    No more loot in tents again?

    Looks like its either not enabled/changed on all GSP or looted already?

    Loot Fix on All Servers Now?

    It is still not on all servers, played on 2 regular stable servers last night and no changes there. For the OP, the second screenshot, I pickup loot there before, this isnt new.

    why do YOU play DayZ?

    I have been playing video games for quite a while and I must admit there is simply no game like it in my experience. I ditched the DayZ mod aside shortly after trying it - found it just too cumbersome to even install let alone play it - but was drawn to buy DayZ SA after watching a few videos. Basically the gist of it for me is two things: 1. The Sandbox experience. A game that has no goal, you just spawn there. What? Yes, I found this single feature just brilliant, at the time of Operation Flashpoint I had loved the concept already with the Expansion pack "resistance" where you start off alone as an escapee prisoner. For once a game that doesnt guide you in any way. A simplistic, beautiful uncluttered HUD too to go along with this :) 2. The tension created by the PVP experience. I have played many FPS, RTS, MMOs and others type of Multiplayer games but there is nothing quite like Dayz SA when it comes to building the tension for this ultimate PVP confrontation. At least, with my style of gameplay... I do see a lot going on on the coast in streams or videos but to be honest this is not my cup of tea, I can play GTA or COD even to get that messing around spawn/die/spawn/die style gameplay. So yeah, this is why I play Dayz SA, for its total freedom and infinite role playing ability but also for its constant tension that forces you to be on alert all the time.

    DayZ Glitches and Oddities

    that's it then yes - you need to output from Premiere at 1080 16:9 this would fix it. Must be a simple parameter issue somewhere!

    The Fist Bandit - Having Fun With Dem Thangs

    The video is okay, not really my type of Dayz Video but kudos for doing it anyway.

    Never go AFK

    Must have missed something, dont get that video at all. "someone is shooting" : no shooting sounds at all. ?!

    actually became a zombie game!

    indeed. and this is valid for gunshots or melee attacks from players too.Having all green status help as well - energized, hydrated, healthy

    About persistent objects and immersion

    posted 3 days ago, looked legit to me, cant see how they would have the mechanics for the xbow, etc.. ?

    The rarest sh*t I ever found

    Was same for me, still have mine. Apparently loot spawning again on Tents and LRS not so rare now, so I hear...

    About persistent objects and immersion

    Just found this, shows a tent container https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KiI0zPtA9A

    Crossbow being effective

    This. I have no issues with any added weapon in Dayz so far and I am actually looking forward to the x-bow and bow. I like the idea of a silent kill - the Amphibia S already does a great job at this, providing its a HS.

    About persistent objects and immersion

    Same for me, but the odd extra LRS or Stab vest would be likely part of my "stash" - again we do not know enough facts - Devs might well decide to give containers with very limited slots and only taking in certain items like food/drink/medical supplies.
  14. zeroy

    About persistent objects and immersion

    A very real issue however, with the idea of the containers being fixed in the world (fridges, cupboards) then it cannot be cross - servers as the same container could already be in use by another players. I think its going to be server specific, unless they use non fixed containers like backpacks.
  15. zeroy

    About persistent objects and immersion

    I dont think that the item would keep the parent as the player but rather the parent would be the container they are in. Container which will have a number of slots assigned to it. Imagine the fridges and cupboard in the less lootable houses, you could put stuff in them and those would be permanent until picked up again. I think this is the way it will be done for Alpha.

    About persistent objects and immersion

    Thinking again and reading Retro19 post above it may not be that hard for Devs to implement this... but I imagine items stored will be permanent even post death when first committed, We would then quickly see how it affects the game.
  17. zeroy

    About persistent objects and immersion

    I have no doubts its do-able but would require that every item picked up on servers carry an owner which gets deleted when item is dropped and changed when owner changes, this would, imo, considerably higher the Client-Server messages, something the Devs already have issues with.
  18. zeroy

    About persistent objects and immersion

    This is a good point actually. Do we know that Dean/Devs intend to have the persistence even after death? Im starting to think that it would make a lot of sense to have ability to store stuff while alive only. I can also see what many have mentioned here when it comes to the decision making knowing you can re-kit quickly should you die... it would be a game changer but not for the better!

    Respawning Loot Prototype

    Empty of players, not loot. I think its a very effective way to prevent server hopper as server admins wont have to restart their servers at set times anymore.

    Sneaky server update! (confirmed)

    mmm the Arch House was always spawning stuff in the hall, that hasnt changed. Agreed, where is the confirmation? we arent seeing actual loot in those building pictures, just the buildings.

    The rarest sh*t I ever found

    Found a stab vest in Polana Police Station, was damaged I recall, not very good as no pockets.

    DayZ Glitches and Oddities

    Could be a problem with the source file, what resolution do you play at? And check the output setting of the video you obtain pre-youtube upload. I presume you play on a 16:9 monitor?

    DayZ Glitches and Oddities

    You cannot see that the aspect ratio is off? the height isnt right, you can see all the object and players are squeezed.
  24. zeroy

    More coastal gun spawns?

    I dont think its required. There are guns already fairly close to the coast. Beside this, I do enjoy the freshspawn status and how you must be extra careful yet loot as quick as you can and get yourself kitted up again.

    Dayz SA - Day 2: Eastbound and Down

    Airfield/Prison = KoS - its 90% kill or be kill so I dont blame you.
