So I have been experimenting different starting kits (with vanilla plus mods, I fear CUP will contaminate loots and simply don't like RHS-complications), and having trouble to find a fun kit one. What are your thoughts?
I have tried:
- Makarov pistol only: they are pretty good, given that they can't shoot far, pocketable and remain useful even to mid-game as a sidearm (if you don't go for FP45 Liberator).
The downside is that a pistol is generally most restrained civilian firearm IRL, so getting plenty of pistols is less likely.
Any SMG/low-tier assault rifle: that is vanilla Antistasi loadout, and gives police-class enemies one fewer reason to exist, not to mention sourcing them IRL is difficult.
Bolt-action rifle/shotgun: they are great as starters (CZ 584 Kozlice shotgun/rifle is good fun), more available to civilian, and versatile.
But the thing is they are dropped once you get hands on police SMGs and rifles, which is pretty much first engagement in first 30min...the more players there are, more demand on better weapons, the later they are dropped, but they just don't last long. I kinda hope my delicate choice of starter weapons get used more and appreciated more LOL
So any experience on choosing a starter kit? Thanks in advance!
