December Round-up: ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ GIVE SA

[Sensemann 145]

Release coming up next tuesday (10th of December). Mark my words.

 

If not by then, well I was wrong.

[TheLastEmp 295]

I think this Friday is a real possibility... Or the following Friday, or the Tuesday after that...

 

I'm just pretty confident it will release before the holiday though.... Just in time for me to be on vacation and away from my desktop :P

From today'z chat room session on PsiSyndicate's livestream (Featuring Rocket2Guns):

 

These are all of the responses given by rocket to the endless torrent of questions that came across the chat room.

I tried to find the questions when it seemed absolutely necessary to understanding his response.

 

 

the vehicles will be completely different. built from parts, based on the attachment system we have for weapons now

 

the M4 has over a dozen different attachments

 

 the gun variety slowly increases

probably each week there will be new items and weapons

 

 I really hope that people WAIT before they buy the standalone, and be sure they are happy to join in first

 

 base building is on the roadmap

 

 the roadmap will be shown on release

 

 I think someone should only buy the game if it looks exciting and like a good buy

watch the streams, then decide

 

 im eating dinner 

 

 I think we spend so much time problem solving that you dont really realize lots of people are going to see the results

 

 erm. deepthroating cow udders is not currently supported, sorry

 

 but ah. I think farming simulator was released on steam. maybe that has it

 

 PZ is really great. glad others see that!

 

 Farming is planned for standalone

 

 I miss NZ heaps!

 

 modding is possible but we will have to release the keys to allow signing of mods

 that means not on release (we have a lot of work to do on security, first)

 

 bitcoin is pretty cool i think

 

m4, mosin, fnp45, sks, shotgun are all currently 100% ingame

 

 yes actually, riot gear is one lot of items being worked on right now

 

 dayz standalone will cure world hunger, solve the soverign debt crisis, and create peace in the middle east

 

 

?__Rocket2guns will the dedicated server be like bf4, or will there be dedicated Server file release ?

good questions about dedicated servers: but we can't provide info for that until we have confirmed 100% what we are doing for it

 

not really thought about story

hard to think about story when performance still needs work

 

 I have 800 hours in steam already

 

 yes we are planning a group system, but there is nothing finalized yet. its something we must think careful about it

 

 I think DayZ would be quite likely for consoles. But only after the masterrace is finished with it, shall the dirty peasants pick from the scraps

 

 

we will see what antihack we need to do beyond VAC after release

 

 maybe include some BE too, if needed

 

 best thing to support dayz is to: - support the streamers. - support the youtubers. - support those who make mods - support those who run community websites, clans, etc...

 

supporting those people is supporting gamers

 

yes I like pie

 

 

VAC initially, then whatever we need to

the initial release will give us an idea of vunrebilities

we will look at securing once we identify the remaining areas

 the best antihack involves solving architectural issues, not slapping on middleware

 

 Im most excited about the inventory system. I think it dramatically changes the way the game is played.

 

 I made DayZ because I wanted to play something like it

 

 yes I will be at pax again, i think

 

?__ Rocket, Have You Ever Really Been Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?

 @Lorenzo0852... I still cant believe I said that 

 

 we have a new artist working on new zombies as we speak

 he is making custom military zombies

 

 I dont have herpies and I drive a skoda

actually, someone hit me on the weekend. scraped the door

 

 

 military weapons will be endgame loot

and require maintenance (not finished yet though)

 

 

desync hasnt seemed much of a problem because of the network bubble

 

 i want to do barracding like in TDL

placement could be part of that

 

 there will be hackers and we will just use that experience to learn how to improve the security

 

 my main concern is server 

 

 SSD makes quite a difference, or a RAMdisk if you have the tech knowhow

 

 PZ for the win!

 buy it now on steam guys

 

 bit late for me here. Big days these days so I got to get to bed!\

 

but bro-op when standalone comes out?

 

 right im going to head off. Thanks for having me and talk soon!!

hope it didn't disrupt things too much

 

 cya guys! lets game soon

 

 

 

 

 

And THIS was bullshit he had to wade through.... *sigh*

 Rocket are your laps longer or shorter than the retard olympics?

 

 

Damn, take my beans! Awesome job!

Hey, it's a very big track!

[sabre05 351]

22 people playing at this ungodly hour? I can feel the habbens.

Testers come from all over though, so it is everything o' clock at all times.

Very confusing.

[DemonGroover 8836]

Yep 10pm here.

[ukko 33]

It's beer o'clock in here. Was two hours ago too. And most likely will be next 4 days too because these holidays.

[Hosty 647]

So, I shall make a summary:

 

-Network bubble is done

-Only optimization is left

-Zombies make too much lag

-Servers reached 50 players

-Forums are now called dayzgame

-Pictures for the steam page

 

 

IT'S HABBENING

It was happening over half a year now. :/

Don't complain

Good games don't take 6 months to make, but much more.

[Wayze 549]

It wasn't me complaining, it was me criticizing your argumentation for the upcoming release.

Fair enough

So what you're saying is, if America is asleep, the world is still running?

feature hopefully, thatd be sweet

[Tempus (DayZ) 1062]

feature hopefully, thatd be sweet

 

Agreed, but on the other hand, maybe that's one of the reasons for the massive performance issue with zombies at the moment.

[Dr. Goner 661]

I love the fact that every little thing the devs do causes someone somewhere to jump to a conclusion about the release, but the fact that Matt changed his twitter picture to fireworks a few days ago didn't get so much as a peep. Poor Matt, I'll chip in here.

 

Holy Hell!! Matt Lightfoot just changed his Twitter page photo to exploding fireworks!!!! Choo fucking choochety choo mother chooters!!! Here we go!     Choo.

Frankly any time other than 3PM to 2AM is ungodly in my eyes.

This will be the first alpha I've ever been apart of. I'm excited to see the game get better over time and to maybe help find a bug or two.

Honestly though, the last few videos rocket released I didn't notice bugs until they were pointed out in the comments lol. But I'm in.

[SJKSJK 225]

This gif really hits home with me since I am very rarely not wearing an old west style duster jacket.

[Budheadz 28]

The sense of deja vu in here.

Anyone remember this very time last year ?, when everyone was just as much expecting it to release any day now. Had you been told back then that "a year from now and it still wont be release yet", would you of laughed in their face ?, i know i would have.
