    Xbox DayZ Experimental Is Awesome

    I personally haven't had much De-Sync since the release of 1.08.........But i'm primarily a Solo player so tbh without another player to tell me if what I see in my hands is what I think it is lol. So i cant for sure give feedback on that. I do know that player bubbles seem to massively effect it, the more players close together the worse the De-Sync. I absolutely love the base building changes, bases are actually viable now! But by far the worst edition is the poor FPS since 1.08, i'm on an Xbox One & i've actually had to step away from the game on occasion as the extreme head bob plus 20fps equals chunder time.
  2. The arrival of Xbox Experimental servers in the for off an Exp App for console is an awesome & welcome addition. I have been playing it loads & I hope with maybe an addition in the bug reporting section specifically for for the Exp console branch that this will drastically reduce the amount of bugs that come across from Exp to stable then to console. More bug reports equals better info for the Devs, which is great. Found a fairly big bug with Cooking Pots, if you log out & back in again. It deletes the storage contents of the pot, not sure if it does it with any other containers such as dry bags, plastic containers, etc. So good work to @Sumrak & the team.

    Nails Nails Nails !

    I think they've reduced nails spawn with 1.08, I cant confirm but feels like there rarer especially up north, makes sense as they want to discourage people stashing in crates & they've increase nail cost for those too.
  4. The game is very tough for new players, the best tips I can offer is use Izurvive to find potential animal spawns near the coast, always listen out for chickens as theyll sustain you until you find something more substantial. Also the biggest tip is learn the trails (Trails are shown on the Trail map on Izurvive) trails & train tracks spawn small stones, collect two, hold one in your hand & look at the other on the floor & it'll let you craft a stone knife. This will save your life as quite often the game will give you an animal before you find a knife. The spawn drops for food on dead Zombies & in natural spawn points has been reduced a lot since release, just keep in mind its a hardcore survival game. the environment should be as deadly as other survivors. Keep plugging away & trust me eventually you'll be a DayZ pro & you'll forget how hard it was & wish it was harder.

    Xbox one x. Really badd fps??

    Unfortunately this update really tanked FPS in large cities or when certain weather effects are in action like the wind or you enter another players network bubble, etc. TBH you were probably lucky to get a solid 30-40 on Xbox One X before the update. Just hang in there dude, im sure an upcoming hotfix will sort it. Welcome to the DayZ community.

    Guns

    West sides best for Heli crashes. I found 2 today & got 2 VSS's. Not a great gun but shreds armour as an up close destroyer. Unfortunately M4's & AKM's wont spawn on most servers at military bases as 2 many are stashed on the server. Wait a week or two for all those stashed crates to de-spawn from all the people stashing unnecessarily then never playing the game again. 1.08 changed there de-spawn timer thank god & upped there nail cost.

    frying pan sickness

    did you forget to wash your hands after cutting up the animal? If so that will give you food poisoning, charcoal tabs should sort it if so. only thing I can think of, ive used the pan & it didnt make me sick. hope this helps

    Tree stash’s broken

    just keep in mind that Crates despawn without interaction much faster now, 2 weeks I think & they take more nails to build. Id recommend building bases now for stashing loot as going through a few walls will take like 600 AR rounds. So a decent base in a building with multiple gates will basically put off all raiders.

    Console Update 1.08

    Love the game & the additions to base building in 1.08. But unfortunately the Frame rate has taken a giant hit, if its windy in game i'm getting 20fps or lower. Its actually giving me motion sickness to play, the extreme head bop mixed with low fps is super close to making me hurl. Also had a lot of issues with building, not being able to complete walls, would be useful if it simple wont let you place a fence kit where you cant completely finish a wall. Quite often there is nothing blocking building it simply wont give the option. Loving the communication from Bohemia & the Dev team, Sumrak is doing great job as project lead. Baty was a beast at comms but the reduced team now are on it. So even though its a bit buggy, I understand that most of this update was done from home during Lockdown. So GG, hopefully the frames can get some TLC though soon as Im sitting with a bucket next to my sofa just to play lol.

    Experimental Update 1.08

    Anyone else noticed that the stamina penalty for weapons & armour seems to have been dropped a lot. I had a full inventory with three weapons & a press vest with 80% stamina. Im not complaining as it was over due a balancing pass for sure, now hopefully theyll further reduce sway when not holding breath as thats still way to much & the change in stamina drainage seems like all itll do is cause confusion, cant we just have steady stamina drain.

    Experimental Update 1.08

    Ive reported this bug already but figured id leave it here also for the benefit of the community. Just a little one but if you re-log on Exp branch console or PC with a cooking pot in your inventory, it will delete any contents of said cooking pot. tested it & it occurs 100% of the time. Also the lighting needs a little tweek, the god rays when looking at the sun are crazy visually obscurring now. lots of nice texture/lighting changes in barns though and overall nice daytime lighting. But the Nights are way too bright in 1.08, i can see exceptionally far without NVG's & could walk through woods at night easily. defintely needs nerfing again.

    Experimental Update 1.08

    Awesome, changes to the Arena & Ski Resort area, nice to see these being developed further as it felt empty in that NW region. The changes to base building are by far the most meta changing additions though & very welcome in my book. Hopefully the wall/tower health has been set very high so that you still cant break in very quickly unless you have a lot of grenades & ammo . At least this way base raiders will draw much more attention when raiding now. also moving the bard wire slot on walls to the inside is a fantastic change. no more snipping it off from the outside hopefully. GG devs 👍
  13. @dmorrison1997the discord link no longer functions also, just to let you know
  14. I like the sound of the server & will definitely give it a look, some great server changes listed here. I'm assuming there's methods to report rule breaking in respects to base raiding, KOS at green mountain & other rule breaking on the discord? Also is streaming from said server acceptable? Will White listing be considered to vet potential players in the future to further help protect the server community? Thank you in regards to any response.

