Has anyone playing MP ever seen these 2 items go up in the special stash? Got 4/5 in the barter perk and the wiki site says you only 2? and 3 respectively.

Seen neither after more than 20 cycles.

Answers based off MP gameplay please.

almost only play MP, I find plenty of beer when I'm out and about so I've never looked... But solar banks, never. To be fair though, I have not perked at all into Barter, ever.

 
In case it's the same as my SP game: I did not see any solar banks at traders until I maxed-out Barter and then they appeared at both my traders. Not expensive either.

 
Panels yes, banks no.

Beer I want to say yes, but like PoppaTot I always seem to find plenty of beer so it's not like I'm really looking. it really isn't as good as A16, it's like they switched to lite beer or some shizz...

Went from a good Lager to a Non Alcoholic Beer is more like it lmao. Pretty much the only thing we use beer in my server for is a comedic toast before I end stream lmao.

 
Thanks for the replies guys. Only reason why I'm differentiating between MP and SP is cos there are some minor differences on MP compared to SP atm, probably unintentionally. Thought this was one of those things.

Guess I'm gonna have to grind to 100 then to see that dang solar bank.

 
Someone still drinks the beer? Why? The boost is so short now and the dbl vision so bad I don't bother. Keep in mind too I rarely used it in A16 either.

Yeah. Now there is a good use!

I haven't seen a diffrence in SP vs MP, since the friends I play with aren't on as much as me, I wind up playing SP still. Even though I can never afford the bank, I always keep an eye out.

Safe-cracking with a stone axe (which I won't bother with unless I found some beer, figure might as well use it). In a hurry to just grab 1 boulder or tree when crafting and realize I'm short. And my new favorite "comedic toasts at the end of your stream" Otherwise pretty much a waste of inventory space these days.

 
Solar panels show up as soon as you take Barter 5. All three known vendors on my map had one as soon as I got the perk. I think it cost 4K?

I only play single player.

I remember how excited I was when I disassembled some solar banks and got a few solar panels. I thought, "SWEET, I'll go make a solar bank" and have some electric lights.

Then I discovered you can't make a solar bank. You can make a generator bank, but not a solar bank. ooooooooookay off to the trader joes.

Then I started looking at the traders, and eventually one trader did get a solar bank for sale, but it was in the secret stash, and it wasn't very expensive.

Panels or banks? I've seen panels right from the get go, banks never.

Started getting solar banks once I hit 5. I was getting solar panels ealier (probaly around 3 or 4) but the actual banks didn't show up until bartering perk level 5.

 
Definitely disappointed in the beer, I figured I could use it early game when I'm carrying too much loot and happen upon some beer but it doesn't last long enough to even really be worth picking up at this point.

 
On MP... my motorbike has glitched out twice. Couldn't interact with it. This is after relogging and server reboots.

My bicycle.. has glitched out once. Couldn't move after dismounting, relogged and lost my toolbelt but backpack intact. Didn't die. Bike vanished.

I figured I'm just gonna go low tech and just trek as far as movement goes. A good stack of beer would still get you home in a jiffy vs no beer.
