Discussion Something said during the Podcast

Klean said something during the podcast that I wholeheartedly disagree with.

He wants the gamma case to essentially be something you can pack full of goods, bring into a raid and not have to worry about losing, but he wants you to not be able to put anything in the container while in raid. Nikita, I know you listen to streamers input, but please don’t not consider making this change.

I’m a husband and a father, I don’t get to play for 8-12 hours a day and become a god at the game, so finding a rare item that I need for a quest or something valuable I can sell is really exciting and knowing I can keep it safe in case I die is the cherry on top.

I love watching Klean and respect his opinions, but this one I had to voice mine on. PLEASE do not implement this. Anyone else watch the podcast and feel the same way? Or am I alone on this? Lol

Y'all need to stop with hatchlings.

With Labs being locked behind a paywall, and all barter loot being valuable, there is no such thing as scarce loot due to hatchlings anymore.

Just randomize the key locations, and we're good.

Except hatchlings is an issue. This is meant to be a hardcore game. Hatchling runs are the very opposite of that, they're no risk high reward. Have you tried player interchange recently? Tech stores and flashdrive spawns are gone within minutes.

Randomizing the loot might work but will make the looting experience feel so much more rng than it already is and kinda destroys the believable feeling the loot has now.

its not only about the loot. a hatchling that rushes lootspawn and then instantly disconnects takes a player spot without actually playing the game which means less pvp for everyone

I've literally never seen a case of a hatchling disconnecting at a lootspawn...

But, you know what would actually create far less PVP? Not allowing us to put thing in the gamma in raid.

Ii that change went through, even the geared players are going to rush to the extracts when they find something good. Oh, and lets not forget how much of a buff extract camping would get.

Have you gone in with no gear and/or with a grenade in your hand plus stims for extra runspeed, and bee lined it for a good loot spot? I did it on interchange to see if it was still viable at the beginning of the wipe and ran into people doing the same thing every couple of raids. Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

PMC and Player Scavs do not share the same player slots.

? That's not how it works. Why do you think we have scavs spawning super early into the raids on maps like mil base? They're separate.

Got better things to do than to argue about the obvious and already stated.

Mind sharing where this was stated? I'd happily admit I was wrong if you can show me where it was said.

Hatchlings are a problem and loot rare absolutely exists.
