It seems you only play official servers, some community servers have already tackled a lot of these issues. All official would maybe need is increased logout timer like 1 minute to stop combat logging being a issue, I'm sorry but your suggestions are horrible. Default controller layout is fine, and with 7k+ hours playing it's fast easy and efficient can even manage entire inventory while walking easy. The only thing I agree with is leaning and only leaning right not left, leaning right is annoying and clunking feeling with my long arse fingers and compromises my gun play, leaning left fine and comfortable for me.

You are right vanilla or hardcore community servers are far and few between on xbox too. Boosted loot, non tiered progression loot, infinite stamina, unlimited breath holding, infinite power attacking, raid times, base damage on and off times, base ping radar via discord, heatmaps, bounty tracking, traders, item or resource spawns via donations, and so much more is: Absolutely cringe, easy mode and nothing but crutches to cater to the casuals, takes away fear of death, attachment to life, loot or tactics, apocalyptic feel or survival simulation. It makes me sick the vast majority play servers like this console and pc... @lakevu Is spot on with a lot he says and has great ideas to make DayZ great again.

That is a great thread you've created, Just know there's some console players out there that agree with a lot you say and ideas you have, Just let me touch on controller a little, the look speed and aim speed on controller can be fine tuned independently, Vertical and horizontal can be fine tuned independently, Curvature can be fine tuned independently, It was not always this way and DayZ use to be way harder on a controller a overly sensitive jittery mess it has came a long way. Also console can use m&k we just can't remap keys. As for all the advance controls Arma 2 had so much more can be implemented on a controller via key binds or simply expanded menus via d-pad with added player functions, in that regard I disagree controller not holding the game back, devs holding the game back not implementing more game functions via controls.

First and foremost it is a sandbox game with no official lore or cause of the outbreak that caused there to be "infected" they not zombies. Early lore was mutated rabies disease and players "survivor's" are immune, can see teeth bite mark bruises on some infected, it's how it was spread, the infected don't eat people, more or less just rabid enraged infected humans, that have bad eye sight and mostly aggro'd by sounds, which kind of makes sense why they stop attacking while K/O'd which I don't mind to be honest. But that lore is no longer canon to be aligned more with sandbox game and feel. Write your own lore or come to your own conclusions for cause of apocalypse, and current state of humanity after apocalypse started The creative minds and server owners sometimes write their own lore and implement it on their servers via custom areas or quests, there's of course mods too, but a lot can be achieved without mods and just simply a discord for story writing, quests, and custom areas for server. One server I played has a lot of lovecraftian lore tied in via methods above no mods. - - - I do agree infected easy to fight via standing on things or using windows I also feel this meta needs to change, via infected being able to climb things and knock down doors, There is some variety to infected types, wouldn't mind more and currently helmets don't protect infected well still die easy vs a sharp item even with helmets. I'd personally like to see infected wild life even if rare, deers, goats, rams, that will attack, even maybe a more stronger rare version of infected wolves or bears. And imagine something horror related that stalks the woods like a wendigo, skinwalker or such... --- I hope you receive this feedback well and can help you tailor your suggestions better.

As title says please give us a console community server, "1st Person Only Search Filter" I ask like every update on various forms of social media and on experimental or stable update threads on forums, now I'm making a dedicated suggestion post for it. "I beg please make this a thing" 🙏 This would be a huge quality of life improvement for us on console. There is nothing worst then being a 1st person only player, trying to find new servers to try and play and if title doesn't include various abbreviations of 1st person only, having no clue what you are joining if 1pp/3pp or only 1pp, to then end up in a 3pp/1pp server and have to quit because not preferred preference, with no prior knowledge before joining.

Yeah I agree would be interesting maybe not so much for official branch especially with dupers, that's why community servers are king at least can combat cheaters or hackers a bit more then battle eye, and server can be tweaked or managed to anyones liking.

DayZ is a community a big family a niche game, in a sense devs are part of that family too "imo" and a small team at that, if only talk crap to people and devs your feedback will never gain traction, constructive criticism is one thing, toxic rants nobody will care food for thought.

