IReadTheAgreement

There's no sophisticated injury simulation, there are no persistent servers (Sorry the backup workaround doesn't count here), authentic gun play no longer exists in this game, there's nothing rewarding about fixing a vehicle to be killed by it minutes later, and saying there is seamless network synchronization is a joke. How can they sell it with such blatant lies?

I could go on about this but it seems like no one wants to listen. PERSISTENCE DOESN'T WORK! It says explicitly on the Steam page that's what they are selling. If they say it works when you buy it, and it doesn't, it's not a mistake. It's a straight up lie. Other things I've mentioned don't work either, which were also sold to people on the Steam page, but we'll just gloss over that since no one seems happy discussing anything but persistence. EDIT: Misread your comment as "how" instead of "why". For that I apologize. To be honest I'm not concerned with "why" they would lie.

If it's not a lie what would you call selling a game that doesn't provide what was promised when you bought it as a finished 1.0 product? Is it OK that the features you paid for reading their own description of the game don't exist? Is it an "Oops"? They can't hide behind early access excuses anymore.

Calling others kids is always a sure sign of ones own maturity. Good on you for it! It also turns out that force restarts aren't the only cause of persistence wipes. Even a normal, scheduled server restart will do it. So again, you don't seem to know what you're talking about. It's also no where near the purpose of this post. You all keep trying to skew it. The fact is what is advertised on the DayZ Steam page isn't in game. They shouldn't be selling it with those promises.

Those "idiotic server owners" who are paying for DayZ to stay relevant shouldn't be getting any of the blame. You don't seem to know what you're talking about like usual. I view you as a joke on these forums like I'm sure many others do.

You have a defeatist attitude. Is that how you go through life too? I'm not here to "square BI away" but I can announce my displeasure with them to my hearts desire. If they chose to ignore me that's fine. I've still spoken my peace. Unless they unfuck DayZ I won't be purchasing any game from BI again anyway. Why would I purchase ARMA 4 when they can't even offer what's promised when purchasing DayZ?

You mean the server in your signature? The one that hasn't had over a few players on at a time in the last month? You don't say! It generally happens on full 60/60 servers.

Persistence doesn't work. End of story. Reloading backups is not persistence. We can play word games all day on the rest.

I fail to see how posting inconsistencies (or straight lies) with what this game promises from the store it's selling it from as an empty accusation. Especially since that's what people expect after paying $45 for it. Sure, it won't result in anything because BI doesn't care, but showing disapproval with bad practices is important. Carry on.

Because that isn't what persistence means. Having to restore from backup isn't persistent.

I got it. It just wasn't funny or clever. Want to stop trying to derail this thread and get on topic?

No, I read it. Just trusted them to follow through, which they didn't. So here we are.

lol. Here we go everyone!

Maybe stop being condescending to the remaining players here? You hardly have a leg to stand on. Doesn't really matter in the end I guess. This SR has put so many old players off of DayZ I can't see the majority of them even wanting to load this poor excuse you guys are calling 1.0 when it comes out. This is my first post on these forums in a long time and will most likely be my last. Enjoy riding out the sinking ship you sunk yourselves.

So why was it last updated March 9th? It's right on the checklist page. That's two missed updates. So yes, something was missed, twice.

So far two out of four updates have been missed since this checklist was released. I seriously appreciate everything you guys do to get this game out, but that doesn't look good.

I was wondering the exact same thing. I know in the end it doesn't really matter but a clarifying post from Baty or a dev would be much appreciated. My mind always seems to get stuck on these little things.

Anyone else having problems with Shadow Play? My hotkeys are no longer working.

A guy on Skalisty Island was stabbing me as I was logging in so I didn't live long. Looked good though. Round 2.

.62 you say? Time to jump back in the ring.

I just got accustomed to typing "experimental" in search. Has always worked so far. Hope it helps buddy!

Only got in at the very end there for a couple minutes. While I was in I heard two gunshots. Wow. The audio was fantastic in the short amount of time I got to join. I recorded the whole thing but unfortunately you can't see much. I was on a nighttime server and the recording is too dark. You can still hear the gunshots though so I'm keeping it.

Had the rare occasion to play DayZ for a few hours straight today. I was experiencing hyperthermia around Pustoshka and decided to kneel down in a stream to cool off. Walked away from the PC for a few minutes and was dead when I came back. After watching a replay of the video I found out I had drowned. My knee in the water drowned me. So that wasn't what the fix was for. Sorry, just salty.

The idea of nailing a head shot on a military infected with an arrow, running up to the body, and looting it for a 1911 with a full mag makes me happy.

My luck has run out. I was gunned down in Novaya Petrovka. I only wanted to borrow their car... Found a few bugs so I guess it was all worth it.
