    Stable Update 0.63.149525

    Just how you described it - Held a bottle of water, aimed for the barrel and a "Pour Liqiud" showed up. I thought I just poured it on the ground by accident but it went straight to the barrel. There is a slot inside the barrel for "Lime", I remember putting it there but can't remember if it was before or after the water part, it didn't work, anyway. Pool sheep, killed for nothing... :)

    Stable Update 0.63.149525

    Just comparing notes: 1. This is the second time that I build a Watch Tower and cannot climb it afterwards. After the 3rd floor started to get built (not finished), I logged out, came back a day after that, and now I cant climb the stairs anymore. Annoying. 2. Hammers and Hacksaws cannot be fixed. 3. After using a tool too much and it gets ruined (hammer or hatchet for example) - my character get's stuck in the action position and I lose control of it. Only left-right-clickity-click solves it, or re-logging. 4. Sawing off planks is a mess, they should just pile up together to a full 20 pcs stack automatically, next to my character. 5. Had a lag (probably) while placing a barrel inside my car, then it disappeared, the next time I check the trunk - it was there again but I can't take it out anymore. 6. My car keeps hitting me when I exit it, or when any player just bumps into it. When zombies run towards the car while it's parked with the engine running, when they bump into it they get launched to the air 20-30 meters high, some landed on the roof top of the next building. Was funny and saved me the efforts to clean the street. But should fixed anyway. 7. No fuel consumption - I filled the car with the slightest possible amount of gas and was able to drive from Bugatyrka > Lopatino > Vaviovo > NWAF > Pustoshka >Zelenogorsk > Kamenka > and back north to Myshkino's Lumber Mill. Fuel meter did not change at all. This is our 3rd fixed car, all of them drive with zero consumption. 8. Gas stations works! Don't throw away your Jerrycans. 9. Smoking car - I finally figured it out - the Radiator can be filled with water. You just need to aim precisely on it's knob, and It takes 4 full canteens of water to make it stop smoking. 10. For all those who are complaining about the car (ADA) not able to climb up on dirt roads - Use the Turbo button, (default "Left Shift") - it will give you a boost. 11. Trucks can't drive up even the slightest inclined road. Seems to broken, unless I'm doing it wrong. 12. When driving and using 1PP view, car sounds are muted. 13. After chopping down a tree, if I drag the wooden logs (stack of 4) to my inventory, they are added 1 by 1. If I just "Take" the pile (using F) - they go inside as a full pack of 4. 14. After returning to the lumber yard with my car (see trip from section 7), zombies started to run towards the car and die instantly, then my game crashed. (Windows app error). So I logged back to my game and my character spawned in the air ~30m high. Of course, I was not able to do anything but watch myself fall down to my death...and *splat*. A nice ending for the road trip anyway. 15. I added some water to a barrel with a water bottle. It showed that it contains less than 1% water, but I couldn't fill it up anymore or empty it, so it's stuck in this state. Did anyone try this? is it functional in the current build? Can barrels accumulate rain water if left empty and open ? 16. You can't place tents over 90% of the concrete in built areas, anywhere. Also, placing a tent in the wild is also a pain, either there's a tiny slope or a bush - you can't place anything. Trees can't be remove even when chopped so you can't make proper ground for camps in the best areas in the map. 17. Stone oven is broken, but looks very cool! I had to jog to a place (quite distant) with rocks, mine 16 rocks, and jog back to the camp. We made 2 fire pits: One with rocks (upgraded), and a Stove Oven, we could not light any of them. We removed the stones - it got lit up with no problems at all. Also - Fire Pits with stones should not de-spawn, especially stove ovens. All this effort was a waste of time. Suggestions: 1. We need the ability to craft nails. Maybe it's time to put some use into those machines in the lumber yards, by plugging a power cord from the generator & feeding them metal sheets to craft nails? 2. Fencing - Although I admire the progress, placing fences should be done by a "Free Tool / Custom Fence" and not a "Fixed width fence". It's very hard to find a proper spot to place the fence, and your character needs 2m distance between it and the desired fence location, if you want to be able to place it there. 3. Shelters / Closed Quarters - Would be really nice (and logic) to be able to build something that will keep our characters dry and warm and fluffy when it's cold and rains. (Maybe add the ability to build the 4th wall of 1st level in the tower and craft a door for it. (door recipe could be 6 planks+metal wire). 4. You should make a new Server Rule: If there's anything built by a player in a given area - zombies should not spawn there. They should spawn normally only after 3-4 days, a week, 40 days of inactivity, I don't know, but if we took over a place and built it up and everything is closed tight - finding zombies in your tents and below the watchtower when you log-in is a little bit absurd. Love this game, keep up the good work !

