Experimental Branch: 0.50 Discussion

[dacatttack 9]

Exp. has been very stable this week, tge best of all the times I have played it. I haven't had a crash in quite some time and it has been very enjoyable. Love the new gear, hope it goes to stable successfully today.

[DrunkRedneck 2]

is exp usually updated the same time as stable?

[tomroadrunner 69]

Then I spawned and some dude in a motorcycle jacket gave me a zucchini, so my morning was salvaged.

[Zboub le météor 250]

it is, most of the time...

 

today i think we won't have exp update, but who knows !

The view in the mirror would be different from the passenger's seat.

Fair point. 

[Scarcifer 102]

I really hope rolling up or down the window gets implemented.That way theoretically a passenger could draw a  firearm or other weapon; For defense purposes

Yup, first attempts to implement that will obviously be bugged as hell, so many people will die.

Yes very likely,but all is fair in love and war. Also all is fair in survival and in the Day Z SA  development process.

Alright, one whole day of Z for me today! Finally! Let's see if you guys were kind enough to leave me some of dem X-Mas L00tZ, coz we're getting into that time of year anyway!

Not good timing, Demonica my friend. Experimental will be gone for a while later today! (Most likely, anyway). Best case scenario Stable will get the exact same build that's on Experimental currently, and you might be able to play on Experimental servers, but in my experience the game usually forces you to use your established Stable character in those scenarios.

Sometimes, sometimes not. I don't think there's a "rule" for such things.The last few times, a truly new Experimental has been released the week following a major Stable update.

@Tatanko thx

[freethink 984]

Hopefully I'll be able to die in a blaze of glory tonight on exp and then go back to stable until the new exp.

 

btw I check out one hacking site and they are releasing source of their hacks but saying "Pretty much everything is going to be patched in 0.50 so have fun gay boys." The list of supposedly patched hacks listed: esp, body esp, wreak esp, dupe body, fly, fast walk, head shake. The storm. Zombie Shield, Crash Server, View Gear, Remove Building, Item Filter, Free Cam, No recoil, No grass, Spectate, Shoot Em, Break Leg, Knock em out, Remove Weapon

I think they just went down. Well, poop. Are you switching to stable? I probably will just for the hell of it :P

Yup! I'll be switching to Stable this evening when I'm done with work. It's been probably close to a month since I've played on Stable, so I can barely remember what kind of state my character is in. No idea where I left him, but I remember being decently well-geared so I should be able to take off looking for map changes right out of the gate instead of worrying about my health. I'll be on at about 6:00 EST (23:00 UTC) if you'd like to join :)

Eugen was so kind to push the current 0.50 stable to exp servers as well.

Remember, this is marketed as a sandbox multiplayer game, and that means the developers are giving you the world where you play in - just that. What you do in this world is up to you, and there should not be a "preferred" playstyle enforced or encouraged by game mechanics. The developers can amp up the difficulty in clearing towns from infected NPC (suggesting people to play in stable or improvised groups for easy loot), can make boarding buildings or repairing vehicles difficult/time intensive for a lone player (suggesting people to cooperate for tactical advantages) and so on...but giving incentives to players because they talk instead of press the trigger? Why, and how? But most importantly: why?

How is a fairly simple one and it's being worked on, zombies. Why, well why not.

I know I'm dead on one of them, can't remember if third or first. That'll be 9 p.m. Oregon time I suppose... Grr... Work less, play harder! ^_^  I'll see if I can make it, but don't hold your minty breath just yet :)

 

Ah, Stable is still down anyway. Meh. :|

Bad post timing tho. Noone ever sees the last post on a page :)

[Demonica 311]

LOL It's way too early for me to be thinking straight here yet. :rolleyes:  I think I can gear up until then and meet you wherever for an hour or two. Yay!

 

Besides all this off-ish topic - I am amazed by the door sounds as well as the raise in zeds and how well temperature works, I actually can take my jacket and Ushanka off for a while.

Can't wait to see what the next pacth brings. And take your time devs, we have been absolutely spoiled with new additions and fixes these days :beans:

Is anyone getting a very limited (like 7-8) servers showing and nothing else? D/L'd the update now I can't get the roster of servers to appear as before. Any help would be appreciated.
