Why does hardly anyone go north??

As soon as I spawn I head north and stay low

I'm at the point where I consider anywhere south of Zelenogorsk or Dolina to be instant death. Krasnostav to Zelen is where it's at, though the flat lands around the Sobors is instant death in my book.

I love the south eastern area around the three valleys and Dolina. The huge wooded valleys and little hamlets make a really good bandit range.

As to an answer to the question - they're new players. It feels like 95% of people sign up, log in, go to Chern or Elektro because they believe (based on other games) that you have to go to cities and spend all your time in cities, and then they die 5-10 times and then come on the forums demanding NVGs be removed and a free airline toiletries back for anyone attacked by a bandit. The most brain dead suggestion recently was that if you kill any other player you are marked for an hour on the map so everyone can see where you are.

Re-tard-ed.

Through rigorous research and observation over the years it is well known that when walking without a compass a human will always veer to the left due to the left leg being statistically shorter most of the time.

When the size of the map is taken into consideration most humans will venture inland and gently circle around to the left which puts most people in the southern region.

Seriously' date=' it's a long walk. Especially if you don't have a map or compass

Dont need no stinking compass. Just use the stars & sun to guide you :D
