Make backpacks very rare

[liquidcactus 719]

How does it make sense?  Everyone owns at least one backpack in there house, more than likely 3+ or more if they have kids.

Well yes that may be true and I do agree but I think what we are trying to get across is the idea of less BIG bags and backpacks etc. The smaller back packs should have alot less slots in my opinion.

 

I'm fixated on the idea that smaller bags to hoard items will add more immersion to game play. Having to pick and choose items more carefully instead of hoarding lotsa shit.

 

 

I guess what I meant was that there shouldn't be so many hunting/hiking packs, because I don't know too many people with those. Then again I don't really care either way so they could put more in if they want. Doesn't matter to me.

Yes. Thats what I think aswell Karlkurtz.. And in the end it doesnt really matter.. just  fewer slots in the smaller back packs and rare bigger packs !

Yes ammo crates store I think 8 slots of ammo emptied out of there boxes, but ammo only. It takes up 4 slots. There's also the 1st aid kit and yellow protective case that hold 6 slots, but only take 4. On my current build I started off with the hunters back pack, then made my own back back out of a burlap sack, sticks and rope. It had 5 less slots then the hunters I think, but the 1st aid kit, yellow protective case and ammo box helped me to use every last bit of space. It also cuts down on my profile and helps blend in with the trees. I would love to see more stuff that we can make our selves in game. The only thing is, there WAS reports of game crashes caused by cases, and deaths. It was some sort of game bug, but I have not seen it happen in a long while.

 

Here's the thing, having those huge mountain back packs and using them in game makes you stick out like a sore thumb to a sniper. If you have a red one way more so. So I think yes maybe players who pick them up can carry allot more stuff, but you profile is much larger. I learned this over time......I will confess the hard way, both being on the receiving end of gun fire and dishing it out. Ya may as well paint a red shoot me sign on your self. I finding I like the much much prefer the hunters and improvised much better, even though there are less slots. So I think people with out even thinking are making them selves much more visible, using blue, red, purple or even bright green back packs. So its not like they are getting some sort advantage lol Just packing that bag full of stuff. Then getting shot before they ever have a chance to use it.

 

As far as zombies go, I would like to see them realisticly placed in the game. So say if it is one of the larger citys, there needs to be more much more zombies, but say smaller towns less. Also more of verity of them and maybe even make it so players can become infected and turn into one. That would be quite the trolling tool lololol

Yes, true those mountain packs etc do stand out alot with the colours etc. Just like a sniper magnet carrying lots of loot.. some bandit snipers probably see them and think " BONUS ROUND" But yes I also hope to see alot more improvised, crafting of useable items etc. The potential is pretty exciting for the crafting side of items but I'm sure we will be waiting a while before we see some of the best ideas blossom.

 

The zombs will be more abundant and more dense in urban areas for sure. I think I remember rocket saying they wanted 800 infected in cherno alone in a video blog a while back.. still sometime before we see that I'm sure. If that is the case in due time, entering an area like that will be impossible with anything less than an armed team which is pretty WILD
