October Round-up: #DayZDaily

[Sensemann 145]

I guess this is a question about the technical meaning and not about the release date

 

 

it means that in arma2  the client had access to information about  the blue area ( complete map) while now the client has only access to info about an area like the red circle....should be obvious what this means

 

Hey, that actually makes perfect sense! Thanks for opening my eyes.

[RedNome 443]

You guys are insane, the way some of you twist and dissect every little word uttered by Rocket just goes to highlight why he chose to go silent for so long on social media.

 

He really can't win in anything he says.

[ZlobaRUS54 441]

" as we won't release it until multiplayer performance is stable and acceptable enough to provide useful feedback."

 

 

i wonder what this might mean exactly ?

are they still experiencing that severe performance problems that its not ready to go alpha yet ? i wonder if/how bad it is then...

 

just a thought but :   if its really bad performance thats stopping them from going alpha it must somehow be even worse than than the Dayz arma2 mod..

 

which in other word would mean they changed engine,did the mp architectural change, developed the network bubble, redid zombies, all to make the game MORE performant yet somehow they  achieved quite the opposite ?!

 

I agree, MP performance in the A2 Mod was quite acceptable for an Alpha, what could they have possibly done to ruin it so badly? Is it server-generated zombies, the object-orientation system?

[ZlobaRUS54 441]

Well this is just my opinion but I think it is pretty safe to say that an October public alpha is out of the question.

 

That is quite a huge window to miss. Yes obviously a holiday is not going to be any primary factor to decide to let an alpha. However, October is typically the most popular month when it comes to monsters and other horror based media.

 

So again in my opinion my guess is that either.

 

A) A major flaw was revealed in testing that could compromise the quality of feedback from early alphas.

 

or

 

B) They are killing so many bugs at such a rapid rate that there simply is no reason to go public alpha just yet.

 

or

 

C) The Dev team can't stop saying "MY PRECIOUS!" and/or comparing their characters in the closed alpha.

 

 

Sooo....

 

Zombie Turkeys?

 

C) maybe likely, this is kinda typical server admin behavior from the early days - close the server after restart and loot it with your buddies/clanmates. Just imagine how powerful the testers will be when it eventually releases!

I almost pressed IDS HABBENING button but then again I read some reddit and bang oh noes no release just yet so.

they re-wrote the entire netcode and made it server-client based like a mmo.

and they f*cked it up. now players / zombies are warping like hell and they desperately try to fix the new netcode.

and since (lets face it) they don't have the best coders in the world, this may take some time or will never be fixed completely.

Pics or it didn't happen.

[pillerking@yahoo.com 72]

rocket talked about the warping problem in one of the last videos.

[-Leon- 20]

we already know the performance hasn't improved, some mod (i believe fraggle) told us so. (yeah yeah, not exactly, but read between the lines).

Haha, don't put words in my mouth goddamit.  Instead of reading between the lines and getting it wrong just try reading the actual lines.  

 

And we wonder why Dean has been quiet...

It was already "client-server" based, the only difference between an "MMO" and regular multi is character persistence.

Short memories, Dean went quiet when he missed the Christmas release date, more than went quiet he HID

You trolling?

 

That's a tad different to actually saying that you're going to take a break from the social media stuff to focus on the game for the final push and you know it.

[gesundheitk 420]

You trolling?

 

different actually take break social media stuff to  the game you

DAYZ RELEASE DATE CONFIRMED! kinda

 

 

 

Thanks, Fraggle!

 

E: Post got screwed up. Point is Fraggle actually said in code that the release is TOTHAY. YAY!!!

He also had to deal with the whole WarZ debacle and going from just a guy making a mod to one of the most talked about personalities in gaming. I don't blame him for hunkering down from time to time. All the speculation in this thread alone is proof that's neccessary.

Where are people getting this unstable shizz from? Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Rocket just say they wanted to make sure it was stable enough for large scale testing (testing which according to Hicks was occurring today/tomorrow)? Why are people deciding it's already unstable/it's the end of the world before the testing has even occurred? :huh:

Or have I missed something?

I don't think hicks said when the testing would happen.

Because negative Nancies will be negative every chance they get. Even at the birth of their children - "What? No lasers? Pffft. He's fucking shit".

Just rechecked and you're exactly correct! It was implied that it was soon however. So why in the hell have all the doomsday prophets ( and nicefish) come out of the woodwork declaring "I told you so"? It boggles the mind. Some of you really thrive on the failure of others. It's quite sad and borderline obsessive :huh:

Rocket said today that he wouldn't even consider a release date until is is satisfied with performance and stability. That kinda implies it's not upto alpha standards yet. 

[pxxl 259]

Send me a PM if you need someone to fill that 100 players spot  :lol:

[Michaelvoodoo25 3120]

Why speculate, Just wait ^_^

Satisfied with the results of a test that hasn't even occurred yet. And that implies your speculation how exactly? Ffs, clutching at straws is an understatement :lol:
