frankly, one tthing that my friend and I have noticed is that people usually go from safe zone to kai-mart to the bridge, maybe around the west side, but rarely over in the east side, because it is harder to navigate, so he'll make a different circuit, and he has never bought anything from the safe zone. He has every weapon, and none of them have less than a thousand rounds. Granted, he has one slight advantage due to his use of the graphics, and he is quite practiced with a mouse, unlike most of us, but I think more that he's willing to take risks.
Still, Jeremy, I'm curious to know if the graphical map matches the audio map in distance available? Also, you can see inside buildings, through walls, and such.
