn something down without anger. Are you one of those people who thinks you have to like everything or else you are mad?

Secondly if you are playing with friends and this change doesn't apply to you then why are you commenting?

I assume you're angry about the change being implemented by GGG because you appear to be quitting due to it. Fair assumption IMO. Your logic is boggling my mind right now. My point on friends is exactly that..if you had a good group, this change should not affect you to the point of making you want to quit.

And my point is that if you had a good group of friends you wouldn't be paying attention to this change as it obviously doesn't apply to you by your own admission.

I want to quit because public grouping is non existent. You're right I don't have any friends who play this game they play consoles unfortunately and if I ever do group up again I will undoubtedly be unable to find anything but a permanent allocation loot game in public groups so there is no point in playing anymore.

I guess time will tell but I'm pretty sure I'm right on this one.

I don't blame you if that's your situation. Just thought you were the typical OMG everything belongs to me type of guy. My assumption there was quite wrong. If I still played I'd be happy to group up with you. I'm not coming back until the skill tree doesn't purely depend on life nodes :\

@ bolded:
With more people in group, you have a higher droprate, thus relating to more chances of getting something good drop.
They have made many changes to incorporate "Group" gaming, like being within in radius to get the highest amount of drops when encountering mobs / monster.
If you are out of range and run in later, the droprate will only be for the first lot within range, this also goes with "Chest" runners... they join a FFA game, run ahead
of the group to open chests for more drops, BUT, if they are out of the range of others, the droprate is based on that one person.

Never quit based on assumptions, always give it a go... and, you may find more friends to play with because of the changes by way of joining the groups.

This change is only positive.

Just what I was thinking.
