"we will not allow drops to have guns"

"drops will now contain guns"


"We are not interested in selling weapons. Weapons are only acquired by crafting or exploring and finding one. We are not selling power.”

"We will NOT be selling Guns, Ammo, Food, Water... i.e. That's kind of the whole game and it would suck in our opinion if we did that."

Not an issue for me, but may be unfair to others that do not want to spend money or are unable to.

-- Update --
Spent played for about 4-5 hours last night(1/19/14) and spent most of the time just running around town to town, not finding a single item. I have found berries and woodsticks in the forests. No food, weapon, any other items to be found. Played on both PVE and PVP server. Found a group of people that were calling in airdrops and they said that is where they got all of their items as they were unable to find them anywhere else.

In the game's current condition, I would say it is worse than DayZ Standalone at the moment. But this is just early access and only been out for a couple of days now. There has been numerous patches to fix various issues, so there is still hope and devs are definitely listening to the players(unlike DayZ?). I think this game still has the chance to be way better than DayZ Standalone as it still looks promising with the new features they plan on introducing and the fact it has only been out less than a week(whereas DayZ has been out for a year I believe?). But in the condition now, I would say DayZ is the better game.

Edit: Played a bit more. Found I was unable to craft buildings as your backpack size is not big enough to hold all of the items. Created a 1200 slot backpack and it was still not enough. Only way so far it seems is to create a storage to place your items inside(which is accessible by other player) and craft it that way.

Edit2: Still not recommended. They should really remove houses/bases as a lot of servers are just occupied with people/teams with tons of gear. Really hard for someone new to jump straight into the game and get anywhere as you will just be killed on sight everytime. DayZ is still the way to go.
