The ACOG is very bad for me because whenever I pick one I try to snipe people from 400 meters and never kill anyone.

Won a bunch of streamers' custom games tonight, although there was no money on the line. Shotguns, crossbows and cars was ridiculous. SMGs only is pretty good. Modes that still include ARs or Snipers feel largely the same.

I also won a solo game with the double barreled shotgun and 5 bandages. My loot luck was terrible, I found only a choke for the shotty and spent rest of the time running and hiding. Circles ended up in Pochinki so I camped there till there was only like 15 left and I had to move. I saw a few guys in the streets and basically oneshotted them. I didn't have time to loot anyone because of the circles :/

I managed to use my bandages at 10% hp in a house before the circle converged on the church. Some guys were fighting in there while I used the minute to bandage my sorry rear end...

Finally had to go outside the house and saw some guy getting owned outside a small hut. I crouched up the hill and saw the last guy's head peeking over the hill in front of me. One shotgun round later I was the winner, with only like 5 kills.

If you get lucky and the circle ends up in a city, you don't apparently need much loot. Just a good gun, and a S686 is the best there is for close quarters combat.

I hardly saw anybody that whole game until the end, just kicked back and watch the blue wall put in some work.

686 is so good. I will frequently keep one through the end game if I have a choke, since it's an instant kill/down if you connect.

In one squad game I killed a whole squad with it. They were too afraid to rush me so I moved around a house and concrete fences and got them one by one. The reload speed is very nice too, but of course the best feature is that it shoots both rounds nearly instantly.

I have the worst luck with loot. I dropped into a small area with 3-4 houses with one other dude, and the house I chose first had an uzi with a few boxes of 9mm and nothing else but clothes. A minute or two later I hear the other dude approaching so I hide in a corner and spray him in the face. He's got a SCAR, AKM, a medkit, and a shitton of ammo, and armor. So unless I get absurdly lucky it's almost always better to just grab whatever gun you can and go take some other dude's poo poo.

Wow. First of all I wasn't complaining, second of all it wasn't really a lovely area if the one other guy near me had all that stuff. My point simply being that killin' dudes is almost always a better (and more interesting) way of getting stuff.

I think he is saying that if you drop into statistically more fruitful loot areas instead of small areas with 3-4 houses but you still get screwed on loot then you know that you are truly unlucky and should pray to PU for forgiveness.

I don't know how much more than one uzi, some 9mm ammo and maybe an energy drink or a vest you should reasonably expect from a single house. The other guy obviously got insanely lucky but at the same time I get the feeling he probably looted 3 or 4 times more (efficiently).

Gotta say I agree with that sentiment. The anecdote may have just been poorly framed with the "luck" thing. I had my share of spergy, playing-safe masochism in dayz and you're right, gently caress that.
