Seriously fed up of guns deciding not to work. I’m shooting people many times and they’re not dying. Have the devs even acknowledged this as a problem?
One day you can hit someone once, the next it takes full clips.
i shot a man yesterday twice with a izh18 rifle and 3 times with a skorpian and he beat me to death with a crowbar.
At the end of my tether now... and I’m one of the players with patience.

Which for obvious reasons doesn't get posted seperately here on the xbox section because they want as little people as possible knowing there dumping On there community. Go read it and the reactions, sad and gold at the same time
Can you link me? I can’t find anything x thanks

It’s been raining for a solid week? Change up the weather lads. It’s hurting my ears , oh yeah. And it seems to be lagging very badly also. What’s going on

Bumped into this curious fella. Kicks around berenzin, singing to anyone that’ll listen. Very friendly guy but we got split up when he died if malnourishment.
Anyone bumped into em?

Agreed. It really added something. I hope they start to roll it out longer and longer.

Yes indeed. It was fleeting. Maybe 30 minutes and the server reset but it was good.

So I’m experiencing night time on the Xbox server? Was this planned?

Mostly military camps. There’s one just north of solnichny. If you follow the road up, through the first town, past the police station there’s a dirt road to the left of you. Follow that road. I’ve found packs there

crouch. start to bandage. let go of right trigger and pull left trigger then spin to the right
Oh god. I didn’t mind dying to this as I thought it was a glitch. Now I know it’s an exploit that’s annoying.
who would purposely do this?!?

Hello, are badly damaged guns less effective than pristine ones?

5 minutes ago, ImpulZ said:As you mentioned, the unconsciousness appears not that often, as bullets are intended to kill people, especially if you shoot at vital body parts. Restraint will be part of the next major content update. We hope this will bring more variety to player interactions. :)
Awesome. Cheers mate x
-
So one of the reasons I bought this game is so you could have a gun battle, they become unconscious, you can tie them up and speak to them, let them go. Do whatever you wanted basically.
Does this still happen? Bullets just seem to mostly kill people? Or is this something that’s going to be implemented further down the line ?
I loathe shooting on sight too. The moment we get a restraint feature the better

53 minutes ago, Butchie's said:It's an exploit, there hit box is still "in character" I ran into a half a dozen already. Not sure if someone reported it I know I didn't. Seems like everyone on these forums argue because people reported bugs weeks ago and things still are not fixed. Best way to avoid these guys who are doing it, is keep your eyes peeled for that torso moving around.
Ah, so you think it’s intentional?
Interesting. I was under the assumption it was just a bug
-
Anyone else having this problem? I’m coming across people and instead of them being a full character, they’re basically a little ball of death? Just a spherical glitchy mess?

I’ve just checked, anyone actually asking for help in a topic you haven’t replied to. You just mostly show up in a topic to be annoying. Can I give you a piece of advice, when you feel that urge. Just ignore it.
take care

8 hours ago, TheCreeper (DayZ) said:This is a public forum, I am free to post where ever I like. I love that you try to make me seem like some sort of shut in because you can not argue my points, you try to insult me, If you want to go that route. I own my own house, jeep, work massive amounts of overtime, do as I please with my money. I have seen more and done more in the first 21 years of my life than you ever will, I'm almost 40 now. You cry because you blew 30 Good Boy Points when you could have got tendies instead of this game, go back to /r9k/ with the rest of your kind.
Love you too, buddy =)
First off, you didn't even report it as a bug, you posted it in a way to try to flex your e-peen and try to act as if you could damage the player base because the game was not proceeding to your liking. Second, you couldn't be bothered to even click on " report a bug " or maybe your mind is just that simple. Third, Pilgrim has done more for this community than you ever will.
It’s ironic you call this a public forum and you’re free to post whatever, but your first post was telling me to post useful things or don’t post at all.
It’s not a good sign when you have to brag about your achievements on the internet. It really doesn’t surprise me you were flipping burgers a few years back.
Youre trying to defend the indefensible, the game has features many of which don’t work, and you can rattle the ‘it’s only in preview’ Bell all day long, at the end of the end day this game is 6 years old and is still struggling with basic things. You may have another 6 years to wait. I do not.
Take care of yourself pc player. I might go the pc forum and antagonise people there.
Id love to know what you did in the first 21 years of your life, you’re one of the guys that actually left America once? Congratulations mr culture vulture

[ < one shot kill > bet that got you mad , hehe - somebody's gun was working for sure ]
p.s. I'm a DayZ Player, that ok by you?
Just helping out you newcomers as best I can. If you want trade insults you'll have to find a mirror.
Yes you understand CORRECTLY; there are certain people on this forum that use this as "some kind of social hang out."
Hmmm. Okay not really sure what use you are on an Xbox forum but I won’t get in the way of your social time.
Thank you for antagonising me when I’m trying to report a bug.
You’re a real asset to this community

1 minute ago, pilgrim* said:one hit? - so where is the <Guns Don't Work> in that ? .. please don't jump on me for asking .. thanks. I'm just passing through seeing a one hit kill with a strange headline..
seems like some Xboxers are keen to start their own threads but NOT keen to read other player's threads.. am I right? The result is a hundred threads with just one or two posts in each, plus ONLY a few threads with real discussion and info exchange going on - and THOSE are swamped by groan-groan go-nowhere same-same me-me threads and never get read by 90% of Xboxers who just want to START their own THREAD EVERY DAY.. then let it drop, or use it to exchange some insults.
But seriously, don't ever READ any other Xbox threads or you might FIND the answer BEFORE you post.. Then all you can post is <thanx> at the bottom of the thread, and that really ain't Macho.
ONE SHOT KILL eh ? - nice. you got a video of that?
MY beef is it rained in DayZ Exp. ALL weekend but I aint going to START a THREAD about it.
(or maybe I might... )
I see the thread has been made multiple times. Yet there hasn’t been an official response from the devs. I’m hoping to drive it home to them, keep it front line and center, I mean, it is a survival game after all, how are you supposed to survive if the guns don’t work?
Not really sure what there is to discuss, a vital part of the game doesn’t work and requires attention. I understand there are certain people on this forum that use this as some kind of social hang out. But I’m here to report bugs so there is a community left in the near future.
If you do decide to start a thread, I’d recommend if it goes in the PC forum. From the sounds of it, it doesn’t sound like you’re a console player.

