It would be a fine system if it: Had a constant probability of getting an item which would go up or down with certain actions, and then slowly come back down to a baseline (Similar to how crit probabilities are calculated with damage).
Actions, for example: - Making it more likely when you are winning - Making it more likely qhen you top the scoreboard (with like 3+ players) - Making it more likely when you get MVP - Making it more likely when you've done a high amount of damage (like crit chances) - Making it more likely for the character that your playing - Making it less likely when you've already got an item, - Making it more when you get rows of kills and when dominating - Boost chance when you get an achievement, boost it even more if you have a certain number of achievements, (well maybe not this!!! since this is what valve were tyring to take away!) - Decrease chances for every bot on the server!!! (even completly) - Increases with the length of time that you play - Increases depending on how long you've had the game - and base it on previous stats! Valve must store these somewhere..... This system could be amasing, but it needs *a bit* of work.
