Got fed up with my addiction to the flea market and seeming inability to do anything but the flea market (130mil in stash but only 4 pmc runs total? bleh) so I called it quits the night before last and deleted all of my stuff and then reset my account for good measure. RIP 90 million rubles and 40mil of gear but it's not like I was gonna do anything with it anyway. Maybe I can finally play a different game now. Heh, who am I kidding. I'll probably reinstall in a few days and start playing the flea market again. And by 'playing', I mean buy underpriced stuff, part it out, sell the high volume stuff on the flea and the rest to vendors. It's weirdly addicting.

The best way to 'play' the flea market is to barter scam, i'm currently at 13 red rebels i refuse to sell because of the 3.5 million tax

Got to 4,5kk roubles last night and decided to do some cleaning in my stash, so now I have 3 full weapon cases, 2 pistol cases, item case, med case, dogtag case, scav box, ammo case, mag case and 30 assorted backpacks ranging from tbags to beta 2. And 3 times i went into Interchange with the idea of fighting to the death to lose some gear and 3 times i extracted thinking "yeah no this is some good loot I might not be so lucky next time" while finding no more than one live scav or player (even when running towards gunfire). I might actually try hunting Killa next because drat it's getting hard to die in the mall without getting loaded first. I chose Interchange because Ragman asked me nicely to kill some dudes there.

Also went into Factory with a Saiga 9mm for the "stand next to 3 exits" quest because hey, 2 free bitcoin, and domed some sweaty gear lord who must have loved his Gen 4 armor a lot, because when I looted it off him it had 3/10 durability

Is there any sense as to when the next big patch is? I have no idea how frequently these things are rolled out... do they correspond with wipes, or do big patches happen independently from them?

And why do you call him a 'gear lord'? It sounds horribly racist in my head. Also, he might not have known about the durability mechanics...

He was lvl 30-something, and I call him a gear lord because he rocked an airframe with that gen 4 and a fully kitted M4 with two 60 round mags full of m80.

RIP 90 million rubles and 40mil of gear but it's not like I was gonna do anything with it anyway. Wow. At least give your poo poo away (to me) if you are gonna "quit". Put all your poo poo into a few valuables then drop it for someone (me). You can pass of a lot of money by just putting it into a few keys inside a SICC case and dropping the case for someone (still me). Then someone (again, me) can do a few thicc runs with thermals and poo poo on your dime. But I don't admonish you for going for a fresh start. I'll double down on the funnest way to play this game is with nothing and see what you can come out of a raid with. It's just so much fun beating someone that is stacked with gear when you have nothing. Going into a run with a pistol and walking out with S-Tier gear just gives you such a rush. I think that's why I love scav runs so much. You have such a disadvantage, have no risk and can come out feeling like a boss if it goes well. More often than not, you just die to dumb poo poo. But that 1 run when it all works out makes up for that. My last run with a scav was just finding a couple dead bodies on a hill, grabbing their poo poo and running away. I started with nothing and walked out with everything I need for several runs. It would be so fun to start a competition with no loot and see who can come out with the most rubles with no deaths. Everyone starts with a pistol and after 24 hours, the person with the most rubles after liquidating all their gained assets wins. You die, you lose. That shits dumb as an esports competition, but as a casual thing, it could be very fun to break up the monotony late patch.

That's loving awesome. I love shooting people in the face or legs. gently caress your body armor. The face or the knees don't give a poo poo about you. I know they are reworking armor and will make it more strategic, but until they do, i'm gonna aim for two places: your face or your ankles. Even after the rework, i'm just gonna get more juicy spots. I'll shoot you in the ribs, the thighs, etc. There might be an armor that covers all that, but you are gonna move like a turtle and i'm gonna exploit that.
