BI... toss the useless Battleye. Use this! https://anybrain.gg/ It detects ESP!!! And oh so much more. The Anti-Cheat DayZ needs.

As was just asked, when do we get parity with the state of the game pre Enfusion? I'd narrow this question down to "What year do we get parity with the state of the game pre Enfusion?" The change to allow this game to be played on consoles was absolutely TERRIBLE. You can say, well, it extends the life of the game, blah, blah, blah. Look at the damn result. This game on console is an absolute mess. It was never meant to run on that hardware, and it plays terrible. I own DayZ on both XBOX and PS 5, and vanilla sucks compared to PC, just sucks. It is clear it was hamfisted to just barely work, thank you Tencent. And what it did to the game on the PC side sucks as well. Thanks to the new (console needed) Character Controller, the movement of the character is just stupid. The zeds are a minor nuisance and don't really MEAN anything, they are like rats scurrying around, and you swat them a few times with a broom and they die. All to make it not too hard for the casuals. In short, it's not just things/features, the game changed a lot AFTER the one month Beta and release and went in a direction nobody wanted or needed. And another thing, I have noticed how quickly official responses come to console players reporting issues in the forum, and less so on the PC side. I wonder why this is?

All I or anyone else that bought into early access is to be given the game "sold" to us. They have yet to deliver that game. And just because this game is released does not mean it's complete. This game above all others is an example of how that happens. It may be ok for some that want a half finished game missing features that were stripped away and told they would return before release, that DID NOT HAPPEN, nor several years after it's release. Or features like vehicles that were working good until a design change was implemented with very little follow through, and they are still unstable as compared to before the change. Or how about the overall change to the game to cater to consoles and casuals. All of these things add up to a mess that most people would describe the game. It's a fun mess, but a mess no less. I want the game to be great and for the company to DO BETTER. I use the feedback tracker as well, but there are so many legitimate unanswered tickets it's shameful. Again, look at Hello Games, they are the standard by which I judge all other game companies including BI. They took a turd, and polished it into a Diamond. I expect BI to do the same.

I wholeheartedly disagree. The history of this game is riddled with "The Company" giving false information, removing player wanted features/equipment/weapons, missing stated goals and deadlines, adding unneeded "stuff", and oh so much more over the last seven years. And your expectation is for those that bought the game, love the game, and want it's best to just be quiet and act like everything is roses? "The Company" put itself into this position and we are expected to not call out "The Companies" problems and demand better? I've been around the block a time or two and anytime I hear someone wanting to shut down criticism that is DESERVED and warranted. That is someone sitting behind rose colored glasses and really needs to take stock in what is being said here. Seriously.

So why not just the kill the forums and be done with it? That's your ultimate goal anyway.

Little did we know that the "I UNDERSTAND" button was nothing more than a meme. 4+ years Alpha, 1 month Beta, then release. I cannot name any other game in history that has done that. Hell, I cannot think of ANY software publisher that has ever done that. And this is the debacle we continue to swim in.

Stop creating duplicate accounts because you are too scared to state your opinion under your primary. One of the rules of this forum is to not have duplicate accounts, the moderators have been informed.

Is it even possible to deliver a patch that has been tested and vetted before pushing to stable? I mean it's only been 7+ years to get the processes down to a science. I'm willing to forgive some issues, but it's every patch, and now the hotfixes are breaking things. You guys should really spend this entire year fixing the absolute slanderous backlog of bugs in the feedback tracker, I mean the whole year. But that's wishful thinking on my part, my right hand is full of crap and my left hand is empty as usual.

Ummm... no. https://feedback.bistudio.com/T158378

It's still a bug, two years old.

Another absol;utely stupid bug that has been in the game over 2 years is the cursed magazine. So on modded servers if you spawn in fresh with a weapon in hand that has a magazine loaded, you cannot use the reload shortcut, that magazine is "cursed". You have to manually swap the mag out, and heaven forbid you keep the cursed mag in your inventory, because now that you can use the reload shortcut, if you put the cursed mag back in your weapon, you are back to square one. PLEASE FIX THIS! https://feedback.bistudio.com/T158378

Oh great, they released another "not very well thought out" mechanic!

For years our community rented instances and servers and paid thousands and thousands of dollars. Once I got fiber, I wised up and custom built a machine for 900 bucks that will last us for years, and thank GOD I did, because if I were a server owner right now renting a dedi or dayz instance, I would have the red ass 10X over. The browser fail makes the piss poor excuse we have for vehicles look amazing. It's still irritating, but at least my community is not out money because BI can't get their shit together.

I like how they said "here's the plan for 2023.... oh sorry, we can't divulge most of these plans, but be prepared for more hats and zombies that do stuff, we can't tell you what that stuff is, but you best be prepared!" You can always count on BI to be on point with messaging.

Stability update? OOF! You guys can't stop inserting your foot in your mouth. The browser is BAF! Talk about killing your community. I know you guys are aware, but come on, this is just sad.
