Looking forward to getting on experimental again and really seeing if these vehicles physics are fixed yet , that's truly all I wish for for dayz during Christmas ... Also are we using our old experimental characters or our new stable characters?

So , if it's Interpreted that way , we MAY have surprises in the hotfix ? That'd be alright but I just want the new renderer and all of the new mechanics that come with it :( !

Ich, I wonder what this possible .60 could include... I was truly hoping we'd see inklings of the new renderer :(

I would fill up those experimental servers if thej were a fix to this damn vehicle madness ! Not even trucks (good ol' v3s) is immune to the bad physics of the others , it can't do curbs !

Stun baton is my go to weapon as well , all you need to do is scour sheds looking for batteries , They are tough but worth it especially if you're also looking for car parts !

Anyone know where there's reliable off-road tire spawns ? It's so hard to find any no matter where I go : in land , coast , west coast , northern villages I can't find any ... Is the server im on off-road wheel challenged ?

You should give up on this server , it's not pogo it's the state of the sedans , the cars wont reset until they are destroyed and me and my cousins figured out if the sedan even TOUCHES something (a sign , a tree , a rock , a building , a curb) it freaks out , loses all physics and starts either sliding uncontrollably or will just do donuts or swerve when you try and drive it (even with 4 pristine wheels). So my advise : server hop (omagash he said server hop !!!) until you find a pogorevka with sedan spawns UNTOUCHED , this is sometimes hard but when you learn the 2 natural sedan spawns in pogo you can server hop until you find the ones that haven't been bumped into objects yet (as I said above , those ones you tried getting out had already bumped into something most likely, whether it was you or someone else , those sedans are bugged now until they explode). Hope this helps , we found over 6 sedans like this (with broken and glitched physics) and we actually figured out it only happens when you bump the sedan into objects . So as soon as you bump It and it starts acting crazy , ditch it and grab all the parts you can and move on . I love this patch , it really makes me feel like we are in an apocalypse trying to get outta dodge ... But the vehicles are somewhat unbearable atm hah !

Is riddlers TS the musty gaming TS? I see a mix of you , Tatanko , cold , bio , and others on the second dayz channel , me and my cousins are always filling the first ! Woot Woot teamspeak ! Can't wait to get into game today and fix up the camp and find another car !

Well me and my cousins had a good time tonight, one of the fuckers fell asleep guarding the bus and it ended in shenanigans (someone murdered the sleeping guard on duty and left the bus unrobbed and intact lol) . we still havent heard from him, we will probably hear him screaming tomorrow about him forgetting to log out before going into a fucking deep sleep .. But in other news i have renewed faith in the power of the vehicles , they still need work (especially that sedan, as soon as it touches a structure it loses its physics and wobbles around the road even after getting properly taken off of the hang up , regardless of wheel condition too as ours were all pristine after we repaired them).. But i like how the powers a bit better on the buses compared to the experimental branch, they could hardly get up a hill in EXP branch ... now they are something we should all try and hassle with because it is just fun regardless, although the bus could stilll use a little more ... Bus oomph! We finally found camp at the end of the night (we'd been searching for a good camp site all night, and found it finally in the woods, but before that happened we tried fixing many sedans, successfully but also unsuccessfully , because our driver , after we got them running, kept nudging them into houses because it spawned so close to them lol!) Some vehicle nature pics :

Anyone know how to use tire repair kits? ive tried puttting them in hand and using on tires on the ground, tried the drag and drop method but nothing ... Any help? damaged tires are making the car spin!

A tweet on eugen Hartons Twitter suggest there's something going on at least with some servers (just a guess though eugen doesn't say this himself, just responds to a worried server goer): https://mobile.twitter.com/eugenharton/status/675280328634839040

