I bet you're a real joy to have around at parties.

I've driven cars close to submerged vehicles with varied results (approximately 20 of them). If they're buried deep and you can't see the wheels, the car will be ruined. Smoke will billow out of it and have the red dot indicator. If the car is partially submerged, it will pop out but will leak fuel during operation. A lot. Like, you'll have to stop at every other gas station. I always stay in the car, put it in neutral, leave it running, and hold down the brake. Eventually it will stop and return to the surface of the map. Haven't died yet this way. Once it settles, put it in first and tap the gas to move very slowly. It will usually work itself out. The network bubble is real. Drive slower in cherno/electro. Not so much of an issue near Zvir. Yea. You can't drive off into the debug area like you could before .63. Haha. For sure. I made up a similar rule: "If you get distracted by loot and jump out to early, it's your own fault that you died. Take the door off at your own risk." Rarely, however, have I seen people die outside of the first couple of times we figured out the submerged ADA issue. Many times, when the car has a seizure, it only appears to be client-side. Often passengers see nothing abnormal.

I found them hard to trigger once activated. When it did go off it did little damage. Broken limbs aren't a reality, so all that happened was slight health loss. Landmines were plenty lethal but didn't seem to damage cars at all.

Does that link look scary? Is that your question? Yes.

Sounds like rubberbanding. Most likely to happen in DayZ when there are more players and players with higher ping. Also happens more often on terrain/structures that the nav-mesh isn't finely tuned. You'll notice that you can't connect with melee or perform actions with items laying on the environment. Network issue. Maybe this??

i see one zed, noisy and watching and loud outside barn he twitch and moan with spit but shovel guy dig for sea chest endowed my precious is blinding, worry for life: disallowed! good trap i lay for forum nitwit.

What happens when I get the bug where my weapon disappears and the only way I know how to make it reappear is to re-log? I mean, it's really hard to aim-down-sights when your gun totally vanishes from the game, except when in the inventory. Who's fault is it then? Perhaps my ISP is being terrible? Maybe there's a family emergency at a time that's inconvenient for the person who's trying to kill me? Maybe we should have bound-to-server ammo? How would the game identify combat logging? And if you do set tolerances to define combat logging, people will surely find a way to exploit that. At any rate, whatever solution seems best will undoubtedly screw over some other innocent gamer, it seems, which is a shame.

Well, an update. So, I logged onto a community public server near a base I'd been working on at 11am (my time) and, as expected, saw the red text at 11:10a. I lost 'connection' to the server. I was the only one on the server. Came back after the server was back up. Only the cars survived. So, I should assume that these scheduled restarts are not always shutting down gracefully and/or something else is at play.

what?? Oh, so because I play dayz on PC I'm not allowed to post here? That's the argument that you're going with? No, the xbox version doesn't get it's own experimental update thread. Duh. And you still don't understand what's going on. Those items are not spawning in xbox OR official servers on pc. But, just like the developers have said, they do work! It's entirely possible that people can make mods, include those items, and have them work just fine!! The announcement wasn't specific to xbox! So it doesn't apply to xbox users. Related, it's pretty clear that the community manager, who is not one of the developers, copy and pasted all of the information from PC to xbox status. Would it be so hard to figure this out before an enormous amount of hours were invested into figuring it out the hard way? Developers said items are working = true. Developers said items are naturally spawning in the game = false. You've already explained that English isn't your first language. I've explained the significance of the word choice used. You still don't understand. Can someone figure out what this troll's mother language is and explain to him in words he can understand? Please?

No, no it was not. Here's a link. This is where all the experimental update threads go. NOT specific to xbox at all. Additionally, it makes no sense that they would ever have an xbox only experimental patch thread. That has never been the way. Again, you can see that the developers added the functionality of those items. Nowhere does it indicate that those items will be spawning in-game. Nowhere does it indicate that the information is xbox specific. Stop making up shit. This is an English language forum. It's not the developers fault that your mother tongue is not English. The company wasn't lying to you based on the fact that you don't comprehend English.

Bummer. Unfortunately, the original statement wasn’t Xbox specific.

The developers didn't say that they're currently spawning. They said that the items work as intended. Working and spawning are two totally different things. Try going into offline mode. Find a mod with these items. They work!!

I have no idea if they are graceful or not. Typically, users rejoin and then continue doing what they were doing without too much bother. I should assume that there's something I'm probably missing and purposefully avoided speculating as to why servers were crashing in my last post here.

This is why he's the best player in DayZ right now. There's no actual moral consequences, despite the laughable social-experiment-pipe-dream it was originally based on. And I agree. The advice would be much more effective concentrated if it was collected all into one spot.

Large swaths of gameservers.com community-public servers reset at the same time, every day. I can expect gameserver machines to feed me this red text every single time at 11:10 and 23:10 (my time) on a regular basis. Usually, if I'm on one of their servers near this time I'll get out of any car I may be driving because if I don't, I'll have to run a good 300 meters in the direction I was traveling previously, to find my car. It's pretty consistent.

Check out the latest experimental branch update thread. Looks like they are aware and are focused on it! The lack of response is quite understandable! Imagine the flaming that would happen if they were on the forums updating information. "YOU GUYS SHOULD BE WORKIN' ON THE GAME AND NOT TROLLING US ON THE FORUMZ!!!" /shrug

No idea why pilgrim* is feeding the troll here. It would be different if said troll was at least witty or entertaining in some way, but that's not the case.

holy thread necro. You realize this is the arma2 subforum for the dayz mod, jah? It's great that you performed a search for this topic. Somehow, you missed the one that was a day old, also in the appropriate section.

Sorry, underground bases will never happen. Devs have already explained why.

I opened a restaurant IRL. Decided that I'd only serve customers once. You get one hamburger, then you're banned for life. It's been great. Total marketing geniusry. Banning someone after their first visit is a great way to retain customers. You should totally do it, Survivor1431. Rent your own server and just kick people off of it. WORTH IT.

First you group up 5 sticks. You have to cycle through recipes, typically by left clicking to select which recipe you want. Then hold LMB to craft. edit: oh wait, this is xbox forum. I dunno. works fine for the keyboard people.

The OP specifically asked for haters NOT to reply, yet here you are choppinbroccoli and MaxwellHouse69420. Not everybody is interested in hearing your whining. There's plenty to do, you just have to have some imagination. This isn't some game where you can min/max. There's no line in the ground for you to follow. Sometimes it takes effort to figure out what you want to do. People who are bored are boring. Try interacting with other people.

Hmm. Not a whole lot you can do on a public hive, I reckon. A person can easily respawn with any number of items + F11. You can't box them in effectively if they can server hop to get out of it. You can''t restrain them because it enables the ability to respawn through the interface. Legs don't really break. Not a lot of options to make miserable people miserable, unfortunately. Sometimes I wish actions could be tied to a steam account and people held accountable for their action, but alas, anyone can be nameless and have no morals in a simulation where there's no consequences.

Why not just leave the bag out? And shoot the interloper? Unless you're a fresh spawn. But, if you're a fresh spawn, then you're on the coast. And if you're doing this on the coast, why are you trying to ambush other fresh spawns for loot? lol

Maybe it would be helpful if we could set items to hotbar, while in the inventory screen, with the number of the key, by hovering over the item. For example, you have a stone knife in your backpack. You hover your pointer, while in the inventory, over your stone knife. You tap "2". Hotbar "2" is now set to stone knife.