    Stable Update 0.63.149525

    Is gate building bugged out, or am I doing it wrong? - Built a fence - Added metal wire - While using pliers to interact with any fence, it shows "build gate [hold]", but the animation stops after a split of a second.
  4. Hi, Can anyone explain how does the hive system work on official experimental servers? I have 2 characters, until a few days ago whenever I logged in to UK servers, I got a specific character, on DE servers I got the other one. Since yesterday, it seems random. Either the names are misleading, or I just don't understand how it works. I spent more time on reconnecting and hoping to play with a specific character, than actually playing. Also, the main menu is really confusing and buggy. Characters menu is unclear, filters seem to work partially, currently the only way for me to find a good server is with trial&error and to write down the IP:Port before and after I play.

    Experimental Update 0.63149374

    Hi, I was wondering if some of the issues of wrong spaces / slots that are taken by items, are going to get fixed any time in the future ? a few examples: - Cooking Pots size: 4x3 Can hold items inside + 2 liter of water. They should be able to contain only one of them. - Gas Stove Size: 1x3 When attaching a pot to it - it's "shrinks" down to 3x1 capacity, since it's mounted on the stove (including items + water). - Gas canisters Sizes: 2x1, 2x2, 2x3 Shrinks down to the stove's size (1x3) when you attach them to it. - Same goes for Gas Lamp... - Weapons & attachments: - a rifle (e.g UMP45) takes 15 slots - a scope (e.g ACOG) takes 3 slots - a mag takes 3 slots When all combined - they still take 15 slots instead of 21. Another question of logic: Why can't we put a "Small Protector Case" inside a "Small Drypack" inside our backpacks ?

    Status Report - 23 October 2018

    Agree 100%. In 2014, I bought the game when it just got published. I played it a little bit, really liked it, but I decided that I'll get back to it when it's ready. In 2018, I played 0.62 for roughly 2 hours just to see what's what, but the performance were terrible. When 0.63 came out, the performance and graphics got really improved. It was a blessing. But where did the content go? It's kinda boring. Believe it or not, the best experience I had so far was watching YouTubers like TheRunningManz and other great guys, playing earlier versions, up to 0.62. So I started to test out the stress test builds, and to be honest, I lost my enthusiasm. See, I do it because I just want the game to be done already. I'm willing to test it and spend the time and report bugs. But whenever BI exposes me to another unfinished feature and or new bugs, I lose some of my faith. I'm just a consumer for that matter. Then I stop playing for a few days, then go back to play it on xbox. Then I check the forums, twitter, I get pissed off but I let it go again, trying to stay frosty and cool about it, and it's been like that for 2 months. In short - you just "woke me up" in August 2018, just to tell me that the game is not ready yet.

    Night time

    Is this the reason for the non-stop rain? In the last couple of days I played on the same server and did not have a single dry moment. Having rain is great, but the sound of it is too loud, it never changes due to winds, it rains in the same pace for hours, no thunders or lightnings. I had to quit the game because the sound started to get on my nerves, it's just static noise after a while. Also, i'd like to have more encounter with wolves and boars and any wild predator at night, should we expect any changes in the future to make nights more challenging?

    Deleted message, irrelevant, oops.

    Xbox Update 24/10/2018

    Man, I swear, if I'll ever find some nails on ST 51, I'll PM you right away. I see you take this matter very seriously... (: you have my sympathy. On xbox world, we're still stuck on bugs and we even don't have full day/night cycles. Base building for us sounds like Sci-Fi at the moment.

