Game monitor says it's just smasht and test in the server atm. Gametracker only acknowledges smasht.
-
We got 4 playing according to game tracker and it is only morning for you guys in the good ol' US of A. It's a possibility that tonight could have a 50 person server test. EDIT: make that 5 with hicks having now entered the server. I predicting a new screenshot appearing later on.
-
Testers seem to be filing into the test server with Steakandpotatoes already in. Lets see how this goes! Today might be the 50+ people on the server test! Edit this may have been premature.
-
Still doesn't mean that he said it. FFS that idea was dumped by rocket 11 months ago when they didn't make the release at the end of 2013 and decided to redo everything. ROCKET has said nothing about release dates since then and never will until the alpha is out, At which point it will be "Alpha is out guys" or something like that. To quote the big man "It is done when it is done".
-
Whoa, the traffic on the test server has picked up, it is at 7 players but this is much higher than some previous tests. EDIT: Also a new build!
-
Damn, now i'm gonna have to learn how to clear buildings properly.
-
As far as we know, it hasn't.
-
Test server is live again! Nobody on as yet but it is news!
-
Testing server is dead again. Wonder if they are reloading the optimization aspects.
-
Maybe. or maybe they just wanted to update it a while ago and finally got around to making and changing it.
-
Seems like it would. Though i have gone retail for most of my games and the only time i used steam was to download combat arms and dota2(which i need to try one day) so actually bying a game from steam will be an intresting process.
-
Thanks for letting me know. Never used steam to any extent so this is news.
-
With the numbers we have actually seen play, via gametracker and so on, it makes you wonder how many people they actually have for testing. Also if that 56 in game number is for SA then what server are they playing on?? Cause we haven't found it, and that would mean that they are just polishing it up for release!
-
Wow, 7 hours of gameplay from one guy with no name.
-
I've just started thinking about how i'm going to pay for this game on steam. Looking like im gonna have to fork out an extra $5 to get a prepaid visa card for $20-30 so i can get this on release.
-
That is steam and BIS's problem for the moment. When private hives are available then it becomes something to worry about.
-
You are always looking out for a 50 player test. I'd be lying if i didn't say i wasn't either or if i didn't admit that i think the rest of the forum is also. EDIT: woot 2000th post in this thread!
-
Shovels (full length ones that is, not e tools) have a longer reach. Don't need to get so up in some zed's face with a shovel compared to a hatchet.
-
Hot diggity damn. The test server is back up! 0/156 people at this exact time but lets watch! Edit: and by watch i mean see how long it holds out and if it gets a new PB for people playing.
-
This tweet via Hicks "All melee weapons are still being balanced right now, so it wouldn't matter if I told ya ;)" https://twitter.com/Hicks_206 scroll down a slight bit.
-
The first quote (the video of it running smooth a few weeks later one) would actually mean that the game will be out within the next few weeks, not waiting for a few weeks before release. Though that is if you read between the lines, in actual fact he may have just said "few" because it was the first thing that came to mind.
-
He was, but that last sentence is still pretty nonsensical. It is dead again. Maybe, just maybe they are loading up a fully redone version and it is taking a while to install on the server. EDIT: see my sig for current status of Testing server.
-
I, more than anyone, know what it's like to make mistakes (i.e. release dates). So I appreciate the result here. Including those who like thought it went just that it was wrong enough that it had to be quickly put right, which it was. - rocket2guns via reddit. Does anyone else not understand a thing in that last sentence?
-
:facepalm: you know what i meant. I was talking about the Standalone version of DayZ.
