Prison island on stable 0.57 spawns all the TTsKO, Gorka, and police clothes, as well as the plate carrier vests.

In 0.57 stable, at the newly enter-able guard houses, around tanks/BMP and the static crash sites mostly. In 0.58 Exp, barracks have military loot once more, but Camo/prison building don't spawn anything at all to temporarily remove the glitchers while we get a permanent fix. Also the crash sites a little less static, but neither do the heli crash sites or police cars are really dynamic right now, and both need some work still. Every military bases where there are tents have one of the tents full of the items usually spawning. (Myshkino tent city, Stary Sobor tents, NWAF tents.) Good luck! Edit: As of 0.58 stable, dynamic events are currently 100% working as intended. I've been crash site hunting and it's more reliable than ever, with the majority of the player base just server hopping the officer's tent...

Thanks for sharing this!! BTW, hos was your experience with Windows 9? Was there even a Windows 9?!? :rolleyes: (I'm still on Win7 Ultimate x64... And still loves it! <_< )

I found a few pistol holsters, in various outhouses. No precise location really, but I've found at least 6 or 7. Only 1 worn, and the rest damaged though, and right now, no matter of 0.57 or 0.58 you can't seem to be able to fix vests in any way. I remember back in 0.55, you could fix to "pristine" condition the complete vest using the leather sewing kits. Well, everything repaired with either leather sewing kits, weapon cleaning/repair kits, or normal sewing kits was getting fixed to "pristine". Good times. B)

You can easily find the plate carrier at the prison island, the pouches at the Myshkino tent city (experimental), or NWAF tents (experimental), guard houses (stable), where you find vests in general, and as for the pistol holsters, well, in outhouses. It may sound silly, but it's the truth. This is valid for both experimental 0.58 and stable 0.57.

Interesting encounters indeed!!

Some random shots of the current 0.58 exp build. Enjoy.

Sharing a few of my shots too. A bit late, granted. I hope everyone had a great 4th of July!

It never was a sniper rifle in the first place. It may have been used to snipe, and still can, but in no way was the mosin nagant a sniper rifle. You can say it's a bolt action military rifle, or Russian service rifle in WW1, WW2 and the Russo-Japanese war before World War 1.

The long range scope was removed. You need a PU scope for the mosin, like Elle said. If you want long range on a scope, try using the hunting scope on a Winchester model 70 (Alaskan), or the SVD.

Cargo pants in industrial garages. Hunter pants in the new school building. Jeans and canvas in many civilian houses. TTsKO and police uniforms at the prison island. Expect the loot spawns to change again many times before we hit beta. The various loot spawn/locations have already changed more times than I can remember...

I want a map in Japan. I always loved the thought of a "zombie apocalypse" in Tokyo. B) Or even, the Japanese wilderness. Anyway, yeah, we should already start thinking about mods to come for sure!! :thumbsup:

This house. This is where I found most of my CR527 mags. Of course you can find them elsewhere (other civilian houses, hilux/pickup wrecks, car wrecks, etc.) but this is the place I found 80%+ of the CR527 mags I encountered. Heck, once I found a mag next to the rifle itself. Goodluck! Safe travels survivor!

There's something we need to understand too. We'll be able to mod the game, single player too. For tests purposes, and for gameplay features. With the addition of more infected, dangerous wild life (wolves, bears, etc) and the survival aspects, it'll be interesting to see. Having some options on how the loot spawns, can make for a barren land filled with dangers. And back to mods, two words: Artificial Intelligence. I played the DayZ mod a lot before starting playing the Stand Alone when it came out, and I already had Single Player versions of the mod. ( Daisy, DayZ X and DayZ 2018) I have to say that being shot from a player or an AI makes absolutely no difference at all. Unless there's vocal interactions between players, simply getting KoS from a player or AI isn't different. The only difference is their motives, which when you're dead, don't matter anymore. One is programmed to do so, the other might have had some interest in your gear, or just wanted to ruin your day, you'll never know unless he gets close enough and start talking about his motives. In the end there's no difference between getting attacked by AI or players. It is simply a bunch of pixels shooting another bunch of pixels in a virtual world. Only consciousness can differ the two, and that is only a matter of perspective. B) Bloody brilliant. :thumbsup:

