Empty Safe
Every time I unlock a safe, there is nothing in it. could someone explain what is happening, and how I can avoid this. I have master infiltrator maxed out, so im not really spending time/effort or loosing bobby pins. I get a little irked though when you hope to find that death claw gauntlet Plan at the cemetery, and all the safes are locked, and empty. :VGRUMPY:

I suppose, i just feel like when i lock-pick a level 3 safe, there should be something in it, like how there used to be in previous updates. I'm not saying this is because of recent update, but i only started recently experiencing this

I have done some more research, from what i read "assuming its accurate info" the safes dont reset after time passes, in game or real life time. The safes/locked loot containers reset after a number of safes have been unlocked, and i haven't found any info claiming to know what that number is. Lets say it's 30 "for sake of explaining how it works" after 30 safes have been unlocked, the 1st safe will have reset etc. so if i only unlock the 3 i am interested in every day, they wont reset until i have unlocked it 30 times etc. I don'T claim this info is correct, nor do i claim i fully understand the claim, im just repeating what i read, and what i think it means, all of this could be way off. Can anyone confirm this is true or not?

there is the 150 other things looted mechanic, and this works for containers as well.

Most of those things have individual loot. If I empty a safe it will still have loot for other people.

I agree, this didnt use to happen, and i played for years. I just started experiencing this in the last week or so

This has actually been happening for at least a year or so now, not just recently. Around the time when they realized people were just hopping servers to collect junk. like the plastic in Mogantown High school. Isn't of grabbing it all and hopping servers, you didn't get a refresh until they did the weekly refresh on tuesdays.

Well, whenever you finally get the safes at the graveyard to respawn, a bit of advice if you don't already know, as long as you don't take anything out of it(looking is fine, just don't loot it), you can server hop to get a new safe with new loot.

255 looted items, or the weekly reset..........which ever comes first.

Once you go past 255 the oldest items drop off and reset.

Just enough that you can't sit in one spot and farm specific junk. Terrible actually having to play the rest of the game when you just want to be in a corner. Burned a ton of resources setting up a shelter and can't finish because I have to go hoover up more junk. Still selling guns at the train stations is great caps, it's just difficult chasing down player vendors.

Why some people can't put the dang machine somewhere obvious. :meatytears:
