More cars...less gear

[Slyguy65 499]

And more helicopters...one per server...come on 3 per server was just fine.

Since we have to fix cars anyway....i don't see why there are so many blown up cars instead of just broken ones..the amount of burnt out cars is just silly...compared to a simple broken or aged car that is still drivable if repaired.

Also less loot would be more appropriate. The issue in zombie apocalypses is that there is no gas...but there are plenty of cars that are broken down.

This...is...CHERNARUS!!

It is supposed to be a broken down country where farmers have old bomby cars that don't work, so on, and so forth.

How about 3 Heli's per server, less cars and less weapons.

Everytime I die I get fully geared within one or two hours on my nextlife. And by fully geared I mean all that Coyote, AS 50 and so on stuff, and I don't even have a camp.

More Cars = More Gear.

I said my part.

1 - 2 hours? This is impossible unless your farming loot spawns and server hopping

No I just go to typical sniper spots, or typical good loot spots, I also find tons of downed heli's. Mostly FNL crap but still.

Dude only people with extreme luck find heli crashes each time they play and even more so a coyote....seriously your situation is not common.

EVEN MORE REASON TO DWINDLE THE GEAR...

Uh did you miss all the military installations....ya it makes sense for the military cars to be rare but the civilian cars should be just fine. Not burnt out and destroyed...there should be more of them. The fact of the matter is one or two groups could have all the cars on the server since there are only maybe 5-8 per server (especially now, since the servers and the whole spawning and saving of tents/vehicles is broken)

@MacEwan

Takes 25-30 minutes to run directly in-land from spawn and reach stary, get a soda + beanz, backpack since alice packs are always around, loot tents, check around stary / novy for heli crash sites + deer stands, go to NW airfield and loot.

All this can be done under 2 hours, @ the end of this you are pretty well geared and if luck was on your side, you got a DMR or m24

I with my squad find at least one heli crash each day we play.

They are not rare at all - and we don't even specifically search for them.

[Erik (DayZ) 61]

I like the less gear loot idea.

[Zymi 64]

Less gear and cars more zombies.

I call BS. It takes practically two hours to get to NWA and even then AS50's are rare as hen's teeth unless you're the luckiest guy on Earth and finding tent camps/crashed helis each respawn. But I highly doubt it.

If anything the military installations would have working vehicles. Chernarus' civilians are basically stuck in a post-cold war era and the country is supposed to be poor. The exception being the corrupt government placing all it's funds into the military powers to ensure they retain power by controlling it's people. Basically it's a poor country controlled by the military wing government.

Ergo, civilian vehicles would not be in perfect working order, because civilians would be spending what little cash they have on food and maintaining their farms.

I suggest you play singleplayer Arma 2, it's quite obvious you have not.

More helicopters? 1 per server is too many. It should be like other vehicles where there is only a chance of it spawning. Getting heli's is way too easy now.

And no. There are enough vehicles.

Um, 1 heli is to many? So you're saying you don't want any?Sir, how is getting a helicopter easy? Honestly, how is that easy?

I was going from the Pobeda Dam to Vybor with our Off-Road Truck and found 4 Heli's on the way there. And it's always the same, everytime I'm on the countryside I find atleast 1 from my point to my targetet location. That's why I'd like to see less Alice Packs, less weapon's, less everything besides zombie's and heli's. If Rocket would turn up the difficulty of the game to extreme/unplayable hard it would be less TDM and more surviving. Not completely, just less than it is now.

...how long do you play each session...and how big is your squad.

Cars are too rare....they need to make more broken down car spawns and also revert the repair system back to when you actually needed a toolbox to repair shit...i don't know what all these people are smoking when they say they always find backpacks and DMRs....those nigs obviously don't play on server with more than 20 people...35+ you don't simply walk into starry and loot and find what you expect....you either die or its dry.

[serioussam909 15]

Our squad is 2-3 people and we usually play for 4-5 hours.

And we have a vehicle - so it's not hard to accidentally drive by a heli crash site.

So naturally we are armed to the teeth with the heli crash site gear and we don't even go to loot cities anymore (except industrial areas), because hatchets, beans, coke, makarovs and lee enfields are no longer interesting to us.

When we go to cities it is usually to use some noobs as a target practice (you don't carry as50 and L85A2 AWS around to shoot zombies).

Backpacks are very common - just go to supermarket and you will find one.

Or just murder someone in the middle of the map - he will probably have good gear.

you sir are a fucking faggot... going to a town to kill ungeard fresh spawn... please go and drown in a mixture of animale feces...

[RapturJesus 90]

The problem with loot is that people spawn in and dupe. /thread

I agree there needs to be transportation.

Specifically bikes. Ive seen two. Yet 5 helicopters and hundreds of cars. - Me. I dont know how many times Ive said that on this forum on threads like this.

hell, we (me and my group) usually play on servers with 10-20 people (usually less, becuase when we first play on the server there are many people and we set up a camp and the next day there aren't many players anymore...) and we still cant find DMR's, sniper rifles, or any of the better M4's...

4 Crashed Heli's Sir. I doubt I was hopping since I was driving the car.

[MoronToTheKore 57]

I could go for this. Sort of. I think maybe it would promote fuel being a valued commodity, a concept I really like.
