So, if spawns across all modes can get fixed/less clustered that would be a huge win in terms of changes. Farm feels like TDM and if you get a spawn where you are sandwiched it is DIFFICULT to get through the raid.

The loot economy is MOSTLY fine with, imo. Normal lobby should be all of the normal barter items, a better upgrade in higher loot areas though, while each lobby going upwards has the better value loot, as it currently works.

The problem right now it people just rush each other spawns, get the gear of PMCs they killed and just leave as that is the most profitable way because loot is far more undervalued.

That being said, the times on them need to be changed. If you work 9A-5P, the schedule I assume a lot of the player base is on, schedule you miss MOST of the Forbidden zone seeing that it is 10P-2P. Maybe some type of rotation on the times. Maybe every 2 weeks swap the Lockdown Mode and Forbidden Zone times?

Edit: Funny enough, I spawned in as Covert Ops LITERALLY in front of a PMC, I turned around and he was 10 meters away from me. I was in raid for 00:11, only because he wiffed his first shot somehow and I was able to move and react before dying.