I feel you intentionally write so much bs for anyone that chooses to reply has to unpack so much, but at the end of the day your ideas and interpretations are no better or wrong then anyone else's... At the end of the day it's a sandbox game the start of apocalypse is purposely left open to interpretation for the sandbox feel, Example early lore was mutated rabies disease and players aka survivors are immune, but that lore was intentionally canned for sandbox feel, write your own story. There is a video you waking up on beach if never saw before, at least how got there you can interpret how ever you want. You are exaggerating with the effort to get nbc gear as you've said you've read my comments elsewhere Ive already mapped out that meta. You are exaggerating with base building, but I'll agree if you are purely a solo player as you brushed over other guys comment too if have friends ease's and streamlines the process but you'd rather say cheaters like the boy who cried wolf. You are right there are downsides of having a base as eventually all buildings get checked and even if just in woods sticks out like a sore thumb. Arguably the smaller the base the better, even just a tent in the woods inside a pine tree cluster like a large tent with camo net or two, green medium tent camo net, brown canopy tent camo net no walls or flag, try it some time my record 9 months never found high pop server using same spot even if wipes, especially if avoid parts of woods between 2 poi's to limit potential of foot traffic. If I really had to take a dig at you which isn't nice but you do it, I'll sum up a lot of what you say with: If there is no end to the apocalypse "wipe" then you aren't playing a apocalyptic game you are trying to play a third world country survival simulator xD your last death is technically end of story before wipe 😁 As for time spent in game since you care so much I have 7k+ hours playing since July 2020 this includes time in menus but came to game with tons of prior knowledge as I have watched game since mod days 2012 and followed development cycle whole time of standalone since 2013 like yourself I also have health problems the past 10 years so why it took me so long to get game. The question is do you even read everything people say or have your mind so set in stone pre meditated answers with no influence from others considered? But lest we worry about if devs even read the forums, maybe they don't consider your feedback worthy of the time as you don't appreciate others inputs and only serve to pick them apart overly opinionated... Maybe it's just a skill issue problem "joking" 🕊️

Official servers wipe roughly every 4-6 months mostly depending on major CLE changes or Map Changes. Imo which is long enough for the long game feel and for people to experience beginning of apocalypse. I can't imagine a vanilla server never wiping would be a lag fest of mega bases or abandoned bases everywhere till they decay with also being a troll fest of people literally blocking off access to many vital areas lol 😆 I believe the devs wipe cycle of roughly 4-6 months is a good balance to please the masses.

Badly Damaged and Pristine Armor provides the same damage and shock protection until ruined. Only footwear that can use duct tape is wellies rubber boots. "Repairing all other shoes with duct tape was removed from game ages ago" You can not repair footwear or clothing beyond worn, only rag shoes and clothing. "Possibly soft skills let you repair other stuff beyond worn, but in 7k hours playing I've never hit that threshold" So idk if myth or not.

I won't extremely pick apart your opinions because I appreciate all opinions and feedback even if doesn't align with mine. Aug Ax, Svd, Lar becoming gas zone only does suck 100% agree. Suppressors being rare and gas zone only is great, if they too easy to acquire and everyone and their mother had one, you'd never hear gun shots, have experienced this high pop where they everywhere to loot, even way before network bubble gun sound bug was a thing and fixed. Bottle suppressors shouldn't even exist or be a thing, so fake and a meme. Gas zone while hated by many is easy, spawn berezino loot both medical places and fire station, if don't have full set go to NEAF medical tents, epi-pen into gas jump on container farm infected for more filters, loot every single container inside and outside of boat walk out gas zone nearby as a fresh spawn with some of best guns easy lol. 🤣 "It is dumb TBH, but that update was to increase foot traffic inland and back to coast, just like helicopter sounds increase chance of pvp, and dynamic gas strikes push people out into the open". That whole update was to truly just increase chance of crossing paths with other players. South west evac and Zelenogorsk both tier 3, I think floor spawning plates tier 4 only and only 2 floor spawns? But you forgetting heavy military zeds having chance to have plate too, albeit they don't spawn often. Helicopters, military trains, and military convoys will still be somewhat viable to loot if find one rather then purely skipping TBF.

