An Organized Collectable Hunt

Discussion

Hello everyone, I want to set up a large post of where to find all containers. what is inside said container, All collectable boxes and what is inside em along with screenshots of those boxes (if i already collected it, i cant see it anymore but containers remain on the map so i can grab screenies for those on my own). Heres is my current list of locations ive found throught the game, sadly i got into that mindset like a quarter of the way when i discoverd most items.

However those who havnt collected these itmes can give me a chance to document what is inside. Here are a few pointers that should help along wth extra notes that arnt displayed on the maps themselves.

Tips&Notes:

-If you are checking a containers location but its in a dark area where you cannot see yourself. bring beacon flags. they mark exactly where you placed it that way you know FOR SURE where you found the container. be sure to delete the beacon after wards.

-use the appropriate container stamps for containers and star stamp for collectables.

  • in Afghan map 1 where ruins 2 is(the medical platform) youll see ive labled (blue) 17-19, that is because their are more than 1 container in that building however marking said containers is not possible as youll end up erasing a marker. We can sort out the details later but what i want from that location is a screenshot of the box, whats in it and short description of where it is if it isnt obvious. well label numbers afterwards. their is one more building in game that also has the same scenario and id expect the same process to be done there too.

  • in afghan map 2 collectable (green) 4 is actually in the middle of the shallow lake, i accidently placed it there because at the time when i broke that box, i was chased and couldnt see where exactly i was, also the area was dark too and didnt have time to place a beacon to properly mark. so a proper location of green 4 would be very appreciated.

-Code talkers mansion has a few containers on it, that is why you see a number but no container stamp (forgot to put it but its easy to remember the location). that particular one is on the roof so refer to that number for the roof container. and the other container stamp next to it is the one outside in the back. If you find others inside the manion, let us know.

Ground Rules and Procedures

When posting on this thread please follow the appropriate lableing for more consistancy.

-Refer to to the numbers by their Map, color, then number. Example Afghan Blue 2 or Afg (use Africa or Afr for that map) B 2 followed by a list of items (again no screenshots of the ones listed as i can easily grab those myself.)

however if its a new container then mark it with the container stamp, and zoom out enough to where we see an imprtant landmark (ill find it and grab a screenie, just need a location). Along with what was inside it.

Like say if a certain transporter is near it, that way we can search near there and find it instead of zooming all the way out and trying to decifer where it is exactly. You wanna be as zoomed in as possible but show enough of the map so we can pin point it much faster.

  • But if you already grabbed what was inside a box and are just sharing the location that wasnt listed in my map, its fine. someone else who hasnt grabbed it will document what is inside it via the reply threads.

-If your reporting the items found in a container that is in a building with multible containers then describe and screen shot those containers so we can seperate em from the rest.

-Collectables will follow the same procedure but WILL require a screenshot. Again if you know exactly where youve found one, mark it on the map (properly) and someone who hasnt found it can screenshot its exact location and item details.

I think thats about it If i have anything more to add ill edit this thread. I want to ensure that future players know where to get certain blueprints like the mounted machine gun because BP's like those are VERY powerful for base defense's. I believe that particular BP is near transport 10, the ones listed.

Well be documenteing and adding more to the map and hopefully when we finish ill make a revision of my map with every container location.

Btw did you know you can only have 80 stamps on your maps combined? i was so pissed that i couldnt mark more so i had to delete some that were usless SMH.

Goodluck to all of you and thank you for helping in this large scale scavanger hunt. the future player base salutes you! o7

EDIT:

Completly forgot if your searching an area while your in a "container has washed up" side op be sure you find the actual container. if you open a container and it completes the side op, that isnt the container were lookig for. so look out for that. They also seem to spawn right in the middle of the search area too and always outside if its at a building.
