So I have had this game since the closed Beta release of 2017, and I have come across hundreds of Hatchling, and lightly geared, low-level players(10 and under) and I haven't seen too many posts or any recent ones.
Factory is a hard map. Whatever the devs were thinking when they put "Easy" on the difficulty level but it is far from it, and here's why I think why, and why it is not good map for New players to be learning the game on.
- No matter where you spawn there is someone 10 meters or less from you.
- The size may be easy to learn but the corners and angles might be one of the hardest.
- Scavs are everywhere.
- There is not many profitable loot spawns
- As a players level 5 or under chances are you don't have a factory key, so there is only one exit, that many scummy players like to camp.
More reasons but unless this gets some upvotes no point in adding any.
