The new way Tents are placed is a bit of an issue. Its not where tents are being placed, its that now the tent bag, or whatever you want to call it, sits in the back corner of the erected tent and you have to access that to take it down (unlike how it used to be) so if you can't access that, then you're stuffed and you can't take it down. You can't delete the erected tent with admin tools and are left with resetting the spawn timer for all the tents of the type affected to get rid of it. So the big issue now is the change that has been made with the tent only being dissembled from something that can be fairly easily clipped into an object.

Chenarus is a Game Hunter's paradise. With all the Hunting Stands, Hunters Huts and multitude of feed troughs scattered across the land, the only thing missing is the game itself. In 0.57 Stable after many many hours played across multiple servers I've seen and shot 2 Boar, 1 Deer, a Pig, a Sheep and 2 very lonely Cows. This is nothing like the amount seen on previous releases I'm sure there's a reason for the major nerf game animals have had in the spawn rates and locations. But it does however a frustrated game hunter make.

More AK furniture - Specifically Plum, and 45 rd Mags for the AK 74.

It's still very early but I'm not sure about it, tbh I'm probably leaning more in the direction of 'its not good'. I don't play on the coast at all, for me the coast is something at my back as I move inland to explore but I've found persistent loot to be, well, broken or just plain weird. The broken - I joined a random Priv hive as a freshie and spawned at the boat north of 'Zino. I searched the boat - nothing (at all), ran to Svet - nothing here either, ran to Chernaya - nothing and it's there i died of starvation. So I tried again. Spawned at Kamy - nothing. Ran to Msta - nothing, Staroye- nothing, Guglovo - nothing, Stary - nothing, well I couldn't search it all as I died of starvation once again. And when I say nothing I mean not a single item at all, so that's not a positive however new the implementation is. The weird - Another random Priv hive but this one had loot! HUZZAH! Although finding just dresses on Military trucks, High cap vests in residential houses, Sheds with medical loot, and Gate houses (or whatever they're called) overflowing with weapon loot made little sense at all. Oh and pickaxes and hardhats in Military Barracks....and nothing else. Before the new loot economy was enabled, where the loot spawned made sense. Now not so much. I understand the desire to force the player to scavenge everywhere for the gear needed to survive and I'm all for making the game tougher to survive and have no problem with learning how to loot again after 1362 hrs played, but looting through Pustoshka and finding TTSKO in almost every house that had loot is odd. I also saw very little sign of loot respawing even though I played for around 10hrs straight on one server. Perhaps not long enough for the respawn timer to kick in? Only a Dev could answer that one (Oh, and Tents can disappear when you pitch them and the same with fires but it differed from server to server if this would happen or not.) So, Yes its new but after giving it a good go I'm not convinced whats been delivered should have been in its current form, and that's disappointing.

Yesterday, I'm afraid. You can very unwittingly dupe an item in game and it scares the bejezus out of me.

Persistence, in my experience, is still not working. Heli crashes, like you have experienced, are not spawning loot as they should. Found quite a few on 'Persistence on' servers with this issue. I avoid Persistence enabled servers now as I know the loot spawn is still not working as it should.

exsanguinated - I had to look that up. Mighty Fine wordage. In this situation I would of raged for 5 or so minutes, but given in and respawned. As someone else mentioned, gear schmear. Theres plenty of Loot to be found (as long as its not on a persistent server). And posting it on here is a good thing. Makes the Dev's aware that the 'unconscious' mechanic is'nt quite working as intended and needs a little work. All part of the process (however painful it is at the time for us, the gamer)

Not at all. Its one of those games that it is what you make it. I have many char's across Private Hives that are geared for differing playstyles (Farmer, Full Ghillie, Survivor/Hunter, Bambi rush) plus Public Char for pure PVP/Banditry. I Love this game. 1103 Hrs and counting hints I may have a problem.

As mentioned, crash sites only. Would make more sense to have these spawn elsewhere as they're not that rare an item IRL (I have 2 and am neither in the Military or Fly a helicopter). The M65 has gone straight in as one of my most fave items in game. Currently sporting a khaki one and I feel luxuriously bad a$$.

Just to add to this, I've not experienced what the OP has but a heads up - If you're driving a truck and Dayz crashes with the new mem leak error, you die.

No Scope or compensator on Mosin. No buttstock or mags on AKSU. Anyone know? Majorly sad panda here.

This topic warms the heart of another old time gamer. I'm not sure i have enough beans to go around

The Ghillie is seriously cool - But way too difficult make. The only way to make one is to server hop relentlessly until you assemble all the parts. It makes no sense at all to have it this way as it's borderline unobtainable. Congrats to you for putting in what must have been serious time and effort. But its a ridiculous decision by the dev team to have it this way.
