And eventually we will see those "30+ if not 60 fps" when the clientside optimizations are brought into the game. This has been discussed so many times in other forums topics. Every little bit of fps gained is a big plus in my book.. so yes, I think 2-8 fps is a respectable gain. Especially when it comes to the larger cities. I probably want some massive fps boost for DayZ SA just as much as the next person, but there are other priorities the devs has stated are being worked on first. And I am very cool with that. In the meantime, I'll be happy stalking bandits at 25 fps in the big cities. lol

FPS on my end seems to have improved as well.. More noticeable in the larger city areas. Maybe just a few fps, like 3-5, but does definitely feel more 'fluid'.

And here they come again.. .44 servers are slowly coming back online. again.

They .44 servers were coming up, now it appears they are down again. lol

While the one hit kill to the Zeds is nice to some, I kinda like having to take multiple wacks at at a zed before it goes down. Take away that easy button option of the one hit melee kill, please. As I am one for not making the game too easy.. Much rather have a little bit of difficulty when dispatching the zeds.

Starting to see some of the Stable branch servers (44.123800) come back online.. waiting for our server to come back up still tho.

Maybe the rubberbanding is hinting towards a new weapon addition coming.. hmm.. ? :P

I'm sure all the said issues will be addressed down the road.. And it's a long road till DayZ becomes the 'finished' product we all are waiting for. Each update bring new goodies for DayZ SA, and fixes here and there.. just have to be patient while the major issues are sorted out and fixed. I'm in for the long haul with DayZ SA, and enjoying being a part of the progress being made with it.

I found myself the Ashwood stick.. now the hunt for the elusive rope. I used to see it everywhere, when I wasn't looking for it. Now that I need it, I can't find it. Go figure.. Wanna test this out for myself and see how it works out.

Nice job! lol.. kids or not, they would have, and tried, to kill you. Well done!

In the DayZ Epoch mod, you can turn into a Zed. If you are infected when you die.. Not a bad idea. :P

I feel they need to add the player activated sounds.. which I would think they would add these in the future. especially the doors/gates creaking when being opened, and the same for the sound of a closing door. Running into objects ingame making noises, besides the bushes.. maybe even the snapping of twigs as you stalk people in the forests, if there are downed trees, tree limbs, etc..Kinda making you have to watch your step somewhat in the wooded areas. I'd like to think we'll see some of the great ideas posted here in the future.

Not there yet.. I was wondering up in the area where the new town is going to be, and nothing yet. Tent loot is in the stable build as well.. has been for awhile now. :P

looks like someone looking for a party.. No holster?

It's back in the experimental build again btw.. :P

Found me some Binocs.. work quite nicely!

It is indeed most likely that you are having a connection/desync issue. Happens to me from time to time.

They also have the Hive as "Private".. :P hmm.. might have to check this out.

I'm still playing SA daily and have 430+ hrs. Sure, there are some "slow" times while playing.. But I usually run with a group of people which usually makes things a lot more amusing. Playing solo can be a bit boring at times.. When that happens, go look for a good firefight.. or start one! Just head into your favorite heavily populated server and head to a airfield/base, or any of the cities people are always in.. and cause some mayhem with guns blazing. You'll get some attention I'm sure. Then the boredom is instantly over and the adrenaline rush begins. A good firefight never gets boring.. Never.

It'll be fixed.. in time. Hopefully sooner than later tho. Just sucks that more and more players in DayZ SA are learning about this bug/glitch everyday.. whether it be by accident, or whatever. And you know as well as the next person, it's hard to find an "honest" player who does not, and would not, use such a glitch to their advantage to help them stay alive. I'm not going to sit here and lie to everyone and say I have not done it.. because I have. I'm almost sure everyone who has knowledge of this has done it a time or 4. Just hope it's fixed early on. Does get kinda annoying knowing that someone is trying to get the upperhand by knowing what exactly your doing inside a building before you know there outside. :)

@#$% happens.. lol Welcome to DayZ. THAT, was your story. I've been screwed over by players early on, playing the mod. Learned this type of lesson pretty quick. I consider it all part of the life of a DayZ player. Something you will need to get used to I'm afraid. If you need people to run with, hmu on Steam. I'm always looking for more people to help ruin a bandits day.

Yes.. You'll run it fine. I also use a 8350 with 2x GTX 560 Ti's in SLI and get 50+ in open areas while 20-30 in large cities. Settings, well.. Most setting turned on Low/disabled just to get better performance in the large city areas.

Let's hope so.. Looking forward to playing with the new additions coming.

I'm generally a pretty cautious player ingame. When coming up to a town/city that usually is a 'hotspot' for player activity, I'll always try to get a good vantage point of the town and check things out before entering. A little overwatch action. If I am playing with clanmates or other buddies, we usually try to setup a few outside squadmates the city, around high traffic areas, watching to see anyone coming in/out of the city. While these players are providing overwatch/cover to these areas, we'll have a others, the looters, go into the city and scope out any goodies anyone in the squad may need at the time. I do tend to often play solo as well, but still always play the cautious role and scope of the city as much as possible before entering. And when wandering the Chernarus wasteland heading to wherever I may be going, I will usually avoid the roadways.. if the server if pretty well populated. Unless you want to run into others and draw attention to yourself, then you can keep yourself out in the open.. depends on your situation.

The experimental build will be updated again before we see a stable build patch, with the new additions like the town and other goodies in the dev blog. I don't think it'll be with this maintenance period we are seeing now. I could be wrong, and I hope I am, but I believe it'll be later this month. Maybe next week or the following. And just to add.. People playing on the experimental servers right now. I need to play.. Please quit your game and let me get into one of the experimental servers. There shall be much rejoicing once I am ingame. Thank you for your understanding and patience during my of need.. and I need to play NOW. Thank you... :P
