I was bleeding, so i pulled out some rags to fix it, but it would not allow me to hold R2, it kept coming up with the icon but then it would quickly dissapear, (i was standing still at the time), then i start jogging to a nearby car, pressed square to open the boot, and it worked. I kept trying to use the bandages but it didnt work, i bled out.
Also once i accidentally put my rifle in another players wooden box and then it was stuck in there, i was able to take a map, but not take my gun back.
