Empty Ammo boxes

Has it been 4 hours? If not i really think the timer should be cut down. Too much ammo is never a problem just dont pick em up.

What we’re seeing in @kakarron’s video above - that exactly what I’m seeing pretty much everywhere on the map. including when I go to new areas I haven’t previously explored. I very rarely will find an item or a stack of ammo greater than 10 rounds (typically for a gun I’m not carrying), but the vast majority are empty.

That’s what a lot of people are saying in other threads as well. Granted, I’m sure some reports have to do with the respawn timers and people not knowing better, but this is a genuine issue many of us are encountering. In the last live stream, this kept being dismissed as being linked to the timer having not expired yet. Graham skeptically said something to the effect of “We’re getting reports of empty loot, but you need to wait out the timer”, which was reiterated by the guy playing (sorry, don’t remember his name) adding “sometimes loot boxes are just empty”.

The point is they appeared very dismissive of the reports, chalking them up to “user error”, insinuating this was just people who hadn’t waited long enough for their loot to respawn and it would sort itself out in time. If that’s what they’re thinking, this problem won’t get fixed.

i assumed this meant they removed some boxes in areas but apparently they left the boxes but removed their ability to generate items. might just be because the save file was made before the update. maybe games started after the update have less boxes?

Just aint fun as before no ammo respawning (still 4 hours is long time for casual solo players) and explosives dont do damage. Im just waiting for the next update.

Well the more I move on the boxes seam to sort them selfs out yes I still get the odd empty one but I have started to get more bullets but tbh you still need to sort the beginning out because that’s fare to many empty ammo boxes
