Help test the latest patch

[fluxley 2228]

There's currently a test server running the latest experimental branch 113933, the devs need as many people as possible on there to play test.

 

They want people to play and die a lot to test that body cleanup is working well under load and also testing that rubberbanding is fixed, this is where players will suddenly be teleported back to a previous location and the game freezes.

 

if you can jump on and play for a while it would be much appreciated.

 

The server is on a separate hive so no need to worry about losing your main character.

 

To opt into experimental go to steam, right click dayz>properties>betas>and select experimental-preview testing version

 

then local files and verify integrity of game cache to make sure it updates.

Is it on a private hive? kinda don't want to lose my current progress.

Well someone's gonna be ineviably disappointed.

Hicks has asked us on Skype, not enough testers online at the moment though, hence this topic was created. The teleport to previous spot issue seems to primarily occur on high pop servers so without large player numbers on the server, it's difficult to determine if it's actually fixed.

Is there anyway to talk in global or something? or how does feedback for the patch work? 

 

Edit: I am getting teleports back a few feet every minute or so of constant running, but it isn't locking up the game like previously. A couple of instances too of my head not being able to turn, sort of snapping back to where it was a few seconds ago as well.

Actually I have found that this only teleports  you when you're doing the " bullet " run. You need to bring your fists up, face down, and run and if you continue this it will teleport you.

I played for about an hour, I didn't experience the rubber banding over long distances. There was lag rubber banding me about 2-3 meters every now and then (but that may just be my connection).

[vandal gab 1384]

No major rubber banding for me on the test server but I was experiencing the occasional mini lag spike here and there, also items were still taking a while to appear on the ground when placed in the vicinity (my ping was around 35 or so with 2 spikes according to the player list).

[WidespreadPanic 0]

Short lag spikes, no long rubber banding.  Occasionally I'd teleport 10-20 meters randomly.  Server seems to be down now...

[dromagewok@hotmail.com 164]

Going on soon to test, when I was on last night it was running smooth as butter. Should be good to fill it up though. I was still getting the occasional "weather sync" hitching problem, along with the free look "snap to focus" problem.

Is the server up because i cant seem to connect to it

[-Daemon- 14]

Doesn't seem to be up, are you guys the only ones running the new build?  Seems to me that more servers should be running it to get a better tester base.

[Dchil 829]

I'll help any way i can!

 

 

*Gets shot*

[fluxley 2228]

Servers down right now, though there is a new experimental version on steam so i'm guessing they are pushing out a new build, will let you know when its back up.

Oh, so that was what that update was.

Thanks!

[DevilDog (DayZ) 455]

Sure invite us to play then we can't cause server down >:(

 

Any new things added we should know about to test? Cooking perhaps lol.
