AmazingAussie 38 Posted December 21, 2014 Hi, I've been to Vybor, Zelenogorsk, Pavlovo, NWAF and every single barrack on these servers has been licked clean of loot. I've been forced to server hop as well, high pop, medium and low pop etc and all the same, absolutely nothing but a few mountain backpacks.. Magazines and AK's need to be spawn in areas instead of just barracks, the military tents are a waste of time now, so are ATC's and prison buildings now. I've been to persistence off servers and still same results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scofflaw 73 Posted December 21, 2014 I imagine a lot of people are server hopping the barracks. I've given up on finding loot in military locations. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irish. 4886 Posted December 21, 2014 All you have to do is wait. Watch the door, from a bush. Make sure you have enough ammo.. You'll get your mags much faster that way, vs. server hopping. ;) 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmazingAussie 38 Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) I imagine a lot of people are server hopping the barracks. I've given up on finding loot in military locations. I remember before 0.49 AK's would spawn at almost everything military (as it's should because 5 million AK's have been produced IRL) and magazines would spawn at the military tents, but everything has been constricted to just barracks, why?! :( Edited December 21, 2014 by Quackdot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irish. 4886 Posted December 21, 2014 People.. you really dont need AK's and such. You really dont. I highly recommend you find a new focus in game, rather than the mil base loot cycle of repetitiveness. I find the pump shotgun, sporter, and derringer get me just as many kills if not more than any assault rifle in dayz. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

THIS You cannot find AKs, or other military loot, for that matter, because literally ALL the server hoppers have the exact same thoughts as you. "But.....but....what about PvP? How am I going to be competitive?" you say? TACTICS. Edited December 21, 2014 by Whyherro123 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For the longest time my only mission was to get military gear. I would never even get to use any of it, due to dying from someone else server hopping like me. What on earth did I think I needed 4 75rnd drums for... I never even got to empty half of one in a firefight. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pizuicas 82 Posted December 21, 2014 I think the loot is just fine....as Irish stated if you are so eager for some Akm´s and sort, ask the fellow survivors to give it to you, nicely off course :P . That is: behind a bush with lots of ammo. Having too much loot just takes half the fun of the game. Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TSVStriFe (DayZ) 13 Posted December 21, 2014 Some servers have some issue with loot it seems, one of the servers me and my friend visit regularly have entire towns without loot. So 0.52 which should fix the super loot bug, might've broken the loottables a slight bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gannon46 788 Posted December 21, 2014 i too gave up doing the long run to mil areas theres never anything there but maybe a soda. havn't been to one in a long time i found i love the repeater and the pump shotgun and i actually have more fun because if i croak oh well i can find my gear again usually quite quickly since its in most residential areas. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So 0.52 which should fix the super loot bug, might've broken the loottables a slight bit. This IME. Post 0.52 (and definitely in those insane hours just after the servers came back up), a lot of servers seemed to be entirely loot-free - not just at barracks but everywhere.

Crackiiz 0 Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) Way to exaggerate, mate.No No i did that. I jumped between 4 servers when I ran all the way. whenever i found a town and didn´t find anything I went to another server and didn´t find anything on those servers And persistence was enabled Edited December 21, 2014 by Crackiiz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
