It's pretty cool, my first ever wipe, meaning my first ever event in this game, and it's pretty cool. I like that the game is spiced up now. It's just that this event is very against solo playing and people without friends. With the game being dark pretty much most of the time, and very hard to see anything more than 3 meters in front of you, night vision equipment is very expensive or even sold out. So equipment in general is much more valuable since it's hard to buy night vision. Yes, you can buy a flashlight, but night vision helped with seeing far and pretty much everything that surrounded you. With a flashlight, you can only see a bit further and what is in that small circle. So, having friends with you is going to help because at least they can grab your gear and hide it somewhere for it to return, but if you're a solo player and die, there's a good chance that thing is gone. Also, this event seems to not be for players that are low leveled and poor. I have quite a few friends that are like that, and they are going to suffer because they can't see shit as a scav and everything that they're going to need for this event, like night vision and augmentin (or even the antidote stim), is going to be absolutely expensive for them or even sold out. If they went solo for the next few days, they're going to run out of gear to use as if they started the game. That's what I have to say for the event, what do you guys think?
(yes, go ahead and shit on me, I know there's 1000 more posts about how "bad" the event is, I just wanted to share my own thoughts)
((Also, this event is not beginner friendly AT ALL. Yes, the toxin is rare to get, but how are they going to buy their augmentin, they can't. They also won't be able to get their night vision, so they have to run flashlights no matter what. Overall, new players are just going to suffer, even more to if they don't squad up with anybody))
