Fantomblu 1 Posted June 17, 2012 We were unable to place tents in a forested area either. It was flat all around, so not sure what we were doing wrong. We ended up going back to the ol, placing tents in a open field. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeYuno (DayZ) 51 Posted June 17, 2012 I messed up with the title. It was supposed to say, "despite patch notes". Fixed it, sorry for the error I'm not a native speaker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

timmo 0 Posted June 17, 2012 I have also tried the new update today and tents still are fucking ridiculous to place, kinda lame really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanrosemont 26 Posted June 17, 2012 I can't place them anywhere. not flat fields, in barns, nowhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonesyx@gmail.com 19 Posted June 17, 2012 FYI, in order to place tents, you need to be moving. Open gear, start moving forward slowly, hit "Pitch tent". That has worked in clearings in the past so I'd try it in a clearing before moving to woods to see if it works for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scurrin 0 Posted June 17, 2012 I was able to get two tents placed int he woods. I had my inventory open and was moving slowly trying to hit the right spots.Tents are still picky though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
merto31@gmail.com 0 Posted June 17, 2012 when i finally start placing the tent it disappears from the inventory, the character does the mimic of placing the tent you can hear the sound and everything, but then the tent reappears inside the gear and no tent was place what is going on???

ApteryxAustralis 5 Posted June 17, 2012 Tent duping also still works as well, probably related to how tents are deployed (or rather... not deployed at this moment in time). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zak757 146 Posted June 17, 2012 How to place a tent:1. Find an opening, like you have there2. Open the inventory and right click the tent3. Shuffle around slowly within a small area and keep clocking4. Usually after 20 seconds or so, the tent will be placed5. Immediately close the inventory the moment the animation starts6. You have a tent...7. ...sometimes with another 4 tents glitched inside it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