6 minutes ago, chente said:Hello, does anyone know how to change the shooting mode? because I have tried everything and nothing works.
If you aim down sights in third person mode and spam the right d pad. It’ll change. May take a minute. But it works

1 hour ago, TheCreeper (DayZ) said:However, the console community begged for SA on their systems, and it was warned well ahead of time that there would be issues, and now that it's not be resolved in a manner that you deem timely, you threaten action. I'm not the one living in a delusional state where they think the have any say or or power in anything. I have done my service to this community a thousand fold, I just rarely have time for fools such as yourself, so feel honored that I made the time. When you've raged quit and demanded your money back, I will still be here. Now as previously stated, you can make useful posts, helping with the development of this game, or you can stay this course of ignorance to it's final conclusion. The choice is yours.
Oh, it’s you. There’s one of you on every forum. More talk than actual play. Always has a point and always delivered acerbically. If you’re looking to not report bugs. I suggest you go outside. It’ll be good for you, believe me. Don’t be afraid of the big shiny thing in the sky. It won’t hurt you.
I am honoured that you’ve taken the time to respond to my grievance. It’s ironic since you’re don’t actually have a console, and yet you’re posting here.
I’ll complain all I damn want; I spent 30 gbp on this game. I don’t mind the bugs, I mind the inaction and lack of communication from the developers, it’s very amateur and like pubg, and now pubg no longer has a fan base.
Why don’t you scoot off the pc forum and annoy someone else.

18 hours ago, King Arawn said:If any one of you has had the pleasure of watching the spaghetti western, Sergio Leone classic then stick with me here... and if you haven't, I implore you to keep reading.. as I have a concept; An idea which I would love to express to the DayZ community at large so that we can all add or subtract from the concept. Or y'know... rip it to pieces.
Briefly, within the movie "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" a group of ill-mannered, hardened cowboys are forced to align for a short amount of time and travel throughout a lawless, wild west in quest of a shared goal - "...Fortune and glory, kid". Within the movie, one of the outlaws has a map to buried treasure and must follow clues and travel great distances within an unforgiving land to go and claim it. Of course, others won't let him claim this so easily. (Forgive me, movie details are largely simplified within context of discussion)
Imagine, rather like the implementation of clue maps within Runescape's MMORPG experience, DayZ has a randomly generated clue map, this map can be found/attained by any player within your current server and cannot be transferred, it is the only item within the server that has no generated copy; this map would give the player various illustrated hints which would lead them to... well, BURIED. FREAKING. TREASURE. This clue map is interactive and certainly destructible. You can burn or eat the map, combine it with paper and copy the map or, of course, keep it intact. This addition will encourage greater communication within the game and lead to an enormous and varied display of interaction between players or clans. Imagine discovering the map and having to take the risk of working together with a stranger in order to find the hidden fortune... Imagine eating, burning or hiding the map somewhere, and using your memorised account of the clues as a bargaining tool against the more aggressive breed of player! I've been infatuated with the idea of a spaghetti western-esque game experience within DayZ, where players are encouraged to work together in a brand new way. Imagine you have ventured far into this Eastern European wasteland, double-crossed, murdered and lied your way to the indicated location... you dig up a chest filled to the brim with military loot and rare items, accessories. You have succeeded. You have won. You have the glory.
The best part about DayZ, for me, are the experiences shared throughout an interacting community and the stories we share amongst your friends or YouTube, Twitch etc. I have a few silly ideas like this one that I will no doubt share in the future on this forum, so I apologise in advance. However, I hope you would agree that I can think of no greater tale of adventure and endurance quite like the individual or shared quest for fortune and glory! I implore you to build upon and critique this idea... so that the game within its current infancy can grow into something unique and brilliant.
Cheers for enduring the cringe,
Arawn
That would be pretty damn cool.

13 hours ago, Bombarding said:You got the gun shooting blanks issue that is a known issue. You must have reloaded incorrectly or using the method to glitch you out, probably by using Y.
If you reload the official way, by ejecting the mag into inventory then combining the gun with a new mag you wont face these issues.
Please post steps to reproduce your result so the team can better understand how to mitigate your issues
No, it wasn’t ghosted bullets as I saw blood spatter.
unless ghosted bullets do make blood spatter? I’m unsure. I’ll try and make a video next time

5 hours ago, TheCreeper (DayZ) said:Oh no guys, he threatening to quit, we better do something. Dude, go ahead and leave, no one will notice, people have been making that threat since mod. Making threats will not speed up the devs at all. Make yourself useful or don't post.
Lol. I also see this post a lot.
Have you seen pubgs player base on Xbox one recently? It’s probably a quarter of what it was at launch and that had a more promising start than dayz. I’m only echoing the thoughts of the people who cannot be bothered to even sign up to this forum to complain. They’ll just leave. I’m doing this game a service as I enjoy it. Your attitude is doing it a disservice as your content with mediocrity. Maybe you’ll enjoy playing with no one?
seems though. How bout making yourself useful and reporting bugs instead of using this a social platform.
