barnabus 1708 Posted September 11, 2014 (edited) Yeah, I get about 30mins play before I crash - it was pouring down when I was playing, so I don't know if the rain = crash theory... holds much water...Yeah, it doesn't. I was grasping at straws, chasing a dream....For the record, pick axe and machete are still useless. Edited September 11, 2014 by Barnabus 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryanh 36 Posted September 11, 2014 And you only seem to get kicked of the game the moment you get fps lag, So if your for example in police station going up stairs at sprinting speed normaly some might have a small fps drop, that drop seems to trigger the kick 100% of the time. there might be other ways too. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hicks_206 (DayZ) 4297 Posted September 11, 2014 thanks for clearing that up hicks, is there any news available with a new timeframe? most people are getting kicked so fast that there are no bugs to report at this time :PI won't bore you guys with details on version # protection - Eugen and the programmers are working on a build from today with some additional bugs squashed - but if that can't be prepped in time for a good smoke/regression testing we'll push the version intended for last night. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

soulfirez 901 Posted September 11, 2014 I won't bore you guys with details on version # protection - Eugen and the programmers are working on a build from today with some additional bugs squashed - but if that can't be prepped in time for a good smoke/regression testing we'll push the version intended for last night.AH good news (plus its great to see some official voices on the forums) so either way we will be playing again with or without extended bug fixes.. Now to find something to do while i wait anything to stop the withdrawl twitches...(ps thank the audio guy or the coders or who ever it was that seem to have stopped the random sounds bug much MUCH better. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ryanh 36 Posted September 11, 2014 New Bug found, after being kicked so many times, My entire client was reset, including all characters tied too it.. Hardcore, Regualr Stable branch as well as my exp :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deniz0790 42 Posted September 11, 2014 Don't think that issue is squashed just yet - might just be occurring less. I think the reason why many people think this bug is fixed are the -in the current exp version- less populated servers. Long ago I made the observation that these random sounds only occur on servers under heavy load for some time . . . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryanh 36 Posted September 11, 2014 The sounds seem to be more popular on big servers because if im not mistaken (tested with some firends) the sounds indicate someone is doing something within 1km of you/or within the grid you are in. hence you hear it less on quiet servers. because no ones around you.

igor-vk 909 Posted September 11, 2014 I love experimental and I love unofficial changelog on reddit. And I love when experimental updates are once a week. But they are wellcome to push updates every day :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No.By the time it hits stable? Yes. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChainReactor 922 Posted September 11, 2014 As of right now? No.By the time it hits stable? Yes. Hicks, just on a sidenote, it's good to see you more active here. It really helps to have a member of the dev team among us, and your tweet from yesterday probably prevented many Exp players from messing with their drivers / system to "fix" the CTD issue. Feel free to stay with us, it's actually a nice place. :) 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DeepEuphoria 69 Posted September 11, 2014 Ok very strange, quite a few people have reported that the update yesterday was showing as a 4+GB download, personally mine was only 800 and something MB. But I just logged into Steam and DayZ started updating Exp with a 4.2GB update :-\Anyone else getting this or know why?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
akpe 36 Posted September 11, 2014 Just got an 1.1GB update right now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Demonica 311 Posted September 11, 2014 Thanks Hicks, and you guys take the time you need. I'd rather have a working version that's taking some more time than a hastely put together half-thing that would have to be fixed yet again. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChainReactor 922 Posted September 11, 2014 Switching back from stable, the update is 1.1GB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoterBallon 68 Posted September 11, 2014 Switching back from stable, the update is 1.1GB."New update"? More precise: You already downloaded the exp update yesterday and this is the one Hicks mentioned yesterday? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dennus (DayZ) 123 Posted September 11, 2014 "New update"? More precise: You already downloaded the exp update yesterday and this is the one Hicks mentioned yesterday? Yesterdays update was 980-ish MB, so one would assume 1.1 GB is the update Hicks mentioned yesterday for the "AM". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChainReactor 922 Posted September 11, 2014 "New update"? More precise: You already downloaded the exp update yesterday and this is the one Hicks mentioned yesterday? I have no idea lol. Got the 723MB Experimental update yesterday, found out its broken, went to stable because i wanted to play, now going back to Experimental, downloading 1.1GB of data.
