ITT: Items that are too Heavy [.63]
Post items you think are too heavy

Plate Carrier - it is impossible to run wearing one
Sewing Kit - Needlessly heavy

Oh yes. When I found one the character actually groaned when I put it on, and breathed deeply when I dropped it back on the ground...

Based on the weight, the DayZ plate carrier seems to be modeled after the US "Modular Tactical Vest", which weighs 33,5 pounds (15,2 kg), rather than the "Soldier Plate Carrier System" which weighs 22 pounds (10 kg) with plates or the "Scalable Plate Carrier" used by the USMC, weighing 25,4 pounds (11,5 kg).

Based on how the in-game model looks I'd guess they based it on the Soldier Plate Carrier but got the weight of the vest confused with the heavier MTV.

That seems a bit overkill tbh, can opener 50g, hatchet 1,5kg, can of sardines 120g, tuna 120-150g.

What's that slider in the bottom left corner of your inventory screen. Some kind of weight indicator? It's always in the middle for me.

Nope..that's the indicator for the upcoming softskills...not much is know about them yet, but if I had to interprete that slider, I would say the more to the left the marker is, the better and faster you are at fine motor skills like sewing and such, the more to the right, better at "hard labor" like cutting down trees (maybe you get more wood, the better you are? Unkown...)

Maybe the Chernarusians really liked sardines?

Anyway, around here tuna comes in small (200g) round cans while sardines generally come in smaller (100-150g) square cans. Both types can usually be opened without an opener, as is the case with mackerel in tomato sauce - the stuff that sustained me during my student years. (Along with cheap hard bread and beer, lots of vitamins and carbs in beer!).

Hard hat, not sure of the weight but it is way too big in the inventory size.
