SlenderMolez 0 Posted February 18, 2020 I agree sounds like desync to me i crafted a new hand drill and fireplece about a hour ago and all worked fine. I would reccomend re-logging or restarting your console , this normally works for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pristine matches at that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vfxtodd 125 Posted February 23, 2020 I just tried hopping in Livonia to see if that made a difference. Still can't light a fire. It ain''t desync. It's just poor game design and coding. Don't need to be a game developer to figure that much out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderpants_AU 80 Posted April 9, 2020 I might be crazy, but this may be a ps4 issue and you may receive better help in the ps4 section of the forum and not the xbox section where you have been posting... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DayzDayzFanboy 1280 Posted April 9, 2020 You're still having the same issue??? This works fine on xbox. Never heard anyone else report this either. Are you close enough to the fire? Is it wet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
