blackberrygoo 1416 Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) Wow holy shit .... No wonder it was taking so long for a new update to experimental !! I'm so excited to see the new colored v3s's, can we actually paint them ourselves ?? But what does Peter mean when he tweeted something saying a bunch of new items and one of them was "guts" ... does anyone know what guts are ? Is there now something left behind when you cannibalize someone ? Anyways I can't freaking wait to get home tonight , and lemme just say , wow green bell pepper seeds you fucking read my mind devs lol ... Now we need jalapeño seeds ... And I can't wait to see if cooking With the gas stove works yet , also I'm curious about the cooking tripod :) , wether the gas stove works or not that tripod looks like it could cook up a solid rabbit haunch Stew :0 !Edit : does anyone know what the "huge map changes" were ? And if you've found them mind posting a picture ? ;) Edited December 17, 2014 by Grapefruit kush Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

St. Jimmy 1631 Posted December 17, 2014 Hmm I found some flare gun flares... And at the same time I alt+tabbed I found myself dead when writing this. No idea what happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rags! 1966 Posted December 17, 2014 Alrighty, here's some observations. LOTS of military gear around residential areas. Magazines, weapon attachments, military balaclavas, and other goodies now spawn in houses and sheds. Even big mountain backpacks and tents. Police Stations are now much more enticing, too...and rightfully they should be. They can now spawn AKs, M4 magazines, suppressors, assault vests, high capacity vests, and other goodies. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't read too much into where loot is currently spawning, as eugen (and Smash) already stated this: The numbers of types of loot on server are controlled centrally, and we are able to change them real time, since buildings are not tagged , loot will be all over the place. However less useless items incoming. Source Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dagwood 680 Posted December 17, 2014 Christmas patch means Christmas presents all over the place! I get it. Even cooler than releasing original patch from last year. Thanks devs. Too bad I'm away from my computer for the next 2 weeks... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

solodude23 649 Posted December 17, 2014 Despite how random loot spawns are now, canned food seems much more rare in general which is awesome (even in areas with a bunch of loot). Anyone experiencing the same? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChainReactor 922 Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) This update is... BLOWING. MY. MIND. Yes lol. I was on Smak's stream and Eugen was in the chat briefly. I told him how much of a troll the devs were by announcing a bugfix-heavy update and then delivering THIS. It's just awesome. EDIT: Look the teddy bear's name is Brian. If you ever wanted to cuddle Hicks, this is your moment! :-) Edited December 17, 2014 by ChainReactor 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St. Jimmy 1631 Posted December 17, 2014 Am I only one seeing something like 2,6GB RAM usage for DayZ or even more. I'd like total of 6GB of RAM usage and when I closed DayZ it dropped down to 2,9GB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackberrygoo 1416 Posted December 17, 2014 Guts! Hmmm, yummy! Looks good! :PLol of course ! I hope you're not skipping dinner for that D= ! Can't wait to get home and "do this thang" ... Has anyone seen how often v3s's spawn now ? Or has anyone painted / seen a new colored v3s? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) Hunting knife. A blue v3s truck. Exit and entering animations for the truck. Edit: Oh yeah and I found a skull balaclava in a common industrial building and the press vest in a garage. Edited December 17, 2014 by BadAsh 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tatanko 5591 Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) Ugh. Thinking I need to not play this for a bit. I just gave it a go for almost an hour and never made any real progress finding ANYTHING. I spent an entire hour looking until I finally came upon one solitary house with any loot in it, and of all things it was an assault vest <_< The only other loot I found AT ALL were the teddy bears next to a Christmas tree. Never found any weapons of any kind, but tons and tons of ammo at the Christmas tree. Right now it's just basically impossible for me to stay alive for any length of time because I can't find any food or the means to create my own. Experimental usually has a loot shortage, but this is BY FAR the worst I've ever seen, especially considering it's only been out but a few hours. Victim of the new loot spawn system I guess? Oh well. I'm not going to be salty about it. I'll just keep checking in here and on Reddit and when my frustration is gone I'll give it another try. Had a lot of my enthusiasm for this update killed though :( I really, really wish they would add more Experimental servers. There are far too few of them given the demand for that branch.

solodude23 649 Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) Yeah - loot is pretty odd right now but I'm trying to focus on the new map updates. I think I found a new building at the mine up north. Also the V3S looks amazing and I love the new animations. Are the big backhoes new at the mine also? Edited December 17, 2014 by solodude23 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
