Lol, they are still part of the loot economy, so why remove them. Get them stashed for when they do work. It’s a console-specific issue, presumably because they haven’t got a button figured out yet. (It’s L on PC).

The local morgue... plus the family of the deceased. A florist would also be nice, but nothing too colourful.

From what’s I’ve heard, SG devs have actually been helping out DayZ devs, and vice versa. Arma devs, too. Bohemia are looking to help fund further development, and SG is one of their options (nearly 7 years of development doesn’t come cheap). Updates have been great this year. If they keep it up, we’ll have nothing to worry about.

@pilgrim* Try it with a bayonet on the gun and it gets nice and stabby. The kind of stabby I’d love to see on the spear!

0.50 added a large mine at Kamensk military (Troitskoe on iZurvive), which was the largest ‘underground’ section in Chernarus. This was, unfortunately, blocked off in 0.52. There are several other ‘sealed off’ areas like this on the map. Another I can think of is near the Dam south-west of Myshkino. Not sure if there was ever anything behind that one, though. I’m not sure if the mine is still behind the seal, but I’m definitely going to check with the offline mod, next time I’m on. Here’s some footage of the mine.

@pilgrim*

@pilgrim* Yeah, as I say, 1.03 added firearm melee and functional use of bayonets. If you are using conventional keybindings, you raise your weapon and press F to perform firearm melee. It’s not as viable as conventional melee weapons, but it certainly helps you out in a pinch, by pushing zeds back. Very useful to prevent being cornered.
-
Yeah, it’s working as intended, just not enough players to connect at all times. As I say, get yourself on the Discord if you can.
-
I don’t see why you can’t discuss it here. Although Bohemia seem to be rather hands-off about it. There are several things they could do to help increase the player count, but they seem to be ignoring it. For instance, the second wave of 5k keys went out on Friday, but there was no announcement. I would have expected a tweet, but nope. I only hope that they are playing it down because of the console backlash, and things will improve next week. If that’s NOT the reason, I’m genuinely confused. When you say you are unable to connect, do you mean it take ages to ‘search for a match’? This is a common problem at the moment, due to the low number of players. It’s worth joining the Discord if you can, because you will find out when people are playing, and can try to queue accordingly. Let me know if you need a link.

@haxordie The ‘games about aliens’ is DLC for Arma 3.. a game that had been worked on for much longer than DayZ SA. DayZ has been in development for nearly 7 years. It’s sold a lot of copies, but still probably not enough to throw a huge amount of resources behind it for THAT long. I assume you know that the engine changed during this time. Hence the lack of content now.
-
Look at Impulz’s reply, a few days ago, on the post titled ‘A simple pencil...’ in ‘Suggestions’... Notes are definitely still planned.
-
Could also be that OTHER players are in a party which would prevent you from hearing each other. Doesn’t have to just be you.
-
I would wait until next week’s major update to see if your problems are improved.
-
Not yet @BUGS-BUNNY
-
To be fair @Jonas Levin that reply was posted before the console news Tweet.
-
@pilgrim* I’ll tell you what I’ve learned from my time on both the forum and Twitter. DayZ devs don’t consider forum users their ‘player base’. They consider us the ‘hardcore few’. Player bases are dim-witted, drooling, ZOMBIES who could never understand something like a complex medical system. That’s the part where Twitter comes in. I’m not bitter (I’m on Twitter)
-
I just want to clarify that I don’t think BI are a greedy corporation. That edited quote doesn’t sit right with me @pilgrim* I’ve bought 3 copies this year alone. I’m just a fool who is desperate for his favourite game to survive.
-
It's not really unfair, when most of the player base is male. In fact 2/3 male to 1/3 female is probably quite generous when you take that into account. I agree with Derleth, though. Basic customisation options would be much better.

DAYZ EXPANSION - Tester... my first experience (video)
ThePugman replied to Box of Demons's topic in Gallery
It was a really good video mate, I subbed. I will say though, you should consider keeping politics and religion away from your channel. Some people cannot separate a person from their beliefs. -
I also hope that spear animations change, but you can’t compare DayZ to a game designed around medieval combat. In 1.03 they added bayonets with a stabbing animation for guns. Hopefully that means spears aren’t far behind. Also, dodging is already in the game. Pressing the lean buttons with your fists raised, makes you bob left or right.

Private Console Servers Pre-Order and FAQ
ThePugman replied to ImpulZ's topic in News & Announcements
They are speechless, too. Most of the questions can be answered by looking through the information provided... *hides* -
Lots of people are adamant that BI are like a greedy corporation. Some people paid £15, 6 years ago, and have hundreds of hours of joy out of it... But they will NEVER pay for DLC on PRINCIPLE! I call that entitlement.
-
On Twitter you only ever have to put up with people in small doses. That goes a long way with me.
-
I made a Twitter account just for DayZ, you bastards!
-
Didn’t even know this was a thing! I’ll post something when I’m looking snazzy.
