I completely LOVE the new economy and looting gameplay loop.
It feels so rewarding and now requires a bit of a skill to get geared up; gone are the days of players rushing to military locations where they know they will find rifles and armor and ammo.

• It forces players to investigate towns and structures that would generally go unnoticed.

• It forces players to explore the map to visit locations that FEW players have actually organically discovered.

• It redesigns the entire game of DayZ to be more lore accurate; nothing should be predictable on the most chaotic day in history.

• It will increase player interactions; and create more suspense, you don't have the best stuff, maybe you might betray this guy.

  • (Seeing as how you both need what the other has...)

• It will force players to abandon the same old tired loot routes and take a new approach at the game.

  • (Creating entirely new playstyles; and this will give the devs something to Develop creatively about!)

    • (If there are new playstyles, there could be new features!)

• I love love LOVE this update, probably should have been a mod, and if it were then it would have been the most subscribed mod of all time.

• Now the devs can crank up the randomness with MORE DYNAMIC EVENTS!

  • Are you sure you want to sprint to tisy? What if you check those weird isolated gunshots you just heard down that dirt road from kamyshovo and find an M4!!!.... ooooo.... or maybe just a badly damaged p1 and a local who couldn't take it anymore. At least there's a potato!...

Gone are the days of players avoiding certain towns and buildings because they feel like "there isn't going to be anything good in there."
How are you supposed to know? Why is everything so predictable on the MOST CHAOTIC DAY IN CHERNARUSSIAN HISTORY. (Aside from free potato day on the FIRST walpurgis.)

The new looting system is PERFECT and I am,(+ and everyone else are), loving it! This is epic, and I can't wait to load up and do another run after this legendary loot run. Now everyone will finally respect and appreciate the sporter + revolver combo. AS THEY SHOULD HAVE FROM THE START. 22LR IS A SUPERIOR AND DRASTICALLY UNDERRATED ROUND FULL OF TACTICAL APPLICATION. The way some players treat 22lr like it isn't even a threat is so... naive. In fact, the real life variant is more lethal than in the game; but can you complain? If 22lr had a performance consistent with it's real life variant, then 22lr would be the meta and the 3 backpack shuffle meta would be over.

22LR REIGNS SUPREME. ALL HAIL THE 22LR THE SUPERIOR ROUND CHAMBER FOR AN ASSAULT WEAPON.

I personally am loving this new loot economy. No complaints, just loads of fun.

I HAVE NO EXPECTATIONS; ONLY WINS. 😎
