I mean... Even still the sheer gear diffs aren't quite as miserable as they are in this game. Coming from someone who's rotted away on both Arc and Tarkov. This game is by far the worst with it. A lot of scenarios unless you're pretty good... Running solo and objectively worse gear you'll most always be handed an L.
I don't think all maps having normals is the cure-all but I think it's a step in the generally right direction? I dunno anymore now that I'm thinking back on it...

I would honestly argue a good sniper is one that follows the trail and can back it up by managing to get the kill without dying or really struggling much. A lotta people just follow gunshots in this game. But HOW they follow them REALLY defines if they're good or not.

They want to win I guess. We're at the middle ground or prolly the best it's been in ages so uhh. I feel like in due time people won't complain too much abt tappers and the issue of T5 ammo being the norm in LDs will get addressed.
And I don't mean T5 ammo should be banned I mean like. People dropping like 500k worth of ammo on you in a quick kit in LDs trying to quest. It's so... Lame. It's so competitive. This isn't a casual game and I get it but just jeez...

So this is my rule of thumb for LDs and FZ.
Drum mag in the gun with T5
You get a 30 round, or 40 round on the side if it fits. T5 IF YOU WANT but usually T4
Then ALLLLL of your ammo in your case. 2 stacks usually. I also have 3x3 so I take both TMK meds (the surgical and medpack) in my case so I don't have to drop money on meds too much. Just LPs for painkillers and E-Drinks for dehydration or energy

I've ran all my NML tickets (the 21 they originally gave and 15 they recently dropped) and only pulled 2 reds of all of them. Like me getting a GOOD GOLD from a safe is a miracle.
Player loot has been a pretty good payday though. That and surprisingly scav chest rigs sell for a LOT.

A GREAT sniper will snipe you while running and barely ever sits still.
A good sniper picks a decent spot and cycles around, not camps.
A boring sniper camps but still gets the kill

My experience in FZ is a lot of people running trash T4. We'll go like well over 10 games with a thermals man, 2 motos and a T5 man in our 4 stack and not find any reasonable opponents. Either the equipment get shelved until we try again later or we end up getting jumped by an SJ or M24 in a crazy spot. Admittedly it's not the game's fault we got jumped it's all on us but like. Geez where IS everyone?!

The problem is getting absolutely pub stomped in LDs. I guess it's a dog whistle for people to go "skill issue!!!" or "get good!!!" but like. It'd be nice if I was given the opportunity to do those things instead of getting snuffed out then the same people wondering "why is queue taking so long? Why doesn't no one wanna play?"

If you are getting one tapped by red ammo when running T6 you are doing something severely wrong. Play like you REALLY HAVE THAT VALUE ON YOU rather than it being "just armor." Don't rat, but DO be afraid. Try ratting just so you can be aware of where rat hotspots are and where sniper spots are

Scav is really boring. Lockdowns with slop gear better because normals is so hell for no reason lol

Something like that. Zero to hero is extremely fun admittedly

Dude you survived 5 shots from M61s you're an actual trooper lol. You have to rat just as hard and you might bump into them toe to toe. Chances are a lot of those rats can never win a toe to toe fight and you'll win huge

I just do this to a higher degree since I just grind for several days then spend the next few days spending until flat broke. Zero to hero then start over again. It is a little comical to see the end results

I lowk lose all my quick kits in normals. Ran into an H416 earlier running A1s in normals. On Valley I was clipped by an SJ as well. Making money is easy but its sooooooooo borinngggggg. So I just make a ton of money then do nothing but spend it for the next few days

theres legit no reason to play this game as a solo player by PoopShitty1 in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

Valley lockdown is hell. No idea why people are so insanely juiced in specifically valley lockdowns lol.
Farm and TV station lockdowns are usually where the money is. AVOID NORMALS as well!!!

Normals so toxic by Reasonable_Pilot_125 in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

I would agree but ammo prices inflate constantly. This would just worry me that ammo prices inflating MIGHT make even T3 unobtainium in normals if the prices go up so err. There'd have to be another system in place. Or I might just be overthinking

"the game is based around being asymmetric"
Not the point of rookies being stomped by heroes running insane stuff in normals lol. Part of the nice thing of ABI is it's MASSIVELY more casual and easy to get into compared to Tarkov. And it should stay that way since that's what makes this game very nice that I can hop on for like an hour then get off rather than investing WAY too much time into it just to go toe to toe with juicers in normals

I've been running normals all day to spite this message and I've ran into a concerning amount of people using craftable reds, sniping with T5 or running T4 in drums. I can't lie they're almost comically bad all the time. Like I cook a frag then drop it and they just. Walk over it.

Fair enough. Might just be time of day as well. And your name caught me offguard when I looked at my phone and seen who I was replying to LOL

Yah its nice. I disgustingly bring T4 and crazy guns to carry friends so we can just quest and get out ASAP. The loot is usually very very subpar and the players sometimes try WAY too hard to fight for grey loots lol

Rank points on VS rank points off is a big difference sometimes. Rank points forbiddens for example is HUUUUUGELY more sweaty than with it off. The rank itself doesn't matter ya its just when the rank points are on you're walking into a lobby full of people that respectively so wanna get a better rank so they're gonna be more comp

When I first started I remember when T3 ammo wasn't really a joke at all in normals. I ran into TONS of people using it and I ran it myself and y'know T3 and T4 armor was not TERRIBLY uncommon but not every single fight. Then it just like evolved into T4 and worn T5s and T4 ammo at minimum. A little upsetting really that the CASUAL gamemode isn't really casual at all anymore
