Update: Level 1.

 I am Level 1 (again).

Going into Customs, ostensibly to kill scavs, do some observation.

Progress: Not Good.

Raid #1:

Loadout: SKS-OP with red-dot sight, PS ammo, meds. Sling but no rig.  


Spawned on Customs side, south, overlooking river. Moved into cover.  All hell broke loose above, the gunfire up in the customs house and storage was epic. After a minute or two, heavy gunfire broke out across the river, but I couldn't catch sight of anyone.  Stayed put until it quieted down.  Then I went quietly and carefully forward. There was another huge gun-battle around dorms. There was a pile of bodies near the bus-station. I was tempted to look for loot, since it was quiet - but my spider senses said "sniper", so I didn't. Bypassed.  Hit a stash near Gas.  Still quiet. Not a soul, and certainly not a scav.  Went all the way around to the military checkpoint, which was empty. Peeked the opening to the liquid storage containment section and there was a scav. He shouted and we traded rifle fire, but I used the cover of the opening well. I shot too many shots, but finally calmed down, put the reticle on his head and pulled the trigger - he shouted and fell over.  I backed up, reloaded, and entered the industrial zone. His body was not there. Did he survive? Did he go into the building? I walked around - nothing.

Time is running out, need to get to the exit - which is at the corner. Walking there, when I hear shouts and start catching shotgun fire. But there is no cover there, who the hell is firing and from where? I ran back the way I came - towards the opening in the fence - when a shotgun blast cut me down. Where the hell was the scav who was firing?   

Game crashed (Merry Christmas), so no other info. Damn - I really like having a rifle I can put a sight on. Hope that OP-SKS comes back. 

Insurance: 11K
Landed 2 Hits, none fatal. ( !! )

Field of Fire of Emplaced Weapons at Lighthouse USEC Base, for BEARS

On the new Lighthouse map, the USEC rogues are very aggressive against BEARS and will sight on you out to 300 meters or more, and will fire on you far quicker than they will on a USEC PMC.  The fixed guns are particularly dangerous as they can kill you with a single hit when you might not even realize you are close to the base. I made a map with some fields of fire noted on it. There are two mounted machine guns on building 1 , two mounted machine guns and a grenade launcher on building 2 , and a single machine gun on building 3 .  Plus there is a mounted machine gun and grenade launcher on the southwest corner of the base (lower right on this map).  I have noted the general field of fire of each of these weapons on the map. Obviously, there is a lot of cover, so just because you are standing in a red zone on this map doesn't necessarily mean you can be seen and hit. BUT, if there is any sort of line of sight (including through trees, bushes, walls and vehicles) and you a...

Prapor Is Unwell

 Got a message from Prapor, he's giving me a "boost" (his word, not mine). And he sent over an AK-74, an AK-101 and a god-damned Kel-Tec RFB assault rifle! This can't be no strings attached, but he didn't ask for any favors. I was sure he was going to ask me to go kill Jaeger or Putin or something. Instead, he says "everybody calls me Prapor, let's get acquainted."  Like he want us to go out to a movie or dancing?  Introducing himself _again_ plus being overly generous - something is definitely wrong with him. Dementia. He probably had a stroke.  He sent over a SKS-OP too. Something I can put a sight on. I'll take that out next.  I'll set the others aside in case he asks for them back or tries to call in a favor I can't return (e.g. dancing).

A Change of Pace - Raids 117 - 119 - Level 20

Killing 10 PMCs on Shoreline for the last part of Punisher 4 is not going well.  I'm five raids in. In four of the raids I encountered no other players, even though I was hanging out in the resort for two of them. In my last raid, I was headshot just after stepping onto the resort grounds.  Awesome. I'm going to try something different. Return to Customs and try running the Pharmacist quest in which I pick up a package from room 114 in the two story dorms building. Raid 117 - Awesome Loadout: Ash-12 with some ten round mags of PS12B, and one twenty round mag of PS12 (for CQB), meds, ears. Extra ammo and key 114 in my secure container. Spawned in at Smugglers. This is one of the three closest spawns to Dorms. I made sure my laser was on and the weapon ranged and headed out. I didn't run to dorms but walked directly there.  The scavs starting bait shotting as I went.  As I approached three story dorms, I dropped in a bush to listen for a second - to listen for other pl...
