Hello!
Would love to see a Quiver ingame. Maybe made from leather and can hold 50 arrows instead of stacking 10. Would this be possible? Ammo-wise you can go alot higher then 50, so it would be nice if you can get something that stack arrows a bit higher then 10.
Thanks for a fun game

I think this has been suggested before but regardless it'd be a great addition. In fact, I can't wait for the day when guns are much harder to craft and we have to use more primitive weapons like bows/hatchets/swords and such.
I've gotten so good with the bow and even though I have like 10 M4s stored in my base I still prefer to just run around with a hatchet/bow. If I wanted to use an M4 I would go play Call of Duty or whatever.
+1 this sounds awesome!
You can already hold more than 10, just not in the same slot. That's pretty understandable, so that you don't spam the fuck out of the arrow.
I'd be happy if the game just drew arrows out of the lowest stack and not the highest stack...

lol, yeah, spamming that 1.5-2s draw time...
+1 Quiver would be a nice addition.

not only is it a good idea - its also quite annoying that arrows are used from whichever stack has the most first instead of the order in which the stack is in the bag - which means if you have 50 arrows you have to shoot 46 of them before you go from 5 stacks to 4 in your inventory
i like the idea. this is how i imagine it working:
the quiver functions similarly to a gun in that the 'use' function loads the quiver with as many arrows as possible (up to 20 for balance reasons i'd say). you can also 'unload' the arrows from the quiver like you can with a gun.
the arrows from the quiver can't be drawn from unless the quiver is on the player's hotbar somewhere; once it is, the player will automatically pull arrows from the quiver rather than from his inventory. this will also give a small increase in speed to the rate at which the player draws the next arrow to nock.

I like the quiver idea but i already find myself running low on hotkey spaces without needing to use two of them to use a bow
The problem isn't that we only get to put 10 arrows in a slot, but that we can put 250 bullets in a slot.

Yeah... realistically it should be limited to 50 or 100 (i.e., a standard box worth) for 9mm, box of 50 for 556, 25 for shottie.. Or maybe 50 for all gun ammo to keep it less confusing? 250 is a bit much though.
If you try to apply that realism to stacks of wood, however... :p Yeah then it all goes out the window. Answer to that would be, after an update and servers wiped, divide all wood costs by 5 (so you only need say 6 for a wood door, 16 for a foundation etc) and make the yields a lot less as well (10-15 in a pile instead of 80, 1 per 4-5 hits on a tree instead of 1 per hit) - then you could limit piles in inventory to 50 to keep things a bit more sane.
+1 to the guy above me !
I prefer arrows to not be stackable but can stack in a quiver of 6 at least.

I dont understand what you are replying to. I didnt mention anything about not beeing able to hold more then 10 arrows in total? My problem (if you want to call it a problem) is that it only stacks up to 10 and not higher so i have to use more inventory space. See the difference? And like another one already mentioned; How can one spam arrows? Do you have some external program used to auto fire your arrows in a higher speed? Thats cheating dude.
i use bows alot, mainly because the ammo is cheaper to makee, i usually just carry a bow, some arrows, and a p250 with 8 extra rounds (only if i'm carrying anything worth protecting), but use the bow to kill wolves, zombies etc
might be better to just make the ammo more scarce for guns, would encourage people to use bows more, and conserve ammunition
edit: THOUGH, i dont see why you would need 50 arrows
frankly, 10 or 15 is enough to last me until i need supplies again from base
