Loot!

[Dagger_32]

It was brought to my attention that not everyone knows how the loot system works in Online/Ad Hoc multiplayer so I thought I would explain so no one makes the same mistake I did.

When you are playing multiplayer feel free to pick up every drop you see! Why? Because those drops are only for you, the other players cannot see them!

I was not aware of that until I was playing with someone right next to me. He was just starting as a CAST- Ranger. Twin guns had dropped and I told him to come pick them up. He said he could not see them, I told him he was crazy and looked at his PSP, they were not there! None of our loot was the same and we could not see any of the other person's drops.

Here this whole time I had been playing online and not picking up all the drops because I did not want to be a loot hoarder. *facepalm*

Hopefully others are not making the same mistake I was but if you were, now you know!

I've always been a shameless lootgrubber, so it didn't really occur to me to think if drops were separate or not. I am used to playing by myself, so it's not too surprising that the mentality of 'f@&# off it's mine' formed. ^.^;;

Well, this is good news for when I manage to get online, then; I wont have people getting upset with me when I nab everything. XD

Does this also apply to online multiplayer?

Yes. I had this questions as well earlier, but someone answered it. I was wondering why everything I picked up went to me and there was no option to put it on "Set in Order" or something. I felt like a loot whore.

This is one of the awesome changes that carried over from Zero, along with the dodge roll.

[Eclipsed57]

yep, feel free to loot every drop in sight. they are all reserved for you only
