    AMD Frame Rate İssue

    I'm just commenting for visibility, hopefully it gets addressed by the devs (or AMD).

    Procedural Maps on Official

    That would be a dream come true, but sadly I don't think it's technically possible to do.

    Repair Buttstocks and Handguards with Epoxy

    I don't see nothing wrong with epoxy putty fixing attachments. Having stuff spawn damaged but not having ability to fix it sucks. Badly damaged attachments don't affect the stats from what I know, so it's purely cosmetics. Why can epoxy putty fix plate carriers but can't fix plastic bits? If we want to get nit-picky about realism then we need to take a few steps back and fix other more amusing unrealistic aspects.

    New GPU needed - AMD still got bad FPS in DayZ?

    Can't speak much from personal experience as I had no issues on AMD RX580 (older card) and now I upgraded to an RTX 4060. A friend of mine upgraded to a RX 7600 a year ago and he had much worse performance than my old RX580. Not sure how it is now, but there was something wrong with his card/drivers and it's not only in DayZ. Some other games have some weird crashing issues.
  5. Can't satisfy everyone. Even if they do everything (adding content, fixing bugs, adding features and expanding survival like they plan on doing) there will always be somebody to complain about the free updates.

    New weapon: Pepesha

    It would be a great addition and it would make sense lore-wise, but it would require new ammo, 7.62x25. They would also need to add one or two more guns that use that cartridge. One contender could be TT-33 but that's about it really. There's few SMGs throughout history that used 7.62 Tokarev but they are all basically similar in nature so not much point in adding them. It might be better for them to look at .380, 9mm and .45 options to expand the civilian/police loot some more. There's many great options available for those rounds.

    Microphone input options

    +1, by design it should use the default device selected in windows settings but I can't confirm if it actually works that way. If having a drop down menu for mic selection is too much, could we at the very least get a mic playback to hear how it sounds in the game.

    What do you want to see in DayZ 2024?

    I agree, but I also think they shouldn't always 100% aggro on the uncon player to kill him. I feel like there should be some (i just woke up and i'm missing a word here) that would determine wether or not they keep beating you to death. So let's say they uncon you, but another player is nearby or shooting or whatever. They should lose the aggro on you. And I also feel like they should have a random max number of attacks they do on you, ranging anywhere from several attacks to beating you till you die. Maybe they could still keep hitting you after you die - makes them seem more deranged and could ruin more of your gear. So there COULD be a chance there is only one zombie on you and you get lucky. It only hits you a few times after you go uncon and you live.

    FPS drops since update

    Yeah it really is sad. I've heard it might be an issue with DX 11.1 and AMD cards, but I ain't no expert. Friend of mine bought an RX7600 and he gets abysmal performance (10-30% GPU usage and around 20-30 FPS). My RX580 beats it by like 300% (it's not affected by the issue as only the newer AMD cards suffer from issues). There was a driver patch like 2 years ago that apprently fixed some cases but it clearly didn't fix all. Would love to hear more info about this from the devs, what is causing this awful performance on AMD cards? what can the players do to help the devs fix the issue?

    What do you want to see in DayZ 2024?

    I want to see: - improvements to gun handling, something similar to pre-0.63 days, guns not locked to the center of the screen, quickscoping nerf, running affecting sway, hold breath less instant if you've been running... - some basebuilding features/improvements (different wall/gate sizes) - improved zombie AI - another pass on the movement inertia, weight affecting more things - leg damage when falling, wall vaulting animation, weight affecting stamina regen... - Bottle suppressor nerf - it deserves a MASSIVE nerf, it's absurd how strong it is. Should be useless on high power rifles - anything bigger than 5.45 - spray paint And finally, fix for AMD cards to work properly on DayZ... Friend bought a RX7600 and he has worse FPS than my GPU from 2017... But I'll welcome any other improvements to the game.

    Remove Zoom By Default.

    I think zoom should stay, but it should be heavily nerfed to provide less zoom. down to like 25-30% of the current amount. Scopes/binos should be primary way of zooming.

    Update 1.23 general discussion

    Skybox and general lighting improvements. I don't think there's a single thing that I disliked this patch. Other than the bugs that occured - but most of those have been fixed for the experimental already. Why so many .308 rifles 😫 Don't get me wrong, I'm not hating on it. It's a fantastic gun but I feel like like 7.62x54mmR is now under-represented. Overall a huge W patch which shows by the amount of players playing the game. Many great additions (clothing items, dmr, field shovel), many great changes (skybox, launcher improvements, nwaf).

    DayZ Update 1.23

    I don't think we'll see anything like that in DayZ... ever.

    1.23 Update

    No idea but probably somewhere around 12-15 CET (central european time). Keep an eye on DayZ twitter tomorrow, they'll probably announce it hour or two before it goes live.

    1.23 Experimental Release

    If anything I feel like it's much easier to destroy a wooden wall irl than in the game.
