Man why don't we have a finished product yet? Oh yes that's right, calm down bro, they said small vehicles possibly by Christmas (bicycles yo! Technically a small vehicle) so let's all just wait and see what happens, nothing on the map worth a vehicle yet. Later there will be I'm content to wait (plus Destiny beta yo)

Well, I have 2 things to say. 1: I agree that the pace is a bit slow, however you have to remember Bohemia Interactive isn't a huge studio. They have little staff, so obviously things are going to go slower. 2: I also agree vehicles should have been a bigger priority, but these guys are right. I would rather have good, working vehicles then glitch buggy ones. Once they add vehicles and fix the problems with zombies/add more zombies, this game will be damn near flawless.

Well walker, well I am KIND of with you on questioning what the Devs have been doing, as I think any responsible consumer should do, I think you're taking it a bit too far. I mean they literally have to do a lot of the vehicle work from the ground up, and they have been working on a lot of other things. I mean it's like someone up there said (i am too lazy to look), the devs even said it'd be one of the last things they finish. So just chill out, find some stuff to do in-game in the mean time, and just try to be a LITTLE more patient. uuuuh....why don't you want vehicles? just curious.

We all want vehicles as much as the next dayz player.. The team has been busy with other core aspects of the game such as the basic framework, first we had the modular inventory, network bubble, then later physics, navmesh, ragdoll. When they are added, Vehicles will be functionally, one of the most important aspects of DayZ, along with persistant storage, then after that Barricading. There are a million complications that slow down a development aspect such as this. How will the network bubble respond to a helicopter loading in a team of eight players all at the same time, flying into another players bubble? How will vehicles react with the newly implemented Physics engine? What significance does the Modular inventory system have for vehicles? My point here, is that these questions need to be answered long before development of vehicles even begins. That is why the development of vehicles has started so long after the launch of the Alpha back in December. This expands on to my next point: If anything I think that it is a good sign that Vehicles have recently been announced as being started. It means that many of the other behind the scenes things are nearing a close and we are ready to start seeing more functionality and content. Tents (and other persistent storage types) are being added to the game soon and that will make for a different experience. I understand the concern, I can't wait for Vehicles either, but nobody will be able to say anything other than - 'you have to just wait'. We'll be getting pretty substantial update to Stable soon, and I think this will be enough to tide many of us over for a while. Tl:DR; You have to construct a building from the bottom up, without the foundations at the bottom, the floors at the top would not exist. Other things in the Alpha development have been required to be completed in order to even let vehicles be an option at this stage.

Moped's... that's the extent of the vehicles imho that belong in this game. Loud, stinky, prone to breaking down...just saying.

There are more important things than Vehicles right now. I don't blame them for not working on them. They still need to change the game's engine

Honestly mate i don't see the problem in them just NOW starting to work on vehicles when there was so much early game breaking shit that honestly took precedence over a freaking Pick up truck or humvee. let the devs do their job if they wanna take there time to polish something and make it perfect then freaking let them. id rather have something that works as its supposed to then some half assed piece of coding.

Ummmmm not to sound like an asshole...... But if the game can't even let us hit a weapon hot key and be expected to work... (smashing number button to pull your sidearm)... then how in the hell can you say that adding vehicles to this game will be easy for them? Have you played DayZ yet? Have you not seen all of the core problems? Nothing is simple for this game to work right. When I played Pong on the Atari 30 years ago as a little baby, the controls were 100 times more responsive. What world do you live in?

And physics? We don't want all vehicles to be like DayZ mod's ATV.

No. I agree with you. What I was saying is that if zombie problems were really a priority to the company, they would have been fixed by now. Just my opinion so I can of course be wrong. But I agree with you that it would be better to fix core before vehicles. Thank you for the good points.

Ok, You have a good point there. I don want them to fix the zombie clipping first. So I agree. Thank you for adding a good point. The desync and zombie glitching and all the client side problems are the first big ass problems. I agree. So maybe they can't work on vehicles until the other stuff is fixes. I rest my question now.

Because vehicles were NEVER the main priority. Id rather they get everything else down first before working on that crap.

I don't see it as a problem since it's still early in the development phase, this is as expected. Starting on vehicles seems to be appropriate and we don't really know when we expect to see them but I would like it if they took their time to make it perfect. Comparing to Arma 2, it was very clunky, buggy(especially ATV's), and plenty of other issues that can go on.

That's pretty freaking convenient if we just all of a sudden don't want vehicles..... The dev team must love people like you. No one said we need 100 Heli's and 100 cars on restart. And besides, what the hell have they been working on all this time if not vehicles? We have seen very little core progress. Are you not at least curious what they have been working on in terms of core? In a real world scenario...... There would be working vehicles. Why do you want a fake survival game with no vehicles?

i dont want vehicles... they have also stated that vehicles will be one of the last things they do.... Glad they are not spinning their wheels on that but are instead adding a host of other new features

Looking for regular players to come and join our brand new server, looking for PVE & PVP players, we want a whole range of players on the server. We need comments and suggestions to be able to change for the better! Looking at getting a forum up and running, but I'am happy to discuss issues and changes over Teamspeak or just a chat via Steam. What we are tying to do with the server is get it as balanced as possible, nothing too over the top and not just vanilla. We need your help to test and adjust the server to perfection! Come be part of the building of a brand new server. Lets look at some of the features and how they are currently setup:300+ VehiclesBase Spawn Setting (On request to the admins)Build Snap ProPlot For LifeSpawn SelectionDeploy BicycleCustom AI Base (With awesome rewards)Custom AI MissionsSuicide OptionTrader Safe ZonesCustom Trader AreasRegular Trader Items/Price UpdatesCustom AirfieldsRemote UnlockIndestructible Bases50m Plot PolesImproved LootFree refuelTow & LiftSo lets now talk about how the mods are currently setup (Even though you are bored by this point!)All vehicles have been added onto the traders for sale, So any vehicles you find out there in the wastelands will be sell-able. Vehicles with guns have been removed from spawning around the map but can be found in the hero/bandit traders or can be found in AI missions. There are no tanks on this server, so please do not ask for one.We have Enhanced spawn selection installed on the server, but we have removed inland spawn options at the moment, so can only spawn on the shore. There is a land spawn or halo drop option. This is subject to change depending on how the users feel about shore spawn only. There is also a choice of a random spawn option.Tired of running everywhere? Well no more, you will start with a toolbox and with a right click on this toolbox you will be able to spawn a bicycle to get around on and long as you don't damage the bicycle too much, you will be able to repack it.AI missions are a work in progress at the moment and will be working to make the spawns much more customized, there a few added extra mission right now, that break up the standard boring missions. Suicide option with just a right click from the inventory, no more suicide mistakes using the scroll wheel!We have 400m safe zones setup around the main trading areas and a 200m safe zone around the hero/bandit traders. Also fully customized trader areas.I have constantly working on the trader items in the database, to get the prices fair and all the items sell-able. I will take requests of price adjustments but they have to be reasonable.SWAF/NEAF and NWAF have been completely redesigned for a much better experience. NEAF and NWAF both have aircraft dealers for ease of selling aircrafts.Its a shame that I can't get the master key mod working on the server at the moment due to the 1.0.5.1 upgrade, but we do have remote unlock for vehicles installed. Which I feel is a nice touch, but will be looking to get master key working again.Snap build pro has been installed and allows for much better base building and with plot for life, no more adding and removing plot poles when you die.Indestructible bases are active at the moment but may change which items are indestructible and which are not going to be.Plot poles have been increased to 50m and we are looking into getting zombie free bases installed.Loot tables are constantly being worked and changed, again we will take suggestions on this front and will look to change loot chances or add items.At service points there is free refuel but auto repair, so you will have to either buy the parts or get out there and find some fixes. Don't be lazy XDTow & lift has been setup so only 1 car can be towed at a time and only correct vehicles can tow certain vehicles, it has been balanced.Don't think anyone will have read this far, but thanks anyways!

Can't wait for vehicles to be implemented to read all the complains "I could totally build a car from a scrap if I had engine, some wheels and metal parts"

Hmmm strange arma 2 arma 3 and dayz all had xbox360 controller support but it seems since last update it no longer recognizes a controller(well atleast not a 360 wireless one). I would upvote the bug i put on the tracker as it is a bug as game is listed as partial controller support(360 controller) its actually very easy to play this game via a controller for me i always found the best result was to use the games own inbuilt profile for it and then adding the other functions onto it via xpadder( made moving around so much smoother the transition form walk run sprint being merely push further on the thumb stick much smoother and more practical than hiting shift and doubleW. It seems the mouse acceleration has been changed but for a long time with the totally fucked negative acceleration Dayz had it was actually easier to aim with a controller than a mouse ( doesnt seem that way anymore though ) Yes i play dayz with a controller why because i play in my lounge sitting my old ass in my leather recliner chair kick back relax and watch it up on a 75 inch samsung 3d 200 htz tv, also once vehicles come in the controller makes piloting a chopper driving a car way better than keyboard and mouse and anyone trying to say other wise would be an idiot.(seriously for infantry controller K@M is better but for vehicles the controller is vastly better) I was always willing to loose the small amount in infantry fighting as it is generally CQB fights where you suffer with the lack of aiming speed a mouse has but then as most of my engagements are at distance via stealth it never troubled me much lol. EDIT damn checking the steam page again they have now removed the partial controller support seems it has been intentional back to K@B for me then damn it all going to hate when they put helicopters and cars in 8(...

1. Get the mod. Get on the server without extra added vehicles, then come back and talk. Majority of people will have to stick to running when going form place to place. What do you expect? Fully repaired vehicle next to you whenever you spawn? 2. I'm talking about the weight. Anything that offers any decent protection will mostly be made of metal plates. Chain armour takes a crapton of time to make so I don't think we have it in SA. 3. Topic title: "Craftable armour". Are you saying you can craft modern combat armour in a shed using some basic tools and materials?

1: won't matter after vehicles are implemented2: plate? Really? Cause anyone uses that anymore, chain actually has several modern uses 3: most combat Armour today is designed to be as light and effective as possible

Persistent Storage is a feature in which, a player can drop down certain storage items like Tents, or the trunks of Vehicles (In Epoch, there are also lockboxes) that would store as a safekeeping area for items. These storage compartments (like tents) could be raided and stolen from by other players, or destroyed with explosives or ran over by a vehicle (in the case of tents. Vehicles just had to be destroyed). The thing about these storages though is that, after your own player character's death, you could go back to your persistent storage (vehicle/tent) and retrieve your stored items. So, many people used it as a "dead man's switch" so that they could be re-armed extremely quickly upon death. But, tents and cars aren't marked, so you had to memorize their location. These persistent storage areas can only be accessed in the server they were used in, so you can't hop public servers or private hives and expect your stuff to be there. In public servers, you keep your inventory contents, but your tent stays on the server it was placed.
