We are currently testing a fix for this issue on PC, so we hope to solve it on Xbox soon as well. :)

Please be a bit more specific what issues you have with the inventory.

For many issues out there there are simple solutions that you can try to resolve some of the reoccurring issues. Some are caused by faulty downloads, some by outdated drivers. Here is a small collection of solutions to some of the recurring issues in DayZ. If your issue is not listed here or measures do not help, feel always free to report to our feedback tracker. Common Solutions BattlEye Error VAC Bans Bad_module_info [Launch Error] "Error Creating Enfusion Engine" Bad Version, server rejected connection Not able to move or do anything My server has been wiped/my base is gone Common Solutions Before trying any other solutions, try to verify your game files via Steam. This is a general check of all DayZ game files that should discover most of the issues caused by a faulty update download, or by manipulated/otherwise corrupt game data. Go to your Steam Library and right-click on DayZ. Go to Properties. Open the Local Files Tab. Click on "Verify Integrity of Game Files" Check the boxes for "User Data" and "Log Files" Make sure to clear all launch parameters. Go to your Steam Library and right-click on DayZ. Go to Properties. In the General Tab, click on "Set Launch Options" Delete all entries and confirm. Reinstall the game. To avoid faulty data, the easiest solution is a clean installation of the game.

My server has been wiped/my base is gone Server crashes can currently cause a persistence wipe. So especially for server owners, try to work with regular persistence backups and if you encounter server crashes, report with your crash dumps to our Feedback Tracker. If you have any proven reproduction steps for persistence wipes, let us know. The team is working on a long-term solution, which unfortunately will take some time.

Yes, certain walls and fences can be penetrated by bullets.

The Offline Mode will no longer be supported from our side, the development focus is on the original online experience. If you want to have a friendlier experience, we can recommend you to either join a Community Server that encourages Player versus Environment gameplay (PVE) or host your own server (the server files have been published), as mentioned by @IMT. The creation of servers and mods that are fulfilling individual preferences is still in its early steps and we are working on documentations/samples to make them more accessible. Bears are currently not a high priority.

Vehicles are supposed to be rare and therefore valuable. There is still some planning in progress, as the release kept us quite busy in December.

The third roof is the top of the tower and constructed from metal sheets instead of planks. :)

The despawn time of dead bodies is currently very low, as long as no other player is close-by.

The issue is known and the team is working to implement the missing unjam action in the Xbox version.

The reload action for the bullet cycle with internal magazines (currently affecting Mosin/Shotgun) is currently missing on Xbox, the team is working to implement it.

The issue is also happening on PC, the team is looking into it to prepare a fix.

Hello Survivors, as our PC servers are currently at their limits, and the Xbox servers show huge numbers of free slots, we will reassign some of the Xbox servers to the PC branch. This means that players with their bases on these servers will not be able to access them any more. We are aware that this is again a huge setback for those of you affected, and we apologise that this decision could not be announced earlier. The switch will happen immediately. Following Xbox servers will be affected: DayZ NL 3663855 DayZ NL 3663894 DayZ NL 3663933 DayZ NL 3663972 DayZ NL 3663870 DayZ NL 3663909 DayZ NL 3663948 DayZ NL 3668115 DayZ NL 3663834 DayZ NL 3663873 DayZ NL 3663912 DayZ NL 3663951 DayZ NL 3664683 DayZ NL 3664698 DayZ NL 3664713 DayZ NL 3664728 DayZ NL 3664686 DayZ NL 3664701 DayZ NL 3664716 DayZ NL 3664731 DayZ NL 3664689 DayZ NL 3664704 DayZ NL 3664719 DayZ NL 3664734 DayZ US 3664137 DayZ US 3664176 DayZ US 3664215 DayZ US 3664254 DayZ US 3664146 DayZ US 3664185 DayZ US 3664224 DayZ US 3664263 DayZ US 3664158 DayZ US 3664197 DayZ US 3664236 DayZ US 3664275 DayZ US 3664284 DayZ US 3664323 DayZ US 3664362 DayZ US 3664401 DayZ US 3664290 DayZ US 3664329 DayZ US 3664368 DayZ US 3664407

Hello Survivors, as we are aware that the issue with server crashes causing persistence wipes is still occurring, we will temporarily lift the Server Hosting Rule regarding restore/reset of persistence files. You can read the complete rules HERE. OLD RULE: Restore/Reset Persistence files Once a day Request has to be processed manually by game server provider (edited) NEW RULE (effect immediately): Restore/Reset Persistence files Unlimited Can be done manually by customer via GSP (game server provider) control panel This means that if you are working with a server provider, you can ask them now to provide options to regularly save and restore your persistence files to prevent major persistence losses during crashes. The team is working on a permanent solution for the issue, but as this will take some time, we will temporarily enable this option, to hopefully ensure a better persistent gameplay experience. See you in Chernarus!

You have probably seen that this is still listed as a known issue, so yes, we are aware of it. And we know that this is a very annoying and frustrating issue. But again, only detailed reports with specific information and logs can help us solve it.

The port 27016 should be the default port for communication with Steam when the steamqueryport parameter is not set. You still need to allow the port in your firewall settings for it to work. Do other steamQueryPort parameters not work for you?
