    Exp Update: 0.58 + Hot Fix.

    best to imagine it's not until tomorrow. (it well could be - or else it could be an hour or two.) nope they tell us very little - it's about discovery

    Do not make DayZ SA Moddable.

    The games I've put most hours into are either moddable or mods.
  3. Leave it beside a high value object i.e. an akm, a scope or a hunting backpack, and in an obvious to see location like the middle of the road.

    Maybe it's some sort of Stockholm type syndrome but I really look forward to the wipes on exp.

    Status Report - 08 Jul 2015

    exp .58 has been fairly low pop in general but given that caveat I can state that I didn't hear phantom sounds once on exp. We'll see what happens on stable high pops but I'm optimistic the most annoying bug in the world is on the way out.

    interesting. so is there a way to see your health status? tbh I quite like guessing and occasionally eating when I'm told I'm hungry as opposed to chasing the light green. Anyway, maybe the new update will have an early iteration of the overlay we saw a while back. We're only seeing the inventory ui right now really.

    Cant Control Where i "look" (move mouse)

    is it like you are not moving your mouse and it's looking up at the sky and 360 all around you etc and you can't stop it - if so then that's your internet/the server you are connected to being laggy. I've had the same, I thought it was a hack, other people have had it too. it's generally a laggy server or your internet connection isn't great. I've had it once or twice. have you always had this or is it a new thing?

    bonus points for the use of "recalcitrant"

    Cant Control Where i "look" (move mouse)

    I think this is your internet connection. I've had it a couple of times on exp. where my character is out of control and i'm looking every direction. Try a low ping server and double check your connection then see if it happens

    A few questions

    1. ask loaded question(s) 2. get replies 3. post about how they are adding hats but not fixing the engine and it's the slowest development ever it's so transparent

    How's The Game Lookin'?

    If that was a genuine question then you would've played for 30 mins (or however long you could bear.) It's not a genuine question though.

    maybe put it first? Also I'm guessing if you have the -winxp launch tag then that'll kill newui.

    Theories on what happened to me!

    His friend killed you. Arranged over ts, I suspect. That's why he slowed down.

    You are right and now that I understand we are zoomed out by default I can judge distance far better BUT if it's counter-intuitive and needs repeated explanation then maybe it's not the best design choice. When I said, 'I don't know why we need to zoom at all' (paraphrased) in your recent vision nerfed thread lots of people agreed. People with loads of hours. There's obviously a disconnect there. Most people don't know you zoom in to 100% and are zoomed out by default. I'd love to try a version where we are at 100% but able to zoom out just to see what it's like.

    I wish they could somewhat randomise deer/hunting stands a bit too especially since they currently are a bit of a goldmine i.e. the only place to find hunting scopes.

    Exp Update: 0.58 + Hot Fix.

    Incidentally, hopefully in the final game using the various dayz maps to find truck/heli spawns will be almost useless due to the chance of them spawning in so many places. What I liked in this exp was not really knowing where anything spawned. And I could see a lot of people are still looking in the places they know for stuff they expect and not bothering with certain buildings.

    The global chat makes me want to kill everyone. It's not so annoying in the old ui but it's rage inducing with the new.

    Make doors always open away from you

    The only thing about doors that kind of annoys me is a lot of the front doors at at the back. Maybe it's a russian thing but typically doors are road side everywhere else in the world.

    Will there ever be a Fullscreen Windowed Option?

    I just add the following to my launch parameters -noPause -noborder I am able to move my mouse from screen to screen as long as I'm in my inventory. just posting this as I went down the rabbit hole trying to figure this out (edit config etc) and realised it was actually a lot simpler than people typically say. I don't even alt tab.

    The loot is amazing if you get on early. I think there were 3 sks and 2 ak-74s around the tank at the neaf plus mags, clips and ammo. I thought the ak74 would fit in a tortilla but it's too wide apparently. So I have an sks and an ak. Wouldn't bother me too much if I lost the ak tbh, I hate dual carrying. Ok maybe hate is too strong a word as dual carrying is eactly what I'm doing. Earlier I found a longhorn then magnum ammo then a magnum. I dropped the longhorn and took the magnum then shortly afterwards the server restarted. When I got back the longhorn was gone from my inventory as was the magnum. I went back to where found the magnum (back of a car) and found the dropped longhorn but no magnum. Odd the way one registered whereas the other didn't. Damn I bet I left the short ak and picked up the long one. Oh well
