StoutAle 69 Posted March 12, 2014 In over 420 hrs. of DayZ, this is my nemesis. Not once, not a SINGLE time have I ever encountered one of these darn things! First things I look for instead are bayonets and my trusty fire axe.Bayonets seem to get ruined fairly easy when opening cans, but no worries, even in that state they are doing a fabulous job :-) I have to wonder if you look very well at all. I played several hours yesterday and my friend got killed while we were in a barracks and in the few hours we played we ran across three of them. It's a tiny, often dark item (unless it's only worn or pristine) I bet a lot of people pass right by them and don't realize it. 420 hours? You have passed many, many of them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LastNewtStandin 0 Posted March 12, 2014 It might have just been a weird day for loot spawns but i kept finding can openers at the Air Control Tower's of NWAF and Bolota.Good luck in your search. The TAB/Vacinity is deffinately the best option :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Demonica 311 Posted March 13, 2014 Well, to my defense, after I figured out that the damned can opener isn't the Alpha and Omega, once I found an Axe I was good to go, but since I never had found a can opener I didn't know their size. So I might have overlooked a lot of them by simply not knowing any better. A screwdriver, since it has some yellow in the handle, is somewhat more easy to detect. So yes, there is a good chance that I have overseen quite a few in my many searches, simply due to the fact that I already had something to open cans with and with that in the back of my mind, looking hard became way less essential. And no, I do not hang out in the forest very much. I feel if I stick around too long, I become a fairy and kill you all with bloodlust... uhm... I mean pixiedust... PIXIEDUST, ME TELLS YA!!!!! :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
