Bugs: Some stuff is disappearing from containers after relog.

Bugs: If you put your weapon away in the hot wheel and go into inventory immediately and try to go down it will get stuck at the top. 

 I don't know if it is intentional but every time I zoom in with LB and immediately press it again I will zoom out. This also happens with other actions.

I do have a personal issue with inventory taking a second unfilled row whenever 5 items are inside a jacket/pants ect. It doesn't make it harder to get to stuff below or above it but it makes it harder to see.

And a suggestion finally :). I miss being able to change my left and right views without having to aim my weapon. Maybe if you held down RB with the hot wheel open and pressed LB to just change the left and right view leaning or not we would not have to aim our weapons to change it. Thank you so much

I hope with the latest option to test experimental updates on xbox some people will comment obout the current state on console.

Item desync or desync in general still as bad as with 1.07? Still looting issues or players shoot with their bare hands with no gun sound at all (aka the silent weapon bug)? Any performance improvements at all?

And btw, its quite sad that we can't test experimental builds on PS4. I think that would be a great option to test the builds on the console landscape.
