Gravity Wells leave a messy mess

Kinjer System Patrol, the last part, after you tractor Madran's ship and drag him back to you allies, a TRIBBLE-storm of Terrans warp in. With a moderately-chunky GW3, it's hilarious. Like popcorn.

Alt of mine I call Boudicca, flying a Multi-Mission Surveillance Explorer T-5U. I was working on an Endeavour to do 500K Plasma damage. GW doesn't do plasma, obviously, but it clusters them up nicely for TS with a PEP torpedo.

    Looks familiar.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    lol awesome thread title and screen shot! That is a great patrol mission for space litter. Give a hoot and don't pollute! pick up your trash and litter! lol :smile:

    in this game, loot drops make little to no sense...none of the drops serve an actual purpose. It ain't relevant gear, the batteries are the worst items for the slot and the commodities are vendor trash.
    They are not only immersion breaking, but even gameplay breaking with their continuous pop ups and additional glowy-glow.
    I say delete all drops, give performance based mission rewards as EC or items.
    The game would be objectively better with those changes.

    I have to agree with the above statement to a degree. I pick it up to clear the clutter on screen because it does break immersion, and discard everything after the match for energy credits or salvage. It's weird, I'm not saying the items are trash because there's alot of decent stuff once its upgraded, its more like I already have the gear I'm interested in so it gets recycled. I think it's better to offer it as loot than remove it, especially if your new and you want to try different weapons and consoles at basically no cost. I do get some satisfaction in seeing a debris field like in the op screenshot. Like space is littered with broken ship pieces after you decimated an entire fleet! Escape pods would be fun to tractor/collect in the middle of the flotsam. lol It could have prisoners or doffs that you can choose the fate of. lol

    Xbox and PS already have it. I can't understand why PC hasn't.

    Many have been asking for autoloot, we just seem to be ignored.

    The thing that sucks is when you’re spamming the F key to collect it all when the doggone “Warp Out” window pops, and you leave the system without all your semi valuables…

    Grrr

    You could try asking in the monthly Q&A thread about it.

    I would add it, but the threads been closed. Guess we'll have to wait until they start a January version of the Q&A. Also doing a search shows that this is something people have been asking for since 2011.

    Well... the Q&A thread is a good chance to potentially hear from the Devs about the subject. If your question doesn't get picked, just try again with the next one. There's no harm in asking.

    Also handy for those Endeavors that call for you to scavenge a certain amount.
