Increased social media activity regarding Dayz lately. Maybe something happening soon? :)

Good topic. Puts these projects into right perspective. I bet they all ate lots of "kampaviineri" (pic below) and many cups of bad coffee.

0.63_BETA going to Experimental is going to blow the Internet. Status report that gives hope and makes the waiting game even longer, if that's possible. Starting to feel same kind of excitement that was on when waiting standalone to hit steam store. Don't really have any other game at the moment, that i want to play daily. Started to play Deus Ex: Mankind Divided second time from the start to fill my gaming needs. Great game and set in Prague ;) But i would prefer waiting in the dayz server lobby to get into 0.63 experimental server anytime.

Unless the eyezoom is not a game breaking bug, why remove it? It's a BIS trademark as someone said. Same as Freelook. Both very handy when playing first person. But if removing zoom is the only way to get rid of that anoying texture flickering when zooming in and out. Then i kinda understand why it needs to go. I could live with that. But damn it would feel weird not having it in Dayz. As for 0.63. going experimental... wait is starting to feel too loooooooong.

The version is 0.62.142080 and works fine here. 178.7MB download.

Hope Hicks will be back in business at some point. I think he and his passion for the project was one of the main reasons why players kept believing Dayz after Rocket left. But can't blame the guy for needing some personal time, if that's the case. Who wouldn't. So many years gone and still more to come before the game is playable for the larger public. And constat bashing and pressure in social media sure is grazy in this modern world. Anyway i think it's normal that people are worried when Creative Director of the Dayz-project isn't around when it's going BETA.

Sounded like BIS guys had more then one beer. :) Nice informative video. So many things to wait.

Nice pics and vids from camescom. ^^ I quess the moderators are also at CameCom.

I hope we get to see the gamescom demo stuff in experimental before Gamescom? :) Anyway finally something big to look forward to.

Bad move with server browser. Casual players can't find their favourite private servers now. I refer to this https://feedback.bistudio.com/T125986 Maybe small thing to some. But then again it's just the kind of little thing that makes you choose another game from your game list, if you think your favourite server is down. Sure it's still alpha and people get used to it. But without the dayzspy i wouldn't have found my favourite stable branch server.

4 peole on the server and i get shot at while driving sedan ffs why?. ^^ I found a bus and two sedans. All drivable. From Berezino to nwa in no time. :) No crashes. No performance problems. But then again, there is only 4 people on the server. edit. And YES! No crash when closing the game.

Had a weird bug. Could't take anything into my hands. Reconnect solved that problem. But never had that before. UK 0-4.

My first crash since 0.62. started. x64.exe. If you don't count the crash that happens every time you exit the game with 64bit version. I was running in the rain. Game was very stuttery from the start. Just few minutes ago on that test server from Baty's post. edit. ah it wasn't x64 this time.

New colours at night. Damn how far have we come from that "everything is grey at night". you are walking through red forest...

Love the new colours. Night time birds still too chirpy for my taste. Birds sleep too?

810 MB omg omg omg. Downloading now. :)

It's jungle out there. :) No i haven't been in real life jungle. But doesn't it sometimes feel like you hear birds that live in a tropic. Instead of eastern-europe autumn forest. Anyway the sounds. Didnt have time to test the night sounds. But the daylight sounds have changed yes. No more constant humming. More like variety of different birds singing every now and then separately. Pretty loud some of them. But i guess thats how it is in real life too. It was almost silent when i was at black castle. But then i had the full glory of nature sounds at nearest town. Not sure yet if this is better then the previous version. That's for sure, that these new (0.62)sounds have been better then the old arma sounds. No matter how they are tweaked.

I really hope this never happens on public servers. It takes now almost an hour to get into desent loot/player hot zones. If they make the game any slower, there will be very few players left to play this game when it goes gold. Mod's and private servers for this kinds of hc-experienses plz. Let's keep the playing fun.

Finally found the damn castle. And not long after that i was shot dead at one of the deerstands. (nice shot) while i was busy killing wolves. :(

Walking in the air. I knew Dean can climb mountains but fly? Gimme my kiwi.

Some yellow clouds again. damn this game just looks too nice now. cant resist taking screenshots all the time.

Tere. Temperatures are about the same in earlier builds. But yea i think the gpu fan might run a bit faster since 0.62 and the new visuals. ( 1060 6Gb OC ) Maybe you got dust in the fans or summer heat makes the temperatures rise? :)

Well that was a nice 2 hours at very rainy UK 01. Thanks for the bus. It was left engine on middle of the road near Mogilevka. Managed to drive it to Tisy. btw there's a door problem at big yellow houses. Would have made a ticket, but feedback tracker was acting strange now. Would't let me upload pics. And was very slow.

Nature ambient sounds inside the buildings/towns are way too loud. I dont see the sound problem when you run in the forests, fields, meadows and so on. I get that the ambient sounds change when you come in to new area? From forest to meadow. From field to town etc. But thing that i dont understand. Why ambient sounds go so loud when you get into the town? Shouldn't it be... more buildings ----> less animals, less nature ---> less nature ambient?

Damn this game looks amazing now.
