Cool.

Yesterday a mate logged out in front of me (we were both inside the same house) and he literally died in front of me and went to the coast from Staroye for no reason. And he was not handcuffed or anything like that and was in good health, to bleeding and so on. now it apparently just happened to me. A moment ago I was going to take a toilet-break, I logged out (in a secure location with no way to get shot or anything like that) and was there all of the 15 seconds to make sure everything was fine -but when I came back and logged in again two minutes later I am a Bambi on the coast. Me and my mate have been trying to make our way up north since yesterday and we are not getting anywhere and have to start over again for no reason at all. what is going on?? I am also reading that other people like are apparently logging back in after being killed to find their characters alive again and still with all their gear in the same position they got killed in. Is it all just a lottery now?

Just found one on a dude that was kind of enough to die close to me - civilian model.

It works just fine, just press RT to turn it on or off. As long as you don't hold down LT at the same time (like you would when firing the gun) then it turns on - it works great. Thanks to the geared guy in Staroye that just "donated" it to me (half an hour ago on 4206) after he came running into my house with gun in hand with bad intentions - I don't think he thought that I had seen him coming and that I was just baiting to see which kind of player he was. 🙂

Nah, you were in your right - he opened fire on you without a warning and then tried to combat log when you survived it - scum of the earth! You did a fine job.

I was just wonderig how the game is treating you guys after the new update. Is the framerate better, and especially when near other persons or on high-pop servers, in big towns and such as they promised (and specifically wrote about in he patch-notes)? Also, is the sound still clipping on and off? I am not at home and can't play before the weekend, but I am very curious!

Yep, they de-spawn pretty fast - even if you are close by. I had one that disappeared 35 meter away from me while looking at it.

I am buying an Xbox Elite Controller tomorrow to be able to customize the controls a bit. Leaning on top-paddles so i dont have to grib the controller like a crab and d-pad right on bottom right so i can speak to people easily.

I very much hope you are joking...

... Then they should have done their job better or not released for the system at all. Stop being such an elitist, not everyone has the option to upgrade.

Yeah, the new controls is a very bad joke. 😕

If anyone expected a fully polished release, then you guys not been keeping tabs with the evolution of this game. Every time they add a new function it fucks two others up, and then it takes a couple of months to fix that - just in time for them to release new features that breaks a lot of others. Take it or leave it, its just the way it is.

Awesome, that was about time - thanks for testing it!

It looks amazing, but i did not see anything about duping being fixed? Crossed fingers. 🙂

I that case you might as well un-install right now, it is a lot easier then whining about stuff that won't get changed. Ghosting is 100% here to stay, just get used to it and remember to check your corners. Combat logging will also stay no matter how long you change the timer to, some people just don't wanna risk losing all their shit and that won't change. And the duping part? The update is NOT out yet and neither are the full patch-notes, so it is _very_ early to start whining about that part. How about we just wait a couple of hours and see what state the game ACTUALLY will be in before we start complaining about stuff that is just pure guesswork? That said, the new controls look kinda... strange? I know we can't see the whole picture yet (as the diagram they showed only showed a little of the full controls), so im gonna wait a little and look forward to all the good stuff (they promised waaay better frame-rates plus persistence, that is a _big_ thing and I for one would be happy if all they fixed for now was the frame-rate drops!). We got a great fucking game here, lets see what the new version of it actually is before we start tearing the devs (another) new one! 😉

Raincoats (or other kind of clothing with no absorbency, there is some mil-gear that does it to) and heat-packs.

I think you should just come and park your car in front of my M4 instead.

I can't see that coming for now. They stated that privates servers on Xbox will NOT be a thing for now, and as far as I know you need a private server to be able to mod it. So all the clans, groups, factions and whatnot in here is going to have to curb their ambitions about what is possible here A LOT. Ive seen certain people/groups that had already started taking donations and such to be able to start private community-servers up and made pretty big remarks about what the money would be used for - this will hit the Xbox Dayz-community hard and as I see it DayZ without the mods and possibilities is only 50% of the charm. I know I will be relocating to DayZ on PC via GeForce NOW pretty soon - I just need to get a wired connection first as I am getting an extra ping of about 60 ms via my 4g, 5ghz wifi which is a tiny bit too much for me (but still totally playable).

I am really hoping this will be the update that makes this game go from a mess to something that doesn't give you a headache. 🙂 I absolutely love this game, and I am looking _very_ much forward to the 27th, but to be honest I don't really care about new guns and such - I want the game to be playable without extreme-fps drops, I want all the NORMAL mechanics that aint implemented right now which (leaning, holding breath, rushing down ladders and such) and I want the duping to be fixed. New guns'n'stuff is great, but fixing the general game is hopefully what they have been working their asses off on!

I will be very happy with the games if the following things is fixed: Duping - it's game-breaking and affects you I need several ways - both getting shot by idiots who should go play pubg instead (it's a good game after all) and the fact that decent players can't find a gun making the playing field even more unfair. FPS-drops near other players and in larger towns. Sound clipping in and out in larger areas. Weather and real nighttime re-introduced. Unconscious state needs to be activated when you get shot with smaller caliber bullets, we need to be able to take prisoners and have more interactions after a fight. Broken limbs. And of course persistence in terms of bases and stashes. Fix that and all new content can wait.

No private servers and no mods - it is certainly going to be another experience then playing it on a PC. I just got in on the beta-testing of GeForce Now (NVIDIAs game-streaming platform where you just need any basic computer and a good internet-connection to play in HD at 60 or more frames pr second), so i might end up buying it on steam and play it on my old MacBook Air instead of on the Xbox as DayZ without the real communities is basicly 95% KoS and no one speaking back because of the party-chat problem.

You posted this in the Xbox-section, and the SKS is not in our version yet - it will be added on the 27th. The Mosin, M4A1, AKM, BK-18 and SVD is in though (and then the pistols, smg's and the shotgun).

So no update until then?

Yes, it is 99% worthless for now.

Why do you make three different threads with what you want changed or fixed in the same forum? Please hold it in one the next time, and maybe try to use more time on your posts because i only understand half of it.
