Do they work or not?

and tips/tricks to make them work?

[General Dickbutt 41]

I stopped using tents long ago, its so easy to get gear anyways, and tents always fail

Sometimes they save, sometimes they don't. Does this answer your question? You'll loose stuff with them.

I think there may be something up with the tents since the patch. I ran into 7 camps yesterday and every single tent was empty. May just be a coincidence.

That being said. Some tricks for tents:

1. Find your location

2. Switch to 1st person mode (I've seen a higher success rate)

3. Look at the ground

4. Hit place tent (more than likely you will see the message about being on flat ground, blah blah)

5. move a bit while still in the gear menu and hit place tent again.

6. Repeat step 5 until your tent is setup

7. Once you put your items are in the tent. Hit the "save old tent" option 5+ times to ensure it has saved.

8. Prepare yourself for your tent to be looted, smashed, disappear, be empty, magically duplicate itself, etc, etc.

I always carry my best gear on my character.

Yeah i know that tents arent to be trusted in general but i was wondering if this new patch has rendered them totally useless?
