0.63 Developer Live Stream - 14th March 2018
sneakydude replied to Baty Alquawen's topic in News & Announcements
I have to ask? anyone not notice the freezing again without infected? must be beta testing on a 286 or we still have broken or the same old scripts running like sqf? still.... To me its looking much better, but it is a huge step backwards starting all over in the beginning again. UI has been rehashed too many times, basic crafting rehashed too many times etc.. but we are in a step forward now. Good twitch. Keep it up and in the next few months we might have .48 come around again-stages. -
Modding brings together the community, even if its pure pve or pvp. It also can extend the life of the "End Game" of a game that has been out as long as Dayz has. Arma 3 by itself has said it is rather dull and boring. Not until things came out like Epoch, Exile etc.. and many other type mods we wouldn't have the popular games like King of the hill, pub g etc.. all of those do stem from the arma modding community. I wouldn't doubt it Arc and Conan looked into the sandbox from arma at one time. I have no facts on this but much has been discussed over the years about modding in arma etc..

Sucka Die! New Latin Proverb for those who are over hyped. LMAO (and didst cost me a dime to get that major degree) -
This time i hope the devs that do the modding clearly understand the bridge issues between the modders and the community that mod. There was some pretty heavy issues that pushed modders to the extreme, and or out of the scene. Maybe dayz will not be as heavy i do not know.
-
Remember when arma was released? Well arma is a vanilla game, today arma would not be what it is without modding. True story too. BI will probably say the same.

No hype here, just waiting to see concrete info if its getting released anytime soon. Soon meaning in the next couple months. -
Great question, when i tried to do the arma 3 exile mod i tried to reduce it for 1 every max sectors. It wasn't the same as dayz. Fix and repair. I know you guys have an arma 3 server rolling so how many vehicles do you have populating the server? HIHB server can reduce the numbers, and force the players into a more walking sim, then again it depends on how you guys want it to go like., More survival, or more mixed? Your vision may come true depending on how you lay out the server. Doesn't have to be Arma 3 all over. In time i bet arma 4 will be out, maybe not who knows how bi will go now.

Is fixing gamma exploit even possible? Any plans for it?
sneakydude replied to Rekurv's topic in General Discussion
We know 2 things atm when it comes to the dark. 1. PVP gamma exploit to pvp or to pve, avoid the pvp players or simply loot up safely. 2. gamma exploit to see the game. So how many people do this? MANY... we know that. How many want a complete pitch black experience? we do not know that. So maybe we should ask everyone do they really care? or is it something the devs care more on. Otherwise id just leave it alone and let the mods script in their own version of pitch black. -

Then they need to remove server hoping as it relates to weather then the dark sky. (Ppl hate playing games for more then 10 minutes in the dark). If we are getting authentic skys lets just fix all the bugs first and get all the features in before we fix all the rest. Not sure how the mod went, and if people scripted out the black skys for over 10 minutes. Pushing it too much will just isolate vanilla even further. Is it a fact? dont know we have never really tested this before. Is it a fact people hate the raining all day on the servers? yes..... and they will server hop on public or private slaves. How many? many numbers will dwindle fast because you freeze out, get wet, cant do anything in the rain. (populated servers start to fold down then server hoping starts) This all goes way way back prior to this engine. So without the old numbers, the amount of people playing that we used to have, its hard to really comment past what i remember vs tomorrows game state will be like. Plus hopefully they remove the rain from all crafting buildings. That's more a feature players would want...like the mods in arma etc... -
Just have to hope the engine is good for AI, and it runs smoothly. We do not need a re run of laggy games, or taking AI out like we did in Arma 3 engine, and Dayz. Both showed we could not run a sandbox style very good with scripts. Headless clients worked ok for some hosts, but it was a pain to setup. IF we want more infected, could headless clients be allowed here too? I would only hold your breath on the engine at this stage and hope they add in the rest of the proposed assets, and features. At this stage of the SR i have no idea what is true and what is fiction.