    Tanned leather

    its not in the console or PC version, there both exactly the same feature vise. You may have seen it implemented on a modded PC server, but its not been reintroduced from the 0.63 version since the new engines launch. hope this helps, I think at one point you could create leather using the barrels lime and animal pelts but the option for crafting leather clothing & items was not available.

    State of the 1.07 Console Issues

    Servers are crashing every 10 mins, literally unplayable. I appreciate the teams hard work & quick communication with the player base but this is pretty bad. How does this get past QA?
  17. TheYetiBum

    Console Update 1.07

    Is this on Official or Community servers & definitely on Xbox right? I Still havent found any ammo or a repeater & im on Official Xbox Servers. Ive literally looted ever town on the map since the update.

    Please Help!

    Find a knife (or craft a knife from two stones, found on trails,train tracks, etc) find an animal, chickens spawn in civilian areas on the coast, kill said animal & chop it up with the knife Craft a fire and cook the meat you have gathered on a long stick Voila you have extended your life Once you get more accustomed to the game mechanics dealing with food wont be as much of an issue, remembers goats & cheap can be dealt with easily with only a hatchet, sledge hammer, etc. And cooking pots connected to a stove top & gas canister in your inventory is always a good idea for cooking food fast on the go leaving less of a footprint for other survivors to find. If you need help with crafting fires or any crafted item or simply want more in depth info on all game items then go here https://dayz.gamepedia.com/DayZ_Standalone_Wiki Good luck & enjoy the learning experience, a lot of DayZ players will make out that they knew all this stuff from day one of playing but there is a lot to learn so don't be discouraged, take your time, dont worry about losing gear or dieing until you've mastered the basics.

    Console Update 1.07

    Anyone found any new Items yet? the new items should have cycled through by now, especially as the repeater & .357 ammo are civilian spawns. I haven't found any rubber slugs for the shotty either. Anyone else had better luck?

    Is Livonia worth the buy ? (And how is the game after 1.06?)

    Ive been playing in a group all afternoon and into the night & we had even worse de-sync on the official Livonia servers than in 1.05. the servers were maxed out though & it is the first day of release but had to log every 30 mins in order to remove mags or get the actual item you think is in your hand, in your hand for other players. Enjoying the new map but the de-syncy bugs are quite Frustrating as queue times can be 20 mins or more after a re-log in order to even open a tin of food

    Guns per server

    I thought it would be the same on PC & Console servers also. But I have had multiple reports & seen first hand that more than 10 AKS74U's spawn on Console private servers, directly after a full wipe & with no chance of Duplication exploits. Not sure if the CLE is bugged on certain servers though or if there running different server settings, impossible to tell without direct access to the server settings. Obviously public servers are different as people can carry weapons in from different public servers etc. If bohemia could clarify if there are any differences itd be very helpful as hopefully there isnt

    Alt accounts

    I hear you dude, it's a flaw with Microsoft's profile system. You can buy one copy of DayZ and basically make infinite accounts to play that one copy as long as they are signed as family members to the primary account without any additional fees. At least on steam a person would have to buy another copy of the game, in order to run an Alt account on a server. So Xbox is full of players with multiple accounts ready to go across multiple servers.

    Xbox Servers

    Private servers are not worth the money right now dude, hopefully after 1.06 there's a clear improvement for private server owners. But tbh from day one of there release they've been full of De-sync issues. I love DayZ but I'd strongly recommend putting in a support ticket on the bug reporter & then stopping your payments for private servers. That goes for everyone. Money talks, if everyone reported there issues & stopped payments it'd get fixed real fast I'm sure. I subscribe to all the bug reports & I barely see any server owners making reports for these issues even though I know all servers suffer from them. I feel your pain dude but private servers have alway been ten fold worse performance wise for me atleast

    Xbox Servers

    Yep, thinks servers are ready for a full wipe. So many stashes, empty bases, semi destroyed walls & empty crates laying around. The server stability's gone out the window in the last few weeks, stuttering, even worse De-Sync than usual & team mates look like there running at 10fps on a 40 population official server. Really wish they would do monthly Server wipes for official servers, there saddening to play on after that point with bad performance, or at least create a system whereby empty stash crates & base walls deteriorate over time and de-spawn without up keep to increase performance & increase the longevity or stability & performance.

    Sickness & Health System

    Hi Id like to ask the community & @Greensek for there feedback on a few things I've noticed about the health & immunity systems of DayZ, in the hope I can get some clarity on whether certain items are bugged or are meant to have functions that have never been directly explained in FAQ's about said systems. Should alcohol tincture & disinfectant spray clean dirty water making it safe to drink as well as clean items that may have come into contact with cholera? (as it currently does purify water just as well as Chlorine tablets) Should Multi-Vitamins cure all diseases as well as bolster immunity against diseases? (as currently they act exactly the same as Tetra antibiotics and will cure Cholera) These are the two things I have noticed which seem to stand out as potentially unintentional, I understand the rest of the depth of the health system & have read all the Articles directly released by DayZ, etc. But have never seen these items having descriptions allowing them to do these actions. Just a curious gamer out here trying to science
