Except for us Australians. The maintenance is right at the time I get home from a days work. It is a killer, but actually makes me get shit done as soon as I get home so i can dedicate the rest of the evening to smashing some DayZ. New Exp patch will be awesome if it gets released fairly close to the Stable push. State of Origin will keep me occupied until the servers come back on.

They actually have been on a schedule for a while, it has only been kept to schedule once, as you stated. Hopefully we will get in the groove of Wed updates if the timelines for releases are met.

Dose it not make loot a bit more of a valuable commodity? Make you value gear a bit more now that it is a bit rarer? I played this build in experimental for a bit, so I am used to it, and to be honest, it makes finding decent gear more of a challenge and achievement. There are also many more police stations and Medical Huts around different cities this build, so there is actually more chance of finding decent gear, not only at the Airfields. Just my opinion however and a fresh spawn is HARD now. I like this.

As stated many times already, they are a good addition to the game. The spawning right near you is a bit harsh, I think a spawn in the woods would be better, but the challenge that they pose now is much better. This MAY encourage people to work together a bit more, to help with the threat and loot more safely. I think, IMO, the only change to this current zombie build would be to move the pawn point further away from the player. It is not impossible to bandage/do things with these zombies either, you just need to be more careful and have a plan of attack.

This is great news. Cant wait to get home tonight and have a go. Thanks so much dev's, just when I start to get a bit over DayZ and think it's time to move on, something comes along and captures me for days. This is just the latest iteration of this. Frigging awesome, thanks again Hicks, Rocket and Co.

Now with the updates rolling out less frequently, this is a must have. I really want to have a go at the most recent updates to experimental, keen as. The problem, as stated, is the ping to the international servers. It is going to be 2 weeks at least until it is pushed to stable, and after reading the changelog, I am super keen to have a go. Come on dude, show some love to the AUS/NZ Region, your part of the world. Cant blame you for wanting to come back as quickly as possible. Has anyone from our area tried out the international experimental servers? The ping just looks too bad, so I have not even tried. Is it playable?
