Look above, and below now.

Ever think they made them break easily for now to TEST what happens when they break and to make sure they break properly?

AFAIK 'terrain' editing won't be possible, so no digging foxholes and the like. Even in the mod, the stashes we 'dug' were actually an object placed above the terrain, so it'd be more like a bump/zit on the surface.

Holy crap? Someone on here actually used the phrase 'game breaking' correctly? DEAR GOD THE FINAL SEAL IS BROKEN! REPENT FOR THE TIME IS NIGH!

Use Steam.

Wrong subforum, DayZ commander is over a year out of date, use Steam.

I swear I could set my watch/calendar to these posts.

Put on a real ghillie suit and do a couple laps, then go complain to (your chosen Deity here) about the heatstroke you're gonna get. It's not meant to be everyday wear or pretty much all soldiers would be required wear them, not just the guys who sit/lie motionless for hours at a time.

1) The new engine is already here. It's called Enfusion (I think) now. They're changing out modules of the engine as they go/add stuff. 2) Dean did leave to start his own game studio (Ion I think is his new game, made some buzz at E3). At this point I don't think it'll affect development either negatively or positively (I might be wrong on that part, sounds like Dean didn't really plan for it to go beyond just a mod, so maybe someone/company with a bit more ambition might make a difference). 3) Modding will make other maps available. They've said in the past they would like to make at least one more map (and Urban/Western map) sometime after release. I also heard that they're working with the guy who did Nalamlisk to get it 'ported' over for when they do allow modding. 4) Not entirely sure but I think that's somewhat in the direction they want to go with private servers.

I don't know, QTE just seams really cheap outside of a single player/story driven game, and think about how horrible it'd be with lag and desync of online.

Thought we already had the basics (and I do mean basic) of a stamina/weight system put in?

It is what you make it.

They'ed be a bitch and a half to take off of a solid/smooth surface. I dunno if they could be a 'vehicle' persay, but something more along the lines of the bikes in the mod, you find one, you use it till you find something better, and leave it for someone else to use. Don't think we should be able to 'upgrade' or fix them, just sort of be something disposable to carry a lot of loot or heavy loot, IE car parts or bulky stuff. Would think they should reduce the speed of them as well, IE you could only go run speed while 'sprinting' with the cart and walk speed the rest of the time (even slower off road, and of course only being able to sprint for short periods). They should be somewhat abundant (at least in certain areas) and disposable/easily replaced.

Maybe we could add handtrucks and dollies to this as well? Something to carry around barrels or heavy car parts when the time comes.

Ah, didn't make the connection that the GAZ from the mod was the Volga, then again I'm an American with little interest in cars (the majority of them all looks the same to me) and pretty much all my knowledge of Euro cars comes from DayZ and Wikipedia. Speaking of which from that site it looked like there was a pickup truck version of the Niva. I'll be really happy to be tooling around in a Skoda again, dunno why, but I liked that one and the V3S (even looked into buying one and shipping it here, a fantasy that ended very quickly).

Consider the source as well, Wired is more of a general news source rather than an outright game news site, and would be unfamiliar with a lot of the terms used in the industry (even the game news industry often gets things wrong or blow them out of proportion). Alpha, Beta, Release, release, DLC, to paraphrase one of my favorite TV Chefs, these are industry terms and not regulated by your government. And there's also our own willingness to believe or misread things (valve.software.com anyone?). I kid you not, back in the mod days someone I was playing with said that DayZSA was coming out NEXT WEEK but they renamed it to WarZ instead. This was before WarZ was exposed for what it was, though I already looked it up a bit before that and was trying to tell him that it was a different game, he wouldn't believe me, "Nah man it's all legit, I'm gonna preorder it as soon as I'm done playing tonight'. Needless to say a week later I talked to him and his tone was a bit different. Ah well, back on semi topic, any idea what version/year of the GAZ Volga and Lada Niva they're gonna use?

Sounds to me like they're talking about Beta coming out later this year, which is what they were on track for anyway. 'Feature Complete' not Content Complete, meaning they expect to have all the systems in place, and they'll focus more on adding content (weapons, vehicles, items) and fixing bugs. I wouldn't trust anything that comes once or twice removed from the source, because someone can read, "Yes, we're planing on adding the MP40, K98, Luger, as well as mothballed Wehrmacht uniforms to the game..." and some headline somewhere will say 'GAME STUDIO BOHEMIA INTERACTIVE, CREATOR OF TORTURE SIMULATOR DAYZ, OPENLY SUPPORTS NEO-NAZISM!' EDIT Told you.

That's what happens when you trust DayZ DB's maps entirely instead of just using it as a guide and learning for yourself.

Paying 50+ dollars to 'win' an incomplete game.

Don't cheat...ever. No one here will help you, and I highly doubt battle eye will revoke a ban because 'you weren't cheating at this particular game', but it's your time to waste.

YOU gave them your money. They didn't hack your steam account and transfer $30 to theirs. Before I gave them my money there was a page that said "WARNING: THIS GAME IS EARLY ACCESS ALPHA. PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE IT UNLESS YOU WANT TO ACTIVELY SUPPORT DEVELOPMENT OF THE GAME AND ARE PREPARED TO HANDLE WITH SERIOUS ISSUES AND POSSIBLE INTERRUPTIONS OF GAME FUNCTIONING." Mater of fact, it said that TWICE on the same page. I don't know about you but not many game companies say 'don't buy our game, it's not finished.' they say BUY NOW AND GET THE GAMESTOP EXCLUSIVE CHROME AK EDITION WHEN IT COMES OUT IN 12 MONTHS!!! BUY NOW! *EDIT* Also, now you can actually try and get a refund, instead of just saying "I want a refund" and pissing in the wind.

It's bigger on the inside, yes it's a bug, I'd report it if I were you.

My dad works at a VLF (very low frequency) site here in Hawaii. Way back before 9/11 when people could pretty much freely go onto the property me and the family would visit him often. Well one thing we'd always have to worry about was getting shocked or touching bare metal. The entire area was electrically charged just due to the amount of energy needed to power the antennas. He would tell me when he first started working there, he and a few coworkers would take florescent lights outside at night and basically play Jedi with them. If you held one end and 'wiped' your hand over it, the bulb would light up and stay lit up for a while. This could be that 'radiation' you're thinking of, electrical radiation or microwave radiation rather than what we think of when we think Chernobyl or Three Mile Island. If the power goes out (which it has at that site and in Chenarus) the Radiation would not linger for very long since it's not being constantly generated.

A rather random train of thought you have there. 'Are they gonna do this? Actually I don't really care, are they going to do that instead? The people waiting for this should play this instead. Random joke about this'. Yes, they are going to make a PS4 version, don't expect it until after the full release of the PC version.

I've encountered a sever before that was bugged. Fresh spawned, absolutely NO items spawned in (not even 'trash' loot), only thing that was working was zombies, which I had to fist fight across electro and halfway to Mogil. Think I made it halfway to Novy before a zombie knocked me out and ate me. This was a long time ago but it may not have been fixed.
