lnfighter 20 Posted June 15, 2013 Now it's just like the old way where each arrow takes up an inventory slot. The quiver is pretty much useless. Please change it back to the previous patch where quivers acted as ammo clips. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoWeMeetAgain 100 Posted June 15, 2013 I agree! Maybe up the reload time if you REALLY want, but this way is just too much of a hassle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lnfighter 20 Posted June 16, 2013 argg. I love the xbow but now its barely useable as you have to leave 3-6 slots open just for the arrows. honestly makes no sense why they changed it. quiver was perfect last patch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drayson 158 Posted June 16, 2013 I agree with this. Anything that makes the xbow more viable is a good thing. Anything that makes it harder to use is a bad thing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rn_max 202 Posted June 16, 2013 Up quiver size to 10 arrowsGet rid of the need to remove arrows from the quiverAllow more than one quiver in the inventoryThe crossbow already has a limited effective range much lower than guns, awful sights and slow reload. That should be sufficient nerfing without any more meddling, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WBK 176 Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) Yeah I agree. This is one where they need to go for authentic over realistic. Xbows are damn near useless as is, but that quiver function nearly saved it last patch. Change it back, you still have to reload after every shot, which essentially implies that you're reaching into the quiver for the next bow. Also, does anyone know what model they use for the xbow, or is it generic? Whichever, surely they could improve the sights on it - this is still the best method of aiming it (align sights at right angles). The range is filthy as well, needs to be at least 50m.

Powell (DayZ) 734 Posted June 16, 2013 having it take up 2 spaces is still an amazing improvement over the ungodly amount it took up before Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WBK 176 Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) True, but that doesn't hide the fact that the only people who use it are masochists. Edited June 16, 2013 by WBK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EndEffeKt 87 Posted June 17, 2013 Although my crossbow is a pain in the ass sometimes I love it :) Some improvement in performance is welcome though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alan.dougherty@ntlworld.com 24 Posted June 18, 2013 This.. this really needs fixed.A quiver would be slung across the back or hip, and one automaticly removed when you reload. Now, we empty a quiver, that is in a back back, into the backpack, and pull one at a time from there? Really?The point of quivers was to balance the backpack space use of bolts, against single shot, long reload times. All thrown out of the window it seems.
