Having a cap on high end weapons like the M4 or AK is really killing the game right now, it is impossible to find because people just stash them underground so they cant spawn, duping makes this 10x worse and also makes it so only dupers have access to these kinds of weapons. At the moment of the game the best weapon you can hope for is an SKS or Winchester. This needs to be changed, I would make it so for instance only 5 (or any number) of a specific weapon can be on THE GROUND at the same time, this makes it more rare while not making it impossible to find due to dupers. Please listen to the community, this is a major downside of the game at the moment.

I agree, this is an issue worth talking about. But ‘killing the game’ is the overstatement of the century. This wasn’t a problem several months ago, but now persistence is fixed, the loot economy needs further tweaking. Especially regarding buried, and stored weapons. It’s a little disheartening when you spend hours looting military bases, and get nothing in return. High tier weapons should definitely be rare, but I feel it’s a bit too harsh at the moment.

Well it kinda is killing the game as several of new/veteran player coming back to the game which I've met ingame always talk about the cap on high tier weapons being the number one reason of why they dont want to play the game, this is also the case for most of my friends.

Player pop numbers say the game is not dying. The core DayZ experience is already there. If those people don’t enjoy the game now, they likely never will. I am much more concerned about performance and bugs driving players away. I would love the CLE tweaks in future updates. Perhaps when a certain new map drops?

I agree the loot is messed up right now. I have been playing again for 3 months and have never found a M4 or any ak beside the 74U. I have night vision scopes and now guns to go with it.
