Getting PMC insted of Scav.

So i was about to do a Scav run, and when i was on 100% i got [bad server end] and similar messages a good few times.
Yes i know it resets to PMC so i clicked scav every time since my PMC was a Mule basically while i find scav the most fun while solo.

i clicked scav, factory then hit ready but i ended up as my PMC with no ammo and stacks of stuff.
I feel cheated and rather demoralized to even play more.
I can take playing PMC, picking it and knowing the risks but selecting scav and ending up with PMC losing everything(nothing was even insured) that just feels like i can't trust this client.
 

A game is supposed to be fun but this made me bummed out to the point of not knowing if i even want to play anymore.

Losing gear is part of the game.

Losing it to bugs is annoying sure, but theres nothing you can do about it. EFT is in beta and we are testers.

If that one scenario makes you dont want to play the game anymore, I feel like you shouldve read whats the game about before buying it.

That's basically saying that it's ok if you eat food and get poisoned, since it can happen when you eat anything at a new restaurant, when it only says that "quality may vary". 
Why would you eat there again if you can't trust it? is it ok? Should paying customers get the explanation you shouldn't have come here in the first place if you don't like poison?

i do understand losing gear is a part of it, but losing everything to a bug and then have someone basically say that "it's you own fault for playing the game" 
 

saying that there is nothing to do about it is also wrong, i mean yeah getting a few weeks of grind back is not something that i can do and i do not expect em to do it.
However voicing your displeasure when someone clearly does something wrong against you is always relevant.

just imagine you, start a new game you grind for some weeks to get a few PMC setups to play and then ALL your progress disappears in a second due to something you have no control or say over.
That makes you lose trust in the game, and when you know that it will take weeks of effort to get the gear back it's beyond off putting.

to get some different perspective, If someone hacked your account(w/o stealing the info from you) for example and deleting then everything you shouldn't get mad about it? i mean you are using a PC on the internet and the game is on the internet so you should "expect" it to happen.
the only difference might be the process and maybe the shift in blame but the results are the same.

People have left other games for they where more invested in for even smaller game breaking bugs.
i like the game a lot, but if the effort i put into playing will just magically disappear in a non-intended way, before i can even use it then i think it's a valid complaint.

Don't call it a game mechanic either, agreeing to a PMC or knowing about a Reset is consensual(the former more often than the latter) is a part of the game, bugs that make someone question it they want to play ever again isn't.
