free supplies...or I need a tent

[tripl_b 9]

I've got a few extra maps, cans of food, soda, etc I'd be willing to give to someone getting started. I'm also looking for a tent now that I have decent gear. I'll trade for it.

Go to your nearest supermarket and you should find one, if it hasn't spawned just cycle the loot and one will appear.

I've been to the Zelengorsk market twice and no dice. What do you mean by cycle the loot?

Drop your gear out back of store - Be safe about it - Go in and grab everything and dump out back away from your gear, make sure the building is empty and now grab your gear back and head 100m away and wait 10 mins, head back and you should have a tent or 2, if not repeat - Kinda cheating but works great for Baracks and Stary Tents :)

Wabid Wabit explained it well enough, basically when you go into somewhere and all you see is trash loot its because people have left it as they didn't want it or couldn't use it, if you remove it all from the building (even better hide on dead bodies) then new loot will spawn.

I use it in places like NWA by having three of us moving between the two barracks and emptying all loot out till we get good loot when we need to gear up, I don't see it as cheating and it beats duping any day as we are using a legit mechanism.

So basically I dump everything on my person and in my pack somewhere and grab everything in the store and put it outside. Then I go back in after a few minutes and new swag? That's awesome and I've never heard of it before. Thanks!

Well, it is a bit risky to dump your gear as it can disappear into the ground sometimes, someone might take it or the server could restart.

My friend has a Tent.. Right now we are located at the Airfield.. But my friend is a bit more trigger happy since he has been killed twice now by other players.

Two quads spawn on Klen near Berezino and one at Black Lake if that's any help.

Don't dump your gear. Just make room enough to pick up the trash and take it outside.

You need room in your backpack to pick up excess bandages and pistol ammo.

Dump it all on the ground in a safe place away from any other loot piles.

Then leave the building and move at least 30 meters away (loot won't spawn if you're closer) then wait 10 minutes max (loot respawn timer is 10 minutes) and return to more loot.

It's best of you cycle through several buildings in a loop. Clean out one, move to the next. By the time you return to the first, it's been 10 minutes and there's new loot.

Pick up your gear before you leave for 10 mins - Make sure you are at least 100m away

Thanks

Guess you have never done this before? One person would take forever clearing it out with a almost full pack - I have never lost anything and I have put very items downs - I also will place my items inside the store will I cycled it - Just my opinion only

Me too this am after finally finding 2 tents in Zen Grocery - Behind NW at the 4 way in a fenced little area - I thought someone had a flat and left it - But realized it was a bad location for them to drive and the fence was still up - I have saved it so I hope it is still there :)
