Molecular Drift 1.0

Part of me would love to have an SVD, but I already know I'll be gunned after from the moment I get my hands on one... I'm sure peeps will go out of their way to drop a player who has one due to how rare they are and I haven't even come across a crash site yet.

Vehicles are coming. They're currently working on a usable sedan, a truck and a light airplane. Like Bombarding said though, it'll probably be a good while before they're introduced into the game.

Negative! Only private servers may have / enforce codes of conduct and play style, but there are none for public servers.

I haven't experienced this. Are you sure the server crashed or was it your machine? I've had a couple of game crashes, but very few and luckily not when I was in the middle of something engaging. I'm not running an Xbox One X, but I am running the game through one of the best SSD's available and only experience lag when playing on servers outside of my region.

That's hilarious! My favorite experience playing DayZ so far was having a fresh character (maybe fifteen minutes or so old) and I was looting a house near the coast. Suddenly I hear a lot of zombie commotion outside and I peek out the kitchen window to see about six zombies surrounding the next house over. I engaged my mic and asked if the person hiding inside was friendly and didn't receive a reply, so I continued searching for items and oddly enough, found an Alice pack that contained some canned peaches, a soda or two and a bottle of water! So I sneak out of the house and begin heading north along the road, leaving the other player to his own fate. I jogged maybe four blocks out of the small stretch of homes and suddenly I was taking hits... I thought someone was shooting me from behind with a silenced firearm, but turned and saw the other player taking swings at me. Based by the fact that he caught up to me so fast, I knew he must've sprinted and was probably out of or very low on stamina, so I returned two heavy blows and three jabs of my own and knocked him unconscious. I turned my mic back on and told him that I wasn't going to try to resuscitate him, went and grabbed the attention of three of the zombies who were after him earlier and sprinted past that sorry sack shouting; "That's what you get!". I spun around a few more blocks further and witnessed them finish him off before cutting into the woods. I've seen and experienced some funny moments, but this one just cracks me up!

I've had some trouble entering shower rooms in military buildings, but seemingly only when wearing an Alice pack. Ultimately I could get in, just had to step away from the doorway and try again.

Tents will come, but until the game is advanced along enough to allow the servers to not be reset every few hours then tents really won't be of much help / use.

Sure, it's kind of aggravating to start over after being fully kitted and having enough supplies to last in the woods for weeks... But, it really doesn't take long to refit if you know where to go and I seem to get more enjoyment making my way to areas of hot loot in high population servers, because once I'm fully kitted, I tend to get bored (I do not play as a bandit...). If you're into being kitted all the time and want to deck out a character fast, just play on another regions server when most of the gamer population will be in bed and kit up to your hearts content. This can be done in under an hour once you have your bearings and know where to go.

I don't understand what you mean. Are you still experiencing mag change issues? I haven't had any gun issues since the update on 09.18.18. Also, I've found that firearms tend to get me into more trouble than anything else, because it seems like every time I fire a shot, everyone nearby comes looking...

Starting out with a fresh character is rough and being that fresh characters spawn in with roughly half hunger and thirst, some spawn points are certainly worse than others. Try to avoid sprinting at all costs until you find ample supplies (I only sprint when in firearm combat or running for dear life from wolves). When looting the first village you come across and it happens to have been already been cleared by someone else, just exit and log into another server. An untapped village should yield enough supplies to get you to the next town or city. You can jog quite a distance once full on food and water, so if you find a pond, stream or water pump, make sure you drink from it until the stomach icon appears. I can easily jog from Altar to the International Airport without needing to eat or drink anything even though there's ponds, streams and animal spawns along the way. I hope this helps!

It is crazy loud! Have you watched the intro video? The seagulls and crashing waves at the start nearly made me deaf... Beyond that, loving this game!

Ouch...

Awesome job! It's nice to know the NPC hostiles can indeed kill one another.

That would be pretty darn cool! I have to admit, the zombies are not much of a threat as they are unless you act carelessly. Having to duck and hide, or get to a secured roof or water tower when a hoard is closing in would be a blast!

This has been fixed for my TV as of the update implemented on 09.18.18. It's nice to see my hydration meter finally! Did this fix yours?

More than likely a long range shot... I've been hit in the torso, survived and then heard the shot ring out a second afterwards. I've been shot a lot actually, never died from a single hit though, yet...

I'm not a fan of server hopping... But, when I finally reach an abandoned military post and haven't even found a gun and I'm immediately under fire from someone who just server hopped in behind me, you're damn right I'm going to hop out if I'm not killed first!

The wipe has made many areas (especially military) far more dangerous as everyone has been making beelines to them and are hopping like mad to get fully kitted once again. I was shot at least four times last night by hoppers and I didn't even have a loaded pistol... My recommendation is to steer clear of hot zones until the majority of gear hounds get what they want and hopefully head off to different locations. Not even the low populated servers are safe right now.

Wolves certainly exist on the Xbox version! I've been stuck in the middle of three battles between them and zombies... Two of these instances occurred when I had nothing but a hatchet and a kitchen knife in which one of these took place on the outskirts of a village, the second happened quite a few blocks into a larger city. The third and last time I encountered wolves was when I was leaving a town and heading for the woods when the ambush happened... Although I had a gun at that point, I didn't want to shoot and alert other players that I had a one and the wolves ended up aggroing two zombies. Luckily for me there was a deer stand nearby that I immediately sprinted to, climbed up into, bandaged and waited for the zombies and wolves to take their little war far enough for me to climb down and disappear from. The funny thing is, I don't think they can actually kill each other as I hung around for nearly ten minutes for them to get far enough away not to notice me and at no point did either zombie or three wolves die...
