Problematic

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like? More serious; Fuck, teleporting zombies, as if I wasn't scared enough at night :( Even more serious: Sounds like a laggy server.

Not sure what I just watched, definitely random though.

I think the Dev team themself are testing if their way of setting up private servers externally actually works, before they let the public get their hands on untested files ;). I imagine it will get released when the patch get pushed to the public servers.

Maybe try it without restarting Steam? That's how I managed it. Check your steam if the Opt for Beta option is still selected in the Beta Programs tab, maybe restarting Steam resets that option or something? And yes, can confirm DE servers are down :(

^ They are, it's against the rules to promote not killing players as a server. For server rules, check this pinned topic: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/158966-dayz-standalone-server-hosting-rules-server-reporting/ One of them is Your server must NOT have a NO KILL policy

Have you tried hitting the refresh button at the bottom-right part of your screen in server list?

Can see them just fine, just not able to enter them due to them being full (no suprises there).

Nice! Hope they provide some more difficulty then the current zombies, really looking forward to seeing one of those. Also yeah, update only takes about 10 min over here, not really complaining.

Why are you posting a suggestion for the Standalone in the forum section that belongs to threads about the Mod? ;p

I personally don't expect it to go up until tomorrow. No ETA is almost never a good sign. Then again, they could find a magical bug fix the next minutes... You can never know.

Blurry vision can be a bug, but it could also mean your health is low. Health is not blood, Health regenerates after your blood is full and your water and energy levels are above a certain percentage. Try eating and drinking a lot to fix it. You can read more in-depth information on Health/Blood is in this guide made by Merino http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/159251-merinos-in-depth-video-guides-updated-jan-15th-understanding-sicknesses-and-surviving-poisoning/ (it's one of the lower videos) If it's the bug you can fix it by going to settings and clicking video options after logged in. Also you can shut down the effect entirely by turning off post-processing (also in video settings), it could also save you some fps but you'll have no indicator for your health.

Sad yet beautiful story :(

1. No, the patch for experimental branches were planned to be out today, but due to a unforeseen bug it's been delayed. 2. http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/165709-pending-changelog-experimental-branch-031114343/ for the whole list.

I've only had this occur to me one evening and that was (eventually found out) due to me overloading the server with the bags in bags exploit/bug. I had put several clothing items filled with other stuff in my backpack. When I removed the objects I had no problems seeing my friend. Also been having a lot fewer lag spikes since not bagceptioning. We actually spent about an hour figuring out the root of our problem, was really annoying to not be able to see him. Is it always you who can't see him or the other way around aswell? In our case he could always see me just fine, but I couldn't see him.

^ Very likely. Also I'd presume Monday AM to be somewhere in the morning guys, not right after 19th january's 12pm. Not sure about everyone's time region though.

I think someone has tried to create the humancentipede in DayZ... ...to what is, I guess, somewhat of a succes. (connecting bodies of multiple people and nasty stuff coming out of 1 person) Deeply disturbing in any case.

When you're low on blood your screen loses color, isn't that what you mean? If so, it's not a bug.

It's actually already ingame, but somehow fails to work for most people. Here is a topic containing a video from another forum user who described how to fix the problem when it's not working with the default 'T'. http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/164667-guidehow-to-toggle-semi-auto/

Sprays are incoming: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/165709-pending-changelog-experimental-branch-031114343/ Probably won't have all your described features functional (yet) though.

Can confirm this, never had any problems using ruined/bad quality medical supplies. Same goes for food in my experience, but maybe pristine beans give more stomach filling or something.

You do know players have to send information to the server to... uhmm I don't know... play the game, right? You always send information to the server in online games, a key stroke ís information, so by shooting, or walking, or eating a nice can of beans, you are sending information. This makes me think you: A: Don't know anything about game programming yourself. (very likely) B: Didn't care to explain it in a logical way. Either way, creating an account specifically to bash BI is just pointless.

I believe this was a feature in the mod for some time, if you'd acquired a compass and a map some servers would show your position. Don't think it's supposed to show up in any way in the Standalone though, which I like all the better - I love keeping track of where I am using the sun / sea as a compass.

Bad news for all you Guba lovers - the name Guba is actually the name of the bay close to the few buildings that will (probably) become Svetloyarsk in the next patch. I personally was really suprised by Dolina yesterday, been walking around in Chernarus since the days we were still waiting for vehicles in the mod (granted, have stopped playing for a while until alpha) and never quite got to seeing that place, always ended up going via Staroye in that area. Anyway, I really liked the quaint small town on the top of the hill with great views. Thinking about settling down there and maybe grow some crops on the surrounding open fields, protecting what I've got by shooting Bambi's running up the hill from Solnichny.

Yay a second video! This is now officially my favorite DayZ video series. Fucking loved the rubberband-thing while aiming in at the start. Also getting shot after missing that obvious headshot was hilarious to watch.
