Official servers and the bug been going on for over a month for everyone play with - and most people on the forum too it seems. Play a bit and you will run into it. 😕

I can try at least. 🙂 Sometimes when I am looting stuff (usually if its in some clothing, tent or whatever and not just by itself on the ground - though that happens to) I am having problems picking them up. And if I am able to pick them up I can't use them - I would not be able to put or take ammo out of a mag that is that state and I would not be able to bandage with rags in it or shoot with a gun. If I then leave the server and rejoin then the items are not on my character anymore, but instead they are where I picked them up and has apparently never been moved. It happens to everyone I play with. It wasn't as big a problem before the update as leaving the server and re-joining only took 30 seconds, but now it can literally take half an hour if you are unlucky - and I haven't found another way around the problem then re-joining the server.

Im very happy with it so far, and I can live with not being able to hold X to drop items from my hands. Frame-rates in close-proximity fights are A LOT better, I was in a fight with 5 people shooting at each other in a Police Department earlier and had no drops! The only thing that is annoying me quite a lot is the inventory-bug where you have to leave and re-join to make it work properly again - times with the long queues its a bitch...

I could live with the inventory system bug and that you have to leave and re-join the server to make it work properly again if it wasn't because of the totally full servers where re-joining can mean waiting for 15 minutes if the server is full and there is 20 people in front of you... And the rest of the team has to stand around scratching their asscracks in the meantime. Pleeease, fix it - and dont take a prolonged vacation to celebrate 1.04 before it's done. 🙂

Not really, I understood that it was about the NVG's and some sort of suggestion about key-mappings but not what the actual point of it was - otherwise I would not have written it, I dont troll people because English isn't their first language as it ain't mine either.

I did not understand that at all, maybe try with some spacing and clear it up a bit, otherwise it will be hard. 🙂

They just posted this on twitter: Im sure looking forward to it! 🙂

They dont work yet as you could read in the specific thread about it that is already made. 🙂

Did you have water in the radiator and oil in the tank? The car starts to smoke and take damage if any of them gets low.

Im got sick, and I have not been drinking from any well or eaten raw meat. I did eat a plum (the one I started with) and run around in the rain quite a lot, so im guessing one of those two did it. Found tetracycline and after taking two (letting the first one work before taking the other) I was good again. Just got sick again though (took one more which fixed it) and I don't know why, maybe some of my stuff is infected.

I would be mad as fuck if I had paid for a server, waited through several delays and then this. I really hope BI is gonna extend everyones server-time as people are paying for something they are not getting right now.

Because it loads us in one at a time. Its usually real fast when the server ain't full, so it should not be a problem. I was in a queue of 32 yesterday and was in in a couple of minutes. 🙂

Official servers are fine, my character from yesterday is alive and in the same spot.

@ImpulZ

Why not? It adresses the problem, makes sure that people are aware that the devs are aware of it too and working on it and makes sure that there is no need for 5 new threads asking about the problem. 🙂 And it was probably not the devs intention to release the patch with non-working NVGs - but ask yourself what you would prefer; An update this Wednesday where we get all of the stuff and the new functions and mechanics but where the NVGs does not work yet (but you can still look for them so you have them for when they fix it, hopefully pretty soon with a hot fix) or to wait one week or maybe even whole month or more for them to release the exact same update but with working NVGs? I know which one I prefer! 🙂

Damn, that sucks. I remember reading something from them (pretty recently) about owners being able to see what had happened on their server, change how long the day and nights should be and some really basic shit like that (I dont think it mentioned anything about being able to change the loot-balance or anything like that at all). Ill link it if I can find it again.

If duping is fixed and they are an extremely rare spawn (like a helicopter-item) then I think they are very good for the game. If it turns into a dupers paradise again with max-geared guys on the coast with NVG's (and people wont be leaving for the night as much anymore because of the new function to combat server-hopping) and tons of frag-grenades then it willl be worse then before and they (and the grenades) needs to be removed for now or severely nerfed.

I think his mom refused to sing him his lullaby yesterday and said he he could do his own diaper this morning as he needs to grow up... 😉

I've had no problem getting into the servers tonight even though almost all of them said high. The highest queue I got was when I was number 32, but I was still loading in in about 5-6 minutes and the other times I was just a minute or two. And as @ThePugman just said then the number of people that are on will die down in a couple of days when the initial rush to try the new stuff has worn out. And if it gets real extreme all all the servers suddenly are full instead of medium-high (there was always 3-4 mediums when I was looking, I was only checking EU though) then I am pretty sure that BI will open up some of those "persistence off"-servers they have used for it in the past and has said that they are ready to do if there suddenly is too many people on.

The characters should be persistent on your private server. I dont know what went wrong, maybe there was a problem and they had to wipe it or start it over or maybe your character got locked out of the database after you joined again. And what do you mean with the camera mode? And what regarding it was supposed to be added later? If you are playing on a 3P-server then you can switch between 3P and 1P by double-tapping the right stick, and if you are playing on a 1P-server then you are stuck in 1P for obvious reasons. 🙂

Its a bit bugged for now, but it is possible. Stand over the zombie so you can see it in the inventory, choose the bag (or whatever you want to take off it) and hold a, then transfer it to your hands with RB. That should do it. 🙂

Because they are working on it - and they made us aware that they are aware of it by adding a note about it in the patch-notes to lessen confusion - but I guess that is not an option in here lol. Everybody just chillax, enjoy all the new functions and gear and have fun with them until the NVG's can be turned on - its not like its a game-breaking bug or anything just remotely near to that. 🙂

As long as the way to make god-tents have been fixed then its a solid start, but im not surprised that the original method is still there (but just made a tiny bit harder as they got to get their character back to the spot again after jumping servers). My guess is that they have to work together with Microsoft to get this particular issue fixed as the "join game"-option is an integrated part of the Xbox system - if its possible ro fix at all that is.

Its bug that has been there for a while now. It seems like certain items can get bugged, and then you tend to see them in your inventory (after picking them up) even though they are actually still where you took them from and cant be taken. You have to leave and rejoin the server when it happens, then you will be able to see it in its correct position again - and sometimes pick it up. Its a mess and I had really hoped this particular bug had been fixed with the update as it can get you killed over and over in a tight situation where you need to grab some stuff off a killed opponent or whatever.

Exactly. Open the inventory, chose the item (backpack or whatever), hold a and press and transfer it to your hands. I also hope they fix the bug where your inventory gets bugged and you cant pick certain stuff up or be sure about whether you actually picked it up or not even if you can see it in your backpack and then you have to leave and rejoin the server to fix it and see it you actually got it.
