The amount of stupid in this thread is ridiculous and absurd. Senchi doesn't go to Burger King and tell you all to make a burger in 10 seconds instead of 30

You can usually find out all about new experimental builds both here in general discussion and in the experimental discussion section. I actually prefer to read about the updates in the experimental discussion section, those guys have tons of fun finding, confirming and testing literally all the additions. Plus they post tons of pics. Hope that helps.

Could you imagine if there were dayz nightly builds like some other early access games have? Look at how populated experimental gets when a new gun is announced. Unless they let players run experimental, or nightly, on their own servers it would be like 200 people playing with new stuff and the rest refreshing their browser to get in. Also I'm a huge coh fan. Bk mod forever

The op makes some good points, but as most of you know this is not how Bohemia works. Would they benefit from pretending they are blizzard working on sc2? Maybe, but in this reality most of bi's work is experimentation. I dont think I would need to explain why r&d work has fluctuating, unpredictable deadlines, but basically creating and designing something nobody that you know has done before, is very different than counting how many barrels of fuel are in the company's inventory. That being said I have 2 problems with how dayz is being developed. First, the weapons and gear in general. As the op said, why are we getting retextures and hd models in alpha? I would expect the small objects to look closer to minecraft than their current crysis level of detail. Get all the weapons blocked in and functioning, then make it look good and create dozens of animations for it? Second, contrary to the op's opinion I think the loot management stuff should have been done by now. Dayz is looting and shooting at its core, that should be alpha task #1 like gunfights were. I would not take a refund, it is the most interesting current game project and I plan to stick around to see where it goes.

A link to rocket talking about workshop mods?

With private shards if the whitelist contained only your machine, then it would technically be single player. From what I've seen, they haven't mentioned anything about releasing the server software, which would make anything possible, from 5k vehicle spawns to offline single player. I'm hoping they don't release the server files for a very long time, if at all. But rocket confirmed steam workshop modding is coming. The day that workshop goes live will probably be the day the server list looks identical to the mod.

Itsatrap!

I keep a 357 and 60rnds, and a green fireaxe in my backpack. I want to ditch the pack and use just a high cap vest and keep the axe on my back.

It's probably going to be similar to this http://www.bistudio.com/company/developers-blog/465-roadmap-14-15-dlc-strategy-blog

I think the way it works with a3 is, as they add new mechanics, like weapon sway/shooting from vehicles/more detailed flight controls, they give that to all players for free. While simultaneously they launch a dlc that is basically a training campaign specific to that new mechanic.

This happened to me recently, deleting all battleye files and using the installer from their website fixed it. Hope it works for you.

Lol that guy

Wouldn't it be a clan battle, not war? Haha post some videos I would watch them.

I'm going to start saying this to every player I come across

That looks incredible. Is it flares and lanterns?

Rofl yessss

I looked at some of the other posts in this thread after I typed mine up, a lot are, I shot this at this distance. If you want to talk to people instead of shoot them, I suggest not carrying a rifle. Sure, it has screwed me over plenty of times but the other times it has worked fantastically. One of the times it didn't work out for me... I had just been robbed in elektro (actually made a thread about the robbery some time ago) and found a guy camping the highway. I snuck up behind him, dropped a bunch of stuff and started typing like hey hello buddy, what do you need etc. he looked at me, shot me in the head. Pretty sure he was so stupid that he didn't realize, I had the chance to kill him but didn't

Well... I was in msta looting one of the single door houses. I had a fireaxe, no gun. I turned to the door to leave and see a hoxton mask/fireaxe guy standing in the door, blocking my exit with axe drawn. My mic wasn't plugged in, so I quickly start typing, hey what do you need etc. No response. He just stands there staring. So I start dropping some stuff on the ground. He doesn't move. So I step back a bit. He steps into the house, to the side of the door. Starts leaning towards the door, felt like he was taunting me to try to escape. I decided to test my luck, and somehow walk right past the guy. I goto the back yard of the house, and he follows me with his axe drawn still. I'm pretty sure he saw my fireaxe and had psychotic visions of an axe battle in this little back yard. I left the yard and continued looting, trying to find a backpack. About 30 min later I am looting some random long barn, and when I get to the end of it, there he is. Axe drawn. Just... Breathing. I typed to him again, thank you for not killing me and dropped a pristine orange at his feet (lol!) As I left the barn, he followed me out. I picked a random direction and start sprinting to the forest, looking at him over my shoulder. He followed me for awhile and then all of a sudden I lost him in the trees. TLDR: i found a friendly axe murderer

This guy makes the best posts

When I first started playing dayz mod I was always solo, then got into groups/clans and now I am back to only playing solo. It helps a lot, you learn at your own pace and aren't rushing around to meet up with people. You and your friends would benefit from a few days playing solo. I imagine you'll all find different things, and when you do group up everyone will bring something new to the table. As others have said, this game is only going to get more difficult over time. If the developers put in casual modes or whatever, I can guarantee you a couple months later the entire community will be gone. I personally think zombies, no matter what game/book/show/film, are the most boring piece of fiction man has ever come up with. I'm only here for the challenges dayz provides. Good luck

Nope just in your clothes for now. I think we will see improved zombies and persistent storage before summer is over.

Quote of the day

If you follow them for long enough, you will find the end of the rainbow

If this sale is some sort of unexpected surprise for any of you, welcome to pc gaming! Gaben is king, if he says that a game is on sale, then it's on sale. And trying to get a refund for $3 from them, I really hope that's a joke. In exactly 365 days the 2015 steam summer sale will begin, if you're that cheap then just wait another year.

Every server list since the beginning of time has been like this. I've never seen anyone bitch about it though. This guy is pretty cool.
