rangerbarlow@gmail.com 22 Posted January 27, 2014 I can't seem to find a Burlap sack, wanting to make a 20 slot backpack and now that I want one, can't seem to find one lol. I've looked in about 15 different super markets and barns, assumed they were used to hold seeds so that would be the most likely place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mirth 23 Posted January 27, 2014 You used to be able to find them in each storage shed but now even those are empty and the sacks are difficult to find, so muchmaking an improvised backpack :/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IkaikaKekai 1957 Posted January 27, 2014 More likely to find them in 'industrial' spawns, sheds, garages, warehouses, ect. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blacklabel79 949 Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) Seems to me that if you really want to to find that ONE Thing...you will never find it. Clear your mind from wanting one and soon you will stumble across a nice burlap sack ! Edited January 27, 2014 by {Core}BlackLabel 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dayzintel 39 Posted January 27, 2014 Seems to me that if you really want to to find that ONE Thing...you will never find it. Clear your mind from wanting one and soon you will stumble across a nice burlap sack ! ^This, all the damned time. Remember, the default improvised backpack is only 12 slots - to increase the size to 20 you need to add wooden sticks which are equally difficult to find right now.

Molochius 2 Posted January 27, 2014 you can make bags from these? I picked one up yesterday and put it on my head as it was the only option avalible, nothing happened even when I did that other then the sack dissappeared, how would I go about turning it into a bag if i found another one then? noob moment haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blacklabel79 949 Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) You Need a Burlap sack + rope to make a improvised messanger back. As stated above..add sticks and you can increase the size. Edited January 27, 2014 by {Core}BlackLabel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Camisado2 83 Posted January 27, 2014 I found a burlap sack in the construction site in Berezino. And sticks in one of the barns next to said site. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadassPreacher 47 Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) I've found burlap sacks in industrial areas, barns and sometimes random houses. Sticks can be found in those two-section storage buildings pretty reliably. But knowing my luck, I haven't found any rope in two days... too bad they removed the garage/shed spawns.

rangerbarlow@gmail.com 22 Posted January 28, 2014 I find rope in the super markets all the time. I like it, it lays flat to my back, its not in the way, its not a bright color and it holds everything I want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathlove 2286 Posted January 28, 2014 I can't seem to find a Burlap sack, wanting to make a 20 slot backpack and now that I want one, can't seem to find one lol. I've looked in about 15 different super markets and barns, assumed they were used to hold seeds so that would be the most likely place.They can be found on the coast ALLOT in town areas you just gotta keep an eye out for them. I tested making the first backpack than found some sticks to make the upgrade. Its almost as good as the mountain backpacks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted January 28, 2014 I've seen several pics and videos of players running around wearing burlap sacks on their heads interacting quite normally, making it clear that they can see with it on. Have they introduced an option to cut holes in it, or is it bugged? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VincentNZ 5 Posted January 28, 2014 The burlap sack itself is bugged, you can still see through it, I doubt it even shows up on your head. As for the improvised backpack, we had a guy looking a whole day for a backpack, and I had one burlap sack in my backpack for days, because I wanted to make one of these, it took me the whole day to find a rope and some sticks, granted we did not loot a lot of residential buildings, but if they want it as an option they drastically need to increase the spawns, since right now, every backpack type is far more common, than any of these ingredients. Plus as a fresh spawn, you can not even get all the crafting items into your inventory, unless you find the rope and the sack first. Considering that space is really scarce in the first encounters and loot tours and the fact that you need a lot of rags and food, it does not help the situation either. This is likely to be fixed though, especially since the garage and shed loots seemed to have disappeared completely. As for the looks, it is really flat, beige and rather good camo. While the other backpacks stick out a bit due to the sheer size on your back, the improvised is really great value if you want to conceal yourself, plus the 20 slots give you a decent amount of space.