So you would rather have them rush the base building mechanic into an almost finished engine instead of simply waiting like they have been to apply it to the new renderer / engine ? Think people , think , this is what developers did , you don't need to try and out think them because they have gone through the right and proper steps , this is EXACTLY how they should have handled the implementation of features ... Sure they could have slowed down on weapons or clothes but with the amount of variation we have now Id gladly have that any day than base building here one week sooner (as it literally wouldn't be pushed off any longer by anything that the art team works on like clothes and weapon design). People seem to think the reason for the delay in the roadmap was because "so many useless items added omagash!" But it wasnt that , it was simply the complex task of removing the old engine and infusing the new engine in, which still has some months to go but not many. Too long don't read : we really just have to stop Doubting the decisions made and start enjoying the tide for God sakes , and if you're one of those pvp only types who are nostalgic for the mod then well you better prepare yourself to quit this game soon because soon enough it won't be for those types of players . We've seen the best way to work a great game into something even greater , but it takes lots of time and testing , this is what all other zombie games should have done and maybe they would be half as great as dayz sa (admit it, even though some other games are great for little dick around sessions , they will never be a long term zombie survival game for those that truly want that genre , those other rushed zombie gsmes will only serve as a pvp shoot em up quick fix , many people like to pretend that's what dayz is too , but it's slowly becoming something else , something better , and all the naysayers including crappy streamers that can't find bullets are hating every second of it thinking dayz Is failing because they csnt get their pew pew fix as fast as they could in previous builds).

Ehh try not to give any care to the naysayers Jonathan , these guys are so freaking butthurt that their favorite game dayz has taken so long so they will say anything to get people's panties up in bunches . These guys are just truly frustrated people with no real sense of potebtial or where it lies ... If you don't like this "staged ai" (not really staged , free float cameras used all the time , and players will be added in masses when they start publicly testing the animals , THATS when the optimization comes , not before you fucking goof ball ) then go have fun playing h1z1 or one of those crappy top down zombie survival games , where the Wolves get stuck in trees and doors , and the Bears are literally the dumbest fucking ai I've ever seen ... Ya all you naysayers can't say much now that you've seen how much more qualitative these predators are compared to your crap games that you swore up and down were better simply because they threw in a ton of half baked content at the earliest stages of their alpha? Welcome to this thing called dignity and talent , the dayz devs have it , and I wanna say almost every single developer of zombie games out there don't (except for 7DTD and Project ZOmboid, but then again look at those graphics , could you play those games for years on end ? I couldn't ...) What I want to say really , to not put it nicely anymore , is go fuck yourselves naysayers , you and you're friends are gonna be crying when this game comes to full fruition because all the while this game was being made all they could do was bitch bitch bitch wah wah wah game is taking too long devs don't have priorites straight - the reality is though , these are the ONLY devs I would trust doing an open alpha , and especially of this grand scope . I just can't wait to see what bullshit comments people will make the game is fully finished and just blows people's minds away : they will probably still complain of how long it took to come out and disown the game for that sole reason . So sorry naysayers , but this fan boy don't care about your whining anymore cuz we're getting close to the beta and I'm here to say for the first time in my life : FUUUUCCCKKKKK YOUUUUU!! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=32AeDLzHmTw

I have a quad core and my fps sometimes frops to 1-4 and it becomes a slid show for sometimes half a minute ... I might be experiencing the "network bubble" issue where when this lag happens it means someone else is close and our bubbles have crossed (kinky), but I'm not sure . Experimental is always finnicky , I would put in a bug tracker ticket again for dual core just in case it isn't fixed but I think stable .59 when released will have no issue with the dual core fix .

I don't think stacks is a good idea , it makes it too easy ... The most you should find is two tires sitting together , that way you still have to work for the other two . I agree with everyone a little bit , but what espa said is true : we don't want to have guaranteed spawns (like the m4 used to be in fire houses and military barracks) , it becomes too easy to predict where they are . In real life That's a non-issue , but in a video game trying to stay as balanced as possible it seems too easy to have specific spawns , even when they spawn dynamically because then ppl would server hop garages for tires like they do dynamic heli crashes (which further minimizes the areas in which people do server hop , so instead of server hopping after searching a whole town , they would just find the nearest cluster of gas stations and bus depots and quickly find a stack).My suggestion is just a slight spin off of your own : increase the tire drop rate for garages , gas stations, and bus depots greatly (like military guns/ammo to barracks , you need to search them more instead of civilian house to get the ammo you need) reduce [slightly] the drop rate in sheds and allow them to spawn with another tire randomly in all areas , not as a dynamic event but just as a new item so to speak , one that would represent two tires and would need to be seperated ... Maybe they would be tied together looking like they were ready to sell needing a knife to cut, after all an added bonus should always need something extra to get it !

