Tundra and ak74 is a realistic setup because ak mags and ammo is common. But tundra and m4 is the ideal scenario

?

Never mind. It told us nothing

All you do is moan

Happens for me too

80% disagree. Boats are part of the map and the map, consisting of islands (albeit empty are pointless ones), require a boat to get around. It is part of the experience. If you allow a squad to stash a boat and then dont return to the game for a few days, that is a negative experience for everyone involved. I understand what you say; in reality they would be hoarded. But you need to find a good balance. I think 48 hours is still too long.

In a recent interview Thales said the hope is for pc and console to have the same experience, Thales was also optimistic that console dayz will eventually get mods in the ''near future'', and that progress is being made in talks with Sony regarding this, as Sony have generally been opposed to modding in the past. Now all this sounds generally positive, does it not? It wasnt wishful thinking like "maybe one day". The statements made clearly showed there is work being done, or an aim to eventually get mods on console Well in the livestream today Marks said theres no plans to have modding on console. So we have Thales saying they're in talks to hopefully get mods on console. Whereas Marks is saying theres no plans. These statements clearly contradict eachother. The interview was in recent weeks, so unless something has changed in that short space of time? Can we get some official clarification from the devs please? I need closure. Thanks

Anything to say devs?

Hi devs im surprised to see this didnt appear in the patch notes for 1.27?? Perhaps you ran into technical difficulties, so we should probably be seeing it in the following update? I imagine its all hands on deck in the offices, your brightest and most talented minds working together, night and day, to craft a revolutionary feature of a HUD TOGGLE FOR CONSOLE. As always we await with great anticipation. It must be a monumental undertaking to develop because its been a while since myself and others in this thread have demanded its creation. But i have absolutely no doubt that you are all working hard on it. So for that, i thank you.

Smoking can temporarily reduce sway when aiming down sights, and heat buff, and perhaps give you quicker stamina drain, or something. Theres definitely a cool feature that can be done with it

I think they just dont have the manpower to make significant changes. Which is a shame because looking at player count breaking records all the time, dayz needs a little more attention and a few more staff. DayZ 2 wouldnt live up to the hype imo. It wouldnt have the soul that dayz has, and looking at reforger with the goofy character models somehow worse than dayz, we just need an engine upgrade but itll never happen.

Never gonna happen. We'd get dayz before this. Maybe in about 10 years

Now that the dust has settled. How do you guys feel about Sakhal? Does it offer the quintessential dayz experience for you? Does it have that same magic and charm?

How can you complain about the attention its getting? They've been putting out free updates for over 10 years. Its been quiet lately because theyve been working on sakhal. And how can you complain about the price when youve been playing since near the mod days? How many hours of entertainment have you gotten out of the one off payment for the game? I agree about the recent update though. Taking guns out of maps is utterly ridiculous. They should be adding content not taking away. Theyre cleaely trying to encourage map hopping to get certain guns but whos going to go through that effort? Spawn on chernarus to a random location, find a tundra for example, jump back to livonia to a random location, and get back to your original plans. Inventory nerfs i support but this recent update is ridiculous. Sakhal feels empty too but i hear they are still working on adding things.

Hi devs just checking in to see how progress is coming on implementing this? Must be close to getting finalised? As we've discussed, a simple button to toggle hud on and off, i think even someone from care in the community could manage to do that in an afternoon

Why? Just deal with it. It makes traversing forests more anxiety inducing and exciting

I think theyre still catering to the obsolete old gen consoles. We really need an upgrade on view distance. Im sure current gen could handle it

I did read it but you suggest their health still drops, and a hardcore map like this, itll still be certain death as there wont be enough masks to be found. Coastal loot is sparse because people are having to spend so much time there, and also with the hit to the inventory capacity people wont want to have to carry a mask anyway. The biggest flaw is the visual aspect though. Dayz wont be able to have simulated volcanic eruptions

Couple queries from me, Ash falling from the sky is possible ofc, but what does the volcano visually look like during the eruption? Bare in mind i dont think they can simulate a volcanic eruption on their frankenstein engine. They cant simulate visual heli crashes so i dont think volcanic eruptions are on the cards. Sakhal by design makes players slow down their travel, every 5-10 minutes a fire is needed. So how would 45/50 people get the chance to find a gas mask and filters, within 15 minutes? Its basically certain death for the vast majority of players, and i dont think that makes for interesting gameplay because it cant be avoided in most cases, so would just become very tedious. Its an interesting idea. Dark skies and raining ash would make for atmospheric visuals, and ive thought personally how an eruption could work, but i dont think it's possible. Not unless they made the volcano eternally smoking, and made like a localised area around it that you need a mask to go inside the perimeter, and within the perimeter the skies are darker with ash. (This wouldnt make sense though because ash would realistically be covering the whole island) Incentives being good loot or some **mission**, and move the player spawns down south so you need a mask and better gear to move up into the northern regions.

So whats the deal with the constant server issues in all the sakhal servers im playing? Is this to do with the amount of fires people are making? If so thats a huge blunder; to design gameplay around making fires and yet the servers cant potentially handle it.

Thanks. Thats good atleast they are trying to sort it. Seems to be a problem with rendering, even at close distances.

Are the devs working on a fix to the low res snow textures? They appear square and grid-like, as if the textures havent loaded in. This also seems to affect dirt textures as well. This problem occurs at close range within 10 metres. So i assume this isnt the desired end result as this problem doesnt occur on chernarus and livonia. Thanks

Is anyone else seeing very poor snow textures on hills in Sakhal? Grid-like, low resolution snow patches on the ground. Playing on series X

I took a day off work tomorrow to play sakhal, if it doesnt get released till evening time ill be livid lol.

You imbecile. They are advertising the expansion to thousands of players. Why do you think popular youtube channels get early access to showcase a game before release, and not some random chump with no platform?
