franjozubcic 18 Posted February 5, 2014 Its just frustrating! I walked from coast (rough 30 mins ) to get to Electro just to find all building have opened doors and there is no loot in WHOLE CITY, NO FOOD , NO WATER only damaged clothes and rotten f*ing bananas! went further ahead towards Cherno ... same thing! Character is starving... im so pissed I go to change a server becouse i will die this way becouse there is no food on whole server i guess! Than i get 200 seconds 2 login ( server hoop protectio which i support by the way ) ! SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THAT !!!Guess like 20 minute loot respawn trigger or smtng! :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Niner 27 Posted February 5, 2014 I know exactly how you feel, spend twenty to thirty minutes running from town to town, checking each one and nothing comes up. It's just fucking annoying, and at times makes me stop playing the game completely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deepfried 95 Posted February 5, 2014 When there are a proper number of zombies, the looting will be much harder, and so places won't be looted out so much. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Max Planck 7174 Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) Why don't you guys spend all that time walking to some of the smaller inland towns, where the food is? The map is more than Cherno and Elektro, and nothing needs to be done here. Edited February 5, 2014 by Max Planck 15 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The map is more than Cherno and Elektro, and nothing needs to be done here. What he said. Seriously, what the fuck do you expect? Really? You want a fully stocked grocery and a Bass Pro Shops with all the gear you need, across the street from each other? Harden the Fuck Up. Go north, hit the small towns to gear up, THEN go back to the coast so you can get roflstomped all over again and begin your Trek of Rage all over again. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tizzle 90 Posted February 5, 2014 You can get way more loot hopping from village to village inland than you can in electro/cherno. And as an added bonus, you're way less likely to get murdered by a pants-less axe wielding psycho 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deepfried 95 Posted February 5, 2014 personally i've never had a major problem with finding loot. Sure you get scenarios where whole towns and cities are completely looted... hell give me 1/2/ hour and i'll do it myself. But the point is there are other villages and towns to walk to, at least some of them wont have been looted, and by the time you've walked round them all the server will have restarted and reset the loot anyway. Just consider it an opportunity to roleplay a survival situation where the bigger towns have already been looted... I know Dayz is a deathmatch game, but you know, there is some survival gameplay in there too if you look for it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scaramoosh 162 Posted February 5, 2014 I walk inland and find there is no loot, no zombies, no nothing... The other thing is there are no people inland and walking is tedious, we need vehicles ASAP! SA is very broken, this whole server structure was meant to fix problems, it has just created more and made the game worse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InvisiMan2013 229 Posted February 5, 2014 I think part of the problem is that many of the smaller towns feature buildings that don't spawn anything (I'm looking at you log cabin). I've ran (30 minutes) from the east coast to Stary Sobor only to find it was looted and guess what? Dead from starvation... had I spent time in these smaller towns (with zero loot buildings), I'd just be wasting time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gerbilschooler 229 Posted February 5, 2014 There was a bug, fixed now, I believe where the hunger was just ramped up to ridiculous proportions... maybe part of your problems (this and not going inland) was this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djporternz 644 Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) Yes, something does need to be done about it. Unfortunately it will require you to at least read the Pinned New Player Guide: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/154039-beginners-guide/. While you're there you might want to read the excellent health and food guides by Marino: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/159251-merinos-in-depth-video-guides-updated-jan-22nd-all-medical-items-to-keep-or-not-to-keep/. You will then have to apply what you learn there in-game. TL;DR: Learn to play the game! Edited February 5, 2014 by DJPorterNZ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skoms 86 Posted February 5, 2014 SA is very broken, this whole server structure was meant to fix problems, it has just created more and made the game worse. How can a early access pre alpha game be broken? Do you think this whole server structure will be better or worse when the game is finish in 1-2 years?? ITS AN ALPHA!!!! Its so strange that people who is intelligent enough to learn to write is so dumb that they do not understand the concept of an alpha release of a game. At least wait till beta stage before you call the game "very broken"... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Meeshe 170 Posted February 5, 2014 For myself, I've never had a problem finding food and water, but, I almost always head inland and look for small villages and towns. I can count the number of times I've entered Cherno or Electro in SA on one hand. My problem is that I am totally jinxed on weapons in SA. I found a Moisin on the first day of SA but no ammo. I havent seen one since. Its not a big deal as Im a huge fan of the hatchet, but it would be nice to have a weapon for the times I cant avoid the annoying KOS kiddies. My advice, head inland, look for villages and small towns. Keep your eyes open :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
