I need more info on this, any other private hive person agree? What does this MEAN for Private Hives? Can we no longer correct things with our MySQL powers?!?

[jaytmuk (DayZ) 621]

Pls pls get rid the icons and hud pls Rocket :)

Sounds and animations would be a better indication for blood level, food level etc etc

Until that happens, I am really digging the look of these new icons. The temperature one especially, since it always seems to be a shade of white for me and never gives me particularly useful information. Having bright red food and or water always looked out of place too. Until they're removed, I can get behind these all green ones.

except there is no way to compensate for everything with sounds and animations.

I love the new HUD icons and am really looking forward to the new combat logging bots too.

As for removing the HUD, I wouldn't mind that being an option, but I like the HUD. It's very minimal and blends in well so I've never found it bothersome. Sounds, on the other hand, I don't think I'd like. Would my guy pant every 20 seconds when thirsty? Would my stomach grumble when hungry? Based on my experiences with sound notifications in other games I've found the novelty wears off quickly and the noises become so annoying I'm begging for a small, soundless HUD replacement instead.

An even better solution than toggling the HUD via the options menu would be to have a HUD activation key. Press a button, the HUD appears. Press it again it goes away.

[BCaused 49]

I quite like the HUD, just wish there was a way for me to see my humanity.And the bots will be amazing! :D

And as for the new weapons I think that is amazing! DayZ doesn't have much AR's and the G36 has to be one of my favorite, Don't get me started on the M40A3 :3

What I worry about is the constraint though, unless the means it's blocking in-game players from writing their own stuff somehow to the DB... That must be it, like an additional createVehicles block.

And yes, the HUD is amazing.

But even more amazing: Zombies spawning around vehicles, hitting vehicles, and pulling survivors out. That is cool.

Im hoping it dosnt stop players from writing to the database, it will break our custom base building mod :(

[Apina (DayZ) 32]

Moar zombies and they spawn while in vehicles and they gonna mike tyson you off atv cycle and bike while hating you with they infection filled jazzhands. I think this will be an interesting update. :D

[Play (DayZ) 123]

That's something interesting added recently:

* [NEW] - Added Markers for all towns (1)

* [NEW] - Added player marker (1)

* [NEW] - New zed & loot spawn systems reworte Phase 1.

[WilkoZ 8]

Hmm this one worries me > [NEW] - Wreck locations are now marked on the map (1). although not 100% sure what that means :|

[FinalNinja447 129]

* [NEW] - Added Markers for all towns (1)

* [NEW] - Added player marker (1)

* [NEW] - New zed & loot spawn systems reworte Phase 1.

Maybe someone here knows better on the subject than me.... What sort of Markers? Some kind of beacons?

Same goes to the player one... is it supposed to act like a squad based marker like in Wasteland?

And the third one hell if I know...

[Sutinen 635]

Yeah, I'm really confused.. What do they mean by markers?

There is another one that I don't understand:

* [uPDATED] - Zeds will talk to other zeds within 100 meter.

I'm playing at wireworld which runs 1.7.5 version and the newest helicrash site (when it spawns) is visible on the map as 'Secure helisite' or something like that. When a new helicrash comes the old mark will disappear and show the current. Helicrashes will not despawn even the mark disappears. I think it is pretty cool feature.

[dgeesio 1034]

when is this to be released ?

Upstream hive (public hive):

thats the entire changelog as i see it so far

[klesh 2423]

I'm playing at wireworld which runs 1.7.5 version and the newest helicrash site (when it spawns) is visible on the map as 'Secure helisite' or something like that.

That sounds kind of lame to me. Half the fun of Heli crash sites is going out looking for them.

There is another one that I don't understand:

* [uPDATED] - Zeds will talk to other zeds within 100 meter.

Thats an odd one too. Maybe a zombie who agro's on you will cause other zombies within 100m of them to agro on you as well?

[Cdrive 60]

That sounds kind of lame to me. Half the fun of Heli crash sites is going out looking for them.

Yea I gotta agree. Although it would create new random hotspots around the map, it's one of the most potent loot spawns in the game and almost always guarantees a nice weapon so it should be hard to find.

Not to mention it kind of goes against the 'natural' dynamic that Rocket is aiming for. Things automatically popping on the map is kind of a step in the wrong direction.

That would ruin low-noise weapons.. That would mean that if you use a Makarov and one zombie aggroes, it will cause a chain reaction of the entire town chasing you.

That means that everytime they say "Fuck that hurts" near by zombies will be more careful! :lol:
