freethink 984 Posted August 9, 2014 It's caused by the current implementation of the server bubble system.Have you informed rocket? It's been a known series of bugs (since release) and we currently do not know the causes for the ones we have not already fixed. It is under continued investigation as a high-priority task. We have been unable to reproduce it in our deployment lab, and we have no solid reproduction. I am confident though, that either we will find and fix the bugs given time - or when the sound system gets replaced the problem will disappear.It is currently one of the great mysteries. Been very hard to isolatehttp://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/2c65z2/fixing_sound_files_playing_randomly_needs_to_be_a/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Accolyte 1727 Posted August 9, 2014 Hey there folks, I've seen some wild speculations in this thread and would just like to ask everyone to take what everyone's been posting with a pinch of salt. I will confirm that these sounds become more frequent the higher a server population gets. We have been testing around this issue extensively (as Dean says in the quotes above) however so don't think we're ignoring the issue. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applejaxc 2500 Posted August 9, 2014 Have you informed rocket? Do you have a date for those quotes? I don't remember the validity of my own sources, but to me it makes sense if it's an issue that increases in severity with higher population. Have they at least made rabbits stop moaning like zombies? That used to scare the shit out of me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Accolyte 1727 Posted August 9, 2014 Rabbits making zombie sounds were fixed a while ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freethink 984 Posted August 9, 2014 Do you have a date for those quotes? I don't remember the validity of my own sources, but to me it makes sense if it's an issue that increases in severity with higher population. Have they at least made rabbits stop moaning like zombies? That used to scare the shit out of me. 9 days ago. The random sounds I get are drink can opening, ammo splitting and zombie sounds. OP is right when he says that the zombie sound is often truncated. The other sounds are short anyway. It is worse on high pops. Speculation but I don't think when we hear phantom sounds i.e. splitting ammo that anyone is actually splitting ammo anywhere on the map at that time. Even though it's annoying I find it amazing that something so pervasive is happening in a game and even the devs don't know why. It's real ghost in the machine stuff.

This is one of the long-running bugs that we're used to but can't help but notice how blatant it is. It will be a great day when it is solved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Avant-Garde 229 Posted August 10, 2014 I notice it less when my ping is good (only on stable because i'm brazillian UAHEUHAUEHUHAE). Now, when I'm at experimental servers I usualy get 220+ ping and this bug seems much more common (maybe I'm just not paying attention and saying dumb shit, idk). Not only the zed, ammo spliting, can oppening and people eating sounds, as I also get that bow shoting sound and flashlight when you turn it on/off. TIK TIK TIK TIK TIK TIk..... TIK TIK... TIKOnce I though I was being stalked by some wierd ass person with a flashlight, but then I was in the middle of fucking nowher and TIK TIK tik TIK tik Sometimes I stay in a long period of time without hearing them , but sometimes shit goes crazy and it starts to combo wierd sounds in a row. Lol, looks like the game is gonna have a stroke DONT DIE ON ME DAYZ HANG ON It doesn't scare me no more, you can see its the bug because the sound doesn't have a "distance" factor in it, if you know what I mean Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barnabus 1708 Posted August 10, 2014 So what are you trying to say? The definition of so called is something that is alleging to be something you are not sure it is. So are you not sure it's a bug? Because I'm certain it is and over 700 votes on one issue cant be wrong....http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=153 http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/2c65z2/fixing_sound_files_playing_randomly_needs_to_be_a/So how about you take a valium and calm down. Just because someone does not agree with you or your way of thinking about something does not make you or those 700 votes right either. You and your side are not exactly sure that it is a bug either. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
