    0.50 dispersion?

    Isn't the best AK the one that shoots you in the head once? :) <3

    Plans to hotfix 0.50? (Dev reply please?)

    I server hopped quite a few servers last night and they were all looted. Could be the case for the non private as well as non community hosted servers.

    Mosin Rangefinding

    I must be slow, because I found a range finder and can't figure out where it tells you what range the thing you are looking at is.

    New backpack?

    To preface: It was pointed out to me a short while ago that me getting on other users for posting non-stop about cosmetic additions and other functionally worthless shit over bug fixing and gameplay expansion was a little out of place because an Alpha is meant to add content and a beta is meant to fix it. So I apologize to whoever I've offended so far. So to keep in line with the community, and make "alpha-type" suggestions, I wanted to first what people think about the Camo mountain backpack they are thinking about adding/maybe adding to experimental? 1st person issues: can't see behind you and really how much better is this than the current hunting backpack. 3rd person issues: how much better is it, honestly.... Now to my suggestion: Can we get a black backpack!?!?!!?!?!?!? I look so effing stupid with my preferred clothing and a hunting backpack. The large improvised bag looks a little better but still ridiculous. Just let me get a black hunting backpack or be able to paint the courier bag black and I'm good.

    Thoughts on the new .50 Update...

    So....it has no use now. Since all water is safe to drink yes?

    Thoughts on the new .50 Update...

    This sounds really noob-ish. But what exactly do you need water purification tablets for? I should also add in: are we at risk of over heating if we don't drink/cool off after travelling for awhile? I can't wait to jump on tonight and try this shit out!

    What boots are you wearing?

    Thoughts on the new .50 Update...

    I've seen people say combat/jungle/and hiking are the best, no one mentioned military boots. Might have to change out. Also I think this is their way of controlling sprinting indefinitely? I believe if you just jog then they take much less damage. Have not been on to confirm yet. My first course of action is to find duct tape.

    Current persistence in 0.50 patch

    If i would have just said, "you probably don't understand his answer" and left it at that then it would be nicer. Implying that I might be insulting someone is much much less of a dick move than actually insulting someone. I always say what I have to say (or write in this case) with my chest as the saying goes. Reading it back it is way more "dick-ish" than I intended but I'm glad you opened this up because I also think that if you let what someone on the internet you don't even know says affect you personally then that a you issue, not a me issue man. I'll try to keep it less condescending, even if it's in response to some.

    I created a DayZ trading platform

    Understood man. I want to really stress how much I like your idea. I think you should look at the trading post though. The community has been trading a certain way for months. As much as I like, support, and can provide feedback to your system I don't see it replacing the current system unless it offers something completely different or makes the current one more convenient to use. The dayz forum is pretty clunky so hats off to you if you can make it work the way you want now man. I'll use it as long as other people will, I just haven't had much luck trading on your site. I don't mean to downplay or discredit the work you've done, I probably like it the most out of anyone who has seen it, I'm just offering a realistic user perspective to you. Hopefully you take that the right way.

    I created a DayZ trading platform

    I posted in the other thread he created about maybe re-thinking some things. There is already a system in place that is flourishing here on the forums in the "trading post" thread. I love the trading platform site idea but I think it wont gain traction against this forum thread. However, if he could bridge the gap between the two then maybe people will use his platform.

    Current persistence in 0.50 patch

    He understands your question perfectly, you just don't understand his answer. What he meant to say was, " I've had a bad experience or heard of bad experiences with persistence not working in .49 so until it works for sure for everyone, not just you, you shouldn't trust it." To answer your very obvious question. The patch has been out for like 8 restarts. I think you should probably test it and then get back to all of us about it yeah? If it worked in .49, there are no advertised changes so it should be the same in .50. From what I've gathered the bugs around persistence are server based. So if you find one that works, then, uhh.... it works dude. I myself have never tried it; however I'm working with someone to test it out this coming week on some servers. So I'll get back to you next week with more information and hopefully you will understand my answer.

    Good work man. It does look great with the changes; however, there is already a large large large trade thread in which people have been conducting trades with a different type of set up. It's pretty much the same system that you use, but they are able to list everything they have and everything they want because it's a forum thread. Maybe you can combine your system with the way that people have been doing it on the forums for more traction. I feel like if you can bridge the gap between the two the community would standardize your platform.

    .50 tips for lazy non exp players

    TLDR: You are going to tell me to play it and find out. After reading the changelog, I have come up with a couple points. But I'd like to open the floor to anyone willing to tell me exactly how .50 affects my current game life since I never have played experimental: Haven't experienced/am curious about: Gardening: From all accounts the starvation/thirst in experimental was toned up and probably wont be that high in stable so this is necessary or unnecessary? Shoe repair: basically the same question as above, but for shoes not produce. New weapons: Again, not "necessary" right? Just cool new weapons to use right? Minus the shotgun which if I can saw off is clearly going in my bag. Locking/lockpicking: I didn't understand this... only works on persistent servers, or is only persistent on said servers. Do we need something to lock the doors? or just to unlock them. (tools required) Also are all doors lockable? It seems like this is just a cool new thing to do they put in. With only 40 people on a server at the most how feasible is it to lock doors in hot scenarios, honestly. "Metal wire" - curious as to what this is for. Basically I already used to carry food for myself just in case. Now I need to carry duct tape and a leather sewing kit. The new guns don't really impact gunfights at the moment and I'll just have to see whether or not I can ignore locking/unlocking doors for now.

    What exactly qualifies as server hopping?

    It's comical to see people think server hopping in standalone is as bad as server hopping was in the mod. Get over it. It's still not the "correct" or "realistic" way to play but it is definitely not as negatively associated with as it was in the mod. DayZ standalone is just not an expansive enough game to play organically for some people. Loot doesn't respawn. Servers restart every two hours but realistically you only get 40 good minutes in before you catch the restart. This is enough time to spawn at svet and run to the nearest barracks...MAYBE....in time. Why wouldn't you server hop if you want a high powered assault rifle and the high end military gear. Now for me I don't server hop 1 set of barracks every 2 minutes. I run a farming route which takes about 15-30 minutes depending on what I'm farming, then switch servers. This is not the same as what you might commonly refer to as "server hopping" from the mod.

    New backpack?

    Ok so I was never an experimental player but now that my baby is in stable....where do i get it!!!!!!

    Bipod removed?

    I also don't see the blue press vest on any locations in Dayz db. Anyone found one in .49?

    Do we really need more towns?

    I find it funny that there are complaints about map density being too high already and adding town would "clutter" even more; however if you log onto servers you rarely see someone outside of the big coastal cities, maybe catch some action at NWAF, and might run into someone else server hopping if you are server hopping yourself. I get that you are angry that the building will probably look the same. That's annoying. But stop trying to take the premise that the map is too small and too cluttered right now because it really isn't. If you spent 8 hours running from Vavilovo, to the new tents out west, down to Zelenogorsk, and ended at Kamenka. Then server hopped and ran back up my guess is that you would see maybe 3-4 people. But if you spent 8 hours going from Cherno to Berezhino you would see 40-100. The "density" you speak of is a product of a few things. 1. Lack of gameplay options. 2. Server population being so low. 3. No vehicles. 4. (and the biggest reason) The community dictates which parts are the most dense. I fully expect that once 1-3 are addressed that the dev team will be required to have already or at the same time: expand the map with islands or distance/wilderness and revamp buildings or risk people losing interest and stop playing.
