Increased Loot Spawn Areas

Recommended Posts

A week ago, there was a glitch in a DayZ server I regularly play on, the loot spawning was broken in a military base, there were guns everywhere, supplies for weeks. But I'll start at the beginning of the story for theatric purposes. Feel free to skip to my closing statement though haha.

 

My group of four were travelling through Elektro when we came across a well armed individual, we weren't exactly armed to the teeth branding only a pickaxe and a few other measly weapons. The guy didn't shoot us (surprisingly) but instead told us of a mystical promised land, where you couldn't see the floor because it was covered in guns and other high value loots like fire axes and hunting backpacks and magazines to supply a whole army. We were skeptical at first but we didn't have anything else to lose. We made the pilgrimage to this military base north of Balota, we arrived at the outskirts and saw a shed, inside, loots. Dozens of loot objects from lockpick kits to pitchforks. We then journeyed further to the military base and... It was beautiful... We stocked up, each of us now carrying an AKS with a few magazines each, I myself picked up a dry bag and four medkits from the hospital, I also donned a paramedics jacket dubbing myself the medic of Chernarus. But then a group of ten or so barged through the gates of the base, I was in the office building on the east side when I heard shots. One of my group was dead and the other two were pinned down. I carefully moved up and aimed my gun at one of them, I shot him in the back of the head then aimed my gun at the next one, from my cover, they didn't know where I was, I tried to negotiate, saying I won't shoot again if they let my friends leave. They argued that I already killed one of them, I argued that they did the same. In the end, my friends snuck out while the group was looking for me, I did the same. This was one of the most intense moments I've had in DayZ, cause of a loot glitch.

 

So my suggestion is, randomized loot increases. Not on the scale I described but somewhat close. I believe these sorts of temporary adjustments to the loot system in isolated areas can create some of the best stories people can have in DayZ.
