Ugly (DayZ)

This is a fantastic thread. Great discussions. personally, I think that building a base from scratch should be a huge undertaking, needing multiple people to put the second floor up (sheet metal is heavy AF!), but a single story, walled-in compound should be achievable with a lot of dedication by a single person. walls could be sheets of metal, logs, or something as flimsy as canvas/tarps (so zombies/animals won't see you, but not much use against human players looking to break in. hell, you should be able to stack bricks if you have enough. hopefully 8 day persist can be balanced properly. i think bases big and small should be a part of the game.

hi DayZ team! Just want to say I really,,,,,,,,, REALLY appreciate the new updates! Even if the news is "we're delayed", I very much appreciate being kept in the loop! Thank you!

Done that, haven't found anything besides news from last summer. was curious if I have missed anything. guess there is no news atm.

Hi. Curious if anyone has any information on the 'single player', 'offline' mode that was spoken about last summer (2015) its almost summer again, so after 8 months have we heard any talk about the mod's status / have they even started it etc. although some people may find the idea of playing 'solo' (offline) boring/ counter to the nature of DayZ, if you feel the need to have that discussion here I discourage it. just want some info on the status of that mode, if there is any news out there.

what? There is already a wait time for server hopping. Your argument makes no sense

Load into a game. Before the city is even finished loading, I am being attacked by a zombie. 1) I logged out safely on the third floor of the building 2) The zombie attacking me was beneath me, then teleported up to the third floor (the door to the room is closed) I would like some kind of system that makes you invisible/invincible to zombies for like, 1 minute after you load, to give the servers time to catch up. Or perhaps until you take your first step, you cannot be hurt/seen/smelt by a zombie. It's not gaming the system, it's not an unrealistic game aspect, it is simply acknowledging the fact that you are vulnerable while the game finishes loading. I don't see how a simple system like this would be able to be abused. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go find a new wool coat.

I feel .51 has increased my playability yes. Good job devs. ps almost all settings low/off, same as before

1: Are door states random? i.e. it used to be that an open door meant someone had been in there. is that still the case, or has that changed? 2: How does item respawn work? (Persistant) Cheers!

By the way Devs... GREAT JOB on the new patch! Everything is so much more fluid now, lag for me has noticeably reduced (most of the time), cities don't stutter along like they used to, character movement seems improved. And my character has stopped resetting, so I am finally able to test the game a little better. yay!

It happens from time to time, but this is happening 100% of the time to me since I updated.

My character is getting reset everytime I join a server. 4 thumbs down.

Not server hopping for loot, if thats what you're implying. Do be honest I am bug testing this, which is why I'm restarting all the time.

Edit: Changes my post as some people are already confused about my situation. Loaded up my game after a month or so, had a new character. No problem. Played for about a half an hour, had to log off. Logged back on, new character. Played with new character for a while. Had to log off. Came back, new character. Start testing: Every restart is a new character. So... I give myself 5 minutes between server changes, every server I join makes me a fresh spawn. On the "public" hive, characters are not saved to a server, are they?

Yeah I just found my first item. I ran all through Berezino and didn't see a thing. Not one single item.

So newpatch (vehicles), my new spawn has been running around looking for anything... And I have not seen a single item. No pens, no notes, no books.... Bugged?
