Played a long time ago, considering returning but had a few questions.

Hey there.

I remember playing this game and loving it at its core but it had quite a few problems that really killed it for me.

Wanted to ask before I reinstall if these things are still how the game functions. Been out of the loop for awhile.

1. Does grinding for "reputation" allow you to just outright purchase better equipment? Making it so those who grind just get kevlar suits that are practically bomb squad suits in terms of impenetrability and fully automatic silenced weapons wasting you from 2km away, while you are stuck with a barely functional shotgun no matter how much money you acquire because it's all that will be sold to you. I found the quests tedious and terribly designed, and if I'm going to have to be doing them for reputation again I think I might just pass. I would prefer just money barriers.

2. Is armor still absolutely absurd? I remember high level armor on some players allowing them to tank multiple shotgun shells at short range. Making it so even outplaying/flanking geared/high level players was even unfeasible since their high level gear practically just gave them arena shooter levels of damage resistance so they'd just react and auto-spray you.

These were honestly my only 2 real issues.

Thanks.

1- You can buy everything you want from Flea Market if you have money.

Ragman sells/barters all the armor types.

2-There are different tiers of Bullets and different tiers of Armors. They tweak it, nerf it, buff it. Accept this as a fact if you reinstall.

if you shoot a high tier geared guy with a low tier ammo, they will tank bullets alot but ofc you can buy the best ammo from flea market.

Awesome.

As long as I can invest into acquiring these things with enough money I'm okay with it. My major gripe was grind literally walling you off from loot with no other work around. I'd go on real sneaky low profile runs, avoid combat very carefully, scavenge and pick people off on occasion. Play carefully to get all this money from loot then just... none of the traders would sell anything beyond an incomplete AK-74.

Preferred this method of money making over "Kill x amount of npcs, acquire this many of a certain gun" quests that were mind numbing. Unfortunately didn't give me any rep when i did it that way.

So yeah.

Was the flea market a newer addition?

The flea market came with the 0.11 patch end of december. You can sell or trade your stuff there. You can gain market reputation by successful selling to sell more items at once.
