Map is too big for PvP
I want to share my opinion here. I am sure many of you will disagree with me, because it takes away from the survival aspect and safe base building.

IMO I think private PvP servers should be able to play only 1 sector of map to have ~100 players in one sector. For example, B2 sector walled off completely and be the only sector in the game world. I think this will be amazing and very fun for people to play. I play on high loot, high player count servers and still is very hard to find players to fight. I sometimes run for hundreds of hours in game without encountering enemy players.

Even if I camp airfield tower or some other good high traffic area, sometimes I spend hours staring at the screen with no action :(

Someone gets a kill and logs off to be safer for him when people know his position. I also propose that your body stay pernamently in game (like sleeping) so if someone finds you logged off in game they can still kill you. You will be dead when you respawn. In term, you have to hide yourself when you log off cuz people will find you "sleeping".

This will eliminate the bunker "campers" who log on and off only in bunkers. They will have to hide themselves inside bases or bushes when they sleep.

I love this game, but I find it hard to have knife, pistol and submachine gun fights at close range. Usually getting sniped is the only way to kill and die. I think if you bunch more players closer to each other will be a better KOS deathmatch fun.

More boxing PvP will nice addition that will be seen, when players spawn next to each other :D

It sounds like you would like another BR game.

No, I want Scum private servers to do this not official. Its not fun to stare at screen for hours and die to sniper campers.

The events are also a consideration.

I do not play PVP, but for a private server, to have this as an option, I think would give you folks something more to do. No reason why you guys cannot have options to enhance your gameplay. I can see this being an option within the server, and being fun to change the grid squares to keep it from becoming bland. I think if the devs wanted to, they could whip something up that gives one the ability to do so.

I love how big the map is. Then again, I like minimal contact, while enjoying the possibility of running into and needing to avoid people.

Every idea is worth mentioning, some people want a bigger map, some want a smaller map and some are happy with the current one. I guess these opinions are based on your own playstyle, if you want more action of course you would want a smaller map and if you want to remain hidden, of course you would want a bigger map. There is also the factor of filling any map size with various content. Some additions can change the way you move around the world, even though the size remains the same.
We do consider your opinions and we value them a lot, so having these threads is really helpful!

You forgot about those MP Co-Op or SP people who don't care about PvP at all Frie. Or.. did you?

How about we stop balancing every little feature (and big feature like the map) around PvP-centric needs?
