Kushko 36 Posted May 20, 2014 Right......... :huh: The point being a lot of the improvements such as the entirely new navmesh are extremely complicated and labor intensive but have not been pushed to any of the builds yet. So the player would not "experience" them yet. He would have to go to the devblog or some other place that contains "words", which would require him to "read" to find out about it. Of course reading comprehension is another question entirely. ;) Interesting that you talk about reading and reading comprehension when you obviously did not read or comprehend my post. So i'll try to make this simple for you; I did read the dev blogs but what i was saying in my post is that the game has not had any actual progress, not that no progress is being planned or worked on by the team. You see, for a player there is a pretty substantial difference in what was done in the 3months (or for that matter in the 6+months since i started following dayzs progress) and what has been worked on or is planned in the distant future. One is a tangible experience, while the other is pretty much all hopes and dreams. Also in response to someone earlier saying game development isnt like building a house. I'm not a programmer myself, but the 2 friends i mentioned in my original post are actually both game developers, and we all agree that game development actually is exactly like building a house. And in DayZs case the foundations are build over a swamp and the walls are cracking and so far most of the "progress" that has been made (again, not something they are working on, but what has actually been done and given to the players to experience) is the equivalent to new fancy furniture being added in to a house that is falling apart around them. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BossFi 90 Posted May 20, 2014 Progress is very slow. I too don't play anymore apart from logging in for a few minutes after a major update, few and far between. Probably be another 2 years by the time this game is ready and worth playing again. I can't imagine how many other similar games will be finished and released by then that I'm not even sure it's worth following here for much longer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kakysas666 191 Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) I haven't played 12 hours, have the game improved yet? Cars? Helicopters? How I hate threads like that. Obviously people who prefer to be spoon-fed with information and don't understand what alpha means. This game never lagged for me in low ping servers. If it lags, the problem is in your end. Get a better CPU. Oh, somehow in 3 months alpha didn't turn into beta muaahahaha. I will be really happy when such people leave the DayZ servers forever. I just had full geared character, climbed on top of the silo in Chernogorsk and died in the process of climbing ladders. Did I complain? No. It is so easy to get loot, that such bugs/glitches are only mild annoyance. Edited May 20, 2014 by MaxRain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deebz1234 243 Posted May 20, 2014 im on hold too, till ballistics are fixed. cant justify playing a game which shooting mechanics more closely resemble random throwing of dice but every week i come back to view the forums, i see little to no progression on core mechanics...only silly additions of weapons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
