I just wanna voice that I don't believe the changes to the loot Economy are good ones, it feels like now being geared in the game takes you from low tear to high tier with no middle game at all, sks and AK-74 not spawning at military bases is really odd especially on a map like Chernarus where such weapons would be standard in post Soviet military bases.
I feel I don't have to go into much more detail because honestly just read TheRunningManz ticket on this matter, he sums it up quite well better than I could. So please consider not making this an official change to the game I believe it will do more harm than good to the experience across the board sadly.
