    Status Report - 26 Nov 2015

    Hi Brian, thx for doing this - first question is mby for Eugen. sorry for double questions. 1) I only see one 1st and about 7 3rd person EXP Servers from CEU. Any plans to double server numbers and turn them 1st? 2) Legacy systems and -newui / the performance boost is amazing but items in vicinity are so small. Overall, usability and design is "weird" even for a placeholder, regarding -oldui is a placeholder too. Changes to this are WIP? 2.1) -oldui feels much worse now you know the boost from new. Is it correct to assume that as soon as the blockers are resolved the complete transition to newui with finished basics will occur? 3) 0.59 is all about vehicle desync - does this also mean multiple crashing vehicles, like a derby, with physics? 4) Also if yes, vehicle desync works before stable push, does that mean player desync works even better? Correlation? 5) Renderer. A treat for the community would be a screenshot of the improved nighttime in a SR in the future. Or is it all about implementation first? 6) Physics and ragdoll, regarding we'll soon have alot of different vehicles and alot of zombies for the first time, will weird(deadly) physics behavior be addressed during 0.59 or is in one of these ongoing battles? thx again

    Has Anyone Else lost Faith in Dayz?

    Just forget the game and revisit it in a year :) i dont play much atm just to find some bugs. With the mod bugs were final, but now we can submit them to make sure the team is working on a fix, so for me personally, DayZ is going to be a really big thing, and it will be a big topic in game history.

    Armed Helicopters Are NOT Overpowered

    I'm not sure on Choppers. I fear in the end a few entitled squads will own the whole server. So everyone stops playing and leave them alone. Fun?
  5. What i found like 150 rounds 5.56 when looking for a single AKM Mag.

    What should I keep? the AKM or M4?

    So if i find both i would take the M4 i guess, aslong as the AKM doesnt get a Kobra Sight. But if that happens i'll go for the AKM all the way: Ammo is more common, Ammo does more damage, its a auto SKS so its deadly as fuck, simple as that. Im hooked if we get a frontgrip for both.
  7. Thats simply a question we cannot answer, so this poll is useless. We have no insight in the dev process, so assuming you know whats right to do is arrogant imo. OFC you can tell what you would like to see next. That the game runs like shit is semi true, on some servers i get buttersmooth FPS, but special cities always drop under 20. Theres a big need for optimization, but with Infusion, things will change alot.

    Stream Sniping....

    BikeMan just stopped playing DayZ SA so often because of those snipers, thats hella lame! I can understand it can be fun I myself thought about joining that same server and do some shit, but in the end you'll just ruin everything, and the fun of the streamer playing at all. Bad Karma!

    Where did YOU find an AKM

    Zelenogorks Baracks 75rnd on the bed in jail at Vybor 3 x 30rnd mags in the jails/hangars/tents and NWAF

    Gender Discrimination and Prejudice

    I truly support you on this. Im a "huge" fan of Kiwo, who streams DayZ, and when male players find out shes a women, they insult her the way im truly ashamed of my gender..
  11. When we hit beta, as simple as that.

    Where do I find the AKM?

    I spent 6 hours this weekend looking for an AKM, the first 2 hours i couldn't even get my hands on a mag. Now in my inventory i have: 4 x 30rnd AK mag 2 x 75rnd AK drum mag 1 x pristine wooden buttstock 2 x pristine foldable buttstock 2 x pristine PSO scope. too much ammo no AK still. On exp i found mags and the AK in one hour, but thats just luck. EDIT: I FOUND ONE! And besides, in that time i saw atleast 12 SKS, 4 Mosins, and even 2 M4s while passing heli crashes.

    Need to talk to a DEV. Or someone like that.

    Haha "quick questions". You can try to tweet them. Why not ask us, we can probably help. Most of us do know everything the Devs wants us to. Everything else is secret anyway.

    Convince me to buy dayz.

    Its gameplay wise already way better than the mod - it's "just" lacking content. It will be, and already is, way better than the mod. The mod is clunky, laggs, and the Zs are a joke, like the engine itself. The SA already made major steps in a better future, Chernarus+ alone is reason enough why SA is already better. But you'll never know if the full game is any good, if your name istnt Nostradamus. So you can't let that price out of the discussion because right now its 20 €, and later 60 € - that 40 € difference is the bargain, if you're willing to RISK, and support a game in Early Access. If you're still arguing about gameplay, you dont understand what Early Access means, we can't tell you if SA is/will be better than the mod, because its just a work in progress... My personal opinion? SA is gameplay wise already better, even if i have to walk everywhere.
  15. I searched the forum rules because i was afraid this gets misunderstood as blatant advertising for my channel. Please keep in mind, i have 8 clips up, and i'm not even sure if my stuff is monetized. I still hope i'm in the right section. STORY: I spawned fresh near Berezino, and was about to marathon run to Svetlo to meet my friend, when i met 5 people in Berezino, one after another. We decided to stay together, just for fun. As we traveled between Berezino, Krasnostav, Cernaya Polana and Novodmidrovsk, we were up to 15 people at one point. It was completely random, very confusing, but so awesome to play DayZ as a random team, trying to survive. Everyone helped, dropped food, traded ammo and we looted whole cities in under 15 minutes and gathered all the loot together and shared it. It was a unique experience for me until this day, there were only few times this happened in the mod to me, but the mod is lacking a lot of atmosphere the SA provides us today. In this group were people from countries all over Europe. Awesome if you ask me! Spoiler: A traitor joins the group in the end. And please excuse the killings, the people with the nervous trigger finger experienced justice. Enjoy how we did it. Sorry for my voice, the echo (one of the guys must had speakers on...) and everything that could bother you.

