Getting the spawn spawns.

Its so stupid though, you can't just tell me to head North. Its not that simple. I would like some gear first before I can go North. Im not going up there with my flashlight and my Green Jeans. I would have no self defence and probably die of starvation before I even hit NWAF.

Err no it's stupid you don't realise going north on the east coast takes you to Berezino. Not talking about NWAF lol

Pretty simple head east, up the coast until you hit neaf, by that time you will have absolutely everything you need as those towns are rarely looted and the biggest town in the game (forget the name) is on the way with 2 stores and the ship wreck which usually includes a mosin. People have this stupid idea that you have to go to balota or cherno to gear up.

The biggest town in the game is Chernogorsk. Berezino is probably 2nd biggest

Even if I went to berezino, where would I go after that? NEAF, I would love to loot the whole bunch of nothing they have there.

Yeah but the first person that sees you with an M4 will kill you and there is nothing you can do.  And if you just travel around for hours and see no one it is just plain boring... sooo what do you do?

 

I have recently been spawning there as well.  5 times in a row to be exact.  I kept letting this same zombie kill me.  Finally I landed in Elektro and was just like screw it just start from here.

 

The map REALLY needs some work... sick of only seeing Cherno and Balota if you want to see action and actually join in.

 

 

Be smart then and avoid people.

 

People need to stop wanting everything spoon fed to them you gotta go out and put some effort.

2 prisons, 1 ATC tower, and 2 hangers, I admit its not as good as NWAF or balota or any of the military spawns on the west side of the map but its much more then nothing.

Maybe make your way to the NEAF, NWAF or any number of places. The point that you're missing is that this is not the game you think it is and there is more to it than running and gunning. As I said in another post, people really should of done their homework before purchasing this game. If they're disappointed now then they're really not going to like what's to come.

 

Is it more than that though?  EVERY time I try to play with some imagination and interact with players or do something other than PVP I get shot in the back or smacked with a melee weapon by a guy I was helping when I am looking through my scope.

 

This is why people just KoS.  You spend 15 mins helping out a bambie only for him to kill you once he finally gets a weapon.  And I have been to the NW plenty of times.  Yeah its a hike, and you usually get sniped from some tree line or rock after a 45 min or more walk/run within 5 mins of getting up there which makes it seem not really worth it.

 

My point was that the game in its current form really is just a big deathmatch.  People are so on edge that they either KoS or "backstab" you for helping them.  I realize its alpha, but thats why these discussions are had.  So Rocket has things to consider going forward.

I go to elektro to gear up. I find a bambi camper, knock his fucking teeth in with my bare fists, and take all his gear. 

 

I like to mix laughing maniacally in there somewhere, and shouting "PUT YA DUKES UP SON", as well as "YOU GOT KNOCKED THE FUCK OUT"

 

One dude told me to "put my hands up" as I am chasing him with my fists. I pop him in the face, he drops, take his M4, all his clothes, and then execute him with his own gun. 

He should have been putting his hands up, because the fists are the best weapon in the goddamn game.

If they were smart they wouldn't even wait until they had a weapon. A good punch to the jaw is all it takes. Then just a few more swings at the head while you're getting back up and it's lights out for you.

I get that too, or when you call out to someone and they automaticly log on you. Today I was on hospital in Berezino and I handcuffed a guy. I said i wasnt going to kill him I said I was a bandit and I needed his food and drink. After I was done looting I got out my keys to uncuff him and he just logged. Whats the point of playing if you're just going to log every time someone interacts with you.
