Genki Dama 49 Posted June 19, 2012 So far I have heard two great things about this new update!1. Melee weapons. This is going to allow us to play in a completely different way now. I can see many players rather than shooting players, instead cutting them down along with zombies. Also no more wasting ammo killing a cow :angel:2. Performance increase. We were promised this in the last two updates, but were unfortunately not working correctly. Rocket said that he has found the problem and I for one will be so delighted to see a performance increase :D my recording won't be as laggy. :heart:Anyway, what are you super excited about to see in this update.

Turin (DayZ) 3 Posted June 19, 2012 Melee weapons should be good as long as they're not too powerful or common. Otherwise they might take some of the urgency out of those situations where you're out of ammo and feel defenceless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's why mods are currently locking or deleting threads that have been created asking about these said FPS issues :) Don't worry I have faith that the problem will be resolved in this update ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AngryJonny 5 Posted June 19, 2012 I'm looking forward to the tone mapping.BIS went overkill on the brightness and contrast in the BETA patch. Night is just black now. You literally cannot play on a server if you spawn at night without torch/flares/chemlights/NVG.You should be able to play, but it should be difficult. It is actually impossible in its current form.

SneakyZombie 2 Posted June 19, 2012 Patch is out on Australian servers.:D First thing i wanna do is look for water canteen or soda because my player is so dehydrated he's drinking his own blood Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ingway 4 Posted June 19, 2012 Guys... i can't pick up the hatchet, found a server, found a bulding with the hatchet and it said it was too heavy, it dosn't occupy the tool slot anymore or maybe it's bugged, i had 6 slots avaliable on my bag, i can't be that heavy to carry.
