New patch coming soon to dayz

[Maxgor 2314]

According to adventureconsulting broshure he could have cancelled in January (that was after it became clear that SA would be delayed) for 50% money back, the rest could have been reimbursed to him by BiS. it's pocket change compared to how much they are losing by release delays due to his absence.

Seeing that they are still heavily working on the game, I don't see his apparent trip being something that delays it all that much. Sure it might slow it down a tad, but it isn't like they've stopped working with him gone. I really don't fault him for wanting to do this major adventure while he can and planned a long while to do. Really doesn't seem to be the kind of person that lets matters of business drive his decisions. Losing some people that are ridiculously impatient wouldn't be much of a loss to him.

I don't care even if it delays for years. I have plenty of things to do until then, and I would still wait.

We are already seeing directs effects of Rocket's absence, the latest mod update release has been postponed pending his return. God knows what changes can not be commited to SA branch until then.

[leviski 2152]

We can only cross our fingers and wait.

How much money did Rocket charge you for his Mod!? Nothing.

How much money have you already paid for SA!? Nothing.

So what does Rocket owe you? Nothing.

SA will be finished when it is finished, updates for the mod will come when they are ready. Why should he miss out on an experience of a life time just because people to whom he owes nothing are whining. He shouldn't.

Everest ain't going nowhere, trust me. It's true that mod is free but TCO of owning it is not, and all of that money went to BiS. Rocket admitted in one of the interviews that he is now a very rich man (where do you think he got 100K for an Everest trip?). There is also a question of finishing up what you started, specicially when other members of your team depend on you. The latest mod patch finished and tested is now in limbo awaiting his return.

zombie melee damage from 15ft. away could be addressed as well, especially if they will be twice as powerful and have further aggro radius

Yeh I don't mind more powerful zombies if they don't f*ck about so much, hits from too far away, weird hitmarkers, taking deadly damaging but then still conitnuing to hit you then dieing, attacking through walls, the zig zagging, ramdomly spawning on you whilst you are in a bush in the middle of nowhere.

Zombies in theory should be stupid & predictable but at the same relentless and powerful.

Dont see why they should be predictable, to me they are each individual living humans driven insane by a virus, like an extreme type of Rabies, if anything they should be very unpredictable.

So an update for a free alpa test mod of a shooter from years ago will be released a bit later than it could be, I wouldn't ditch a 100k trip to Everest for that, I don't see why Rocket should.

How you can believe you're entitled to make demands of him - even if they're rhetoric - for a product you have not paid a penny for is beyond me.

Mod updates and the SA will come, in the mean time chill out and cut the guy some slack.

[jamieledgeway@hotmail.co.uk 216]

I don't get why you can 'Pre Release' it and not 'release it.'

His point is that the Mod is on freeze until rocket gets back,, there is a perfectly finished update that will never get here because the SA will probably be out by the time rocket gets back...

Err, no it won't. When Rocket get's back they're going to review the progress of the SA and then hopefully give us a release date.

[leviski 2152]

Thats why I said probably

I am well aware of the status of the mod.

My point is that we as players should be grateful for the product he has given us free, and not begrudge the man a holiday and amazing experience just because it means the update is a bit delayed. I am in no doubt that the Dayz project has given him endless stress and heartache is it really any wonder he would rather not cancel a 100k$ trip that'll give him some time and space to get his head together and no doubt stop him from loosing heart in the project.

I know that these attitudes of entitlement and spitting out rhetoric about how Rocket owes us something for nothing would certainly make me loose heart if I was heading the project.

Updates for the Mod will come, the SA will come. I'd rather them take their time and be in it for the long haul, than be hitting the code 24/7 and get burnt out.

Few new changes where testing.

Blood for all food types will no longer be instant its now done over time. Time and amount per tick is based on amount of dayz players survive. WIP

All food types now give diminishing returns for all food consumed within a certain time frame of each other. WIP

New object place system you should no longer be able to place objects in dumb locations ie Tents in logs. WIP

Again these are work in progress while we wait :-)

[jamieledgeway@hotmail.co.uk 216]

I hope the tent one works!! That would be great.

[ZlobaRUS54 441]

No more instant health restore from 10 cooked stakes, yes to anything that increases survival element.

What exactly are we waiting for?

[HIHBGaming 14]

What exactly are we waiting for?

As far as I know... Rocket to return from Everest. We got a bit of a wait ahead.

[leviski 2152]

Indeed that is what we are waiting for

[SmashT 10907]

[NEW] - 2 new stash sites. (tools required = Etool or Shovel. Items required = 1 sandbag for small 2 for medium) Small = 8 objects slots, no weapons, no bags. Medium = 16 Objects 1 weapon , no bags.

Interdasting, anyone got a screenshot of what these look like? Are they disguised better then tents?
