One "sip" definitely doesn't seem to bring you back up to full drink, which is why it seems constant. That being said I drank a full bottle of water and then filled it up and drank it again and my mother fucking mouth was dry 10 minutes later. DayZ = Proper Hydration Simulator 2013!

What exactly is very very nice frames? I run a GTX 660 with an AMD FX-4100 and it bottoms out around 15 FPS, which I figured was just the lack of optimization... Or maybe the FX bulldozers really are garbage :/

I was geared to the teeth after 30 minutes, playing on a server that had been running for a few hours... I spawned near Balota airfield and was instantly armed with an m4 and 60 rounds. Its just luck man, you'll have it better next time around.

*AHEM* The incessant dry mouth and chronic fatigue will wear off as they are able to increase the number of zombies that spawn throughout to the extent that they become the primary threat. Until then, hunger and thirst are clearly intended to be the primary threat, which both deters banditry (as even food items will get ruined from gunshots) and forces us to continually move around and explore more of the map instead of squatting. Also, some buildings have clearly not had loot spawn put in them yet, so it's hit or miss at the moment with checking the right ones, As the number of items increase and all the buildings get loot spawn locations put in them, this problem will go away. Have we forgotten it's Alpha already?

I found 60 rounds of stanag and an M4 near balota pretty early on... I've shot a few rounds up over survivors running around with their flashlights just to scare 'em, no banditry for me yet though... waiting to get shot at first... P.S. any of the axes are dope for zombie killing... pure dope...

And from what I can tell so far people are pretty terrible at looting, I'm going through places after people and finding magazines and matches and all sorts of important shit. EDIT: Also, what Het said... go places you've never been before, thats what myself and other seem to be doing to their advantage.

Turning Headbob down (or off) in your settings should quell the motion sickness...

Currently over 20k purchases... I just got home from work and started downloading! When did it release?!?

This includes our sphincters... Bring on the Cholera! EDIT: I have a bug where I am only downloading at 1MB/s... this is absolutely unacceptable... someone please advise :D

It seems like going to release after the weekend... And I'm going to be away from my computer from Tuesday until January 2nd... Please Rocket, release on sunday! :D Also, rocket posted on reddit 45 minutes ago which means he got about three hours of sleep... Give the crazy mofo some props for being so hard working.

He clearly realized that he made a mistake when he said that...

Rocket just slipped.... they're hoping to release after this weekend Edit: HOPING. They'll probably find something worth fixing.

Uhhh... apparently they think they have a release candidate... expect an all singing all dancing party soon which may or may not result in rocket pushing the button.

Free look is confirmed

Umm, chris. Please inform yourself before spouting ignorance. Rocket has no idea how the fuck twitch works... its his second fucking stream... and once alpha is released I can't imagine him continuing to do them. Who the hell would subscribe? Just be grateful that he's being far more transparent than a lot of developers. Enjoy the free show.

Doppleganger bug is fixed!! Honestly it looks like a pretty solid alpha after this stream and the last... I think rocket needs to push the button

Buy ARMA2 Combined Operations through steam, run each program once, then download dayz commander and use that utility to download the Dayz mods. Super easy.

Something else I've learned.... Rocket screams like a little girl

Cherno looks amaaazzzing!!!! They definitely still need to get the server side FPS totally stable, but it looks soooo close to being ready to go! CHOOOOOO!

Dean just killed someone! He's a bandit! Rumor has it, it was Klesh!

Still Streaming... Showing off Cherno

Still streaming if anyone is wondering!
