I would like to see a bigger map with more places to hide camps, I only use tents as decoys as they are to easy to find. Barrels are my preferred storage option as they are easier to hide. I also spread them out. I was on a high pop server and some of my stashes lasted at least a month before being found. What got me was it was the more well hidden barrels that were found. You had to walk into them to find them they were not visible any other way. And I go for once a place is found it is compromised. And as I'm an inquisitive person I go most places and I do think is this a place people will go. Due to that I have found some stashes. Although after sevens comments I will have to look a bit harder to find that sweet spot :)

Thanks Seven. But where is the fueling point on the car? I have had the jerry can in my hands, but haven't found the point for refuelling.

Can cars be refuelled?

Will try another server and see what its like.

Not sure if it would be correct, but I play on UN 2 server and after the initial start I haven't found any hunter backpacks and barrels are real scarce. Searched all of Chpaevsk, Novoselky and Dubky and only found 1 barrel and I have been all over the map in high and low traffic areas and nada. I'm woundering if wheels and jerry cans are taking up to many slots as they are the main items I find in barrel locations. Plus is it me or are there way to many guns and not enough mags for them? I know they have reduced ammo, but did they have to do that by reducing the number of magazines? When not make them spawn in empty, can't be that hard.

Yep they need to do something about base building tents stick out a mile even the mil one. I tend to use barrels scattered around the map and even they get found quit regularly. Dean Hall said he would like you to think about whether you would steal or not if you found some ones camp like the time he was in the army and found some ones camp and left it alone. Well I can say people in this game have no problems in stealing even if they are items you can get after a little searching. And I have to say I steal from other peoples camps as I have been stolen from so often I have no qualms in doing it.

What a morning. I took 3 rounds and survived. And thanks heroichobo for not taking me completely out. By the way that was a good shot and I hope you got the person that took the other shots at me. I just have to get my health back still in blurovision after 30 mins. It would be nice to meet you heroic under a less stressful situation. Well my M65 jacket is ruined, but I have gained a pristine ballistic vest which was worn. Not bad form that encounter.

Well i met a real friendly guy. Comes behind me with his shot gun and shoots me. Wouldn't mind if I was a real threat, but was not that well kitted out and he ruined it all with shooting me. He could have avoided me or asked for what he wanted I did ask him before he took me completely out. Oh well his loss not mine as I can get what I lost in 2 hours if that.

Is any one else loosing items in barrels. I placed 2 canteens in a barrel returned 30 mins later and they had gone. And no I don't think some one stole them as there were only another 4 people on the server and there was some hi end loot in the barrel that was still there. Also lost an AK74. I thought some one might have taken it, but the ammo for it was still in the barrel. So why not take the ammo for it? If any one else has found this let me know as I will report it as a bug. And no after loging back in the items ha dent returned as I know they con still be in a container but not visible. This is not the case they have gone.

Having played the game for some 1300 hrs and having set up a few small bases one of the things I have noticed is how easy they are to spot. It would be good if you could use the branches you get from trees to add some camo to the tents to break there outline and colour. The same could be said for barrels. Also may be make some parts of the forest really dense to hide things/camps in. Also bigging holes to hide barrels and cover them in branches and earth to hide them. I'm thinking they could look into this when other things are sorted within the game.

I'm not having much luck at the moment. Every time I get on I have about 10 mins play then the servers go down lol. Never mind.

What no 1pp servers for today's new build :( .

What no 1pp servers on this build?

Well I had a good experience in svetlo. Used my cr75 to take out a zed, the nest thing I know 2 more zeds come around the corner. I take them out this went on until I had taken out 7 zeds. Nice to see they are attracted to gun shot noises now. I have a sporter 22 which is a lot better as it doesn't draw the zeds in.

Its good to here Jon that they are looking at mags with no ammo. Its about time.

Is it me, but are magazines for weapons a bit scarce at the moment. We have gone from lots of mags and a few weapons to lots of weapons and few mags. I thought they were making ammo scarce not mags for weapons. Because I have been finding a lot of ammo so not short of that lol. Now I don't mid the high end weapon mags being hard to find, but low end weapons like the 22 should not be as hard to find. I have a 22 and have been searching for the mag, but no luck so far :-(.

I do agree with you Moeb1us it would be good if some guns came with ammo and a mag attached to it (not all). Although I could see people taking the ammo/mag and leaving the gun. Because at the moment I'm finding lots of guns, but not many if any mags for them. I do like it that you are finding sks ammo in civ places now as there are civ guns that use it. I also like the fact that not much of it is around, but enough to take out zeds. I did do that at zelen, but had to think about it as I didn't have lots of it and it was making a noise so went in with the axe in the end. I do hope that the devs get around to attaching mags and ammo to guns soon as it was asked for quite a while ago and it shouldn't be that hard for them to implement and add to the loot list. I would rather that than a car to be honest with you.

What's happened to sewing and leather kits? I haven't found 1 yet after a reasonable amount of looking inside sheds and houses. I find it hard to believe that people are hoarding them lol.

Thanx for the heads up xcapx

Well the first iteration of 0.59 exp needs a lot of work doing to it. I can see by the bug reports there is quite a bit of fixing to be done. I think I will wait a few weeks now for them to fix some of these things before trying exp again. I do hope they fix them quickly so more people go on exp to give them better data. I'm not complaining I know its exp and I expect problems. This one for me just killed it. Placed a protective box in tree and now I cant do anything with it. I hope you can see the screen shots. http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198062306612/screenshots/

My first impressions of exp. I'm having lag with items in my inventory and hands, can see things on the ground, but do not appear in the local area when in inventory screen (this does not happen all the time). Seen only 1 zed so far. And the high rises have less loot in them than .58 as far as I can tell. And I have to get used to the new energy and hydrated bars. Seams to take a lot of time to get hydrated from a well. And you stay hydrated, energized and stuffed for a lot longer than in .58. And not all people are friendly some one attacked me when I logged back in after being kicked from the server. Never mind I got away from them and if they had killed me I had very little on me. Visit Cherno its such a friendly place lol.

I came across 2 zeds on un 1 in Novo. They surprised the hell out of me. I do have screen shots just don't know how to paste them onto here to show you all.

Is any one else find the little loot on private servers. I have been playing on UN 02 mainly and there is very little loot to find on it any more. Even up north the towns have little in them now. My friend on UN 02 has played on the public servers and says there is more to find.

Is it me, but every town i have been to has very little loot in it. That is right across the map the coast is the worst of coarse with next to nothing. It used to be once in land it was not so bad. To be honest with no infected in the game it's not really an issue, but when they return it would make the game incredibly hard more so for a fresh spawn. I had a spawn at svet and after looking through half the town I found about 10 items in total. And no weapons of any sort. That would not be very good if the place was full of infected. And yes I have gone to the next town and the next and the next and none of them had much in them before you tell me that the devs said if nothing at the first goto the next. This is just my experience of the game so far I can guess some of you might have been having a different one.

Glad I'm not the only one having problems with camps. I have made a few and on most of them I have nothing bigger than a taloon for storage. Once I get 3-5 within close proximity I get lag on moving items/picking things up. The bags are full. One camp is over 145 meters long with about 5 bags spread over that length and I still get the item lag.
