I didn’t know I wouldn’t be able to pick it up again… why would I assume that something taken out of my inventory couldn’t go back in it?
I actually was picking them up anyway, just one at a time, to reset the cooldown. I couldn’t pick up all the bags at once though. I was running between wood station, tp, and bags, refining into planks, buying more mats (sandpaper/lumber), and resetting the bag cooldowns in a rotation. Unfortunately at one point I got encumbered with the slow walk, and I exceeded the 3 minute limit to pick the bags back up.
Ahh so you immediately went on the defensive to justify your own stupidity and therefore anyone that tells you the truth (that you refuse to hear) is a white knight.
Got it.
Because that’s a standard mechanic in the game. When your inventory is full, you can’t pick up any additional loot.
That was a good idea. Ultimately though as you pointed out, you finally encountered a situation where you couldn’t carry out the process quickly enough and you lost everything left. It is the fear of some situation like this - I got distracted, I got disconnected, you name it - that I wouldn’t ever intentionally drop something on the ground that I intended to keep.
Yes, he’s mad about what happened to him. Yes, it seems as though he is putting perhaps more of the blame on Amazon than is their fair share. Let’s not lose track, though, of the fact that he has identified some actual issues, and further offered constructive solutions to those issues.
Sometimes we get so tied up in ‘winning the rhetoric’ that we drown out anything of value that a conversation might have held.
lol don’t get so mad about it. You’re not the one that lost the mats, it’s gonna be ok. : )
I picked up a precision armoring tools, worth 45k on my server, in chest runs the next day so I’m not sweating the gold, it’s just these constant player punishing scenarios that annoy the hell out of me. Just don’t get why it’s like this.
I agree that it need some failsafe protection on TP. I put 500 infused leather at 800g instead of 8g each and it cost me 10k in taxes I didn’t notice because we use coma in French and it bugged when I put 8,00
You should wait until the game gets out of beta before you try to play seriously.
In seriousness, your suggestions are valid, though not very fleshed out. We could discuss these points further and offer AGS productive feedback that they might actually implement.
There is a buyer beware argument that your situation is unfortunate but ultimately your fault.
And your frustration in the beginning of your post is a magnet for the trolls that sense weakness and want to make other people feel as bad about themselves as they feel about themselves.
