[dev1007] Voidwatch: Obtaining Spoils

[Nynja]

Alright, lets be honest, SE isnt going to change the VW loot pool distribution, they're pretty adamant about it, its not gonna chance. Perhaps we could look to a solution where X player is getting 3 rare/ex bodies in 4 runs, and players A-F have yet to see one? Someone suggested on "that cesspool of bots and bots" forum a check is done where if player X already has a rare/ex item, and one is supposed to load in their chest, it will (behind the scenes) move to someone elses chest who doesn't have one of the item already.

No. If everyone checks except the person who is getting the body and he has it, then it loads to no one. This explanation is no different than the Bercus interviews in terms of total amount of tard happening from the DEVs.

Sooo you think everyones drops are generated the moment they check the chest? I'm PRETTY sure the game establishes who got what before they examine the chest...
