Again and again, loot allocation don’t change anything about loot system, it just allows people to pick up loot assigned to them if they want to, without the need to worry about scripters or bad connection or a bit of lag at that moment.
good! have a nice day 
Yeah in case you didnt know Blizzard takes their sweet time making expansions, like years. How fast do you think it should take to make an expansion? By that time 3d graphics were a thing. Why make expansion for D2 in 3d graphics? Doesnt D3 sound more exciting and profitable? What dont you understand?
When I first played D3 the point was just to beat diablo on inferno because the game was so hard.
By the time I left it was to farm up gear and legendary gem levels and main stat to finish as high up the ladder as possible.
You made friends formed groups and played four mans for exp for main stat and legendary gem levels which led to people being relegated to support roles. Which was pretty boring in the end to be honest and was why I stopped playing.
But for quite a while it wasn’t that bad we just used to chill out talking and grinding exp legendary gems and the very occasional item upgrade.
tl;dr ladder placement was your goal how high a gr could you manage to handle before season end. People probably still do it now.
only thing u need to worry is that if ur slow…again and again…adding optional loot system ain’t Qol change it would be core change! NOT HAPPENING
Of course it changes it, you are demanding a radical change to the loot system in D2 and then telling us that it doesn’t change loot. What a contradictory position to take on your own ideas.
Why should loot be “assigned” to anyone? If you want loot, open a game and go questing for it, it’s that simple. I don’t think you actually understand the loot system in D2. Apart from the beta, have you ever played it? Serious question.
They should contract it out to Greybeard Games.
You seem to have a hard time incorporating the variable “optional”. Without understanding that key point, the only person you’re arguing against is yourself. Not him, not me. We’re presenting different arguments that you aren’t actually responding to at all.
If there was an entirely seperate server for the few ploot advocates then sure, that’s fine, so long as the items you get cannot ever find their way into the traditional D2R server then that’s fine.
Because I have seen countless times what happens, you get your ploot because you want to be assigned items instead of standing on your feet and finding them, and then once you get ploot and you aren’t swimming in HR’s like you thought you would be, you will then demand of blizzard increased drop rates (like you guys did in D3), so if it’s just a seperate server for you guys to stand around and get “assigned” loot, then sure that’s okay.
That new diablo team thats working right now from what I heard are top notch.
Silly trolls. Hahahahaha. It doesn’t change anything about items dropped, it just allocates items lets say to the game party leader in public game that someone is running,cause he wants some company while farming but don’t wants to deal with stolen loot.
Anyway continue with your trolling attempts, game will change no matter if you want it or not.
You cant make a claim that the “game will change no matter if you want it or not” without proof. The survey says otherwise. Majority picked no ploot. So that make you the troll, who is also mis informed. Since links arent allowed here, you can find the survey results by typing diablo_ii_resurrected_change_or_no_change_survey
Nobody is trolling you, we just have a different opinion and want to keep the game as it was always intended, though I understand that this is often confused with “trolling” by the post-modernists.
Of course it will change the items dropped, because this will be your next demand, we have seen it a thousand times before, just look at what you did to D3.
I cannot think of something more disruptive to the D2 community than this. Assigning the loot to the “party leader” because he doesn’t want loot “stolen”? What do you mean “stolen”? It isn’t his!
And this gets perfectly onto why you want ploot, and I have said this before and seen this trait in every ploot advocate I have encountered, and you just proved it, when you are in public games, you see every single gold coin that drops as ‘yours’, rightfully, in your mind, all loot in any game you are in should belong to you, every single gold coin, and it angers you that others in the public game can collect things, doesn’t it?
Hmm they do take a long time to release a game but lets take a look at expansion times between release. Diablo 2 released in 2000, and the expansion came out 1 year later in 2001. D3 released in 2012 and the expansion came out in 2014. So it looks like they take about 1 to 2 years per expansions.
So what I don’t understand, is why there wasn’t a 3rd expansion for D2 in say 2002/2003? I mean, if we’re saying only popular games deserves expansions and those that don’t, are failed games.
Blizzard was focused mostly on their top money maker Wow. Also they were working on multiple other projects like Starcraft ghost that later became abandoned for some reason before the release. D2 at the time didnt need any expansions, it was doing fine. They cared more about making wow expansions. D2 was popular and so was Starcraft but nowhere close to beating Wow
hmm
well i guess he has a good point
World of Warcraft is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game released in 2004 by Blizzard Entertainment.
um, well this is awkward
Released in 2004 and how many years of work does it take to bring a game to its release? They probably started working on wow shortly after D2 or even before. Blizzard like I said likes to take their time. Are you suggesting that they started only working on such a huge mmo game like wow in 2004 and then released it shortly after lol?
You are spitting nonsense as usual. Stolen or picked up by other people when you want to pick up it as well, doesn’t matter how you put it. Party leader or game owner/admin should have right to pick first, the other people can pick up whats left there after that.
You don’t have any valid arguments whatsoever, without loot allocation I’m not even running any public mp games or joining ones. In FFA system you by hosting a game can be left with nothing and that’s disrupting.
Lol. How is ploot related to all this? I still prefer d3 mult over d2 and at least there I use it occasionally. Here if no single player favored loot system is implemented, I won’t even bother starting multiplayer game, even with friends, it is pointless like this.
wow was made by blizzard entertainment d2 and d3 until it was canceled the first time was made by blizzard north. 2 different studios both owned by Vivendi. Also d2 was their top money maker at the time because wow had made no money 2 years before it was released.
