    We definitely need the toggle back. I don't know why you wouldn't want it. If you don't like to use it, and prefer to kill on sight, then don't use it. But let the rest of us who want to engage with other players have the option to do so. This game is all about interaction in all its forms. 

    I have found that 99% of the players that I have came across have one objective, to kill me.. Regardless of whether it looks like I have decent loot or no, in turn I trust absoloutly no-one.. I put it down down to imaturtity of the Xbox (console) community, the PC players seem to play the game in a much more FP oreintated format, Xbox players play it like a shooter.... Do you find that?

    OK, no update, whatever! How about you WIPE THE SERVERS and get the loot back on the maps where it belongs and not buried in some fucking tent somewhere. I think everyone could live with that for the time being...

    mmmm ok, I am new to DayZ but I am fast getting the impression that the game isnt worth the hassle. Back to PUBG or find a different game I think.. #feelsbadman

    Paid top dollar for the game already, and it runs absolutely terrible, whilst the game runs the way it does, not talking about the bugs but just the freeze frames and frame drops I cant see many people wanting to sink more money into this game. I love the idea of private servers, with parameters you can actually change, these ones though just seem like a bit of a money grab lol.

    Could not agree more, the price they are charging is the same as what AAA titles charge, DAYZ is without a doubt one of the buggiest games I have every played in a very long time. DayZ runs now, at 1.02 worse than pubg did on day 1 of its game preview and thats saying a lot. On top of that, we wait months for updates, they let the player base abuse exploits and destroy the game, for months and nothing by way of a fix, even still. $80(AUD) for this game is borderline thievery, but what can you do...

    So I am quite new to the game, it seems to get skilled with gunplay is long process as interactions are few, at least PVP anyway. So yesterday I lost my fully kitted m4, a dozen mags and a few other bits that I worked hard to get, took a few weeks and it was my first death, TO ZOMBIES of all ways. Anyway, I accidentally discharged my gun northwest airfield and had an influx of Zombies on me, I had no cover or buildings near so I had to fight, and it was a real struggle to use the M4. When I would ADS into my ATOG(?) my reticle seemed to get stuck and it would cause me to over aim trying to un-stuck it, the reticle would jump if that makes sense. Ultimately being the catalyst to my death as I could not get smooth motion/aim to fight off all the zombies. My question is is this just large frame drops or is there a game mechanic that kind of diminishes your shooting ability once injured slightly as I was bleeding (i think).  Frame drops would explain it if I am trying to aim and the game is not rendering my motions it would make sense that the reticle would appear to jump when the frames come back... Did anyone experience this? I am running the X with DayZ installed to an SSD.

    I’ve just heard that some pc players have found a way to dupe items since the 1.04 build was released.

    I don’t know if it’s something console players will be able to reproduce, though that’s a let down if it’s true.

    I just dont get it, why do players even want to dupe if it ruins the game. When the loot balance is right it's not that hard to go out and find a kit, damn these idiots..

    I love this game but damn its an absolute broken mess. I am not talking about duping or all that other stuff, I am talking the general functionality of it.

    Why can't my buddy pick up the things I drop for him?
    Why can't I see the light coming from the flare that my buddy is holding?
    Why, when I am holding a Mosin, to my buddy it looks like a water bottle lol
    Why can't I scope in, using a Mosin and a PU scope I hold LT, press R3 to iron sight and then tap right DPad to ADS but it won't ADS, it's just stuck on iron sight? Now I am sure I am doing it correctly, please correct if I am wrong, but I was doing it yesterday just fine.
    Why is there footstep audio when I shift my character in the slightest way when crouched?
    and on and on it can go...

    Now I have only been playing for a like a week.

    I have been rolling with a mate for about a week now, probably spent 20+ in-game looting around and what not. We have been up to a few mili bases, a bunch inland towns etc etc. So far all we have found is a couple of pistols, some odd matching mags, a few basic attachments. My question is, are the AR weapons and scopes and what not actually that rare and that it's normal just to find nothing? We are feeling a little deflated, feeling like we are just playing an apple eating simulator. I know the best place to get good loot is off players we might kill, but how can we be in any way competitive if we can't even find a weapon that we can use, single chamber pistols not included. Any tips on getting guns would be moocho appreciated.

    I had a few friends buy the game just recently, they all demanded their money back. The lag spikes are what we might see in an early ALPHA game, its extremely rude to ask $80 AUD for a game that runs this terribly, however, I suspect it only runs so bad because of the duplicated loot filling up the servers. Whenever I get anywhere near a building, let alone a cluster of them I drop to single fps, total freezes and it's just a mess. Its not a good reflection of the game, I bet those mates that played and want their money back are slamming the game to all their mates, turning potential players off the game for good..

    Just a warning at this point, as you already went for denunciation and now uninformed claims. We understand frustration about persistent issues in the game, but please stick to our guidelines for the forums.

    To clear that up a bit: The test with the 150 player server was, as described in the accompanying tweet, a test for hardware performance. And just because a server is able to run 150 players does not mean we will increase every single server to 150 players, as there's obviously way more to consider on that. The test was just to see the performance of specific server hardware (our second hardware performance test was using only 60 slot servers btw).

    Our team is working on the known issues of duping, meatballing, frame drops, and ghosting, while porting the new content and features from PC to consoles. Those are our priorities.

    I am trying to get my friends to play the game, in the last few days I have got three others to purchase it. One loves it, despite of its problems, loves it for what the game is about, the hardcore loot grinding experience.. The other two now think I am a dickhead for recommended DayZ because of its current issues. They cited the lag and lack of loot with all these weird boxes and tents everywhere. The way the game is now with the duping and the problems that arise from it could be possibly the absolute worst first impression to be put on new players. The duping has got to go...

    Ok, well duping sounds like a ridiculous glitch and sounds like it does indeed ruin the game. I want that hardcore, grind for loot experience.. My next question is then I guess "why have the dev team not fixed it? I am reading duping glitch posts from month and months ago. I really hope a fix is coming soon.

    So I have started the game again, I pre-purchased it in game preview but didn't play it because it was so bad, now that I am back all I hear is duping this, duping that. I don't really want to know how to do it, but can someone explain why it's considered a bad thing, extra loot seem like a good idea to me.
