Stash rooms feedback

I find the current implementation underwhelming and more or less pointless in the current state of the game. I’ll go over what’s currently causing this and what could be done to have stash rooms be more exciting to interact with.

Firstly, the phone system used to unlock the stash rooms is somewhat on the boring side but it gets the job done, mostly.

It is often the case that a map will generate with a stash room that requires 4-5 phones and at the same time will have less than 4-5 drop from enemies, rendering the stash room unattainable. This only serves to make players randomly miss out on potential resources at no fault of their own. It should be noted that it happens on starting missions so there’s no case to be made that a player should save phones to avoid this.

I’d heavily suggest making minimum thresholds for phone drops and room unlock requirements be the same. E.g. If the most expensive stash present is 4 phones then the very minimum of phone drops should be no less than 4.

The stashes themselves on the other hand are underwhelming in their contents.

Every stash has a guaranteed Revive Kit, undermining the one that spawns in medical stashes which in itself doesn’t make medical stashes pointless but it heavily undervalues them for no reason.

Gun stashes are the biggest let down in my opinion as their contents range from laughably unrelated to completely pointless.

Starter missions often spawn with no guns inside, defeating their purpose completely. On the off chance that a gun stash contains… guns, they have no attachments. No attachments isn’t a deal-breaker but it often means that contents of gun stashes is less formidable than random weapon drops from enemies.

I’d suggest making it so that there’s at least one gun present and any additional equipment is a bonus. I’d also like for the guns to come with random attachments to make them a bit more combat-viable. A greater content variety would also be welcome as the current gun stash offerings are very limited.
