I've been playing the game for many hours now with the new loot changes, the changes have made the game feel very dull and makes it hard to want to play.

while I do enjoy searching for loot and the a struggle to find when you want/need. The changes have made it quite a dull painstaking experience. the coast and most of the mid tier towns feel pointless, they don't have anything worth it in them. the progression the game once had feels gone. there is no mid tier anymore, just a mad dash to tier 3 to find a bk-18 then get one tap to do it again.

my 1 life involved and northeast to west loot route not finding much of anything i did get a luck plate carrier at Kamensk MB but that's it then nothing till stary yar where i found a tundra only to die 40 seconds later to a super geared dude Im assuming was coming from Tisy.

which leads me to a question what are freshies going to do to defend themselves on the coast when geared people come? there is no weapons there to be found no shot gun with a single round to give to you a chance. the games loot economy feels like it has been set up for pve focused play. instead of a good pvp/pve balance that it once had.

I don't believe these are great changes for the game while I do agree with higher tier sniper rifles being harder to find I don't think they should be competing for the same loot spawns as a bk-18.

I do believe however to much was removed from the coast. There needs to be loot on the coast to set you up for the journey inland, and to give the freshies chance to defend themselves. I think low tiers stuff like stab vest ,repeaters ,shotguns ,etc should still be spawning on the coast, I'm not opposed to them being more rare but they still should be there to find.

I wont say to much more has it has seemed to be mentioned quite a bit by a lot of the community, but this is a bad change that ruins the flow of the game and makes may things pointless or redundant. doesn't make it easier or harder just more tedious and less fun to play.
