Game chat hasn't worked for me since update. No icon appears when I double click or hold left on dpad. Have tried with several different accounts on 2 different xboxs with different controller's and headsets.

 

Icon also doesn't appear if I set it to voice activated and maximum sensitivity.

No game chat is game breaking for me. Best part of this game is interaction with other players.

Party chat works fine.

 

Also inventory is now horrible to use. Triggers no longer cycle through containers. Moving things between containers is a huge pain. 

For me the Voice Chat dosen't work ingame, when i am in a Xbox Party talking with friends.

I hope they fix it asap kinda sucks when u playing and Talking with Friends, see a Guy ingame and cannot talk to Him.

Most Players shoot instand if u don't reply.

As of 1.18, the biggest issue I and MANY others are experiencing is the inability to access the inventory of certain items, such as barrels, cars, seachests... PLEASE PUT OUT A HOTFIX SOON!!! It's driving us nuts!!!

Is anything being done to address the voip issues please?

 

It was great when we were able to toggle game chat on and off without having to hold down a button on console. 

 

The only way I've found to get voip working now is by clearing the mac adress but this has to be done every single time. It's so frustrating. It worked perfectly before this update

For those having issues with VOIP, what works for me is if i load into a server while not being in a xbox party as soon as you join a party it stops working for me then have to do the same again.

I'm never in a party when I first load. Just so frustrating it was working beautifully before the last update. I watched a live streamer the other day and he had to log out and reset his xbox. It's such a pain when you've qued for ages to get into a busy server

When is the update coming. Can't see it on the ps5. And it asnt updated anything 

[.ish. 1]

All needed fixes. But, please fix console inventory. All of today’s fixes were great, but none of those issues are killing gameplay like the tedious and broken inventory. 

[Noahtastic 1]

Dude. I figured out so quickly how to fix the inventory. The major issues that need to be fixed are swimming under the map and that ability to crawl through base walls rendering bases useless 🙂

[ri_der_045 1]

All servers disappeared after last update on ps4. 😥

[Keith Iscool 0]

When I look at me server browser on PS4- I see now a mouse icon stuck in the upper left corner of the screen, and the only available servers are “mouse and keyboard enabled”. That’s broken and the default. Making the game unplayable. Cmon!!!  And just fixed. Whew, my buddy just got ahold of 2 M79’s. Look out!

Its summer and the kids are getting their boogery fingers on controllers right now.

[SirGaryOfVybor 1]

Another broken update. For some reason only experimental servers are showing in official list and no community servers show at all. Also, inventory is still just as broken.

[Kuzzie. 0]

When will we get the same inventory hub like pc  but for console.

[Boroda Thug 38]

Inventory still broken 

[The Official Calvin 1]

I hope they fixed inventory issues. As well as when I combine ammo it takes me out of the inventory. (console)

110%.... how can ANYONE enjoy this game long-term when I log into bases that have taken weeks to build, completely empty, but my gates are still locked?  Everytime I find a functioning car I can't keep it as they'll teleport in, kill the engine and despawn the car. 

 

It's so....frustrating....even more so the absolute deafening silence from BOHEMIA INTERACTIVE on this issue, on every platform. It's such a simple fix, NO LOGGING OUT WHILE IN WATER. DONE. This is supported by reality as you can't tread water for hours or days.

Yeah please fix inventory system too, not sure how it go so messed up, when scrolling through inventory on console your "inventory camera" was dragged with the DayZ inventory corsair (the white square), now its not and you just stay at the top, forcing you to scroll to the bottom, being very annoying and making inventory much slower for controller players.

QUICK FIX FOR BUGGED VEHICLE INVENTORY: If you walk outside of the cars inventory range, go into your inventory and walk towards it, it fixes it and you can see the items.

VOIP FIX: For console/Xbox, go to network>network settings>Advanced>MAC Address>Clear MAC address>this should fix the issues.

I've had no issues with frame rate personally. 

Regarding the mic issue, do you have a third party controller? If so, it defaults the mic to off every time you load the game. Try going down to mic setting to check it.

so many more things need fixed with the game, swimming under the map, phasing through walls, not even being able for two people to get in the car at once, cars are also extremely laggy.

Console Stable 1.18 Update 3 - Version 1.18.155048 (Released on 14.07.2022)

GAME

FIXED

• Fixed two game crashes
• Equipping the plate carrier or assault vests could cause inventory management issues
• The character was shaking while covering other players' heads with a burlap sacks or gagging them (https://feedback.bistudio.com/T159648)
• Fixed a game error related to inventory containers
• Fixed a server crash when corrupted character logs in (character is removed instead)

KNOWN ISSUES

• The inventory of the smersh vest and attached backpack is falsely displayed as one container, but still separated

[Ryan Cooles 6]

Still don't see any notes about patching glitching under the map. Why is this so hard to implement? Don't allow people to log out while swimming in water. What is wrong with you guys.
