Why were Makeshift Splint not added?  I saw they were removed at the last minute. They would really be helpful.

The same from the first reports from users on our server.

Yep we know its a stupid issue that should never have been built :-( This change never got committed it was a local build issue.

Great hotfix, looks like a lot of really good changes, however, I have to ask: why did you reduce the zombie damage?  Between that and changing the Zed Aggro, will this not make the zombies easy again?  It seemed to me from responses I've read on the forums and Reddit that a majority of people were praising the devs for finding the perfect balance, offering a challenging element that really solidified DayZ as a zombie survival game.  I for one can say I was *really* enjoying the state of zombies in 1.8, especially in conjunction with the ability to switch to melee (which, IMO is the best and most important thing to happen to DayZ since it was released).  I'm just curious what led to the decision to lower the damage.

 

Either way, fantastic job on the updates.  1.8 is by far the best version of DayZ to date.  Props to the devs for all the hard work.

Dmg isn't the only balance we need to get correct we also need to bring in bleed and sepsis to be more of an issue then they was in 1.8. So the lower dmg and higher bleed/sepsis chance should equal it out we hope.

tried it also, same. other than that, very good fix. one thing: isn t a way to leave the character for let s say 5 seconds inert in the game after aborting in order to prevent combat logging? it s very frustrating to engage in a combat and your opponent dissappearing with high chances coming back behind you after server hopping. just 5 seconds. and relocate if player changes the server :D spawn in a tree but some km away. my 2 cents maybe for a future fix..

The fix is done. the issue never happened on the official git it was just a local messup as the files got built.

 

We are just trying to decide if we should do a new hotfix for the one issue or wait a little. We still have to get permission and all the rest even for a silly mistake.

Don't worry Razor ;)

 

Is that possible to fix it by editing the server pbo or you need to modify the client side pbo's ? If yes you can post it for admins that are able to do it themself.

That sounds good.  Thanks for the response.  Keep up the good work, it's appreciated!
