ryanh 36 Posted February 23, 2016 Sure your not carrying a MP5 or a UMP that ends up going on your back making you drop the svd? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
odin_lowe 3686 Posted February 24, 2016 I've had a few SVDs, and still have one with one character, and never had this happen to me. But I don't double carry, and when I do, I'm extra careful, so overall I never had that "bug" where your gun disappears. (It's just on the ground if you retrace your steps back. Desync/rubberbanding.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irish. 4886 Posted February 24, 2016 Do not double carry primary weapons. SVD on back, some type of smg in your bag. Nothing else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We've had a few dudes have this issue before. Relogging has fixed it once, and I think the other dude I just kinda kept playing and eventually it reappeared. If you accidentally dropped it, especially in a building, switch to the newui and scan the floor. The New UI is currently the only UI you can recover stuff that has fallen into the floors or collect car tents from rooftops. If it has fallen on the open ground can there can be a delay or graphic glitch, in which you won't see it for a minute or so if at all. In that case relogging normally helps. Hope this helps ^.^ On 2/24/2016 at 0:33 PM, lrishjake said: Do not double carry primary weapons. SVD on back, some type of smg in your bag. Nothing else. Sadly this isn't purely a double carry issue. I love packing an SMG in my bag, if I'm carrying a primary that can reach out and touch someone. Not being a big fan of moving into a city or tent city to collect and taking a huge tactical hit or dealing with double carry issues like dropping weapons or not being able to climb ladders/drive vehicles. Sawed off shotguns have recently become a favorite though. Four slots of horizontal space and plenty of power to stop someone you walk into in close quarters? Yes please. I'll take some speed loaders too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
