I love-hate the new scav karma

I absolutely love the ideas and the implementations they put in place for scav karma.

I absolutely hate the ideas and the implementations they put in place for scav karma.

So far this wipe, I am trying to do mainly scavs, and I love it. I will play PMC's every once in a while, but the changes they made to scavs make the game so much more interesting, and I love it. I love seeing another player scav, wiggling, jumping, then sharing loot from our bags and either teaming up or just wave and going opposite ways. It makes being a scav a lot more interesting and fun.

I hate seeing another player scav, wiggling, jumping, then they share loot from their bags, and as I go into my bag to give them something juicy and get shot in the head point-blank.

But in all seriousness. Many things could fix scav karma, like easier ways to gain it back. It's so brutal when an AI scav hops on the grenade launcher and starts shooting 30m to the side of me and moving closer, so I shoot him. Then I can't run. I have 3 scavs shooting me and chasing me. I have to lose even more scav karma to get out alive, and then the whole raid is ruined because of a mistake. Or when a scav starts shooting near you, and you take it as an act of hostility. But that's also what I love about it. The unknown, the working together, no longer am I running around as a scav looking for AI with the best gun to shoot and steal. Now I have to judge every shot. I have more to lose. I love it. I also hate it.
