Weird it's taking forever to log in now and when I finally matched it put me in a game with 20 people. Same size map and timers, just a handful of players on a giant map.

I just died to someone who died in the kill zone, but like, after they died. I guess they fired their last shot, died, and THEN the server had me killed.

But hey I'm happy with 6th place and 5 kills.

This game is projectile weapons so you could fire off a shot, die and then have the bullet land in someone's dome.

I don't like backpacks either. There's no real interesting tradeoff with using them or any alternatives. It's just annoying to not have the inventory space.

You should start with a level 1 backpack imo. You can't pick up anything else til you find it anyway so it would remove backtracking and stuff

I honestly wouldn't mind some sort of trade-offs like the more poo poo you're carrying the louder you are.

I'm Arma 3 BR, we'd often ditch our backpacks near the end of the game to gain that low profile, especially if we knew we'd have to go prone in a field. Of course, you will be giving up carrying capacity in the end, and the vests don't hold a lot in this game.

Probably not, if you've seen the cheating videos, I don't think they have any color to them.

I'd personally rather have it so the less stuff you are carrying the faster you go. Like, I'd love to be super speedy in my tighty whities and a pistol/melee. Likewise I wouldn't mind being a bit slower while max looted/kitted out to the point of absurdity.

It's probably my personal mod goal if the tools/lua or whatever comes out.

No loot tables are kinda lovely, it seems they couldn't find a middle ground between way too much poo poo getting spawned and not enough.

They took the mil base barracks which use to spawn like 10+ rifles in each building and now maybe you'll find 1 if you're lucky. It feels butchered.
