RC_Robio (DayZ) 6 Posted January 20, 2014 Thanks mate :D ... Iam really getting sick of those posts...Only because they are NOT releasing "important" stuff in THIS update doesn't mean that they are not working on it already...Game development is a process, you cant just do this do that, it basicly doesnt work...And not everyone from bohemia is working on the same stuff... split work you know...Agreed. I don't work in game development but in software development. Totally unrelated in a way. But we can throw a 100 of little things in first with our team that work, then it's a bit easier to work the few big issues around the smaller things, rather then reworking each smaller issue individually around the bigger issue.

doctorrayray 76 Posted January 20, 2014 So we're getting alpha patch for an alpha game? Too funny. Rust is more popular than DayZ and there is a reason why. Have you've been on steam recently? DayZ has been the best selling game since it opened up on early access. During the steam winter sale it was best selling despite all the cheap, good games. Also, Rust is alpha and gets alpha patchs all the time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RC_Robio (DayZ) 6 Posted January 20, 2014 So we're getting alpha patch for an alpha game? Too funny. Rust is more popular than DayZ and there is a reason why.More popular with the hackers and hacked servers. Tried Rust. Reminds me of WarZ. Have fun with that.

frosti 2165 Posted January 20, 2014 20.I.2014, 11 AM and still no patch? Please, my friend says he feels like a dick for having deleted buildings .pbo and killing people, but if everyone can do it he will do it too, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bazvink 8 Posted January 20, 2014 Body despawning times is going to be hard to please anyone. In theory I think a player that was killed should not be able to run back to his body. To keep with the realism. You die, you should not have any knowledge of your previous life.Live long and prosper Yea, it's a delicate balance, because you don't want people to be able to run back to their previous corpse, but you do want to give the "killer" the oppertunity to loot the corpse. And if you're in a larger gunfight (multiple players) it make be more than 10 minutes before one side has the oppertunity to loot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

meiz22 17 Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) Just saw this on Rockets twitter page, thought I'd leave it here after hearing all the comments regarding it and no apparent dev answer here. Post asking if 10 minute clean up time is too quick. Rory @Beasleyyyyy Jan 17@rocket2guns okay thanks, do you not think its a bit quick? sometimes firefights could last longer than that. Meaning possibly no reward? Rockets answer Dean Hall @rocket2guns Jan 17@Beasleyyyyy temporary solution pending further performance fixes Edited January 20, 2014 by meiz22 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WizzardsCuff 85 Posted January 20, 2014 for an alpha thats sold 1mil copies, im not sure about any of you but thats alot of dohnuts.

deebz1234 243 Posted January 20, 2014 Coding away bugs usually takes more time than making new models.That's why we are getting sawn offs and pink mosins instead of Combat logging fixes and Zombie fixes.This has been discussed at least 5 times in this thread alone. If you don't like the game as is then stop playing and uninstall. Also im pretty sure its easier to add the 10 second log out timer than the paint, painting mechanic and shotgun. even a quick google search and i found some compatible code that could be used. the 10 sec timer is an already used method, not rocket science to implement like the paint/painting could be. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And if you're in a larger gunfight (multiple players) it make be more than 10 minutes before one side has the oppertunity to loot.That's where the conundrum lies. Understand giving the killer/killers time to loot or friends in their squad time to loot. There is really no way to keep the death of a player "real". Or keeping them away from their previous life's knowledge. There is really no way around it. The shortened timer is the only feasible option at this time the way I see it. It is an apocalypse you will scrounge as fast as possible before somebody else gets to it and it will just be an empty corpse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dromagewok@hotmail.com 164 Posted January 20, 2014 Not wrong at all. Respawn doesn't work for anyone. Lying about something does not make you right.Respawn may not be fully functional but it being broken does not have anything to do with bodies despawning. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WizzardsCuff 85 Posted January 20, 2014 Good thing he is adding shit to an unfinished game that has no value or use in game besides for being a unique and special snowflake instead of fixing things such as oh you know, Combat logging,Server hopping,Zombies no cliping through buildings,Vehicles,guns,More items that actually do something besides pain your gun pink. you keep buying the whole " hurrr durr its alpha he's allowed to do that" just because its an unfinished game doesnt mean he should skip all the basic fundamentals of the game such as being able to store gear Can the mods not start deleting posts from obvious brain dead knobheads like this one? Getting really sick of having to sift through people crying their little eyes out because the game isn't PERFECT for little Timmy to play on NOW! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well it's getting annoying that any estimating skills of Rocket are completely lacking. Whenever you see any estimate or promise you just know that you cannot trust it anytime.
