Another minor change that bums me out :( MMOs evolve. Change is the only constant.

Aww trion, what the heck? :) **Disclaimer** (this is purely me conveying things Im bummed about. In no way am I asking or expecting any response or change) this game has bigger problems than the little things. Lol.

You keep changing minor things that make the game special imo. If anyone read my last thread they saw I thought rewards were nerfed/glitched as all I kept recieving were whites (so I thought). Ive figured out what has been done.

Trion keeps taking the "little things" that I feel make the game what it is and unique. It has no impact on core gameplay so its eh, but im going to miss the "pop up" notifications the way we knew them. Used to be when I opened a lockbox or claimed the daily or weekly contract reward OR got the end reward at an arkfall results screen, we would get a very colorfull "pop up" window stating what we recieved. (Top pic) Now its gone. Replaced with some flavorless white text notification on the side of the screen and in the chat window. (Same as the bottom pic below)

It doesnt signify what rarity the item is. Now I have to go into my inventory and sort by level & scroll past the favorites to check the latest item thats been added. When your inv is 400 this can get repetatively annoying.

The old pop up still happens when I claim items from claims. Im a bit baffled why they removed it from lockbox items and rewards. There are surely bigger problems to work on than messing with things that work. :(

Ok, dissapointment over. But my weekly gift videos will look rather dull now. Grrrr

EDIT: ADDED INFO:

Heres a few videos that show im getting the colored when item goes to claims with full inv. And I get the white when they go into my inv if theres space.

First, with no inventory space (colored)

I have alot more but they all support the same results.
Just click the pictures and press play
These are for the defiant few daily giftf.
Ill post some of other instances soon.

I though this was a bug, didn't realise this was something that needed "fixing"

very bummed about this addition.

Yep this change was terrible.

Im just expressin my opinion, not bi##hin at all for a change back. But im glad im not the only one unhappy about this. No matter how trivial.

Until now I still hope this "change" is a bug as this is currently my gratest issue with that horrible patch.
I really liked that on screen notification as it gave you a quick grasp of what you got. Now its really cumbersome, as OP already pointed out. :mad:

I seriously hope they change it back or make it an gameplay option to enable/disable on screen loot popups!

Virpy

Ok, now im thinking its just a bug...... as its only giving the flavorless white notification on my 2 main toons. Just collected the gifts on my 2 alts and they had the colorfull text notification.

Can a mod move this to ps3 bugs and issues??

Phantasietrion rashere LoCarb .......anyone? Lol

Can't even tell what is intentional and what is a bug anymore.
I know... READ THE PATCH NOTES. But damn there's a lot going on.

Yessir. Definately. I did read through though and there wasnt a change to notifications listed. At first i thought it was intentional and just a ninja change. But its working on some toons and not working on others. Im baffled, lol

I've got the same thing. Just white notifiers on the left of the screen. I miss the old coloured notifiers.

Hey there folks, we'll bring this up with the Defiance team. Thanks for reaching out to us about this.
