Ovation

Also when Rocket essentially stated that zombie AI would be looked into after foundation release, Matt stated they are looking into it now, and improvements will be "in the very near future" They either put it higher in the priority list, or are making fantastic progress

Essentially there working on a few interesting topic's "zombie AI" currently stated completion/improvements on zombie skins and animations, also looking into other said AI improvments what else there working on depends on department Art is looking at polishing and revamping building decals/skins to improve immersion Rocket is enjoying being banned from SS13, I am sure doing some work also Matt is probably busy responding to waves of closed beta requests..."

in a way. if i am forced to play in 1st, then it would be a hella lot scarier Though, Could be tedious with limited senses in the game think of it like this 3rd person you are still using 100% visuals to understand your surrounding but its more inpar with a realistic amount of sensory's in my opinion

^ huh, aren't we all?

I'll be happily watching your attempts to break things it's like a bunch a pre-schoolers rampaging around a room of toys

^ Exactly

should be Industry changing history making game of the year

congratulations Enjoy it buddyfigures crossed its a stable experience! xo

Thank you mZLY for trying to clear this up for people People the closed alpha is only testing the system stability not features "Like FPS/LAG with 200 players online", "Any server crashing because of this" and so on... it is not about finding bugs with little things, This means if rocket posts something like "Today I load up DayZ Standalone. FPS is stable... world looks good... zombies chasing me indoors... #lifeIsGood" This is a VERY good sign the build is stable, so stable they intend to "STRESS" test is just in-case there's problems with stability with larger numbers if not then SA will be public in no time, next month easy

IQ test before the game starts up anyone?

I do wonder how this will be handled. you could not possibly tell everyone "Hey guys first wave is going out! better get your sorry ass over to steam!" it would cause mayhem bet it will be just totally random nek minnit we got dayz on steam for 50k people.

Aawh K, would you imagine some type of date/time a streaming would start? or will it be "lucky your online there's a streamer!"

Sup mate!, it's your long lost buddy from down south!

So with the stream what if you miss them live? can you still watch them?

Well guys im sure closed testers would tell us right away.

I think the snow ball effect is a good idea Start by timezone open to Nz and so on ;D

Where?!? WHEN??? HOW?? WHY?? WHO??? WHAT??oh right just a cock tease

Your English is fine, I agree 100% After all the things i have read from rocket, this is more then what we could have ever expected, Actually never thought possibal very well done to the team <3

Weapon balancing will be very easy, guys relax the fact people can't pop a DMR out of there asses with loads of ammo means that you will never have a real problem with them overused. They can also change the rarity of item spawns, The idea some weapons are OP is a good thing in dayZ because you will feel rewarded by finding them, but also ammo will be rare balancing the use of said item

Mann i cannot sleep until i see some streams! *ahem* streamed footage

Sniper hills, top of buildings.. around my base.....like a minefield

That all depends on the stability and bug reporting of are fine moderators/streamers/randoms.if things are working out as expected im sure not long after.. but as of right now all you could say is "when its ready"

The closed beta

Guys this is a very good signthey are looking at testing the SA build with a smaller range of people to check stability, This means they believe "if it's successful" public testing can commence. so fingers crossed this week we see a stable game play experience

Reddit post from rocket on clothing system Boots are part of the clothing system. currently the followwing clothing systems exist for standalone: Headwear (e.g. motorcycle helmet) Vision / Face Torso (jacket, hoodie etc..) Vest (anti-stab etc...) Trousers (e.g. cargo pants) Footwear (e.g. boots, trainers, sneakers) I believe footwear, like in "the road", will be one of the most important items in the game.