    Coast killing squads

    Sounds like trouble. Post the server number and name of the city. We'll be sending "The Hound", Over. * "Battlefield 2" Music theme in the background *

    Current items in Version 0.63.00

    A smersh bag can be found in a heli crash site, but it's useless since all you can do with it is just carry it by hand. You can store it in your inventory only if it's empty and takes up 24 slots if I remember correctly. I can give you mine if you want.

    East Side need more military

    There are too many army bases anyway. We need hammers and nails, not rifles and bullets.
  13. Tarkules

    Dwindling player base already

    Yep. Getting attacked by wolves is fun now. Too bad I can't call them to play a little.

    Xbox Update 12/10/2018

    Thanks for the fixes! My inventory remained as is, nothing was gone. Reload with Y works nicely with all my weapons. Edit: Reload with Y stopped working all of the sudden. Edit #2: Works again. I don't know. Server messages are back. Don't know if my stash got wiped or not, can't find my server. As I understand from a different post - some of the servers are missing at the moment until tomorrow. My flashlight is on quick slot already, got 3 spare batteries, let the sun go down and bring us the moon (:

    Man Part's One Stop Shop (Open!)

    Hey, maybe you could hook up with @Major Plums. If he will be able to form his group and find a proper place to occupy, perhaps they could provide you the necessary defense with his the UN soldiers. Anyway, we have about... 3 months to discuss this and we will need merchants at some point, right ? Don't give up :)

    Please add something to xbox

    @pilgrim* - I would have voted up your last answer as the correct one, if it was possible. Thanks for the clarification.

    Night servers until next update

    This one goes for the developers or any official person from BI that can respond to my sugestion: Maybe we can have some night servers? There are dozens of empty servers with no use (except for the new trend: Hop&Hoard). Playing the Preview for a month especially when it's always 9am - is just boring. Since we did not receive any news about the next update, maybe this can be done to allow us experience the better sides of the game. I am not talking about getting the Time moving, just put up some night servers at constant hour 6/7/8pm, when it's dark, but enough light to handle yourself without flashlights or torches. As a bonus - maybe it will get some people "off the edge" in the forum, seems like they gonna kill each other pretty soon (: Just a thought. Admin: if this thread goes sideways like many other good threads, please kill / lock it, or just lock it now. Ponies are allowed, though.

    Making developer's take action

    If you want to "force change on games", making such a post on BI's forums or any other games company is just pointless. Should have posted this on Microsoft or a news blog. Your frustration, like many others, is because you got used (too quickly) to get weekly updates and patches and tweets, and worst - you let yourself to get carried away in the xbox hype (myself included). The only real problem I see here, is the lack of super-heavy and professional PR management. This way they could tell you in the nicest words to "Take it, or leave it". But instead, only here you can discuss your feelings with thousands of bored and disappointed xbox players who can share you misery. I bet this forum is being refreshed countless times by players like you and me hoping to hear some news, but hey, what if nothing happens, like forever? Cheer the fuck up.

    You should be able to fish with it. https://dayz.gamepedia.com/Bone_Fishing_Hook But not in the current version.

    I vote to make this thread "sticky". A small hope for the dying survivorz.

    Just an idea

    You mean something like this ?

    Man Part's One Stop Shop (Open!)

    Got a Dry backpack buried somewhere with: - MP5 + silencer & mags & ammo - Skorpion + silencer & a mag & ammo Got another stash with: - Car Battery - Flashlight - Batteries - Walkie Talkie I also have another stash with food & water bottles, not sure where I put it... if I'll remember, add that to the list. If until Thursday this week, we will not get an update that will get us night time - It's all yours, brother. Maybe I'll meet you in person and give you everything I have except for an axe and water. I'll keep you posted. BTW - Your nickname is perfect for the store name.

    Any update today

    Well, someone posted on xbox a video 16 hours ago, showing that he got connected to a server on Asia at NIGHT time. So I'm pretty sure that BI are doing experiments to make sure that we get time moving while keeping stability on all servers. Brace yourselves.
