Np. Baby Jesus, good dude!

I used a tent after .50 and it dissapeared after 1-1/2 days. At this point tents might not be the best way to do things at the moment given that items are not degrading at all. So for now I'm just throwing everything on the ground somewhere and calling that a base I've had my vests dissapear from the ground and inside backpacks since .50, but no backpacks are dissapearing.

3rd person: Have: 180 ish 5.56 rounds AK74 mag (BD) 2 x AK-74 P 1x AK101 with Rail guard, folding buttstock, PSo-1 scope all P 3x AK101 mags P 1x .22 pistol mag (for amphibia) P 2x olive high cap vests P Want: 2 x mosin clips P 5.45 ammo about 120 P 2 x Black High cap vests P only

It was badly damaged too. Highway robbery if you ask me but smooth trade. Def owe him more! Also trraded again with smiley, earlier today. Again a smooth trade. Need to start farming heli crashes for both of these guys to pay em back.

Have: 2 x Ak-74 1 x Mp5 1x kitted ak101 and 3 mags. Trading this for a kitted mosin /w 2 clips. (lrs, comp, and bayonet pref but not neccesary) Want: 5.45 ammo x 100 1 x Ak74 mag 7.62 ammo x 60

Traded with FR.popeye. Went smoot. Great dude.

It's really annoying when you are trying to use the scroll menu and oyu get 1-2 lines of "reaload xxx mag". There is a button ou can bind it to in game, so If we wanted to reload we could press it. Some people are losing full mags to this and it's really unnecessary IMO.

Tent went poof so here's my new list: Have: Rangefinder /w battery P Ak74 P Ak rail guard P Blacksull Balaclava Want AKs-74u mags x 3 5.45 ammo High cap vests 1 olive 3 black 2x canteen

Still looking for trades. Have a couple in the pipe but still open to setting up others.

Do you guys have an aks-74u with 3 mags and some rounds and possibly need a kitted AK101 instead? :) If this proposed trade with Fr Popeye doesn't happen then I'll still be in the market.

I use the word "iteration" because there will be more versions of this released; however, they have given us a true "survival" feeling in this version. The only problem is they did it with bugs. I am terrified of dying, I have to find water constantly, and carry food now. Which is how I would expect to feel given the story of Chernarus. In doing so though some of the attention to detail still needs work. Its obvious loot is bugged, as well as water supply. Once these are fixed I will probably feel less afraid to die, but it will still be a more realistic survival GAME. Given that though, how many of you have died yet? How has the next life progressed in the current stable iteration? I typically get restless after being geared and tend to go find people to kill; however, I'm really really hesitant atm. Disclaimer: I'm not saying SA is realistic. I'm not passing judgement on the devs progress. I'm not really looking to argue any real life implications you feel like trying to draw out of this conversation. I'm only saying that they have put out something that makes you feel like you are "surviving", even if it is buggy and only a game.

Hopefully a mod makes a pistol grip pump that fits in your jacket. BOOOOOM Yeah you can't predict what buildings people are going to loot. But what the patch has shown us is that if the place is looted, it currently gets looted for good. The server compensates by spawning more loot, elsewhere that hasn't been player manipulated yet. So whoever those hoppers in the barracks are, they are definitely not looking for any jail loot.

Yeah. Less players playing 1st person. I'm going to play my hardcore life for now since my 3rd person one is pretty set and see what the situation looks like.

I have yet to come across a bugged loot place to see what kind of useless swag I can find :(

.49 wiped characters. They will announce when characters will be wiped before they do it. No way to really avoid that. Sorry man. If you find a sign, cross reference the russian characters to dayzdb.com map.

Ok new update: Have:Magnum speed loader x1 PCan opener PPink Balaclava PBlackskull Balaclava PPress Vest x 2 PACoG WMosin Compensator WProtector Case P Want High cap vests 1 olive 4 black P onlyCanteen x 2 PRIORITY 1 TRADE!!!!! I want to trade MY AK101, 3 mags, and about 150 rounds of 5.56 for an AKS-74u, at least 2 mags, prefer 3, and some 5.45 as well. If you toss in a Mosin in the trade, you get my PSo-1 scope as well. THIS IS AN OPEN OFFER AND AM ONLY WILLING TO MAKE THE COMPLETE TRADE. Holla at a playa when you see him in the street.

I made an assumption in another thread that currently it seems like any spawn point that had loot taken from it by a player is no longer spawning loot. To compensate for this the server just spawns more loot in spots that haven't been player manipulated which is the useless stuff like purple pants. But you should pick that up, throw on the blue/purple running shoes with pink laces and a purple bandanna and BOOM. You are ballin.

If complaining means expressing my condescending opinion about you, and proposing a valid question to the community all at the same time then yes, I will thoroughly enjoy that.

No. I thought my implication was obvious enough for the small minded RP private shard in a bug filled alpha game player to understand but i'll be more explicit. If you didn't have your base, how then would your next life be? Coastal cities will all be looted. If you are lucky enough to find a bugged town where it hasn't been looted yet and you take all of that gear, you have just made sure no more loot will spawn in that area. So if you die again you have to find the next bugged town yes? If they don't fix the loot issue, how will a fresh life for you be 3 weeks from now, when everywhere has been picked clean as is no longer spawning loot?

Dude the purple swag I gave you...much more baller than a standard camo. Just saying. Try this. Purple tieable hat, purple tieable mask, grey tactical shirt, grey cargo, those FIRE ASS blue/lightblue running shoes with purple laces. M B P, most ballinous playa.

Well yes it's easy if that's the case. But as this loot spawning thing continues to eat up loot spawns around the map gear will be less available. Lets say I find eden. I destroy it. Move the items pack the tents and leave you with nothing. I guess that was the spirit of the question I was asking.

It's a bug to which I don't know the specifics but I've made some assumptions. Player manipulated loot (picked up and dropped somewhere other than it's original spawn point) should degrade over time, and thus will re-appear somewhere else on the server. From last experimental to now, items aren't degrading so what you get is places that are looted, stay looted and don't respawn loot. What my theory is that the server thinks it needs to spawn loot still and because the original manipulated items aren't degrading the server just spawns loot in the buildings that haven't been looted which will already have loot in it. Thus you see places with tons of loot. Maybe the checking process is out of whack because degradation is out of whack as well? Maybe the server must respawn loot at a restart so it places it where nothing has been manipulated? Basically this shows you loot needs to be re-worked as a whole.

They haven't worked out the kinks with dead bodies and items on them. However, in .5, all servers are persistent unless turned off so what you can extrapolate from this is that if you die in Novo, your team should do a quick sweep, then put everything you have on the ground and hold down the location. Now that your items are on the ground they won't dissapear. And you can choose either to play the random spawn game that you like to so much and try to get close or just spawn and run since your items are persistent now that they are off of your body. They also haven't worked out item degradation in this stable iteration yet, so you have no fear of it ever despawning until they fix that. It's been explained to you several times already, the spawning locations are random. What you want them to do is alter the algorithm to allow a higher chance at a Novo spawn. How is that fair to someone who is the same exact person as you, but prefers Cherno instead? Also, I thought you were going to stop?

Updated, still looking for trades!!

Probably not, you are just having bad luck? If it's still 3 per restart then there isn't really a way to change it unless the spawn points are different now. Persistence being on apparently affect loot re spawn everywhere else now though so "farming" is much much harder given scarcer loot and the hunger/thirst/shoe additions. Not sure how this will look 3 weeks from now if a lot of people die and there is nothing to loot around the map.
