Exp Update: 0.56.127TheBeast.

[barnabus 1708]

I was just on a 1pp server and someone wanted me to give them my axe, they begged and pleaded, I just kept on going, told him to check the fire house.  I may have been born yesterday but I didn't just fall off the turnip cart.   Well, I guess it is time to take the dogs out to the park.  They deserve this since daddy spends all his time in experimental.  Hopefully we'll be into .57 by the time I get back.  Cya droogs later.

Funny, I just got back from a walk with my daughter and was hoping for the same thing after putting her down for her nap. I hope it goes better for you.

Servers all seem to be back up now... Not sure at all what that could possibly mean in regards to an update, if it means anything at all.

Interested how long the game will keep us going after 1.0.. No more new patches and all that?

Yeah it's gonna be kinda bittersweet I'd imagine. Will be great playing a polished game but will definitely miss all the new patches.

[HarryPotter (DayZ) 172]

Suppose that's when people will start modding..

Mods are, besides back end stuff like the renderer, the thing that I'm most excited for. The DayZ mod was modded so much, there was pretty much a range of different games that spawned from the original DayZ mod. (Okay, not quite, but they were pretty great).

 

SA, assuming mod tools are provided (and they're good), is going to be absolutely fucking awesome with mods... And without them, but yeah.

Anyway back on topic.. We getting 0.57 tonight????

Naw,there'll always be updates, no game gets to 1.0 then quits, they gotta update to keep people coming back.  Sometimes though, that back fires, for example say, the New Game Enhancements for Star Wars Galaxies.  Went over just about as well as New Coke did except Coke bounced back with Classic Coke then got rid of New Coke all together, SWG didn't.

The devs have implied many times that development will continue after 1.0 is out. I've seen lots of Q&A answers where people have asked about the likelihood of various features making out into the game, and the official answer he's been something like, "not before 1.0 but in the future who knows?"

Version 1 will be core feature complete, but I reckon we'll see further additions from the dev team as well as the modders.

I hope so (or not.. This game is so addictive)

found it in an police car, cool gun

many new things keep spawning there that's very odd aka the barrels, candles,, red nine, red nine attachments, vss rounds, and the butane canister. To bad they don't have very good loot and there loot is bugged half the time.

[galekast 70]

Found loads of loot on the 1pp server I was just on, mainly running about the docks down by Berezinho.. Those guard house style buildings really are a treasure trove when they have a lootsploshion! Yes it feels cheap but dammit I want to see all the new stuff :) And I did find an SVD with scope there, no ammo though but it does look very nice from what I could tell in the dark. Other than that, I was surprised to find a quiver of bolts for the crossbow, I did not know this was a thing! Quite excited about that now and will be tempted to give up my shiny new SVD if I come across a crossbow at some point! Or at least drop it and see how this works temporarily! 

 

Edit: Also, my frames were amazingly good this evening.. Anyone else finding that?

Oh that reminds me, last night I had a trumpet and found a box of .22 cal and loaded 11 in the rifle and after a few times of putting it away and dragging it back into my hands, I fired it finally and click. I looked and it showed empty. I put it away and dragged it back into my hands and then it showed loaded again and click "Bang" it fired. Also my winchester and hunting scope had a hunting scope vanished and same deal, put it away and dragged it back into my hands and it showed the scope again. I never got around to bug reporting that.

They take the zeds out again?

it happened to me many times.put it away and drag it back works well

haven't seen one this night too...

[blackberrygoo 1416]

I hope not but probably :/ I just want this performance issue stuff to get worked out so we can get goin with da game !! I feel like I slowly but surely realized the fps getting worse and worse but i still prefer zombies over no zombies but I completely agree with the steps they are taking , it saves us a lot of time , and I frankly can't wait to see if they can up our performance by taking out zombies for a bit and running some data tests !

id really like to play this darn patch but i log on and there is no loot at all i mean i find an occasional hat or pitch fork but.... nothing i eventualy just starve to death cant even carry anything because all ive got is 4 slots and my hands ..... then i just lose all intrest stop for a while, then i try again.... why i do not know as always the same results..... are there actualy servers where loot spawns yet? .... as of last night ive seen nothing.... once in my several lives in this new patch i found that new singleshot 7.62x39 but i never even saw ammo... 

[Excanto 336]

Hmm which reminds me )  last night the zombies were everywhere and I was tapping them with single shots to the head with the 22 and not pulling aggro from the rest which was cool. Decided to axe fight a few and see how the action was and the zombie ran up and right before it reached me, it warped badly and vanished and appeared and warped badly and vanished again and reappeared. Gasp. I was on a sever that was at 65 ping and everything else was running smooth.

Put the water at your back, jog don't sprint, pick apples/berries if you have to, be rewarded.

 

JK, it's in my tent sucka'.

Ouch, ya it has been tough for me as well the last couple weeks. People say leave the coast, but last night I found lots of stuff on the coast on the way to the apple orchard. No food though. I ended up trying out some steak tar tar and went unconcious from sickness a bit later. I'll have to remember, when it says "you feel very dizzy" that is the point to throw all my gear in the bushes cause I'm about to face plant. Ran again and stayed on the coast, apple orchard and then off to the north and nothing and nothing and every door was open, every outhouse was open, every car trunk was open, lol. The other players are very thorough in their searching. I was starving somewhere close to the tracks way up north and all I had found by that time was 43 wool coats and 42 hats. :-O

[barnabus 1708]

So I am on the coast right now, found a can of tuna in a light house and a little ways off (about 100 meters away) from that found another can of tuna in a deer blind.  All within sight of the high water mark on the coast, no more than 250 meters tops..   There was even a tower nearby that yielded a pristine combat knife and a pair of pristine military boots to store it in.

 

LOOK EVERYWHERE. 

 

Even and MOST ESPECIALLY the places you don't/didn't in the past normally look.  If you are not finding jackets and burlap sacks and rope on the coast then you are NOT looking in the right places.  STOP making bandages of your t-shirt right way, that will save you one slot in your jeans, I know, I know that this is a hard habit to break.

 

Do not by pass anyplace just because the door is open.  That does not mean squat.

You know it's super easy to start a fire and cook without matches now right? It's my new favorite thing cooking Berizio beef steaks.

 

I lold about the wool coats though, it took me from Svetlo to Kranostav to find a damn coat yesterday and I was saying "I'd even settle for a red wool coat right now" then I found a black m65.

 

Open doors don't mean shit, they have a random state (open/closed) depending on the server they reset to every restart as far as I can tell. I've shut myself in a room before a reset and it was open even though I'm the first person on after.
