Samocoptor 0 Posted January 26, 2013 But I'm incapable of shooting.The first two servers I've been on (got DayZ today) have had starter kits and on both I've started with a gun, with ammo and everything. Yet when I press the button I have assigned shooting two (left mouse button) I don't shoot. I've tried reloading, un-equipping and re-equipping it, aiming down sights, everything. I've even changed my key binding for it.Why can't I shoot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rage VG 4033 Posted January 26, 2013 Perhaps it's a hardware problem. Do you have problems left clicking anything else?If not, try running ARMA II regularly. See if it still doesn't work. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Testwd3r235 2810 Posted January 26, 2013 Hit F, maybe you have something else selected. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
person915 345 Posted January 26, 2013 It's because you've gone on servers with starter kits. DayZ knows your better than that.Listen to it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jamz 253 Posted January 26, 2013 You can move the gun into your backpack and then back into your secondary slot, that will sort it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gruso (DayZ) 81 Posted January 27, 2013 Drop the gun and pick it back up.Yes, this works for me on such servers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamz 253 Posted January 27, 2013 Not if he doesn't have enough slots. Then it will eat it.True, but it happens when you are a fresh spawn so you should have at least 5 slots. Its basically the same as putiing it on the ground, just use arrow keys to move it across, then straight back.If I have a gun as a fresh spawn I always try this first, it never seems to happen when the server gives me a M9SD though.

DazTroyer 227 Posted January 27, 2013 Either hit F or change to your axe and back, it's happened to me so your not the only one fella. As for a stupid question, that's what the noob forums are for, we all started out here. :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have heard such horrors of servers doing this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamz 253 Posted January 27, 2013 What if its an enfield? I have heard such horrors of servers doing this.I'd drop it and go find a hatchet for the main slot. I'm a bit paranoid about putting items on the ground unless its really necessary but to be honest I'd rather start with nothing anyway, its more fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
