I think the night time is just right, I try to loot at night also, that's quite challenging. With regards to the z sensitivity, in a way I really like that they are like this currently, because in a way players would value the ammo/gear they have looted, second guessing taking the shot on another player in the field etc... Also with the z's like this, some players would resort to rather hunting, growing food etc... And only basically going into town if certain items are required like ammo, nails etc... 😁

I found the sks but not the cr527, only the magazine, still trying to get ammo for these though and running out of 9mm ammo fast as these z's are very "sensitive", I sorted a z out in a house with an axe with doors closed, but then there were hords of z's outside the house, so I have no idea house they All were alerted so then I had to use most of my sg5 rounds to clear the surroundings of the house, now with having all this Mosin ammo, will have to use it as I can't find much ammo for any of the other weopons I find.

Yeah as I mentioned in other posts, I'm currently finding alot of boxed Mosin rounds west side of the map and hardly anything else, played for 1hr and have found just over 7 boxes of Mosin rounds, 11 loose 762.39 and no 9mm or 45 anywhere but I'm sure I will find alot of these on the east side of the map and very little Mosin rounds eventhough the Mosin also spawns all over, just not the ammo

I have all three of those and now deciding on which to keep. The Mosin rounds I found alot of were on the west side of the map in houses and the castle, currently have 150 Mosin rounds, however I can't seem to find alot of 762.39 rounds, picked up about 11 rounds in total, same with the 9mm for the SG5, but I know that I will find alot of 9mm, 762.39 and 45mil rounds on the east side of the map but very very little Mosin rounds, that's just what I have noticed from running across the map looting etc...

Yeah, they don't spawn at every cycle at every mil base but randomly and also that's only if the tents have not been looted prior

I must admit that I have noticed that on the west side of the map I have alot of luck finding Mosin ammo as I spend most of the time on the east side of the map where mosin ammo is rare, don't know of any other players that have a different experience. Also has anyone found alot of the CR527 rifles in the east or west of the map or are these also a rare spawn item? Honestly I would have thought the developers would have made the SKS a civilian spawned rifle considering the KAM/M4 and UMP45 are Mil base spawns only, the scorpion and SG5 are security/police station spawns, would have been great to have the SKS spawn for civilian so that we don't have to all run to the Mil tents etc... to get one

I haven't found much 7.62x39 but alot of 7.62x54 rounds, currently have 15 rounds for my sks, but over 100 rounds for the mosin, now trying to choose as to which one do I keep :)

I found the attachment and added it to my FX45, I press RT to switch on/off (Switching off sounds like switching off a handheld radio)

Yeah, I had also tried this with a Mosin, but it doesn't work so had to leave the rifle on the floor with a full magazine when I switched it for the SKS, this should actually have been fixed as now were throwing rounds away that could actually have been used to trade with or help out another player with rounds.

Haha guessing you have tried this? What happens?

Currently with how many z's are in the towns and cities, esspecially now that they are alot more aggressive, alert and "smarter" than before the patch, its easier to shoot another player on site and take his weapons etc...than to go into town, crouch and hide and be aware of other players in the area. So unless you are in a team, looting a town/city will take quite a while, as even the most geared up players stand a much less of a chance if a unsuppressed shot is fired in a town now after the update, which I like because before the new patch, most geared players could basically run freely through the streets, now its basically an even playing field nomatter what gear you have as now would second guess shooting another random player in town 🙂

Haha I had done that last night, was looting a small town till one z heard my footsteps from the house across the road, so I ran back into the house I just came out of, shot that one that chased me, then the entire town of z's came running, then switched to the 12G and shooting the z's from inside the house, but as always then would have to loot quickly because other plays would hear the shots and currently don't really trust anyone, only had one friendly encounter out of the five players I came across, so from the current experience after the latest patch, hording weapons and ammo is priority right now for most players especially when it comes to the new weapons and attachments etc

Sliding down ladders now working, I also picked up a Pistol flashlight attached it to my FX45, getting some great attachments in this patch release 🙂

My character had this issue earlier, I just waited a bit then restarted the console and was fixed 🙂

On xbox the unjam was Y, could try that and ceck if it cycled all the rounds from the rifle :)

Yeah, came across a butt-stock for an M4, not standard was an upgrade as it had something of a cheek riser on it 🙂

Doesn't seem like it, would be great if we could as ammo for the mosin and M4 are not all that available on the game unless raiding unlooted Mil bases 🙂

Yeah, I noticed that they seem to be alot more "sensitive" to the surroundings, they can see you from much further and hear you from much further also, so best to keep a good distance and/or crouch past behind them. I found that looting in towns/cities now takes double the time as spending most of the time playing "hide and seek" with the z's and then there are also other players to watch out for :)

In a way this is correct, but I don't think this is a valid reason to shoot at other players when spotted, I tend to try and get some communication going, that usually de-escalates the "Oh shit, player/s that might be after my gear". A while ago happened to walk up on another player that was looting a house, he had a KAM on his shoulder and his back was towards the front of the house "all windows" so, when I said hello, he said "Oh shit", turned and then had a BK-133 in his hands but once I had let him know that I was friendly, he was ok, not saying that this is always the case, but most of the time when I let them know in friendly there were no issues 👍

Yeah, its the same with tents and barrels, I had a base but that disappeared, then decided to rather use tents and barrels, same thing, so now I'm trying to find something to actually do on DayZ Xbox other than PvP, so currently just running around the map looting, talking to other players.

The OREL Police Pants shows up in "equipment as a blue camo pattern, in first person view it is the same, but in third person view, its displayed on the character as green camo pattern? Anyone else notice this?

Nice one, I also came across someones stash today, some barrels with random gear in it and one "damaged" M4 with no mag, so I swapped out the M4 with my working KAM with two full mags and a scope, now it gives me something to do (Search for acog, mags and ammo) on the other side of the map and to be honest no point in searching for base building supplies as it's sort of pointless due to the option of server hopping into closed bases.

Well I have just recently come across a dupers stash, identical items in both "storage's" and this includes M4's, currently busy scouting out the place.

I walked into one recently, not much damage as long as you bandage it up

Hey buddy, yeah I remember that, you wanted to keep the shotty of which I was quite surprised actually, used that same M4 of some ghillied players in Electro, then upgraded the M4 for one of those guys SDV, anyway we were talking and exchanging items in the middle of the woods 👍
