Brimstone99 18 Posted January 6, 2014 Thanks for the help before. The game is much better now. I am trying to find a gun, so far I have found 2 pistols and a revolver. I have many attachments and a ton of ammo but can not seem to find a better weapon. Any ideas? I tried Balota airfield that looked like it was not looted. Only found ammo, clothes, and those small pistols. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applejaxc 2500 Posted January 6, 2014 Balota is covered in M4s... obviously attracting bandits and douche server hoppers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ranadaine 35 Posted January 6, 2014 Hmmm... I don't want to make a separate topic about this, but it was pointed out multiple times here that mosin can spawn in cars. What kind of cars, actually? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brimstone99 18 Posted January 6, 2014 As for cars. I have seen many but have not been able to loot them. Also, what is up with server hoping? Is it really as simple as joining a new server to grab gear? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mySoup117 9 Posted January 6, 2014 To find guns, there are two ways: one is go to particular locations like military base (north of Kamenka, Southeast of Vybor), airfields/airstrips (NW, NE, Balota); the other way is more depending on luck, that is barns and civilian buildings where you may find Mosin and Magnum. I don't recommend server hopping, but it is totally legal and profitable. Server hopping is constantly (like every 5-10 minutes) switching servers at Balota/military buildings/high looting points so that you don't need to walk and find gears with the risk (and precious experience) of encountering other players. (Bandits, badasses; Heroes, shiny shiny guys; Normal fun players (like me), fun, blood and sweat.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brimstone99 18 Posted January 6, 2014 yeah i think all the server switching did it. so lame, tons of servers say they are 100% daytime but aren't Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feralfox 12 Posted January 6, 2014 Well, I guess this might seem bad, but I'm a noob and my only weapon is a shovel. I tend to server hop every time attract a zombie 0.0. The pro life. :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ynneead 20 Posted January 6, 2014 i found 3 m4s an 2 mosins inside the apartment complex between balota and cherno Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ranadaine 35 Posted January 6, 2014 And you can literally punch one to death without even a scratch just by circling it clockwise. Zed's aim for now is just laughable. offtop: Factories are pretty crazy, actually. Just got into one and found 5 25-packs, 1 hunting and 1 mountain backpack in a single building.

teufel937 49 Posted January 7, 2014 Ok.. so I started as a fresh spawn again today, I grabbed a shitty backpack threw some food and sodas in it, found a fire axe to slay zombies, then I found a water pump and drank until, "I felt really full."From there I journeyed from the far East Coast straight to NWAF, I skipped the actual airfield and hit Tent City, the medical tents at the Northern end of the strips, found me a canteen a few rounds then proceeded to Bashnya exactly North of the NWAF, I now have an M4, Combat Helmet, Hunters Pack, FXN45. It is truly not that hard to find gear in this game, that was about 1 hour or so of playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steely_D89 0 Posted January 7, 2014 On the seats of the blue cars. And I found amunition and weapons inside of police cars. Oddly enough I've only ever found sodas in the back of police cars... Only Mosin I ever saw was in an apartment building in one of the Northern cities. This occurred after I dropped 40 or so rounds for it, bipod and worn scope thinking I'd never find one and they were just taking up space haha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
