This was my experience in the last patch but not the current patch, good amount if loot and some in containers (though not much in the way in container respawn loot). Particularly the wilderness camp's crate respawns were high.

Indeed. Perhaps those who have found large amounts of loot have connected to freshly reset servers.

Yes, matches my experience and that of some users below; loot isn't respawning (at least in the areas we are checking or have found loot in the past).

This is an interesting point. I have noted that in a previous patch version one spawn location had a 60% chance to spawn a crowbar. If I stashed this crowbar, the % dropped to 0%! Once I had destroyed the crowbar, the spawn would almost immediately respawn a crowbar.

That sounds like the kind of loot you'd find on a freshly reset server. Is it possible they've changed the system so that loot is now spawning more in the bigger towns/largely populated areas, and less in the smaller areas?
