Dayz's Flawed Foundations: Movement and Gunplay
Girth Brooks replied to lakevu's topic in Suggestions
OG Dayz mod was jank-city, just like most mods are. They decided to bake the code in, take away our view distance slider for consoles, changed the player controller to fit console limits, then give us BACK our view distance slider for PC. All the while taking 10 fucking years to get the car code to work. There was a 6 month period where DAYZ had NO infected in it, because jank code. A game about surviving infected and none to be seen. Just players on a 40 man server. And people still played. Also vanilla players are the vast minority. -
Dayz's Flawed Foundations: Movement and Gunplay

The second this game went to consoles it went downhill. I doubt they will release a Dayz2, most likely just keep dropping maps at $20 a pop in perpetuity. -
Update 1.27 Xbox Experimental (Change Log)
Girth Brooks replied to merropa93's topic in Xbox Experimental Updates
So consoles have had Dayz for 10 years ? Your math isn't mathing. It's taken them 10 years to still not make bikes. Or Helis. Or Bows. Or a real medical system with broken bones etc. 10 years of mostly walking. The reason Dayz is still around is Modders. Period. And consoles don't get those either, unless you're playing Reforger. There is a console side of this forum for a reason. -

It's because consoles we're nothing but a money grab, a second thought. You get stuff last. Just how it is being a console player playing a ported game. -
DayZ Frostline Dev Blog Week 46
Girth Brooks replied to lynn.zaw's topic in DayZ Frostline Expansion Dev Blog
There is exactly ZERO original devs trying to realize Rockets plan. They left about 5-6 years ago. So this is what we get. -
Weird how the exact same problems exist across all the BI games that use battleye. Must not mean anything. Silly me.
-
Yeah, Bohemia doesn't do that, and are way to cheap for a real, working anti-cheat. This has been going on for 10 years, they can't and also won't bother to fix the cheating. It's a battle they can't win and they refuse to address it. Sad.

An Update No One Asked For Broke PC
Girth Brooks replied to Npresta505's topic in General Discussion
Mods break nearly every patch. This your first time playing I guess ? -
Duping is so prevalent, a wipe is their only option to get everyone on a level field. MAYBE...just maybe they will have a fix at some point in the future. But lets be real. This game came out in 2014, if they haven't fixed by now they never will be able to.
-
They will 100% wipe
-
It seems random when beaching the boat, sometimes it disappears underground after you exit, sometimes while you are in driver seat.
-
Just so ya know, you can ride boats under the map. Maybe fix that before the next update drops.

DayZ Frostline Dev Blog Week 36
Girth Brooks replied to lynn.zaw's topic in DayZ Frostline Expansion Dev Blog
A map this size needs 60 players minimum or its gonna be dumb -
Walking should be option not requirement
Girth Brooks replied to FuzzyBear182's topic in Suggestions
Vehicles have always been a part of the dayz experience since the mod. They could totally add more vehicles. They could up the player count on their servers if they just paid for it, instead of the silly 40/60 player count for the base game. Go look at the community tab and see what Dayz REALLY can be. Modders are making it happen. EVERY play style is there, just browse a bit. The devs made promises they still ( 10 years later) have not been able to keep. There are no original devs working on this game anymore, due to its age. So who knows what kind of goofy idea they will throw in next. Honestly surprised there are no micro transactions yet tbh -
Fake news. Official server cars are usually in a ditch upside down. Show pics are we just gonna laugh at you.

Never played the mod I guess? -
DayZ Frostline Dev Blog Week 24
Girth Brooks replied to scott.bowen's topic in DayZ Frostline Expansion Dev Blog
So ya'll take away our view distance slider years ago to cater to consoles, and now you give it back in a less customizable format? Once again the decisions here don't make any sense. -
Dayz's Flawed Foundations: Movement and Gunplay
Girth Brooks replied to lakevu's topic in Suggestions
Never was. Cool, lets bury this post now. -
We were promised a medical system over a half-decade ago. What we got is what we have. Don't hold your breath.
-
Duping is everywhere. Don't state facts when you know they aren't true.
-
29m wait to log on - Seriously what are you thinking
Girth Brooks replied to nitelife69's topic in General Discussion
When will ya'll console folk finally realize that console Dayz was an afterthought. It will never reach parity with the pc version. Ever. Not that the PC version is any better. -
You can't stop it because the way the cheats work is fundamentally different now. Most of these cheats use 2 PC's to achieve their goals. The devs can't, and more importantly, won't, stop it.
-
maybe don't play on a 10 year old console
-
Yes, this game is messed up. We went MONTHS WITHOUT infected. We went MONTHS with infected that would NEVER lose aggro and would follow you across the ENTIRE map. We went MONTHS with infected that could jump fences, yet we could not. Drop a weapon on the ground and *poof* its gone. Camera glitches that are still present. Cheating software that can't be detected. A vehicle sim that was supposed to be for DAYZ but went to Arma Reforger instead. Gun sway used to be absurd. We had broken bones for a bit and then that is gone. Rust has a more fleshed out DAYZ mod than this game. Name calling is for the weak.
