Pazzmon 64 Posted July 1, 2014 So, I left the game, it's been a couple of months now I think, after finding a pretty average desktop computer in my shed I thought I would come back to the game. (Sold my Macbook Pro). So... what is new? Any decent things been added, what is the game playability like these days? Currently installing Steam and all my old games so will probably be a good few hours until I can actually play it, or, is it not worth coming back to? Cheers 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers Don't get your hopes up in terms of gaming experience - it gotten worse. I stopped playing ~2.5 weeks ago due to cheaters becoming a more frequent phenomenon. From what I'm reading on the forums, the problem just intensified during my absence, with cheaters being able to remotely steal your loot from your very backpack. If you want to just test things however, go right ahead. Edited July 1, 2014 by retro19 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smoq2 221 Posted July 1, 2014 (edited) Patch .46 will fix item steal hack So do they claim. ;) However, nothing been said about it addressing speed-hack, teleporting or ESP, which were already too much for me even before the "remote steal cheat". That, and all the bugs with random leg breaking, falling through walls, etc, I sustain my advice to the OP of not trying to play the game to have fun. Wait for that a couple of months more.

Pazzmon 64 Posted July 1, 2014 Well, although it is a major issue for the game, I never really saw many people on the game anyway so that wouldn't be a problem for myself, so 0.46 is only coming out tomorrow? When, 0.45 came out back when I first left, any reason why the update has taken so long? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They had a horrible choke on a rubberbanding issue - google the term alongside "DayZ" if you don't know what that is. It could be something else, but I'm betting the above was the whole reason why the time frame between 0.45 and 0.46 was so long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
