It's a bit like a more drawn out version of DX: human Revolution hacking withou the. Eneit of quicksaveGǪ sure decisions matter a little, but so does luck.
The loot scattering is fun though nd an interesting way of incentivsing group play and not really letting multiboxing be a substitute.

Ask yourself: why is it generally a non-group activity? Could it be because the only effect of doing it as a group is less rewards for everyone? It seems entirely logical to me to try to incentivise group play in anything, because if it doesn't work like that right now, it's probably because it's poorly designed.

GǪand if that's what attracted them, then it still will do that since the solo activity part is not being changed.
Brooks Puuntai wrote:It's a non-group activity because it takes 1 person to scan 1 person to hack, and with no rats or any defense there really is no co-op aspect to it. Adding in group activity in looting doesn't promote co-op, it promotes people waiting around for someone else to do every thing and then get loot. GǪand now those tasks can be parallelised without people losing money over it.

Quote:Saying that the pinata sets the framework for further development on group activity in profession sites, is why it is backwards logic. GǪand is also nothing anyone is saying.

GǪand while waiting around there (hell, even while being fleet-warped there), they can look around for other stuff. There's no need for them to just sit around and be bored.
