I and at least one other guy had that problem on the final 0.57 Exp build. I would encourage you to document the issue on the bug tracker.

Can also confirm that 1 zombie sounds like many. You can always rely on a radio tower for a shovel and a few pair of boots. :)

Correct, the cleanup routine is not working correctly, that is why persistence is off at the moment.

I haven't had any issues. Please elaborate.

Fresh activity on Steam DB site.

Character wipe???

Look at me ... I'm not judging (honest), but there are still some folks who only play in order to go to Cherno and reenact the showdown at the OK Corral. Just because you can't always successfully gear up in Cherno, doesn't mean that you still can't do your OK Corral thing, if you want.

We have activity on the Steam DB site!

Animals are not spawning in the current Exp build. With the CLE, loot is now persistent and loot is unaffected by server restarts. You will find very little loot in high traffic areas. People pick it up, quicker than it re-spawns. This will improve once regional control is introduced. Try to go where others have not been - usually the Northern and Western regions of the map. Once you are geared up, you can go back to the coast. Until / unless you find canned goods, you have to go with plan B: apples, berries, farming, fishing, hunting, banditry (steal from others), cannibalism (eat others). There are many food options besides tins of sardines.

I may have misunderstood his intentions, but it looked to me that he was saying, who needs CLE, when there are already plenty of high loot servers, where one can get geared up. While there are, in fact, servers which are advertised as "High Loot" they do not address the shortcomings of the legacy / place holder loot system. They merely underscore the point that legacy loot is broken and it needs to be fixed. The solution that the devs have adopted is the CLE. I think that many may be concerned that CLE is a step backwards, but this is only the first iteration of CLE. One must first learn to walk, before he can run and that analogy applies to any piece of software, especially one as innovative and complex as CLE.

My observations are similar, although I haven't seen a meat tenderizer. Clubbing someone to death with one of those must be epic! I've only seen a small handful of zeds and since I was carrying around a tent for most of the evening, I was careful to avoid them by using stealthy techniques. Therefore, I'm not sure if they are re-spawning, or not. I am given to understand that the zeds are clustered in the larger towns. The large towns are off limits to me, until I get my Intel machine running again (the rest of my parts arrived yesterday - whoo hoo!).

So, how does a server admin increase, decrease, or otherwise specify what type of loot will spawn on his/her "High Loot Server?" Answer: He/she doesn't. He/she merely reboots more frequently, because the legacy / place holder loot economy is fatally flawed and massively impractical to manage manually.

The status report is out: http://dayz.com/blog/status-report-09-jun-2015 But, there is still no activity on the Steam DB site. So, it looks like no new build tonight, unless the devs are planning on doing another all-nighter.

I had been eating and drinking like a mad man for an hour leading up to the scheduled server restart, so I don't think that it was a server issue in my case. I would suggest that you submit a bug report.

I drank a considerable amount of water and sodas and my thirst status seemed to be working correctly.

I also had an issue with "stuck" status messages yesterday. I would encourage you to submit a bug report.

Remember this ^ I logged back in and now I am lime green Energized and at the bottom LHS corner of the screen, I am getting messages about how I am stuffed and I feel like I am gong to throw up and I think I'm going to throw up. Before I logged out I didn't have any stuffed messages. While I was getting the messages about wanting to throw up, I opened my inventory screen and I didn't have any status messages there about being stuffed. WTF?

That's the hard part! It's all downhill from here!!!

A 980Ti won't help your frame rate any and you surely don't need that much horsepower to make the game look good (in its current incarnation).

I would suggest that you go over to reddit. They'll no doubt agree with you over there.

Perhaps the resin just makes it burn brighter, or longer? Where''s WOBO when you need him?!?!?!

I would have thought that two packs of rice, a box of cereal, a dozen cans of food and two dozen apples would have gotten me bright green but I guess I'm mistaken. I'll try some more.

They have definitely configured a couple more spawn points.

There really is no point in having them, or the first aid kit in the game, if there is no benefit in collecting them.

I'd say it was pretty similar. Did you have to put tree resin on the torch, or is that still optional?
