Ok guys, I fucked up. I verified my files to initiate the download, but didn’t do so after it downloaded. Was missing a big ol 250mb file. Seems good now. *retreats in shame*

Ok, it’s the vaulting. First time I crashed I was trying to vault. 2nd, 3rd and 4th, were logging into the same spot. 5th time I went for a 3pp server and was a different character. Ran to the nearest town, up to a fence, vaulted over it and crashed. I wonder if it could have something to do with having an old character? @ImpulZ

It’s not a pc issue, that’s why. All they have to do is assign the button.

3 times crash to desktop.. Same spot. Any advice. Already verified files, etc.

Ok, just crashed straight to desktop twice in succession. *gulp*

Looks solid. Smaller than previous updates, but good changes. Blood bags and saline finally work!!

Accidental duping has always been a thing. Fortunately, it’s too much of a ballache for the masses to recreate. Haha, nice. But never underestimate the Mosin. That shit will one-tap you all day long.

@Sterlyng Shane-kyler Roehrig If it happens inland, you’re usually alright. I’ve never had it happen on the coast, though. Imagine spawning in and finding a fully working car... Can’t believe the moron didn’t drive it away!

The problem is, it’s actually helpful for legitimate players to plan for restarts. For example, if the server restarts in 2 minutes, is it really worth getting into a firefight? Plus car drivers, can pull over, so they don’t get separated from their vehicle.

@jamie.lou So the old ‘sinking tech’ isn’t a thing now? So if someone is lying prone in long grass, they just look like a ridiculous twat in the middle of an open field? 😂 That’s insane. I loved the points you made on my ticket, by the way. Just never got around to replying. Don’t forget that, even if blood WERE more of a factor, blood bags and saline currently do jack shit.

I’m surprised so many dislike it. I think it’s a decent solution to a lot of major issues... Ghosting - nothing worse than someone magically appearing in your base, or even behind you during a firefight. I used to think spawning in a nearby town world be better, but what’s to stop someone using it to flank around you? Combat Logging - losing your position on the map will hopefully be enough to deter people from this. Server hopping - Whether it’s for finding military loot, or escaping the dark. This system works wonders for these. I’ve already noticed an increase in pop during the night. Duping - This new system makes the previous duping exploits a lot more difficult to do. Hopefully they will deter enough people to prevent the shitshow from before The only major drawback I can see is if a server crashes, and goes down for a long time. Losing your progress that way would suck. I’ve also used it in a good way. After a long journey to Tisy, I felt I needed a fresh start, so CHOSE to server hop and spawn in a random location. It was kinda cool. Post-Tisy often feels like a bit of a slog. I know it’s not exactly realistic, but it’s a nice option to have if you want to mix it up a bit.

@HoneyBadgers420. The defib zaps through batteries, so one of the attempts may not have worked. It happened to me before, and the devs confirmed that the defib is the only thing that will revive you from this state.

@Zwoozh Fix it? It’s a part of the game, dude. Just play the damn thing and it will be daytime before you know it. Night lasts 1 hour, max.

I think they have definitely started work on them. Martin said on a livestream they were coming in 1.03 or 1.04, remember?

It’s a file from the game that you need to view on a PC.

@POUNDYOUSILLY Saiga shotgun is on the ‘planned weapons’ list. That’s probably the closest thing. Weapons that were previously in the game are the first priority, though. Anything not on the list needs to get in line 😉 https://dayz.gamepedia.com/List_of_planned_weapons

@john garcia FYI, 4 full circles at the pump will fill your stomach without vomiting.

They didn’t reach console because the stats don’t work, yet. They are just placeholders, really. OPs idea is cool, but it seems too complicated to implement. Also, being able to know all the previous gun owners... It’s the kind of gameplay meta, that DayZ tries to avoid.

@Sterlyng Shane-kyler Roehrig He’s viewing the files of the PC version, but the values are still the same for console.

@WezzyStef907 I think it would be a good idea because it could generate more sales for the game. Not sure if it will happen soon, though. You could always make one of your friends the ‘owner’ of your console (and vice versa) in the Xbox settings. That will allow them to play the game. If they like it, they may buy it. Choose the friend wisely... preferably the one most likely to convince the others to buy it, too.

When the server restarts, it often rolls your character back a minute or so. It won’t move the car back, though. That SHOULD be in the same area you last had it. This means, you have to run ahead to catch up with it.

@narcisissma Yes, hopefully, but I believe it’s very low on their priority list.

@narcisissma It was a joke, but it’s also true for DayZ... Your character choice isn’t saved between play sessions. If you select your character every time you startup DayZ (even if you have a character on the server), you should respawn as the same one when you die. If that doesn’t work... When you die, exit to the menu, select your character, rejoin and THEN respawn (this method is a pain in the arse).

Yes! Longer dusk/dawn. Those are the best times of the night, but they’re gone in the blink of an eye. I also believe that days should be 3 or 4 hours long. I believe it’s 2 hours at the moment, which is far too quick. I love night, but it annoys me when it rolls around again so quickly.

In 2019... yes.
