Spawned next to Cherno and felt like checking it out for the first time as I had nothing to lose but my virtual life, found the chuch and there was four unlooted corpses outside and I found another six indoors.
From zero to hero gear in a couple minutes, picked up compass, map, M4, M1911+ton of ammo, tent, food, water etc. Got ambushed like 30 mins later at airfield while exiting a hangar but managed to hunt him down with my broken bones but ended up getting mauled by a Zombie as I killed the survivor, at least I recovered my gear after the running back just to die again to a sniper and have all my good stuff taken.

The low ammo crappy makarov IS what you would put into a survival focussed game, removing it seems just completely pointless and just another barrier to get into the game without reading a godamn manual.
Also sneaking systems are all fun and such but the extremely shitty controls and the bad programming just make it either a extremely slow ride of boredom or playing it more loose which makes it impossible to shake the aggro before you can grab your items.
This just feels like one of those bad patches that makes a game stupidly difficult after fans have been complaining it was too easy, I think I'll wait till future updates fix this shit and focus on the many better games I have.
Edit: And yeah, I am kind of pissed off, from what I've seen from the numerous Destiny material this seemed like an incredibly enjoyable game, to only find out now that to reach that point you have to spend 15 min to an hour depending on luck and spawn position to even get a basic weapon, from where you can actually start playing this game, if this was a one or couple of times thing I would'nt mind but at this point I spent so much time on that bullshit, it's just frustrating.
I get the idea of having no weapons to fight and being chased, in Amnesia or Penumbra for instance it works incredibly well, however there it works because it's actually scary due to the game's atmosphere, story and enemy design, in this case it's like you're being chased by a bunch of annoying parasites that sound like dogs and wear idiotic french berets, it takes me out of the game and wastes a lot of my time on tedious busywork.
It appears you've gone into the game with expectations of being handed a rifle to cut down hordes and hordes of zombies. This isn't left for dead. This game is all about PvP and hording awesome gear. The frustration you're feeling is what you should be feeling at the start of the game. It makes every experience you get vastly more enjoyable. But hey if you're hating life because you can't figure out how to shake zombies then don't bother Ah yes, complaining about removing a makarov now I'm a left 4 dead nub that wants to be handed a rifle. Nothing in my post even remotely says I 'Wanted to be handed a rifle.', as I've also said I've watched Destiny play this shit for hours, i.e. I had a pretty good idea of what I was supposed to expect BEFORE THE FUCKING PATCH HIT. At least read the fucking post before you start your condescending routine. I would say lying to another to gain an advantage is all fair game. This game is about hunting and deceiving the other players. Zombies are just thrown into the mix to add another threating variable to the game. I read the entire post and man you have a lot to learn. My advice to you is that you need more paranoia in your play simple as that. Do not trust anyone if you are not in TS with. Oh and one last thing. I would of done the same exact thing to get the upper hand against you if I was in his position.

At least read the fucking post before you start your condescending routine. Do you know how bad a makarov is? 2 clips of that gun only serve to alert zombies to where you are. It's not even worth picking up. I find your inability to deal with zombies hilarious. Either play the game and learn how to play or stop coming here to complain. It's not the patch thats breaking the game for you its your impatience and reluctance to learn.
If you're unable to make use of a makarov I have no idea how you where able to play long enough to become such a pompous ass. Now that someone gave me the manual to the axe the zombies arn't much of an issue anymore, your comments make it sounds like you're personally invested in this patch change, just trolling or do you honestly like being defenceless until you've done your silly loot spawn routine?
And the makarov is most certainly the problem, an axe is manageable but just having a makarov would save me massive amounts of time on finding drop locations and this terrible form of stealth.

Would those amazing items be a m24, ak, nv googles, most tools, coyote backpack? (and 2 antibiotics and assorted goodies)
If so no hard feelings, I'd been alive too long ^.^.

The more I play, the more I begin to understand that I really don't need to sneak around at all (If I have just spawned and don't care if I die). Just sprint from location to location looking for drops, zombies are basically nothing but an annoyance if I do find something I wish to pick up, they literally take a minute or two too lose.
Tomorrow is another day suriving, learned a lot today.

I seriously cannot wait until they implement punishment for Alt+F4'ing. I've been in firefights with about 15 people or so the past ~2 weeks, and killed maybe 3, when I should have killed all 15. The rest just disconnect as soon as they know they're gonna die. Just had some guy take potshots at me in Berezino as soon as I enter, I duck into the supermarket, he follows me in, I get the jump on him and unload, I hit him a couple times and he disconnects before I can kill him. Then right after that as I'm leaving the town I get sniped by someone else. I could have Alt-F4'ed too but fuck that. Really aggravating that so many people are such bitches and don't even take dying like they're supposed to.

in our defense... we did climb the mountain in expectance of blowing up the UAZ... we had driven up 1/2 way and drove down it going full speed and didnt flip.
So we climb to the top and Nick finds that lip and says we should jump off that with the UAZ. We spend 45 minutes driving the jeep up an incline that was almost straight verticle. We get there, i back away from the ledge, stomp on the gas/turbo fly off the ramp doing 30.
Who knew jeeps were sooooooooooo nose-heavy. After 1 second of airtime we look thru the windshield only to see rock directly ahead of us. We slam into the rock from about 20 feet in the air.
Nick falls thru the windshield and dies on impact. I fall through, at 2k blood and bleeding and passed out. The car explodes, im now at 1k blood and still bleeding.
Carmon (who decided against sitting in the back of the jeep with his 3 day old char and AS50 and 25 murders) bandages me, the car blows up again. He drags me away from the car, and waits for me to wake up from my 10 minute coma.
tldr: We drove a jeep off a mountain. Nick died, Carmon saved Maestrosc, and every1 laughed there ass of for 30 minutes.
RIP military UAZ

if you can get from cherno to airfield in 30 minutes, thats a good run. Btw the map isnt so huge as people tend to say it is. Darkfall's map was larger i believe and im amazed how people believe wow's map is smaller than dayz's. wow map was huge.

Yeh the map as large as I first thought it was when I first started playing. I was stuck wayyyy up north, so when I was running back south through nothingness I decided to time myself, only takes just under 4 minutes to run 1000m. So I think you could get from Cherno to the border of the north in just under an hour.

I've got it by killing someone spawning in, as in they appeared infront of me standing still and I axed them to death. Then got a friendly fire kill.
