Patrick_ Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 (edited) First of all, thanks Hinterland for updating Survival. Love your game, you're awesome! I want to echo another poster about lost arrows (with deer, didn't try wolves yet). When I miss or the arrow breaks, I seem to recover it (3/3), but when it hits (lvl 5 - critical hit, instant death) in previous builds (1.47) the arrow would be lodged in the carcass and I would always be able to recover (recovered ~29/30), now I generally fail to recover (recovered ~1/6). Even when the arrow was under in 1.47, I would either recover the arrow by carefully inspecting the carcass crouched or recover when the carcass despawns. Neither works anymore. Even if the carcass falls on the other side (falls left) with the arrow supposedly lodged on the right side of the neck, well 5/6 times the arrow is gone now. Couldn't find it anywhere. So I'll stop hunting until next update. Loosing arrows is way too precious. At day 210. Regards Pat Edit: I've attached images that may give a hint. In trying to repro for the bug report, I ended up with a floating arrow. Player.log Edited May 16, 2019 by Patrick_ removed extra images 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Split this into an entirely new thread and moved to the Technical Issues forum. Please post things here or contact us at thelongdark.com/support rather than putting bug reports in long-running discussion threads where they're likely to be missed.

Lithgow_Panther Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Adding to this, arrows that miss the target are often just disappearing after the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shade_grey Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I'm experiencing this same issue. Arrows that hit ice often disappear. Arrows that bounce off of wolves often disappear. Arrows that break as a wolf dies to a crit often disappear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I learn slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serenity Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I've had the floating arrow thing a couple of times now. Better than disappearing though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpUpAway95 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I'm still losing arrows as well... it's so frequent for me - almost as if a Critical Hit automatically means the arrow will disappear completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteloud Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I've lost two or three on ice, but I put it down to them bouncing and sliding away on flat slippery ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManicManiac Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 (edited) I believe I read somewhere that when they do ricochet off of a horizontal surface, they can skip up to something like 15 meters from where you saw them impact... that's a pretty considerable distance. Is it possible that some of those lost arrows may have just skipped farther than your search radius? Edited May 20, 2019 by ManicManiac 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible that some of those lost arrows may have just skipped farther than your search radius? In my case, no it's not possible. I looked very thoroughly as far as any arrow could have possibly skipped after killing. Most of my test shots were kills on rabbits in the snowy bowl-shaped terrain near the Trappers Cabin and the Unnamed Pond. An arrow simply can't skip very far in that sort of bowl. My best guess says they are disappearing under the snow. I've also seen a couple of Youtubers lose arrows in the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been deliberately testing this since I saw it happen on Youtube. I'm not sure what Hinterlands will or can do about it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkthought Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 I've been having the same issue, as well as if they fall on the arrow and it clips into the ground, I lose it. I've lost 2 arrows today on wolves that did this, and I've lost 2 on bears as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
