Personally, I'd like to see an expanded Chern map, going farther west & north. Maybe a very, very large city to the NE on the coast, more villages/towns to the west.

Just sayin guys, but the hangars should spawn nothing but helo and car parts. Leave the guns in the barracks...or even better, have a 'armory' on the base like in RL.

Personally, I'd just like to see other areas added on to the current map, i.e., you go west along the coast and hit another map area, etc., instead of just cluttering up the current awesome map.

Helos are the best for rare military gear. However, they are often the only place you can get ammo for them too. I LOVE the Zeds with canned food. Check those bodies guys....

Just got to say that the assumption that coop/groups would lead to less PvP is interesting. There is 0 evidence of that, and it is impossible in the current game. The only thing you could do is to make it impossible for players to shoot one another (e.g., guns dont work on humans only Zeds). And that would ruin much of the game. The odd assumption that a group of people are somehow less likely to kill others...odd. Instead of one Bandit, you have 25. Are 25 B's less likely to shoot than 1? Odds are, they are MORE likely to kill on sight--they know their clan and they know you aren't in it. Just saying that a push to force people into groups may not have the effect of lessening PvP and may in fact make it worse.

As odd as it sounds, I'm more likely to trust someone if I'm part of a large group. Nothing lubricates the trust machine like being covered by an M240 and 10 guys.

sadly, no. We have a lot of doing nothing--you know how that is--but somehow always forget to do a vid when we are doing something cool.

Last night on Dallas 50, our crew was raiding Cherno and Electro-about 8-10 guys and a vehicle. Very heavily armed (.50 sniper rifles, an M240 and so on). Ran into, and killed, a good half dozen moderately well armed players. So what you say? Well, some poor newb, fresh off the beach, comes in. And you know what? We let him live. Told him where we'd left less primo gear (e.g. "go to the fire house, there's a shotgun there") and wished him luck. Our general philosophy--given that we all have to start at 0 all the time--is to not kill unarmed players. No challenge, no fun, no profit. Just mindless shooting of the Beach Boys deadens the game, when compared to stalking another sniper or taking on another looting team.

put wire ONLY in military bases and farms. no spawn in cities (how many office buildings have concertina wire spools in the lobby?).

actually not a bad idea at all. Everyone (incl me) keeps saying "THIS IS AN ALPHA." Ok. Let's test the Alpha. Reset character to start with every major patch. Would make a lot more sense and clear up hoarding, et al.

he's such a hacker chheeeter. ;) CZ,shotty and winnie in one barn. I usually get empty cans :)

Simple fact. Teaming with others enables supreme ganking. Example: Our crew hit NWAF. Brought a big army truck we'd fixed up, and 8 of us went in. Two non-Us folks were on the AF running toward the hangars. They saw us, began to sprint. I cut them down with the machine gun. Rest of teh crew hit the hangers, et al, set up perimeter security while I provided fire support and overwatch with the 7.62. Bottom line: teamwork and coop are not a guarantee of happy friendly time. The only way you can guarantee that is to prevent players from shooting each other 100% of the time. Not all groups are friendly and cooperative outside of their gang. Just sayin. On the other hand, a large bandit gang can actually do cool stuff--build vehicles, rescue team mates who have just respawned a new character, reequip teammates who need gear and so on.

what he said. Killahs gonna kill. Bunnies are going to snuggle. game is what you make it, don't nerf it for one side or another.

No, I think what the OP says is ABSOLUTELY TREUE!!! (snark on) DA ADMINSIS LOVES TO KILL YOU FOR THE LEE ENFIELD! it is the most awesomeisets gun of the world. Extremely rare. Only found in the woods outside of NE Airfield in a barn marked "danger pumas" and inside a crashed helo.!!! (snark off) C'mon man. Fact 1: Admins can't kill you. If you get a mass kill, it is a hacker/script kiddie murdering people. Fact 2: Ever notice sometimes when you spawn in that you hear sounds for a couple of seconds. Umm. Bad news man. Sometimes your l33t hero is standing right where you logged off looking like a doofus. Happens to us all. Nothing freaks me out than a random respawn point in the middle of a field. Run, run, run Gingerbread. Like another dude said, you'll get better stuff and lose it.
