Bah, yeah, I couldn't pick up a piece of loot. If it was UBER and 1 of a kind I might get as mad as you, but it was just an Engine that normally sells for 30K.
So, what were you saying?
I have encountered many issues with not being able to pick up loot since the last patch.
But, even though reported, have not and don't expect to hear anything about it from Cryptic.
I chalked it up as the Team Leader was an TRIBBLE and set "Master Looter" (or whatever the setting is called), so I immediately left the team.
Were all of you in Teams at the time this happened? Or not?
this was posted yesterday so at least they are aware of it.
Here's the trick... if you click 'get items' or 'take all' and nothing happens, double click the item itself!! So far, every time I do that it pops it into my inventory.
At least there's a workaround while we wait for a fix...
Had "earlier" incidents as well, but back then I hardly knew the difference of white and gold drops, pointing to the potential ownership of these items, so the "earlier" experiences could be erroneous memories, overwritten by newer ones, if this is indeed something new.
But I could swear the problem appeared weeks ago. With that said, some inventory transfers are affected by occasional latency, as in delayed updates of inventory movement. So there is a chance these earlier situations was caused by a similar event.
In conclusion, these cases of "stuck" or "unrecoverable" loot, is not a completely unfamiliar situation for this user, although not a predominant issue as of these last few days.

I had it happen twice recently, once on ground, once in space, when I was not teamed.
I've had this happen too, but was not in a team at the time. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't - I haven't noticed a pattern yet. :mad:
1 time blue eng console mk6 another time mk6 weapon.
Yup, that works for me too. If you can't grab the item double left click the line in the window, or click on it to highlight it and hit the Take all.
Oh wow!!! You got em with that tricky lil move huh? /hi5!!! I bet as soon as some Mod or Dev reads this they'll be like "Oh, I'm banning this dude" only to read more and they'll realize you just PWND them!
And why the hell does everyone keep calling someone who doesn't leave right when they do for the same reason a "fanboi"?
I've had it once or twice, normally just rapidly clicking will eventually pick it up. Its a know bug, and I've only seen it in DSEs so far. Not sure if its only high level, but they are working on it.
The best thing to do, is when it happens, keep that 'pick up' prompt open, and use that 'Bug Report' feature to help the Dev's track this issue down... (but it was sort of hard doing that in-between attacks from damaged Borg Spheres and Cubes...)
There are already several of these threads in the Gameplays Bug forum, so its better to make posts in one of those then here...
When it happened while my wife and I were running together, we figured out why (I think). Our PCs are on the same desk (corner desk) and we can see each others' monitors; the globe was yellow to both of us. She picked it up first, and when I tried (it was still there and yellow to me) the item showed in the box, but I was unable to take it.
This happened later on a ground mission, only I was the one able to get the item (by clicking first). The sad part is, the one who received the item both times got a minor item; the items we were not able to retrieve were shields and dual cannons.
I don't know for sure that this is the answer, but it has happened this way multiple times when my wife and I were running together, always the same way.
Hmmm.... do you think this may have something to do how the loot protocol was set up by the team leader? Instead of round robin or need/greed a kind of free-for-all? That doesn't make sense tho.
Like I said - if this happens, double-click the item and it should move to your inventory... does for me.
Anyhow, with the trolling from the quote above asside,
If the Take All button doesn't work.. try double clicking the item in the dialogue box itself.. it works every time and it is a no - brainer.
Usually this happens on group setting of Need/Greed with the Loot options set to green or higher, thus it effects common items the most. A simple double click of the item icon and it goes into your inventory.. simple work around.
Always works for me.. sometimes I have to close the window and re-Open, but so far, no loot left behind.
Protocol was set to round robin (I was the team leader). We'll try double-clicking the item itself; thanks for the tip.
I'm having no luck with this. I'm soloing and I've tried double-clicking loot, coming in from different directions, dragging and dropping, clicking the "Take" and "Take All" buttons.
I even tried changing my default party loot setting but it won't change from Round Robin. It's stuck there. Shouldn't matter because I'm not in a team but who knows?
It's very frustrating picking up loads of worthless batteries and anomalies then finding rare stuff and you can't access it. I've had this happen a couple times today and it seems random (in a deliberately malicious way as it's only the good loot I can't snag).
Edit: In frustration I was about to relog. Then suddenly, just before I hit the Log Out button, a series of system messages flashed before my eyes. My loot default suddenly changed and I acquired the item.
This must be lag related. Some elements of the engine seem to have different priorities when the system is stressed. You can fly and fight and talk but changing gameplay options and looting seems to be delayed. Unless my attempt to log out triggered something. Or someone responded almost instantly to my bug report (which I find unlikely).
