Ammo Box rarer then unicorns?(the storage box)

[Happy- 41]

So i havent played for while and now that im back checking out whats changed and whatnot. I was running around with a bud and placed my ammo box on the ground on wich it bugged out and dissapeared along with all my ammo  >:(  oh well i figured i could get a new one,(this is before i noticed you could right containers and view content now) uhm yea thats was wishfull thinking.

 

i must have checked a dozen military camps at least times and police stations and just for good measure police cars...and nothing havent seen a singel ammo box, just to be clear i am talking about the  so whats happened? has it been removed or just become extremly rare?

I find them on occasion but I find them fairly pointless. You have to be delusional if you think you will live long enough to use up all the ammo one of them can carry.

 

Well let me revise, you can live that long by avoiding all other players, in which case you will not use up the ammo. On the other hand if you go into the big PVP zones bad luck will eventually get you before you go through any really large amount of ammo.

Well some of us like using ammo on zombies too, ammo box is always handy. Especially when barracks are drowning in AK101 ammo. Easy to fill, easy to waste.

I heard someone say they only spawn at the heli-crash sites now. I haven't found any since the last update either.

[asgar 23]

can confirm this. not a single one since .48

WHATS WITH YOU AND LABELING INANIMATE OBJECTS AS UNICORNS?! xD

[Dagwood 680]

I found one at a heli crash yesterday. This may be the only place they spawn now. Quit server hopping and get helo hunting!

[trev186 389]

heli site only now.

 

Glad I have 2 :)

Found two at crash sites this morning. Both pristine

Ok so crashed choppers seems to be the place they spawn now. Cheers for the response!

not all of us plays the game like its COD or CS (not saying you are either).now i dont avoid all contact with players but am i careful? yes i am, kinda the point in my eyes in a Zombie survival game, now i like them for the space saver. and i usaly tend to stay alive long enough for them to be quite handy. and its not about using up all the ammo its about how convenient it is.

I don't see the convenience. But then if I can get the M4, AKM, or AK101 then I do not bother with a sidearm. Once I have two or more magazines then that plus two full stacks of loose ammo is more than enough for me.

 

Now if they changed it so ammo cases could hold magazines it would be a different story. As it is I would rather have a couple yellow cases that I can throw a magazine as well as loose ammo in.

Haven't found the ammo box nor the new bandana a.k.a face mask since 0.48, but as Chris Torchia said, they messed up the loot tables a little and we will see this fixed in next experimental

[Officer25 54]

I have found the new bandana in 0.48, but not an ammo can. Oh how much I want an ammo can.

[Super_Duty 466]

I also found a bandana in 0.48, only one though and no ammo box, also no damn can openers!!! Where did all the can openers go!

Speak for yourself. I skirt hot spots and snipe people overextending themselves constantly. I have gone through a 300 Round Box of 7.62x39mm in the last two days alone. No experienced player runs into/through Berezino.

Man, where do these kids come from?

[humdizzle 5]

you dont need to use ammo for shooting per se.  I've traded ammo for rare items/clothing etc before. people will pay up for .45 and 5.56 ammo.

 

Plus some of us carry multiple weapons. I had a mosin in my hands, ak101 on back, fnx45 and sawed off shotty in the backpack :)
