vehicles and looting

[ow1 30]

Am I right in saying that if you have any kind of vehicle, even a old bike, that when u go to a building there is never any loot because you approached it too fast?

This is the case for me anyway.

If so how can you have a vehicle and gear up at the same time?

You need to park the vehicle atleast 50 meters from the building you want to loot, go out of the vehicle to spawn zombies. 1: hide your car there and run to loot the place or 2: get back in your vehicle drive 50m and loot the building.

And here is me thinking vehicles are for convenience, Hope this is fixed soon because I just can't be bothered with vehicles while there like this.

The way we loot is like, drop one off 50meters from a building, he runs to the building while the driver drives to it and pick up the passenger when hes done looting.

I generally don't bother taking vehicles to loot anyway, only to pick up friends or to set up an ambush or something. But thats because I only really loot military places now, and well if you take a car into the NWAF you're bound to get shot at.
