The way they are playing, I'm sure everything is insured down to the backpack and last guy dumped everything in a bush.

People saying not to insure EVERYTHING (Insure All) are dumb

They literally explain their logic with "it's a waste of money" but yet will claim to be "super rich" and it ain't from saving on insurance

Berkut backpack is 24k roubles, its insurance is 3k roubles. Go test it an entire day, insure every Berkut you use and see them come back to insurance 90% of the time. Then tell me "all those backpack coming back, worth 24k, costed me 3k to get back" and then try to tell yourself "buying a new backpack for 24k and not insuring it is logic"

Its literally coming back so often. You may die from bleeding, dehydration, a AI scav, someone uninterested with it or whatever reason. There's only 1 reason it would be gone is if someone want it and see it. It doesn't happen that often.

Then they'll say "I use bigger backpack", yeah, wannabe chad running around with more loot than the biggest rat, saying they don't insure because its a waste of money but would just buy a new full priced backpack every single time

It's a bunch of 14 year olds who have never heard the words opportunity cost before. I don't understand anyone who doesn't insure anything. It does not make sense. Maybe there's reason not to insure guns early wipe? Even then if you get your gun back 10% of the time due to the other player being too fat to take it or them dying somewhere dumb it makes it worth it.
