Curious if anyone else has come across this issue.

I quick save, A lot. because this game is an unpredictable nightmare of bugs, I get physically stuck in places fairly often trying to climb places looking for hidden easter eggs or loot.

In rooms that have landmines, if I have a buggy issue and need to reload it, then reenter the area. All the landmines are missing... Most likely they fell through the ground or something stupid.

Now here is another issue I have with the same thing. I go through an area and I find a 10mm pistol on a table, its pretty well modded up I take it. a minute later I need to reload it cause i'm stuck under some stairs, when I reload it. that pistol is now utterly plain with no mods on it. This happens over and over and over again, making it feel like every time you reload to try and bypass a bug you get punished for it by the random generator.

I mean if you don't like mines its an easy way to clear them, but I have light stepper so they don't bother me, I disarm and reuse them or sell them, so that's just caps out the window their...

I've also noticed that if you go through an area and loot lockers ect, then reload it, those lockers remain empty, so again punished for reloading your game. Correct me if i'm wrong, but after an exhausting amount of time testing this it is the only conclusion I can come up with, for some reason a looted container remains looted in the generator even when reloading an area from a recent save file.

I've noticed that issue with mines too. But since I never pass up a lootable firearm, I've not seen the modded down version after a reload.

But I can tell you that when I completely exited the game and then started it up again, the mines were back - just not after an in-game reload. It's definitely a bug, but one can work around it if one is willing to spend the time exiting the game. I don't do it anywhere near the frequency you do, and if I did, I would probably not want to exit the bloody game all the time just to pick up some better loot.
