I just disagree that a small chance for them to be found, with an even smaller chance that its by a lockpicking char and with measures to take against people camping it, makes cars useless. Seeing as the price is high at the moment, it seems quite a few people agree with that sentiment.

it kinda does if they wait around for you to return and then whack you, steal your key and make off with your car..... since there is a loading delay on client side but not server side, you could be dead before you even enter the map your car was in
oh and btw.....since movement has been slowed so much.... why not make fuel injectors easier to find?

Solar:
Well, this is where thinking about what you're doing comes in.

Don't return to your car unless a significant period of time has elapsed
Come back with a group so you can defend your car
Park out of the common routes path to decrease the stumbled upon chance

So drive your car 10 of the 30 miles you have to go.  Then drive 15 miles out of the way so you can [safely] park your car then walk to where you were headed.  Wait a LARGE amount of time to help ensure whomever may have stumbled onto your car might have gotten bored.  Then walk all the way back praying you waited long enough and you don't get killed in some random encounter by any number of crap.  Get back to your car, drive and go home. 

(isn't there already a post about this game being a simulator of waiting?)

I really thought the whole point of the changes to cars was to make them more available.  I know you guys are probably frustrated that we're not just jumping up and taking your changes like a dog with a bone.  But you asked for our help testing this game, and currently the car system still needs work.

Solar:
Has the price begun to fall yet? When cars are worth their minimum amount we could see noone uses them. A sinlge player isn't really in the position to say the global take up of cars.

eBay:
u are wrong Solar, if there was a fixed ammount of caps then alright but thats not the case here, TC gives tons of caps which can be used to buy mercs or cars, if u buy cars and make their price higher u will make urself and ur faction even more powerfull than other factions, also u nerfed all builds u made players twice weaker than they were before the wipe but militia stayed as it was, 20 guys + gauss pistols 300 hp etc ...
