Scavs can spawn with the armor and the helmet aswell. So looting them.

"Can" is very vague to be honest and i've personally never seen a Scav with a helmet so I imagine it's pretty rare. As I said I have found PACA armor on a scav I killed but the problem is that to be able to do something and make some progression you shouldn't have to depend on finding some rare armor.

Do you see the difference between me setting aside let's say 50k roubles for a run and setting aside something I need a lot of luck and time to find? Money I can slowly grind but without trader access it's barely useful as the items being sold is very limited.

You can also just trade with other players for the stuff, easiest solution. Plenty of people selling all the quest items, including forts and kivers.
Heck, I'll give you a free kiver if you want.

EDIT: And bring me 7 gold chains and I'll give you a fort too.

what's the objective? kill everyone on your way out of the map?
how do you form a group?
who wants to play together?
how does the secure container work?
do you loose the container when you die?
how does insurance work?
I just run to the border then follow it until I get to an extraction point..

It's funny to me that he thinks/feels like the high tier shit is where the fun starts Very Happy (Just because it's the complete opposite for me...)

Anyway... all the quest items can be farmed. And the "grind" isn't even nearly... like holyhell... nearly as bad as shit like World of Tanks and such where it's absolutely accurate that the game's progression is build around you having to invest at a certain point (and still some people manage due to being inventive).
Anyone who even calls this a grind must be new to gaming anyway... like 2015+ new... or can't cope with the fact that not much freetime is left like in the younger days... which is hardly the game's fault. Rolling Eyes

For a better chance to get Fort+Kiver on Savs and Salewas (from Medbags)... do Shoreline. Wood's Scavs also have a better chance for Fort (even Factory does) than Customs.

Also, nothing stops you from trading with other people and or to play Fence.

I think the main problem is just the current lack of knowledge about the game for many people. But the info is all out there if one is too lazy (or "I ain't got no time for dat!") to figure shit out by himself.

But yes people, there is a grind. The same kind of grind as in ActionRPGs like Diablo etc.. but now that I think about it... some people even complain/ed about that too.. Scratch Head

Oh and... EoD Stash is still too small!!! Rage

I just run to the border then follow it until I get to an extraction point..

Basically just survive on your way out with as much loot as you can carry. No "need" to kill people, but it's a kill-or-be-killed situation most of the time (every time with scavs if you play as your PMC character).

I play alone, but I've seen people with LFG tags in the chat window, and I've seen videos with people squadding up.

I might give it a try. Try adding 'Hmuda' if there's a friend list or something.

Everything inside the secure container is...well...secure. If you die, everything inside is safely extracted. Very handy to put maps, keys, or task-sensitive stuff inside.

Nope, the secure container and your melee weapon are the only things you don't actually lose upon death. Which is why you can see a lot of people with a single hatchet running around (people seem to call them "hatchlings" Razz ). Spawning with just that gear guarantees a 100% risk-free excursion. Very unlikely to succeed, but if successful, it can be very lucrative.

Insuring stuff will give you a chance of recovery if you die. If people pick them up, it's lost, but if they are still in the game-world when the raid ends, you'll get it back after a little while of "recovery-time". I've seen people stashing stuff in bushes that they insured when things get hairy, hoping nobody loots them. Something I REALLY need to start doing more often. I lost a lot of good stuff when I got shot in the gut and dehydrated half-way to the extraction.

Thanks again, that was a pretty decent raid. Finally broke my shitty streak of getting one-shotted by aim-bot scavs on Customs. Razz

Tried the beta for a few hours (got the 7 day key) and all i can say is that i'm glad i didn't buy it.
It has potential, there is no denying that, but right now, in the current state the game is nowhere near worth the money they're asking for.

It runs bad, cca 40-45 fps on high settings except shadows on uItra because otherwise it looks terrible (even on ultra shadows are damn ugly). There are a lot of graphical bugs going on and gameplay is still very far from a smooth experience.

Played this a bit.

First map I entered I died due to wound bleeding; second time I extracted at 'old gas station' and I didn't keep anything I found on map (due to BETA game status, I assume).

Game looks... depressing. Both due to the 'artistic' direction AND the 'downgraded' ugly graphics. I think STALKER looked (looks) better than this, even at this time.

Overall I like it and I think it's worth giving it a chance, but only when the game will be TRULY finished - probably in a year or two. If they keep developing OFFLINE mode (as they claim now) and fix the performance / graphics, I might even consider buying this.

Offline mode will not be there on release, it will be gone. It's only there now for testing.
Thank god for that, this game doesn't need PVE shit modes in it.

As far as I remember the visuals on lower settings were abysmal? That's why he might think that it's bad visually? Just a guess on my side cause I'm not home to test it right now.
