Military bases / locations, loot, and robots
I was quite happy with a few of the changes in the most recent patch, except for the robot "Nerf".

I really felt like the devs were taking advice from hyped up fortnite / PUBG streamers that never touched a game like scum or dayz, wanting instant action for their viewers.

Heck even some of the streamers thought the 3rd person camera was "Broken" because they couldn't be cheesy to use a around the wall camera peek because of how line of sight works (Which i love thank you devs, but im off on a tangent and ill finish my point).

As a person that speaks from playing previous titles such as Arma 2 DayZ mod and its load of content, to DayZ standalone, military bases should be VERY difficult to get into. If anything, there needs to be more robots, and a robot BUFF. Maybe even person-sized drones or turrets inside of bunkers to make people more interested in the idea of crafting and going town to town instead of just getting the best loot in the game and going on a "Battle royale"(Which scum sorta is with "fame" points, but with a heavy lean to survival) kinda mindset.

My only other thought is to reduce military loot in military locations, including the unguarded military locations that I luckily came across.

Just more robots or drones, and less top-tier loot would make the game more difficult in a good kinda way.

Only my experienced spicey input / opinion

Thanks for reading!

I disagree, the robots are still a bit broken so adding more would just be annoying at this poit.

Less loot means bigger parties get em all

I mean I got one-shot killed by a robot while behind a tree, at least 200 yards away in forest cover. My only warning it spotted me came as it shot me, so no time to react. So if anything there needs to be more nerfing. Their accuracy is still frustrating, I can understand one-shot kill at point blank, but at a moving target 200+ yards away, one-shot should not be acceptable.
