The loot doesn't feel like live, why?
Loot in SPT comes from thousands of runs of offline raids per map. We gather this data up and determine averages for each item seen.
We're reasonably confident the volume of loot matches live but we're not 100% sure the choices of items placed is 1-1 with live.
Until the day BSG store all loot data in the client, we'll have to make do with what we have.
