GodlessBnitch 2 Posted December 19, 2013 It seems like all the stores are emtpy, and there is generally a small amount of items to loot.Barracks at balota has low value loot, like shoes and maybe a magazine.Is this going to change after a few patches or is this the new standard?You also need more tools and stuff in the standalone, like sharp tools and can opener to eat canned food.When they implement more needs, they should also turn up the amount of loot.I have heard there is alot of weps and stuff at NWAF. But It's near impossible to find one, and have they removed the "waypoint" option?Like when you "Hold shift + left click". Hope they fix this soon. Thank you in advance .

terrvik 2409 Posted December 19, 2013 Loot will be tweaked and balanced for a long time and without it respawning it's hard to say if it's too much or to little. Waypoints are gone forever though! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GodlessBnitch 2 Posted December 19, 2013 There is plenty of loot. Too much infact. Plenty? I have played this game since it got released, I don't see plenty of loot.Maybe you're playing the mod still. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zarniwoop 1193 Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) If you look everywhere but the places you frequented in the mod you will find plenty. Move your arse and explore for pete's sake.. :P Edited December 19, 2013 by Zarniwoop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GodlessBnitch 2 Posted December 19, 2013 I loot every building I come across.. Could high ping maybe interact with the loot spawning? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Statik (DayZ) 2695 Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) Just know where to look. It's everywhere.No ping won't effect it. Edited December 19, 2013 by Statik Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zarniwoop 1193 Posted December 19, 2013 I loot every building I come across.. Could high ping maybe interact with the loot spawning? I refer to towns not buildings. I have been quite awesomely geared from towns like Kozlovka or Shakhovka. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gaint 80 Posted December 19, 2013 Goddamned ! There's sooooo much loot in the game.Just get your ass away from the coast and move ahead to other locations ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erocean 21 Posted December 19, 2013 Loot spawns seem fine to me, you just need to go North and get away from the coast where everyone seems to frequent. Soon as we headed north we were geared very quickly.... I hope waypoints stay gone Food/Water burn does seem to go a bit quick though, I am sure that will change in time.

GodlessBnitch 2 Posted December 19, 2013 I came to Novy Sobor, and then i died of starvation.. so, yeah! I hope they change that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FAAmecanic 5 Posted December 19, 2013 Yep get off the coast and away from cities normally frequented in the old mod... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BratExecutioner 27 Posted December 19, 2013 People telling to get off the coast are funny.I've been "Scavenging" for 2 hours at the NORTH. I died cuz of starvation.TONS of houses are empty. The only thing i looted was a screwdriver and a fucking paper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only thing i looted was a screwdriver and a fucking paper. Heh, tell me about it. Ran around and found pretty much everything I could want, rope, axe, backpack, weapon addons... however, no food what so ever. Starved to death.In on my third character now and guess what? No food at all. My first character had plenty of food though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capo 323 Posted December 19, 2013 loot spawns at server restart, look for houses away from the main road, and yes get off the coast. i found a mosin in a house last night when all the houses along the road had been thoroughly looted. don't go for such obvious towns and cities if you're in desperate need, go somewhere that people wouldn't have gone. This is not really something that needs fixing, i enjoy it tbh, a slight respawn for gear over time would be nice, but in general it feels great knowing people have been here before me. Also just stay away from balota, obviously it's the first thing that's going to be emptied and then it will be camped by well geared players with nothing else to do.

Whistler2k4 8 Posted December 20, 2013 I must say that the weapons spawns way to often. You can run by 5-6 M4's in less than 3 hours. Food spawns is good as is. At least until you can hunt animals. Ammunition is not hard to come by at all. I got more than 300 rounds to my M4, and I've split some with my buddies. So, supplies are plenty. If you know where to look.

Tara505 18 Posted December 20, 2013 (edited) Food/Water burn does seem to go a bit quick though, I am sure that will change in time.Most likely because you jog or sprint all the time. Edited December 20, 2013 by Tara505 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skyelur 57 Posted December 20, 2013 There is plenty of loot. Too much infact. Plenty? I have played this game since it got released, I don't see plenty of loot.Maybe you're playing the mod still.The loot never respawns in servers, so if you show up late to the party, loots gone. Try looking at unpopulated areas that no one likes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Th3mandalorian (DayZ) 7 Posted December 20, 2013 Yep. I cange server when i see that all the houses on my way north have wide open doors (means - theres nothing inside, someone already looted). I change server and i try to pick stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryan-welly@hotmail.com 3 Posted December 20, 2013 your probably running around popular areas therefore all the loot has been taken try going to some of the towns up north such as vybor or polana as they both have stores. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
