Did you even read OP? No, that's right, you didn't.

Look at this, just fucking look at this. THIS is what we get when we let those motherfucking crappy ass dick-loving bullshitting mainstream and casual gamer magazines review or even feature this game. Press coverage is a horrible fucking thing, I hope some of you learnt this lesson.

I - for one - enjoy these beautiful psychedelic WOOSH-WOOSH cones being drawn all over my screen. Then I get the munchies.

Makes sense, considering how the media does not give a single gently caress about the actual development.

The twitter is surprisingly lacking of actual DEVELOPMENT news though... I don't (a long with many others I could imagine) give two shites about who made a herpderpingly funny DayZ machinima video or what gaming magazine most recently conducted a mind-numbingly boring interview with Rocket.

Helicopters... You re-added the helicopters. Dear Rocket, I want to have a baby with you, possibly even two. I will name them Rockette and Rocketina.

Implying this is a bad thing...

I have long thought and pondered on the current respawn mechanics, ever since I first started playing and realized that I don't have to spend two hours two find my friend halfway across the map since I could just respawn 'til I got a Solnichniy spawn. Respawning and sitting at that loading screen for ages and ages again was a horrible element of tedium, my two alternatives are below. If not number 1, then for gods sake implement number 2 below; 1. Somehow choosing spawn location. Randomizing it within a couple hundred meters or so. At least let people find each other. 2. Remove the respawn mechanic, resulting in the spawn you get becoming the SPAWN YOU GET, until you die. After 2-ish months of playing I have realized that alternative number 1 is far superior. * Want to enjoy the world and game with your friends? Okay, then spend x amount of time to find your friends (the work) and THEN you can enjoy the game together until you die. Rinse and repeat. * I do realize that the obligatory "finding your friend is part of the fun hurr durr" argument will be made here, fine, it IS a valid argument. Just wanted to put this out there for weighing it against that previously mentioned obligatory argument.

Wow, this is absolute bullcrap... I have never disagreed or disliked anything on your changelogs 'til now. Oh well, I suppose I'll have to adjust, and start running from Kamenka to Cherno/balota to have some fun. The game just got a lot more tedious.

Disagree to everything in OP.

I count myself lucky, I've only had about 4 or 5 enemies ever DC on me over the month+ time I've played
