Standalone is an empty wasteland

People who aren't finding loot aren't looking where loot now spawns.

its not that dude, its the mechanic.

 

loot spawns 1 time and 1 time only on server restart...not like the mod where it respawns.

 

meaning anything of value, hospitals, barns, large civilian, military are all gone within an hour.

 

so to find loot people server hop or look for new or 0 player servers and then loot up, hope back to a populated one

Enjoy the sights and sounds of the beautiful world. Take it all in and be grateful we have a game in this day and age such as this. Problem solved.

I bought the game, logged into the most populated server at 39/40 that had been up for hours, and found loot in the first 3 houses I went into.

Switching from server to server all the time, camping market at Stary and barack at NWAF,

 

Oh dear oh dear.

Yeah ghosting is super bad right now. I spent all night on the same server....I moved up the west side of Chernarus hitting all the military spawns all the way up to NWAF and every single building had been looted of everything that could be potentially useful...but there wasn't anyone to be seen for miles.

sure thats great, but the reality is and i quote "in the current state loot only spawns on server restart"

 

cool concept, similar to real life. but at this time it is frustrating for the vast majority.

Im fine with the way it is, just offering suggestions to make this a bit more fun.

in the UK the servers are all stuck at 40/40 its pretty hard to join a server let alone find anything

Needs more servers in the Uk still. Cannot play the game because there isn't any room.

[deebz1234 243]

why not play a different server location?

 

i find pretty good ping on anything north america, and even the UK ones arent horrible.

im in canada.
