    Scorpion -> Skorpion & Case closed.

    Just found a yellow police car loaded with different ammo.....none that I actually needed though 

    I found a Skorpion in a police car. I thought it was a pizza delivery car at first... but it just didn't make any sense.

    I wonder if anybody found a mag for the Skorpion ?

    Edit: I found mags for Skorpion and for MP5 on the top of a radio antenna somewhere.

    Tnx op

    Thanks for the info @Bombarding

    Whether the server restarts every 2 or 5 hours, time is not moving forward in the xbox version.

    Just observe the sun and shadows and you will see that they are at the same place for the entire session.

    I have DayZ on PC and on Xbox and I did the comparison. I wish someone would prove I'm wrong, though.

    Imma wait it out pretty pointless now the top 5 servers have groups just camping the beaches. Not good enough to fight people with a weapon. 

    When the sun will set,

    And and the moon will be shy,

    Seize the moment and flee,

    And leave others to die.

    Lol well you didn't really answer my question at all but I shall assume it's just a bug. 

    But thank you and my friend I'm sure you're "real survivor" and all it's just that after my 6 day's of play time on the Xbox version of this game. And the many characters I've had that have been fully looted with pretty much every load out in the game I've been from elektro to tisy looting everything in between multiple times on the same character in lobby with no less than 20 at time I'm pretty familiar with the process and the flow of the game.

    And the issue is the same with the M68 I don't know if you are saying this with only having played the pc version, but on my Xbox one s it's a little bit different sadly.

    You're right, that wasn't a real answer and I should have answered it straight forward since it is the "Troubleshooting" thread. So I apologize.

    The issue you're describing has been discussed here, It is a bug in the M68 scope (red dot), among with few more scope-related bugs mainly missing textures, that have been discussed in the Xbox thread few times.

    I still suggest to search the forum for the issue, if you cant find it, you can report it as bug to BI.

    A real survivor doesn't need a red dot.

    I suggest to remove the battery and use the M68 scope without the red dot. You will be a pro in no-time.

    And this bug was already reported maybe 10 times in the last 3 weeks, searching the forum before posting will probably save your time and lead you to the right answers, which is, in this case - just be patient.

    Can we all agree that if you wear a blue armband you are a peaceful player who will interact and trade with others? No KOS, no griefing, no bondage or torture. If you have a UN helmet even better! Let’s try and get a sense of community going. #sunflowersoftheapocalypse

    First, gather up some peace keepers.

    Then, take over a city on a specific server and make it your base. This means you clean the streets of zombies by UN patrol, whatever is needed to make it safe as long as possible.

    Then expand your patrols to some known spawn locations and help and rescue those who are in trouble.

    If you do all that, only then, the UN can be recognized as a "peace keeper" force in Cherno.

    You don't need to ask for recognition, you do whatever is needed to be recognized.

    If you do that - you'll have even my support, I like the idea.

    If you see a bunch of players wearing army clothes, it doesn't mean anything regards their personality. It only gives away the fact they have been to a military base. Maybe they are hyped to pop you, maybe not. You can wear a dress and travel light and give headshots to whoever says "Hey mate, you friendly?" Boom. And you take his beans.

    The only way to survive for long is to move undercover, observe the players and find out if they have a group and how they behave. You will be amazed by the horrors kids are capable of, and how many nice players with army camo or glaring red/orange/green backpacks and helmets are hiding out there.

    Clothes got nothing to do with it.

    This post is just my way to say thank you BI.

    So, I just realized that rain soaks my clothes and my backpack, and it makes you very heavy because of it.

    I was running with a friend and it started to rain. After maybe 10 min I couldn't jump or sprint anymore.. eventually we figured out that we are soaked wet! We found a house, made a nice fire, and dried our stuff.

    Finally, a game with logic.

    Whoever came up with this idea and decided to implement it, and to all the programmers - you have my respect guys. Thank you.

    Afternoon all.

    I was wondering if i could change a setting to make proximity voices come through my headset rather than my TV. 

    Im a family man and have children, and unfortunately some of the things that come through the TV are inappropriate and shouldn't be heard by an adult, let alone a child. Because you've no idea who is talking either then you can't mute them individually. 

    If the sound came through my headset though then that would be far more acceptable, i can deal with that and not worry about things being overheard.

     

    In game chat is a huge part of day z so i don't want to have to mute everyone. 

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,

    Are you using an XBOX Kinect controller ?

    Those have a different headset connector (not a 3.5 mm jack) with only 1 ear piece and a mic.

    If so - I think maybe they were not meant to output the game's sound at all. I have one of those and can't make it happen.

    The servers are restarting every few hours, but the time is not moving forward at all. You've been playing the same second from day 1.

    If it was moving - the sky light would have changed as the sun moves in its course until sunset.

    Night time is a very unique experience, there is also a moon and it has its lunar cycle which means there are full moon nights and pitch black nights.

    Rain is random.

    They do exist in xbox, and can be found (actually, they find you..) in the north.
    If you kill 3 of them, the rest will flee.

    I got attacked twice. Then I ate the pack leader.. but I also brought my pistol to the party so it was brief, but still, scary.

    Gun reloading is still extremely buggy can't reload a gun when it's empty at all I've had to drop 2 different IJ70s because I empty the clip and the gun won't reload

    - Hold your gun / pistol

    - Navigate to to your spare magazine

    - Click B to combine.

     

    If it doesn't work (bug):

    - Hold your gun / pistol

    - Navigate to your EMPTY magazine inside the weapon

    - Hold Y to throw away

    - Navigate to your spare mag

    - Click B to combine.

    (Don't forget to collect the empty mag)

     

    * Putting the mag inside the weapon with micromanagement will not work in case #2. You will have to try again until its loaded. Maybe it's a lag thing.

    I was standing over a water stream holding a bottle, it was half full. I was going to fill it up, but a new action appeared: "Empty bottle".

    Why can't I empty it everywhere?

    Also, why can't I empty the canteen?

    It's really not a big issue at the moment, but I am trying to get used to drinking only clean water. I noticed that sometimes, after drinking water from a bottle I just found, raises my "disease" indicator. I should be able to empty it right away.

    Hi guys, since the update my game won’t load. It’s just idles on the loading screen, the icon does a few rotations then freezes. My screen gets darker on occasion but nothing else really happens. Please help #heartbroken

    Anyway...

    Try to delete your local saved data and restart the game. Can be found in the xbox manage menu of the game.

    Make a fireplace, don't light it up, pick it up and aim with it at the fireplace. It will put it inside. Add wood if needed. Light the fire.

    Take pot, fill with water, add chicken, mushrooms, or apples. Add salt as needed.

    Put on fire.

    Serve hot.

     

    Dishes: 1-4

    Difficulty level: easy

    Est. Prep time: 3 min if you're a pro, 7 trees if your are new.

    Cooking time: 30 seconds

    The only way to solve this, is by adding more wells to most town and villages, but they should be a different type of a functioning well, and should collect rain water automatically when it rains. After all, soda cans should not exist for long time in an post-apocalyptic world.

    As for food - more animal spawns and the "to-be-implemented" wooden bow. And/or fruits and veggies, whatever it is - it should grow naturally.

    And get a knife.

    That's all you need.

    Was waiting for this post all day long (:

    Thanks for the update, hopefully this will get us closer to the most expected Content Update.

    Cheers!

    Btw - the wipe was expected and will happen again so save you tears...
