No loot in cars since update?

[ScorpionDaan 1]

I've been looting every car i could find, but none contain loot. This is since the new update. How am I going to find my maps now?

[VincentNZ 5]

I always looked at the map for potential looting spots, and it always said that within every car is the potential of really good loot, yet I never found anything on them, same with helicopter wrecks and broken down IFVs.

found a mosin in a car at novy, not more than an hour ago, in the dark.

alright, thanks for the info!

Cars usually have maps

 

remember to check both the seats and the trunk

 

police cars almost always have loot in them. If they dont then usually it means its already looted

I havent seen a thing in cars since the update, same with the tent camps near Balota and NWAF. Havent really noticed any other loot spawns missing.

I have found loot in cars since update (mostly soda). But every IFV and helicopter I've seen has had nothing yet.

Uhm.. You guys who ARE finding loot in cars.. are you playing on Hardcore servers?

[FishGuts4Lunch 66]

Same here, no more loot in cars since the update. I have checked about20 cares in the last two days... nada. :(

[ScorpionDaan 1]

this.

 

has there ever been anything on them? does someone have factoids on this?

 

but yeah, i know you could find some stuff in those random small cars. or, in this case, used to find.

Cars are out for maps. houseblock_b1 c2 c3 works fine for maps.

Still nothing on heli wrecks, and prepatch ive found maps, food, soda cans, clothes, mosins, and some other random gear in cars.

ok thanks. i was just wondering, since some third-party maps tag them as weapon spawns (heli and truck wrecks)... i wonder where they got that idea in the first place.

i was playing on a hardcore server, would that make it different?

Since the update (for my experience):

 

no more loot in cars

no more loot in military tents

no more loot in some model of sheds

 

still no loot in the deer stands

now we have loot in the 2 story barn

 

for mosin: shipwreck and schools

for long range scope: barracks and control tower

for nearly everything else: these garages that usually are 3 or more side by side (there are a LOT of them in Chapaevsk, north east of balota)

I have also noticed absolutely NO loot in any military tents, cars, trucks, cream sheds(used to have maps) in both hardcore and regular servers since the update

[razguul@gmail.com 80]

I have found 0 loot in cars since new patch, even on servers that just restarted and nothing is looted.

[Kaboom! 0]

Same here. I used to find plenty of loot in cars, especially police cars. Since the latest patch, I haven't found a single item in any of the cars.

[rickenbacker 190]

They either turned the spawn rate way, way down in some spots, or they broke something with the update. The white barns now have loot, but the cars don't, and some houses that DID have loot before the patch, now has none or very much less than before.
