Could you please optimize the game for the PS4-Pro to allow proper 4K gaming. I'm not asking for HDR but could you please optimize this game for 4K sets and the PS4-Pro. Even the Intro Video does skip and lag in 4k... DayZ in 4k mode looks so beautifull but it's almost unplayable compared to 1080p. The thing is when you once switch to 4k you don't want to go back to 1080p. On my Samsung QLED 4K TV 1080p does look kinda bad and I can spot things way better at 4K. Everything looks much sharper and cleaner in 4K, even the colours look better. Btw, is this game PS4-Pro optimized (like with the xbox one x)? What's your expirience with 4K? Is it playable for you?

I'm positve that most of the lag spikes are related to server performance and when there are no other players on the server driving will work just fine. I could verify this when driving on an empty 1P server for hours with no lag spikes/freeze lags... On another post in this forum I've read that most of the ingame stuff is handled on a single core, so no wonder there is huge lag and rubber banding on high pop servers. You can feel this especialy on custom servers with more than 60 slots. When those servers are full the game becomes unplayable and players are teleporting and there is a lot of lag (zeds, doors, looting, aso).

They have adjusted the food loss rate lately. I guess that you have to get used to it... Try to cut up dead ppl and cook their fat, it's a really good food source and last for a long time.

Well one Heli Crash disappeared right in front of my eyes when I was like 30-40m away from it but the Items and infected were still there... Happened on Chernarus with 1.05.

Yesterday I spotted a Heli crash and it disappeared while I was running at it... I think they are buggy.

Are there any Xbox players that encounter a lot of crashes since the latest patch? I'm just curious if those crashes are only related to PS4...

Please Fix Bluescreens asap, they are way to common after the latest patch!!!

Ok so the Bluescreens are real! They happen when repairing stuff and open cans of food. Very sad... You guys know any workaround for these bluescreens?

@Devs Thanks for the latest patch! The Quickslot menu changes are huge and very welcome. Some ppl are also reporting more stable fps in some situations but I can't confirm that on my PS4Pro + SSD. Sadly Item Desync and Ghost bullets are still not fixed. Please figure out how to resolve those two crucial issues and DayZ will be finally in a decent playable state on console. I've also encountered a couple of blue screens since the last patch when opening food cans or repair my clothing via duct tape or sewing kit. Does anyone else have the same problems? Keep up the work...

I'm playing DayZ since release on console so I know those so called relog workarounds but I didn't know that quickswapping items is also buggy and cause ghost bullets/weapons. Anyway in my last session I had to relog at least like 10+ times to loot stuff of dead players, fix ghost bullets aso. It's just unacceptable and really annoying. There is also no workaround for items dissapearing. So please don't act like those mentioned bugs aren't game breaking. Relogging every couple minutes on a high pop server with a 20+ queue is indeed game breaking and it's ruining the survival experience big time! Not using the quick swap function is also game breaking as you can't expect people to know about it and always keep that in mind when there is a stressfull situation. Most people will only realize that their weapon is useless/bugged if it's already too late! If you play solo you can't ask your buddy if you are holding the actual weapon in your hands. If quickswap is so broken and causing those issues I would suggest that the devs simply remove this function until it's fixed...

ETA on hotfix? Please don't let your community down this time! At least sort out the item desync and ghost weapons (deal no dmg)...PLEASE

You must be ultra lucky. All people I've talked with since 1.06 experienced a lot of bugs and issues with the game. The most annoying are the still ongoing game breaking bugs like item desync and weapons/mellee that deal no dmg to players/infected. In my 3.5 hour session I had to relog at least 10 times because I couldn't eat/drink, couldn't reload my guns/mags or my weapons all of the sudden were not dealing dmg anymore. I don't know what the devs are doing but this is really no professional work and very sloppy to say it kindly... DayZ on console feels like a very unfinished and buggy game and it's a shame that this game is sold as a "release" title.

Could you also please adjust the blood loss and blood regen rate? 4x Bleeding = insta death. It's such a pvp killer...

If melee doesn't work it means that "all" of his guns don't work either... He was in the middle of nowhere, bleeding and chased by a zed. The same situation got me killed a couple of times and it's really frustrating to loose all of your stuff like this. He was proper geared so it's not like that he was a fresh spawn with nothing...

Hotfix inc.? This game is unplayable in its current stage!! Look at your twitter comments... 😮 Actually it shouldn't be allowed to release a game in such a broken state with a paid DLC on top. BI you should be ashamed of yourself!

Use the share Button > Save Video Clip Function next time. By Default it will save the last 15mins of gameplay...

Please identify and resolve the most game breaking bugs. Fixing item desync and the weapons deal no damage bug should be your top priority for console players. We waited such a long time for this update but the game breaking bugs are still present on console. Devs please resolve those issues and make the game at least playable for us console players. We appreciate the new added content, balancing and tweaks but with the game breaking bugs mentioned above it's not fun to play DayZ as you never know when those bugs will get you killed or ruin your survival expirience!

1. Item Desync still not fixed !! (can't fully loot dead players inventory most of the time, mags/reloading buggy, inventory buggy, dopped items buggy/players can't see the item you that you drop on the ground, items disappear) 2. Non functional weapons are still present!! (melee/guns deal no damage to players/infected + no weapon/gun fire sound, other players can't see that you are holding a weapon) 3. The game performance in many areas is still pretty bad, almost unplayable in some situations(PS4 Pro@1080p + SSD) 4. Texture Glitches/Visual glitches are still present (e.g. broken water in some areas) Overall I would say that the devs haven't fixed most of the "game breaking" bugs (1. + 2.) on console and It's a shame to release a paid DLC without fixing those "game breaking" bugs in the first place... Why can't the devs fix Item desync and non functional weapons on console? Don't you think that's it's very important to fix those game breaking bugs before releasing any new content?

I know that PS4-Pro isn't native 4k but DayZ runs awful on 4K mode. On the other side it looks really good in 4k mode. All I'm asking for is an optimisation for the PS4-Pro. I can't play DayZ in 1080p on my 55inch 4k TV anymore, it just looks bad...

+1

Any news?

I hope the devs "get it right this time". Haven't played DayZ for weeks as all my friends left the game due the exessive bluescreens and the numerous game breaking bugs. If the devs can't deliver with the next patch/update I'm done with BI and all their future work on console...

Today I've encountered some Bluescreens. A few guys were crashing in front of me and I was fine but at the end someone picked up gloves from the vicinity and everyone bluescreened at the same time. The next crash happend when a car was driving right next to a group of players (sound gone > than bluescreen). Shortly after everyone had a bluescreen again.

Forgot to mention that I've redownloaded the game a few days ago, but I'm not sure if that also helped with those bluescreens. Anyway I'm still far away from beeing happy with the state of the game as almost every old game breaking bug is still there!

Played a couple hours today without crashing/bluescreening. Had a bit pvp and lot of pve against zeds. Maybe I was just lucky today or the PS4 firmware update 7.00 (inclusive Database rebuild) has something to do with it... I dont think it's linked to my SSD. Never had any problems with any other games, only advantages with my SSD. 😉