    I won't lie, I'm quite excited

    I should mention i only play experimental in SA. I dont even know why stable exists. Im always hyped when they push to stable, because it means they push internal to experimental, and the most fun i have in SA, is finding the new little things they add :) Inb4 any1 asks, if exp doesn't work, i just don't play for that period of time, I give every update 2-4 hours of gameplay, just to see the latest additions.

    Mouse Movement

    Yeah very strange for me too, like its kinda delayed, when i stop moving my mouse, the view still moves a tiny bit every time, very confusing on HC. I'll try that low dpi fix thx for the tip

Just post me a PM it took me weeks to figure out the best settings for dxtory just drop me a message with questions you might still have i'm happy to help out its not very user friendly. Edit: saw your previous post. Chinese Yen =/ Japanese Yen! Just trying to help I mean i new it if i spend 500 € on shit software :D 3600 Japanese yen =35.5464 U.S. dollars
  20. As i really (would) like to play at nighttime, i thought about starting (another) discussion thread about this topic. SA made a huge step already. Dusk/Nighttime are super immersive and beautiful and i wish there would be something that makes you WANT to play during these. I dont want to discuss the situation we have right know, because its a WIP as we all know. What came to my mind was, when we try to keep DayZ authentic but playable, theres a contradiction. When i had to survive in a Chernarus like area, nights would be pretty cold. I live in the same climatic area, and right now temperatures are between 0° and 15° degrees night/day. The only way to survive this would be to seek shelter, make a fireplace and sleep to keep warm. In DayZ this would be equal to logging off, and thats not desired imo. When its raining and dusky, and its like 4°C you'll start to tremble. I could imagine something similar to the "pain" effect of the mod. I just want to share some collective thoughts on this topic. What could make the night more playable? A full moon all the time would be unrealistic imo, but a prolongued dusk maybe (just an example), wich looks awesome immersive btw. Clouds reflect city lights in RL, brightening the environment, but we have none in DayZ. Share some of your thoughts! Torches? Street lights? And in the woods? Maybe we need to carry extra clothing with us, we could fold them. Give the devs some input on this. Please no "ghetto night vision" and "Disable clouds" answer, because those are just workarounds for the current state of the game. Video Related: the transition of a beatiful scene, to a unsatisfying pitch black night.
  21. I played the mod again, just to fly around in a chopper on a new map they made. But thats it. People are scared to interact, the cuddle up cosy in their exclusive squads, build their camps, and run around kill others. Its nothing more than some milsim with 1% survival. Oh you got hit? Take this bloodpack. Its just too easy, not surviving, but fighting. In SA you'll think twice when you have some gear if you're really going to engange. You cant just back up, blood pack up and you're good to go. And such shit makes fighting frustrating in the mod, except everyone just headshots with an M107.. yay..

    We NEED some way to identify heros and bandits.

    What the heck, please no, thats one of the major points that make your decisions so hard in DayZ, because you just dont know! Gooddammit im really frustrated someone really wants that shit back. As they introduced Bandits/Suvivor skins to the mod it ruined everything. There was not much KOS before that, but since then "hurr durr ima bandit i liek to kill peeps"
  23. I have one :D i need it quite often since im working late, and most servers i join are either only day (dont like that) or just at dusk/night (about 16:00pm server time). I couldn't stand the fact that i died because i had no flashlight. But thats a good point you're starting with. Would you run around with a flashlight in your hands, in a fairly populated Chernarus? Weapon flashlights could change alot, but even with those i would get very paranoid. Anyone could spot you right away. In my imagination i would rather stumble through darkness, than being an target. I could imagine giving morse codes when i see another person, trying to communicate, showing that i'm giving away my position but i want to interact, just as an example.
  24. Steyr Aug. Because we used it in the "army". And i was astonished from the data sheet. Extremely high bullet velocity, very good at higher range too. Common ammunition. If they wouldn't add the AK47 already i would've chosen it.
