DayzDayzFanboy 1280 Posted December 8, 2018 I recently found a barrel and carried it to where I wanted it and have been storing things in it. I logged off and came back on the next day. The barrel is still there but a couple of items are missing so I decided to move it to hide it somewhere else but it won't let me pick it up again. The only prompt I get is to open or close it. Anyone else having this problem? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lambicus 25 Posted December 8, 2018 You can only carry a barrel if it is empty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkylineScooter 3 Posted December 8, 2018 The barrel has to be empty to pick it back up. I find, going into vicinity and then putting to hands works the easiest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DayzDayzFanboy 1280 Posted December 8, 2018 Well, I thought that too but I did manage to carry a barrel with two headlamps in it. So I guess it depends on the weight? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bent.toe 529 Posted December 9, 2018 Maybe? Don't work with tents though, need to be empty to pack it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nhow7108 159 Posted December 9, 2018 I had 1 mp5 disappear on me. I know for a fact it wasnt stolen because i opened the tent and there it was. then i closed then opened the tent again and it was gone. I have also had items randomly disappear from my inventory while playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DayzDayzFanboy 1280 Posted December 9, 2018 I read somewhere that server hopping causes items to randomly disappear, though I only heard this and couldn't say if it was a thing for certain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bent.toe 529 Posted December 9, 2018 Just saw arrow up and arrow down while looking at a barrel. With d-pad up/down you can switch between pick up barrel/open barrel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With d-pad up/down you can switch between pick up barrel/open barrel. Ok, so this barrel... I've emptied it but it still won't let me pick it up. The lid is off and the only prompt I get is to hit X to put the lid in. When I do this, nothing happens and the lid will not go back on. I get no dpad option to pick it up and I've even tried transferring it to my hands on the inventory screen, but nothing works. At this point I am now assuming this is a bug, but not sure what's caused it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bent.toe 529 Posted December 10, 2018 Had the same today..only option to open/close lid. No arrow or option to do anything else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
