Yes, that is the large issue of balancing it. Either you lower it so noobs are not too discouraged, or you increase it and say git gut scrubMileage will vary based on player experience (not XP) and skill. I know some people who still get hit all the time...
Better be careful, or a sea bear might lunge at you from the water's edge.New savegame started, random new world generated and look at the beauty of the position I woke up...

Better draw a circle around yourself. (Props to you if you get the reference.)
Ehrm... I was talking about a shift toward luck, so I actually got better loot.
I'm waiting for stable now.
Don't we already get those labelled "stone tools"
I think this happens because 75% of 1 is effectively 0. It’s actually a little more complicated than this but you get the gist. Hopefully this is something on TFP’s radar but I view it more as a matter of polishing than a must fix bug.
It only works with it at 5 points in the perk. You get the crit bonus on gunslinger 3, but it only activates after 5 hits, then 4 then 3 at 5pts into the perk, which is where you need it with the burst mod.Good questions. Not a 100% sure but looking at the items.xml for a18.4 it doesn't appear that there's any single shot damage difference between the two. And there's nothing special in the ammo9mmBulletBall entries for particular weapons.
Advantages the SMG has over the pistol, besides greater mag capacity;
MaxRange 65 vs 50
DamageFalloffRange 30 vs 18
(could be wrong but my understanding of the range bits is that there's full damage out to the DamageFalloffRange then it starts falling, until at MaxRange it's 0)
SMG is also a bit more accurate, and has slightly less recoil.
No idea if default RPM is effected by using the semi-auto mod. If I had to guess I'd say I think in single shot mode the SMG could fire faster than the Pistols 180 RPM?
Edit: hadn't caught that about the perk - burst bonus. I'll have to look into that; might be worth using a burst mod rather than full auto. Thanks.
That's subjective. Unless i'm in a bloodmoon horde scenario, a modded pistol has more than a big enough mag size for daily usage. I'd take the higher damage variant almost all the time, fire rate and mag size aren't really important when you're used to clicking heads.
Me too! Not trying to one up you if you look at my previous comments I am an avid supporter of permadeath/dead is dead. I do a bunch of things that I think make it more realistic too. No nerd polling, no building other then my base, no taking advantage of pathing with base building, no cheese. I win when its 5000 kills 0 deaths. I play 2hr days though. 1400hrs, been playing since A16. You watch Jonah Birch?
lol I agree, it gets worse though. This should be focused at @Gazz with TFP. Maybe he'll give you a response. If enough people make a fuss maybe they will actually look into it.
Same here. Level two stuff on day one and seems all good to me. Found a blunderbus and trader Joel has a shotty and pump shotty for sale to temp me. But little chance to obtain pump in time I think before stock changes.
I think is been an issue all along. Way too much empty everything, empty airdrops, empty food piles, empty med supplies, ect. I made two previous comments directed at Gazz cause hes the man who handles the loot tables. Also things like college jackets, running shoes, and mega crushes are supposed to be the keys to nightmare speed, I've found 1 mega crush in 32 hours playing and the others don't seem to exist, tires don't exist, and neither do bottles of acid. Pretty much become 100% dependent on the trader and it shouldn't be like that, if you look at the description of the loot abundance option it should just be less in each container, the way it is now it is like only 25% of the containers have anything in them and 75% are empty on 25% loot. I can get by as well but at the same time it is inadequate.
Atlas as well, with a big enough ship you can make it your base. I've played both, be prepared to loose everything but your knowledge though, its the nature of those games.