Thinking about buying, but steam reviews
sneakydude replied to Oscar_Syx's topic in General Discussion
14 days in product games list, and 2 hours game time max or they will not refund you. Its a policy that people have been trying to get repaired for yrs now. Its their policy and just doing updates suck up game time. Overlays etc cause it to be logged in such as Discord overlays. There was a bug or whatever that kept you logged in. Point being 2 hrs isn't enough to even see the UI lol they got you by a small stick. -

sneakydude replied to Oscar_Syx's topic in General Discussion
Not exactly a good way to advise , put it that way, because dayz is a good game but it is no where near complete to what is being done. Refunding, re buying ok if you wish to go that route. If you want 100+ hrs give it a go, otherwise wait until .63 is out. The price may increase once beta is around, you may have a week or two before that happens, but to buy refund before 2 hours is up, is not enough time to explore the game. This isn't a pubg game, it takes time to look around the map. I understand Benedictus you been around a long time, but i am sorta surprised you suggested it that way, knowing how much time 2 hours will get you in the game. 2 hrs hardly gets you to the north, unless it is you and I playing. We know where to go quickly given the current state, but someone new? Coast, water, city game purchased you now cant refund..... -
Aye, just in time we will be able to explore more of those features. By what i been seeing in SR i think it will be very different in the end to what we where playing in the past. Get us basically out of Experimental is what i am hoping for.
-
So much truth, the misfits are a great group of guys, some of which i got to know more over my time there. Would recommend this for pvp or other event servers. If your still playing and or not playing give it a try. PVP fun times, and many of the players are not laxed on pvp experience either. I haven't had the chance to meet too many other groups in Dayz, hopefully things change in .63 and it opens up more for interactions or just plain old pvp - pve fun times.

Your just lucky the ole boys aren't playing much....... Soonish we will plan some whoopass again on you guys. Chalk it up as Opps! :)

DayZ Standalone Base Building is almost here! How do you plan to use it?
sneakydude replied to DR. IRISHMIKE's topic in General Discussion
Yeah you guys at one time had a huge base going of just tents. I remembered you mentioning this a few months back. Are you still doing that? or is it in the RP server. I remembered it on Experimental there was something you all got together doing. I see it as whatever makes it fun, do it. Nothing wrong with messing around with the bases until we get more in .63-1.0 -
DayZ Standalone Base Building is almost here! How do you plan to use it?
sneakydude replied to DR. IRISHMIKE's topic in General Discussion
Truly inspiring with just the basics. I know there was some videos out there with so many more assets, but that will most likely be designed now from the modding people. I wouldn't expect the devs to create a huge load of assets like arma 3 has. -

sneakydude replied to DR. IRISHMIKE's topic in General Discussion
I am sure there will be lots of RP servers. Once we know more and once we get lots more ideas in Modding. -
Did someone modify the files? Report it if so. Glad baty saw this post.

sneakydude replied to Oscar_Syx's topic in General Discussion
Listen to this one, There is a huge pause almost over with as the beta is coming out. Nothing stopping you from giving it a go, but quite a few of us are waiting for .63 now so we can move forward to release. -
Has hacking been fixed on DayZ standalone?
sneakydude replied to zigglr's topic in General Discussion
Also people keep thinking that BE bans in waves, this is not true at all its constant. Devs at BE addressed this in a email to me prior to stomp those rumors out. Cheats are created all the time, and BE updates all the time. It is only 1 measure in a list of many the BI are working with BE on. So BE bans are usually when a cheat goes viral and people start to purchase it. Little do they know Poof, cya account. Don't be fooled that those servers wont get you instant banned either.... I do not work for BI but all those years in gaming you tend to know your stuff. Just dont be on the end of the ban stick, your account looks like crap to recruiting clans etc... they do not take you serious. -
Been having a hard time finding it, i have a very old bookmark but i dont know if that even is part of the code or is something bi had used then scraped. Hard to tell.

Inventory wipe of all players carrying unreleased items
sneakydude replied to Baty Alquawen's topic in News & Announcements
My best guess is US bases all over the world, bringing items what they could by heli then running out of Fuel. Could be UN, Could be NATO.. -
I understood it right after the heli spawn system placed in, they where revamping it for the new engine. Plus people exploited the m4?? remember that and it was taken out, repaired. Used a bug to bug the community LOL Anyways, they wanted to make the heli stuff special, more then just some arma mod where it spawns, shows up on the map. Best guess from remembering the old heli stories, Sr stuff, dev, mod reports etc...
