dont know about getting the bow back, but it would be nice to have those three slots on your body as free for a weapon, tool or whatever, other than locked to a bow, tool or weapon. So, to clarify, each slot should/could be able to take a bow, weapon or tool.

On pc, you use the mouse wheel to select either iron sights or optics. the default is iron sights first, roll the mouse wheel and you get the optics

From my experience, the rooster crows when he likes, as DayzDayzfanboy says. I hear them when I am on empty servers and I am nowhere near them. Now the hens, they are quiet until you hassle or go near them. I deliberately steer clear of them for that reason.

thats one thing I havent seen yet . . . barbed wire, ordinary wire yes, barbed no ..

I would quite like the idea . . but yes there are other things on the list with a higher priority

"lol the amount of threads created about people crying that they are being shot on site is funny." not complaining, merely commenting I could have shot five guys, easily, because I saw them and they didnt see me. (no ghillie suit) On pc we have an hour (mostly) of (very dark) night mode

I started writing, but then I realised that what I had written wasnt true so I went through my encounters this year so far this year only four of my encounters have been friendly, seven were KOS - (me being killed . . I had nothing, no weapons, etc) not including two encounters where the other person couldnt have hit a barn door at ten paces and I left . . . and four encounters where I ran, but you could say they tried to KOS. one by wolves three by zombies two by ladder . .. .the antenna tower, and prison island chimney one by car so 22% friendly, 39% KOS, and 39% environment . . . adding the attempteds . .. . 17% friendly, 54% KOS, and 29% environment . . . From my side, I am friendly. I dont always have my mike on, but I do wave and I dont generally have a weapon in my arms. . . so far this year, I havent killed anyone . . . .

I build bases (tents) to store stuff, and am now building some walls to keep the wolves out .. . . ( I found three boxes of nails ...) I thought why not . . I lost one tent with stuff to persistence, but so far so good for the others. Only problem with this base is, I struggle to find it sometimes . . . .

10 crucial features that will bring DayZ back from the dead
aux7 replied to Survivor1431's topic in General Discussion
for me its persistence, I lost my buried bags, tent . . .. . -
on pc, you have to kill your current character (commit suicide, I usually jump off a light house twice. cannot kill yourself with a stone knife) if it isnt what you wanted. I would presume the game architecture is the same for the xbox I get it now and then, bit of a pain when its meant to allow you to choose your character, then you go into game and its something else . .. .

I was in Chernogorsk this weekend, found five skorpions and a mosin. .. . trouble for me is Im usually looking for (want) KAMs or M4s

Day Z standalone has its roots in Dayz mod which was based on Arma2 Sway in computer games isnt really realistic, and Day z isnt the worst. I dont know battlefield. In real life, if you want to hit something you will control your breathing. The weapon does stop moving, you have it hard against your shoulder, the strap wrapped around your arm (weapon dependant), the main issue then to control, is not to snatch the trigger. It seems to me some gamers know the system and some dont. For the youtubers I dont know, maybe they press it just before the shot . . I dont really watch them that much The whole reason I enjoy Day z and Arma is because it is that much closer to real life, the whole bullet drop, breathing etc. Its not perfect hence the ballistics discussions you can see here.
-
you mean for day z or for other games? there is a hold breath feature on Arma 2 In real life, its a part of taking an accurate shot In games, the sway isnt realistic

On my server This weekend, I have walked past six skorpions (picked up one), walked past scores of bk18s(picked up one, dropped it for a mosin -only one seen), lost count of the sg5ks and usg45s I have seen . ... last week (before I died) I had a KAM (of two seen) and an SVD from a Heli crash and saw two skorpions and innumerable bk18s, sg5ks and usg45s. The mags for the svd and kam took a while to find in both cases not so many shotguns . . . .

ok, so there I was, sitting in a car .. . . . feeling pretty good. car all set up. food, water, pistol, svd and akm loaded in my back pack. ready to go touring. Engage 1st gear and try to drive off. car jumps around a little bit, makes two cracking noises and then I get the "you are dead" screen not happy

383 Hours Played and I find my 1st Heli Crash...
aux7 replied to Badlywrapdkebab's topic in General Discussion
found an svd at a uh1 crash site, no magazine or bullets though -
there are no wolves on the island

so far I havent had a problem finding weapons. For the fx 45, sg5k and usg 45 no problems in certain places, assuming I survive (have been kos in two military sites). If anything, mosins seem to be more common for me, but the bullets have been a pain. for the cr61 skorpion, ka m, m4a1, its more a problem of finding the weapon or the magazine. couple of times ive run around for a week or two looking for the magazines, or vice versa. Currently I have a load of M4 bullets and two mags but no sight of a gun. But I did find an akm last week, and got the mag this week . . . the vsd i have only seen once at a helicopter crash site. didnt even see the smoke. I came out of the forest while travelling and there it was, right in front of me. took another two days to find mags and bullets.

Here's a list of issues, these issues are not on the known issues list.
aux7 replied to Jake Blake's question in Troubleshooting
#8 Items that degrade way way too fast can opener sewing kit - would be nice if the sewing kit could repair backpacks too, instead of having to have the leather sewing kit, or a fishhook. axe - trying to build a base, cut down four trees, axe now worn . . . knife clothes, including backpack - couple of zombie attacks/fights and both were badly damaged. #19 disappearing stuff tents & barrels - kind of makes things very difficult building bases #23 telescopic sights - be nice to have special sights for the special rifles, ie the mosin and the vsd, and only fit these rifles. #24 rain - seems to rain an awful lot more than it used to. was online yesterday. seemed to rain every five minutes . . . . had to keep holing up in cover to stay warm every time it rained #25 guns jamming - took nearly five minutes to clear spamming R . . . would have been easier/quicker to strip and rebuild #26 the survival stuff, pills medications etc be nice if they were smaller, same goes for a number of things. pack of bullets 1 slot - can opener 2 apple 1 slot - pear 2 #27 wall and watchtower kit - be nice to be able to break the rope back out of it. so three slots instead of five #28 burlap sacks - Ive seen one since dec 17 2018. is it me? #29 gillie suit/headpiece - do we really have to lose the helmet and backpack? If I had somewhere I could "confidently" store stuff ok. #30 gillie suit colour - yellow/straw? is it possible to make it other colours without shooting it? #31 car headlights - couldnt get them to work -
I have the same problem, I put up a tent on saturday. Fill it with stuff, and go off on a wander. Come back today, and its gone. I contacted the server admin about this, but they refer me to Bohemia "Unfortunately we don't support the community when it comes to the official servers. You would need to reach out to Bohemia directly to get this actioned. "
