darklynx 16 Posted December 20, 2013 Now I remember a while ago I learnt that you can actually open a tin can using just the concrete ground. Whats the chances of this being added? Oh and I found a video that shows how to do it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AnarchyBrownies 1383 Posted December 20, 2013 Haha I find the tin can hurdle a strange one. It's nice that they've already expanded what objects you can use to open them because I just can't picture myself moments from dying of starvation staring at a tin can thinking, "If only I had a can opener." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tegla (DayZ) 112 Posted December 20, 2013 Right now I have 6 cans and no way to open them :( Find an axe or a knife. They work as well as of last patch.Axes are really common up north, check the small sheds next to houses Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darklynx 16 Posted December 20, 2013 ah I have a fire axe but it didnt do anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WarAndRuin 19 Posted December 20, 2013 Haha, this would take too much difficulty out of the game i think although it is real and would great realism! On this note though i think it would be a good idea if you could position a can on the floor then use a sharp object you loose no food, from having to stand up and loosing food. Thus would be a longer process but more beneficial. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liu.hy89@gmail.com 2 Posted December 20, 2013 I'm not sure if I was dreaming, but did Rocket say that knives and bayonets can also open tin cans now? I think there are a multitude of items in the game that "should" be able to open a can, but the game just doesn't allow it. It would be nice if anything decently sharp can open a can, maybe just add some sort of damage to that item after using it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tegla (DayZ) 112 Posted December 20, 2013 ah I have a fire axe but it didnt do anything. How come? Try dragging the axe to the can, you should get an option to open the can 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sixfeetgiantbunnyrabbit 40 Posted December 21, 2013 Screwdriver works too for opening tin cans. Spilled 25% of the content though. Good mechanic, me thinks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pfft, you just need some really thin conducting shit (Like 0.2 copper wire) and make a circuit. It might burn your fingers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