I don't believe that. Players who like the multiplayer and player interactions will continue to play multiplayer, while people that don't have "powerful PCs" or good internet connection or that simply don't like "PVP" all that much will probably get the game now. Being able to satisfy a wider range of players is only a good thing really. It also means that DayZ will "live forever" as long as there are computers. If there wasn't any single player, when the servers would be shut down, it would mean the end of the game. Online games, or games that need an internet connection have a very limited lifespan. I still play Morrowind, and don't need any internet access. DayZ with single player is Immortal DayZ. I love that.

Yessss!!!! Single Player. I knew it. It was an eventuality, since it would mean a "life after DayZ". I mean, I love online only games, but they die and there's no way to play them after... A lot of online games I seen over the years had their production/development stopped, and had their servers shut down, making it impossible to play. Take for example Diablo. I still play Diablo 1 from time to time, but when Diablo 3 servers come down, it will be impossible to play. It's brilliant really, as a single player option doesn't remove anything from the game really, and don't affect those who play online and vice versa. It will only make more "casual" gamers get the game, or those who have a bad internet connection. I had mentioned that DayZ would get a single player mode very early, and some people started bashing and hating on the reasons I mentioned, saying things like "they should get a better connection then" and what-not, making very disrespectful remarks. Why should we impose our beliefs to others?? http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/163396-singleplayer-offline-mode/?hl=singleplayer http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/197471-single-player-mode/ Anyway, thanks for sharing this Weyland. Looking forward on the future of DayZ. :thumbsup:

I'm glad you can confirm boars to be still in the game. I've seen all the other animals so far, but I've yet to see a boar in 0.57, which is very sad since my favorite backpack is an improvised leather one... :( The hunt is on!! >:(

DayZ is a harsh world. You did good. I met a fellow survivor yesterday. I tried communicating with him, vocally, using various language. He didn't reply anything. Not a single word spoken, or typed. I wiggled. He flipped me off. I laughed and left him there. He wasn't armed, and was probably waiting for me to put him out of his misery, but I didn't. Surviving is tougher than simply giving up... Besides, he might see this as some hope left out there, maybe.

The crash sites are what we called dynamic events. They are currently been worked on, because with persistence it created a bug which didn't allow for loot to respawn at them, and their position was static too. It will be fixed eventually. Try to read the status report to know where we at development side: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/225439-status-report-27-may-15/ As for vehicles, this is also directly linked to persistence, which is stated in the above status report that it's been deactivated for the time being.

Yep. This is a known "issue". (unfinished feature really...) Dynamic events will become dynamic again once CLE and persistence gets updated. B) Safe travels survivor.

:lol: Brings back memories!! :thumbsup: Thanks for sharing this René, much appreciated.

Favorite look so far in 0.57. Not very original since it was mostly how I look like since 0.54/0.55 but still, I love the new textures for hunting pants and jackets. Updated Musty Gaming private hive character. Details.

Brilliant. B) :thumbsup:

Just you. ^_^ I've seen compass at deer stands, in sheds, in civilian houses and other spots too. But, that being said, can only find the brass compass for now, and haven't seen 1 plastic compass in 0.57...

I still find plenty action at Elektro, Berezino and all the mili base, but it all depends on the population on the server really. Edit: What I mean is, high pop servers don't always mean "pvp in elektro battle royal". If you're on a 50/50 full server and you hang around the NWAF for 30-35 minutes, see no one, start shooting the infected roaming around for another 20-30 minutes without seeing or hearing anyone else, it means you might be on a role-play server... Or you're very lucky. ;)
