"Dev Update/Martin Hi everyone! While on the PC side of things, we're in full bug fixing mode, our Xbox Survivors are still waiting for the big update to drop. As we detailed in our Xbox Development Briefing, if things go well, we'd like to release the Basebuilding & Vehicles game update on Xbox this Thursday. This is still with a disclaimer as we'll be going through the final stage of testing tomorrow, but even if we discover some specific issues, this update will still be the biggest Xbox update of DayZ since we launched in Game Preview." https://dayz.com/blog/status-report-20-november-2018

Guess it's friday then...

Ummm...it's a BETA, just release it. It's not like we don't know it will be full of bugs and random crashes. Release

But we are.... In our new base, with chicken on a stick, over a fire.

And so will Bohemia. They got two Xbox exclusive games, Dayz (apart from PC) and Vigor. Both of them have a very low player base as of now. DayZ are coming to PS4 Q1 2019 and it wont be pretty.. look at PUBG, in 3 weeks it's out on ps4. Based on player views it does not look good for PUBG on ps4. I believe the majority of console owners are fed up with buggy, broken alpha and beta versions of games, fed up with lies, lazy developers, the non-transparacy, the hefty pricetags and so on.... We've seen studios crash and burn, lawsuits and so on.

Logged on at peak times this saturday. One server had 23 players and the rest ranged from 5-1 player... They are killing this game without even knowing it. They should first learn how the console players mindset is and how demanding we are. We are more than 120 million console players spread across 3 major consoles, we take shit from no developers. Screw us once...

Nope, they need to test it throughly before gold status so they can't release a patch that have not been tested in a live environment a week before gold. We will see it in a few weeks or the latest by mid january.

Really? A few months into 2019? Guess you missed the info about 1.0/Gold Q1 2019. Mentioned in several dev blogs, here is one: https://www.bohemia.net/blog/dayz-is-out-now-on-xbox-game-preview

Glad to hear others get annoyed by the title screen wind. Hurts my ears when using headphones.

Ok...a step in the right direction. How short is night? Changed rain time aswell? When will we get server name/number added so we can see it once we connected? (Online > players) Edit* Server name is now added ??

Try walk out in the woods with a flashlight.....alone. That is some intense shit "The appearance of night time is just a matter of server settings, not a missing feature. Right now, servers are starting at 9 AM server time and running until 2 PM before restarting at 9 AM. We will change the server settings eventually to share the darker side of DayZ with you... but be warned, it's going to be really dark"

Yeah! Imagine that..ha!

I believe so. With absolutly no content added, RDR2 released, BFV in a couple of weeks and so on...i doubt the devs will think it's neccesary to have 300 empty servers. Sorry to say it, but there is nothing to do in this game...other than jog down to elektro and kill/die.

Yep, happens all the time for me. Also...crashes often in inventory when i'm moving things. A freez and i'm forced to restart the game.

?

https://dayz.com/blog/status-report-23-october-2018 Awesome! And some said a map will break the immersion even though they are looking at a map in a app.

I tend to agree...it's a tad too much really. Darkness AND rain for a couple of hours is discouraging. Even switching server and it's the same thing. A third server and it's no rain...but pitch black. Don't get me wrong..i love day/night cycle and weather effects. Just would like to see the sun and a clear sky a bit more often.

Woah...what just happened with the quote there?

That is narrow minded. I been critizing a lot in this game...why do i bother? Because i love the game. If i hated it i would not spend a second here. You don't see me in WoW forums bashing the game and complaining. Why is that? Because i don't like it...then i don't care. Everyone here, argueing, getting mad etc. do it BECAUSE they enjoy the game, telling them to go play something else is like trying to revive a zombie with two bulletholes in the skull....

I been critizing BI a lot...but when they do good i'm the first to praise.

So if i would play 8 hours straight i would play 24h cycle in Dayz? (8*3) And more night playtime than day playtime could be discouraging for a lot of players. Especially since we don't have nightvision, flashlights drain batteries, crafting torches takes time and equipment. But i dig it a lot.

I had clear nights with the moon illuminating the surroundings. I played on a server that went from dark to real fucking dark an hour later. Also..depends on where you are obviously.

Aha ok, now i'm with you.

I can see around 25 meters in front of you in that clip. Looks about the same when i'm playing on my tv. So it seems to be correct.

Ok, then we know. Thanks
