I have done a radical 180 degree turn on the whole Loot Drop, Inventory, New Weapons thing. Since the last update, the third total reset, I am over it. I have played for a few hours and got drops of Ammo and Potions only.
I agree a little bit. The resets didn't kill it for me, I just don't like inventories that much. Its just one of those things where, it wasn't there to begin with, and it takes some getting used to. Throw in the fact that every other game has it.. POTCO loses some of its uniqueness. But the rate of drops decreasing is also very bothersome at times.

A guild mate said that you have to play in large groups to get good drops in order to encourage crewing up. And that ended it for me. (That and the unmotivated, ridiculous, body style change.) I have never understood trading rep for loot...Anyway, Drew, I hope you find your answers.
Crewing up doesn't increase the amount of good drops you get, it just increases the speed of which you gather them. On test I was playing solo, and got my only new weapons since the reset (not rare, but it was something). Crewed up, got tonics and gold with ammo here and there. Left crew, got a new (old) pair of pants. *What I meant about speed is you can kill stuff quicker*

Just throwing this out there... this update also seems to increase the want to "rep steal". I am not to bothered by it, since test isn't about leveling.. but if it continues on live it will be annoying. It seems that now, all people care about is finding loot, even if it means attacking someone's target.

I hope this helps you out, Drew. It's your call what you do in the end, just remember, your experience and opinions may differ.

I have a simple solution. If it is no longer fun move on. Don't complain, just move on. Conmplaining just to complain is a rather lame. Remember this is just a game, a distraction from lifes dayly grind. If no joy is found playing stop. Find a new pursuit.

There are a lot of MMO's out there try a new one, join there forum. Then complain there on how bored you are! LOL!!

Welcome to life, it gets boring when nothing changes. Make ye own change mate!

Good luck, Godspeed, and Fair Winds on ye journey!

Check it again. Not a single person has complained "just to complain." There are people who like POTCO and hate seeing what it has become. And this is an open forum. Not a Fanboy site. So you can expect differing opinions and intelligent discussion on both sides. No lectures needed about how to live life.

If you want only the opinions you want to hear, then you need to start your own forum.