I just quoted your post as it had the things I wanted to mention : Utes was never scrapped so to speak , it was really just rocket and Matt jumping the gun and adding it to appeal to the masses , but it was realized afterwards (closer to the release of alpha) that it would take up too many resources (and it would have in early alpha , I say they should add it during beta stage if anything!) and that it doesn't fit with the game ... So now we have its replacement : the prison island off of kamenka !Also the empty can thing would be cool but it was discussed as mostly a waste of resources simply because so many cans are used by players. And your idea of tracking is neat but it provides the meta game thought of "oh I see cans here I know someone is close by " when in reality that would never be a solid indicator of recent human presence . Kar-98k was taken from the mod (as many things were at first because the developers just wanted to get things going) and I believe they showed a recent updated image of that on Chris' trello (maybe it was m1-garand ...) to be reintroduced at some point ...

And this one is Biohaze's, taken at the same time. He isn't seeing the same thing that I am. I had to pick up the pumpkins and then drop them for them to show up on his client. This happened to me but more extreme ... I was traveling with two friends and randomly upon reconnecting i couldn't see my third friend but my second friend could ... That's gonna be an issue , and all the while I couldn't see certian zombies that was attacking them : one of the zombies was caught in the police station , I was first to open the door and apparently the zombie ran right through me , didn't attack me and instead ran straight to the others in the back ... This is definitely Weird , it couldn't see me and I couldn't see it but my friends could , it was like we were in different partial instances where only my second friend was the link between the two dimensions ...

Lol

So what's the verdict boyZ? Are we seeing just map updates is that why the patch is so big ? Forgive my ignorance , still stuck at work !

This is literally the meaning of alpha , not trying to sound like a broken record , but it literally is why the huge "I accept" words are where they are at the start of the game ... If you don't want to deal with wipes , unfortunately the only way to do that is to wait for full release D: !

Very strange to see the numbers all different ... I can't wait to see what the experimental bunch finds ... Today's gonna be a short work day that's for sure XD !

It's still in the works no ETA yet , I just get excited =D...

Actually , try going on an experimental server that is low to medium pop after a restart and you can throw incredibly smoothly ... I threw a flare from the Svetlo police station roof towards the house across from it and it glided through the air at a really fast speed and even bounced correctly when it hit the bullding and subsequently the floor ! But I have to say yes , more than half of the time it is still choppy when it glides through the air ... But I had to share that experience , it must have been two days ago on update 12 or 11 , and I had to share that experiende because I know a lot of us are eagerly waiting the day we can throw a knife at our opponents trigger finger XD ! On another note : Woot woot new experimental !!! Can't wait to get on after work tonight ....

Cigarettes , bottle of vodka and "dime bag" (definitely weed) was added to the game files a long time Ago, definitely waiting for new animation system / player controller to add that .... We should make a thread called "in game file previews" as I know many many things were already shown fully rendered and designed and it would be useful for newbies to the forums to see ... Here's some things I know they put on the dev tracker , trello , or Twitter that shows what will be in game that they just have to wait on : bean bag guns/ other non lethals , bear and wolf , vodka , weed , cigarettes , electrical generator / substation functioning, new falling animation , procedural generated zombies (or at least new models) , advanced physics demo (just recently put out), new suicide animations, base building and contaminated terrain (shown at recent game expo), photos showcasing the new renderers power (also shown in same status report from game expo week), Improvised tent , and I know I'm forgetting more as they have slowly leaned over the past uear and a half (I wanna saY we saw the bear and wolf at least 8 months ago). Patience is truly a virtue and That's something that usually wears thin when we are waiting for something so great to finish , but anybody with other juicy tidbits that have been previewed that have been uet to be released should post them here , hopefully with screenies/ links !

EVERYTHING YOU HAVE MENTIONED IS PLANNED . PLEASE DO SOME RESEARCH BEFORE QQ! PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE !
