I'm quite disappointed of this being a ported map and seeing the same assets all over again. Please make a new map designed especially for Dayz with completely new assets. It would be could to have complexes that can be used as bases, like the stadium in Walking dead, a prison, factories, etc. Also the cities are quite boring to navigate in Dayz, cities are made of small buidings not connected to each other. Big buildings with holes and several entrances, roofs connected to others roofs, shopping malls etc makes a map much more enjoyable imo.

There are some vanilla private servers, I would love to see some official servers without server hopping though. The solution they implemented for server hopping moving the players to the coast seems logical to me, otherwise players would abuse this system hoping servers until they get a good inland spawn.

It would be nice something like, 45 secs/1 min online, and when you go to the main menu your character still stays loged in 30/45 secs more. And something like if you have been injured in the last 5 minutes or shots have been fired near you your log off timer would increase to 2 mins or something like that.

I like the idea, maybe pressing one key once for hold power would be better than holding a button down constantly, pressing W or S would release the "hold function". Another way could be W for increasing power until you release W and power wouldn't decrease. For example you press W until 30% power is reached then You release W key and the car keeps going at 30% power. Pressing S would decrease power. This would be like Red Orchestra tanks controller. This way should have an extra key for instantly releasing all the power because it takes time to release the power and sometimes You just want to release it at once.

It would be nice to have some unbinarized stuff as examples, for example one building with one working door and a ladder, with the materials, lods, textures and all the stuff necesary. Maybe one firegun, one melee weapon, in the future one car, etc... It's really hard to figure how to make stuff for the game without any example, I extracted the game data to take a look on how the models are done for the game but the editor doesn't open any of the models.

It's working now than you!, I didn't run the game since last update.

I get an error after running that command : WorkDrive- ERR: 0x50004003 The source is not a valid install of the game. ctx: undefined I have Stable version of the game installed, should I intall experimental version instead? I also tried to edit DayzTools settings.ini file to match where my folders are located with no luck: [Game] user=0 path=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DayZ [ProjectDrive] user=0 path=C:\Users\"MY USERNAME"\Documents\DayZ Projects [Tools] Hide=0 Mount=0

In PC also, maybe pressing ESC should show server name.

Also it seems like bases are gone ofter 3 days, I think barrels too. Some info would be great, is like hey! Beta is out!, it has basebuilding, some players spent a lot of time building, and storing and then everything is gone. I don't know what developers are thinking sometimes.... at least give the players info so they can expect basebuilding is just a placeholder right now...

For a Beta nothing seems to work properly, not combat or basebuilding, persistance, vehicles, zombies... I think a Beta should be like polishing minor bugs, but it seems every important aspect of Dayz is well broken right now.

I lost my barrels after 2/3 days, I doubt anybody took it :S

You can use a macro program for holding lclick down.

Nobody is denying that having a stable game for building on further should be done, but... calling it release 1.0 will bring lot's of players back to check on Dayz, and probably will bring more disappointing and bad reviews as the players coming back would expect a finished game. You can do the same without calling it release 1.0.

Well... I don't understand... really, I don't... The Dayz developers obsession for making things complicated when it should be the other way around wonders me...

It would be nice a MOD subforum like "THE ORIGINAL DAYZ MOD (ARMA 2)" has.

Yeah my bad :D , I was looking into DAYZ - PC section.

Nice Status Report! :D About the base building concept, please make the outer walls so You can walk on top of the walls, those turrets on the corners of the base are death traps imo, if You climb one of those to see who's lurking outside your base You probably will be easily shoot. Only a few spots for being able to see who's outside Your walls is not a good idea imo, please make the full walls walkable. I made this post about outer walls some time ago:

I think the problem was releasing the Alpha too soon but well everyone was claiming for Alpha in the forums so...

Hi, I think the log off timer is too short for a game like Dayz. I think it would be nice to have a 30/40 seconds of logging off while in game (like the video), being able to look around and cancelling the log off if you want (you would cancel the log off by moving your character, shooting punching, etc.) and when that first online count finishes your character would remain 30 secs more ingame, like it is now. The total count for logging off would be a minute or so (30s ingame + 30s offline). If you close the game on purpose (Alt+F4) for example you character would remain 1 min ingame.

3rd person view is like playing with wallhack ;P

I agree with the apples, the quantity of apples you get from a tree should be limited or the ability to retrieve apples from apple trees removed completely. Some apple trees should have no apples at all. Same for berries. Planting something in a garden grows to quickly too, like 10-15 mins. Zombies are spawning fresh kiwis also :P I don't really know about fishing right now but some time ago was too easy to obtain as many fish as you wanted. Food resources shouldn't be unlimited.

Robbery is a great addition to the game, but I think most bandits like to kill players more than getting his loot. I totally agree and understand Psychonaut_78, when you kill a bandit you like to have his gear, and see that all is ruined after kinda sucks. I like bandits and dumb bandits even more, I think Dayz would be really boring without them.

I like the new changes, I've heard they are going to distribute even more the military loot, I think that's a good thing for keeping the players moving around the map. I never liked it going to NW Airfield and Myshkino tents, some players are complaining about the "coast whatever" but I think the killing is even dumber in NW Airfield and Myshkino tents, most players just go there for doing PvP or camp the place all day long until they die, then repeat, I never had a friendly interaction there, on the other hand I had plenty on the coast, some times I joined with some players and headed inland together afterwards.

I think gear gets ruined too easy also and should be tuned down. I think bandits doesn't really care if the gear of the players they kill gets ruined, they are gonna kill anyway, some of them, mostly NW airfield and Myshkino campers, just kill players and don't even loot them, I guess because they are afraid of being killed by another camper. Others kills fresh spawns, surely not for their loot.

I think the quantity of ammo is fine, today after 5 hours or so of playing I had plenty of it, I just have been in Electro, Staroye, Msta and Shakhovka, I ended with 2 boxes of 9mm, 2 boxes of .380, 1 box of ACP, 2 boxes of 4.45, 2 boxes of 3.08 Winchester, 2 Gauge Buckshot and a 15Rnd Mag for the PM74 RAK. As for weapons I ended with one 1911 with one mag, one LongHorn and one Blaze 95, I found plenty more weapons that I dropped or didn't take, MP-133 Shotgun, IZH-43 Shotgun, PM73RAK, SKS, IZH 18 Rifle and a Repeater and 3 or 4 pistols. I stored some weapons in a barrel in experimental but the barrel was gone when I rejoined the server a few hours later, I guess I was playing in one of the Exp servers with the persistence off. I think if you are able to store ammo and weapons and there is bikes, motorbikes and cars there will not take so much time going to your camp for storing things, when all of this works fine I would like to see the quantity of ammo and weapons reduced even more.