New update 1.23 so here I am to beg for QoL feature again 🙏

Please I beg "like every update" add, 1st Person Only Search Filter for community servers would be huge QoL addition for those who wish to play 1pp only, not all servers list 1pp or 1pp/3pp in title. Nothing worst then trying new servers to have to join and quit if not your desired perspective ughhh 😔

I understand your point but still if PC players hated movement and gunplay so much a large majority of servers would run the gunplay mod, and majority of big streamers would love it not a minority. Noobs and casuals will always exist regardless of platform and or if is multiple platform or PC only, taking aim at and solely blaming console player base is silly.

Ok I'll relay info to server owner and get back to you. Albeit these areas were created before 1.22 and working as intended SpookyArea gas maybe update changed them, although off because still appears as white fog.

I agree and disagree but first and foremost wrong for blaming console, hate the game not the players. Console was mentioned and planned as far back as 2013 by Dean Hall in interviews. Source "The Escapist" and while that article doesn't exist no more traces of it can be found on the web along with Dean Hall quotes. https://www.polygon.com/platform/amp/2013/4/2/4173288/dayz-console-release-almost-certain-creator-has-met-with-sony So it's false to say dumbed down for console since console release, when console was planned all along... Now to speak for console players, we wouldn't mind a more hardcore experience with movement and gunplay would welcome it with opening arms, and over the past year or two that is the direction game is going, You can't lean run no more, inertia is a thing now albeit not super noticable yet the changes are there and can even be tweaked by server owners. Now counter to popular belief console doesn't have a aim assist feature like PC players think vs players, it does have a aim assist feature for zombies but it is completely crap and turned off by 99% of players as it only works up to 10meters snaps to torso not ideally head will fight you if try to aim higher, and half the time when dealing with multiple zombies will snap to non intended zombie target rather then one you aiming for trash. Id argue game feels so easy because you PC players play on M&K which is just point and click dumbed down. As on a controller full auto KAM, or LAR gun control and recoil is no joke we have no assists and play the same game as you'll on PC and we can use M&K too. If PC truly wanted a more hardcore experience every single server would run gunplay mod but only a small minority do and even some of the biggest DayZ streamers hate it. Look albeit I'm a console player I have watched and followed game since late 2012 slightly before standalone release, with 7k+ hours play time on console And agree with some things OP has said, I would welcome, huge inertia tax and delayed ads after stop running and trying to aim, delayed ads in all situations, getting rid of or mega nerfing drop shots I think a very slow animation would be cool like dropping to knee first, get rid of aiming and shooting while rolling. Again don't hate the player hate the game. But it is true with experience game does get super easy and players become only threat. But saying that all platforms there still is Bambi's dying a million times, contracting various diseases often not knowing about prevention or natural cures or med system, being broken by game and quitting so it's a hard balancing act for devs to balance for new players and veteran players.

Granted I understand why you want it to organize inventory better.

You truly don't want this in my opinion on console it is more prone to being bugged creating ghost space where a item can't be placed in bugged slots unless relog, also let's say you have a Mosin and would like to place it in a 63 slot bag it won't fit albeit that's more realistic factor on PC but on console we have luxury of, if have say 30 of 63 available it will fit and not be dependent on grid size placement.

No, literally the, type "SpookyArea", is acting as if it's "ContaminatedArea_Static" these areas where created prior to 1.22 and worked as intended just white fog, now they are still white fog but inducing bleeds, coughing, gas poisoning.

Gun shots seemed to not be heard from other players at range until close enough.

On console community servers, custom areas using the white fog from Halloween event is acting as if it's toxic gas.

Please add 1pp/3pp search filter for console community servers browser 🙏QoL QoL QoL

Thank you very much for the update, I shall try to ask as I do every update on social media but here instead, please add a 1pp/3pp search filter toggle option on console for community servers. There is nothing worst then looking for a new server to try to then join it and not the perspective you are looking for it's hard enough to find 1pp servers as is, please add this feature it would be a huge quality of life change. <3

A multitude of bugs Xbox ^
