Change spawn location away from coast

[SpeechMan 7]

If you look at the Chernarus+ map, you can see a pattern where all the worthwhile loot areas are. Basically it forms a circle, with bunch of nothing in the middle.

 

My suggestion is to change the new character spawn areas away from the coast and into the middle of the map. Multiple things would be gained:

 

- By starting the game away from big loot centers (Cherno, Elektro) it would make gathering equipment last a bit longer.

 

- Finding out your exact location after spawning would be lot harder without the coastline visible.

 

- Spawn killing would be harder since spawns could be moved to forests instead of wide open coast.

 

- Overall population spread would move away from big coastal cities and more evenly around the map.

I like coastal spawns. I really liked starting in Kamenka.

 

The new spawns are great. You should never see a fresh spawn within 8km of any military base. Too many people run for guns first.

i don't. i've learned that i will just get more likely killed there. i just try to find a mosin from a safer location.
