Ok, now picked up the 1c magnus inside the red barn next to boo church.
It tells me that I’ve found one of the locations weapons (counter counts up), but the gun indeed isn’t in my backpack.
Today i found a lighthouse with about 5 Magnums laying around… Guess how many i got into my bag… 0… Then i went up to the top of the lighthouse and saw a rifle laying on the ground up there, looted it and got nothing, so its not just Magnums…
I’m considering giving the game a miss for now with these loot bugs, i assumed (wrongly) something this big (game breaking) would have been hot fixed really fast but nothing… so i’m out sorry i love the game but not being able to loot is a big deal for me.
I can fully understand you.
For players who already have everything, it doesn’t matter that much, but for newer players it’s the opposite.
It destroys the experience.
Sadly there aren’t updates or hotfixes that often. I just can guess that it takes so much time to fix these issues… Or better to find the reasons and to find out how to fix them without wrecking anything else.
It’s not like a light switch you forgot to turn off when leaving the house = just go back and press the switch.
I just wonder that it seems that every player is affected slightly different.
Today I tried to reproduce it. I had success (or not, depends on the point of view) with a magnus, but every other weapon I found, either on the ground or in dead machines, I was able to pick up.
Just do me a favour and stay tuned. Follow the news for a hotfix, a workaround or similar.

If that is how you feel, you should take a break. I have been infected by the GZ-virus a long time ago, and I could not stop playing even if I wanted to. I’ll be here until the curtain falls. 
But, it just might be that you are already infected too, and have a hard time to let it go. There are people who are really disliking the direction the game has went, and still they can’t quit. Only the strongest warriors have the courage to leave forever, because this game has something different that transcends bugs. That “Je ne sais quoi”, that keeps us coming back for more.

Im playing it in the previous game version.
At least untill i get the remaining gear i still dont have.
The new one introduced a lot of new bugs, related to loot and a few crashes.
Most updates always break something 
-.-
Does inventory weight change when you pick the gun up? I’m curious if it just vanishes, or if the game thinks it ends up in your inventory except… Not?
I just feel like i’m wasting my time and loot… The weapons on the ground never respawn and are gone… they are currently grey and green drops and its annoying… imagine when its higher level stuff… i’ll never get those drops back…
Its hard to tell, as i seem to get the ammo for them at the same time but not the weapon… i’ll say no i don’t see a weight increase at the time of the loot pickup. but as my stash is full of DLC i cannot take everything off to check… rather not risk throwing it on the ground honestly.
It’s your choice Anthony. I don’t like to see people go who basically like the game very much, but if the game is no more fun to play it might be wiser to let it rest for a while, then to slog on. I respect that choice.

Oh the game is awesome, but the loot makes me feel like i’m going no where, and the reaper bug (i know i’m a long way off) but not being able to loot end stuff makes me less inclined to get there for now.
To become able to loot “end stuff” (experimental weapons) your character must reach level 25.
So it should take some time until you come to this position. Hopefully a fix is released until then.
This “end stuff” the reaper drops, btw, is the same that normal rivals may drop, except for some experimental apparell and the experimental sledgehammer. The reaper just has a higher chance to have some of them in the loot.

So recently I’ve been able to pick up just about any sort of gun except for the magnus. Every time I try to pick it up it completely disappears and I’m never able to get it. I have literally everything for it just not the gun. If ya’ll have any suggestions please let me know.(This is on the Xbox series S)

Was looking through Torsberga fort and Norrmyra Artillery Base for the weapons tried to pick up both the magnums at the places and then they dissappeared from the game world and from my inventory.

I had the same problem but then I found one that wasn’t just a ghost outline and was able to pick it up. Now if only the Building Blocks mission would fix it self. 
Today I found one in a weapon box and I was able to pick it up and had it in my inventory.

Everytime I try to pick up a .44 magnus in GZ, my character will grab it, but it will never show up in my inventory. I’ve checked everywhere that it could end up at, but to no avail.
