Hetstaine 10852 Posted July 7, 2014 Just did a four hour sesh on latest experimental with two others and we never saw the chain all night or any loss of connection. We saw two guys at NWAF and got within 50 metres, nice to know that is has gone..if it truely has, it was like a radar. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frosti 2165 Posted July 7, 2014 Just did a four hour sesh on latest experimental with two others and we never saw the chain all night or any loss of connection. We saw two guys at NWAF and got within 50 metres, nice to know that is has gone..if it truely has, it was like a radar. More like Spider Sense of Spiderman. And I still have it in form of "lossing connection" instead of red chain on .47 experimentals. But! It can be because my PC is potato and can't handle players network bubble correctly and always when players network bubble collide it starts having hiccups. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Testnewbie 34 Posted July 7, 2014 It was proven many times by several players but the red chain came never up in the tests if the other player was a freshspawn. The more loot/players the longer the red chain. Hopefully they will remove it completely :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death By Crowbar 1213 Posted July 7, 2014 Now they just need to fix the various material file, etc pop-ups that warn you when people are approaching. The motohelmet one that they finally fixed around a month ago was one of the reasons that I stopped wearing the motorcycle helmet... I didn't want to alert others that I was coming or that someone could be nearby. So by this right a poor man's UAV is still present. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted July 7, 2014 Bad news. Player proximity alert is still there. On experimental .47 now instead of red chain when player is nearby you are "losing connection" for 10-30 seconds and this mean some player is 100-500 meters away from you. Not happening for me. Then again I didn't get red chain player proximity alerts in the old builds either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karmaterror 982 Posted July 7, 2014 Willing to bet it's the new movement system. It's intensely annoying. New movement system?....Character movement? Went completely under my radar that one lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Elmyr 8 Posted July 8, 2014 Ok so I only play on the stable branch, should I be cautious when I see the red chain? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
