November Round-up

[dgeesio 1034]

what makes me wonder about bigger than 50 man server is the actual cost ! servers for that kinda of number would cost you alot of money a month and need seriously high spec boxes. i think you wont see many even when the game does support them as you talking possible 150-250 dollars a month to run a 150 man server.

That is steam and BIS's problem for the moment. When private hives are available then it becomes something to worry about.

I think it's good to demands really powerful servers. In that way not anyone can create a server and expect a population.

Just ordering parts for our server now. its going to be a beast :)

[Dchil 829]

I've just started thinking about how i'm going to pay for this game on steam. Looking like im gonna have to fork out an extra $5 to get a prepaid visa card for $20-30 so i can get this on release.

When do you plan on being able to host a server? We already went over this last week. Initially they will only be hosted by steam, this has been confirmed by Rocket. Private individuals will not be able to host DayZ servers until the full version is out, which could be months after the alpha release. I feel the need to reiterate this because I don't want people getting all upset when they realize they, in fact, cannot host a DayZ server and we don't know when they'll be able to. You might want to wait on purchasing your parts is all I'm saying.

I doubt it will even be out this week...

[Cain42 18]

I doubt it will even be out this life

[AnarchyBrownies 1383]

We've been given some very general benchmarks for release. It would appear we can expect a multiplayer test with 50+ people before the release. Even then there's no reason to think that once we see that a 50+ person test has been done that the release will happen the next day. It all depends on how that test goes.

 

So there's no reason for any hype. It seems close, but there's absolutely no reason to expect it in the next few days. Not sure how people can get out of control excited when we've been told this.

And again. I am not hosting per hobby. We are running a business.

 

I have yet seen any of this can you please point me towards the information your refering to?

I have tried to get Dean's attention about the matter but it is as easy as climbing to the moon on a ladder!

 

We can host atleast 5 servers in sweden and i personally never thought it would be a problem!

It's buried somewhere in the updates from the last year, but I can assure you it is correct. I'll go back and try to find it. Some help from a moderator here would be much appreciated  ;)

It was around the same time that they said the game will not be available for modding until later down the road. Trust me it's there, unless they've made some sort of change.

I doubt they made any changes in a years time. :)

[Dr. Goner 661]

Searching the forums you can find some of the info. They will definitely not be available immediately upon release. How long after is the question? It doesn't seem to have been addressed.

Not trying to be rude, but you could just as easily show evidence dismissing my claim as I can dig up the evidence to support it.  :)

Found the thread on Standalone server status.

Just found this on reddit.

Private servers that connect to the central hive will be expressely allowed on release, using a blacklist system. That means servers will be automatically approved and only blacklisted if somethng goes wrong. This is mainly to be allowed for our alpha, in beta and release we will reiew the situation and possibly allow private hives themselves.

 

So i guess i just killed the conversation!
