BleedoutBill 1636 Posted June 9, 2015 I'm seeing some kind of new loot config in action. More loot of various types spawning in all kinds of locations. Red roof barn (well varied loot from food to weapons), log cabin (clothesplosion, ammo, food) feeding stations (scopes, shotgun, crossbow). The loot dispersal is looking much much better. This may be the regional loot controls we hear about. Really nice to see!! :thumbsup:They have definitely configured a couple more spawn points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zeroy 240 Posted June 9, 2015 Strange bug - No matter how much I eat, I can't get past dark green energized. Also took me a long long time but eventually went bright green energized and healthy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zeroy 240 Posted June 9, 2015 Also, swam over to Prison Island. If you want your choice of 800 jackets, go. If you want food, ammo or guns, don't waste your time. :D Found a few jackets all right! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tatanko 5591 Posted June 9, 2015 I'd say it was pretty similar. Did you have to put tree resin on the torch, or is that still optional?That picture is from an earlier build of 0.57, and I didn't put resin on it (didn't even know you could at the time). Not sure if it's still optional or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BleedoutBill 1636 Posted June 9, 2015 Also took me a long long time but eventually went bright green energized and healthy I would have thought that two packs of rice, a box of cereal, a dozen cans of food and two dozen apples would have gotten me bright green but I guess I'm mistaken. I'll try some more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robophant 102 Posted June 9, 2015 (edited) Hungry? Have some apple! I'm serious, I was 'dying from starvation' already when I decided not to give up this one time - So I walked up to one of them apple trees, screen already fading grey, and used the "search for apples"-feature.After about 15-20 minutes I was energized and hydrated to the max. (The only weird thing is, it just won't show the 'healing'-thingy, even though both indicators are on bright green. Screen is still grey) (The even weirder thing is, how can my guy first fail to see apples on an apple tree and after several attempts he finally finds one apple? I mean, either there are apples or there are no apples, right? It's an apple tree! I mean, it's not as if apples are sneaky little buggers which are trying to hide behind leafs just in case they get picked. Just failing to "see" them while dying from starvation seems pretty ironic in a survival game like dayz) Edited June 9, 2015 by robophant Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm honestly not sure if eating enough apples to have explosive diarrhea the likes of which no mortal could survive is worth it vs simply starving to death.

odin_lowe 3686 Posted June 9, 2015 (The only weird thing is, it just won't show the 'healing'-thingy, even though both indicators are on bright green. Screen is still grey) As far back as I can remember, the healing status only appears past a certain blood level. You start regenerating blood and health as soon as you drink and eat, no need to have bright green energized, but it speeds up the process. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All the while the screen is grey it won't show healing. ninjad lol Edited June 9, 2015 by stinkenheim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haven923 65 Posted June 9, 2015 Ahh. Well that is the thing about fixing stuff, ya break stuff fixing stuff sometimes. I remember a firefight with some well geared guy that opened fire on me from behind and missed cause I had just made a turn (sheer luck) he had a protective case inside a protective case inside and it went on and on like 9 deep lol. It was real easy to loot from the bottom, cause I could just put 4 things next to each other into it and then put it in that spot. I could only take 8 of them at the time and cried leaving one behind. Lately people have been saying that they put a rifle into their inventory and it vanished, but they found it later in a flare gun. hehehe. Looks like storage is a mess on whatever update this is.I've seen the flare gun glitch, too. Had a bow that I was rockin' for a while and dropped it up at black castle to pick up a flanged mace. Saw a flre gun on the ground with my bow chambered into it. flare gun shooting a bow shooting an arrow? Dibs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mizzou60 81 Posted June 9, 2015 (edited) I saw alot of Buildings up in the Air is that a known bug? I never had that before so im not sure... The Game still runs very slow for me maybe i got the wrong settings but in 0.55 my FPS where much better maybe twice as much realy sad. If the game runs so slow when it hits stable i have to stop playing or take a long break. I saw this last time I was in Svetlo but its just that the block foundation around the buildings didn't generate for some reason. Pretty funny how you can walk completely under the church and see everything inside but cannot get in through the front door. Hopefully they'll get this fixed soon.

☣BioHaze☣ 7337 Posted June 9, 2015 That mag was found at a guardhouse not a helicopter crash site. Also, I'm surprised to find so many guardhouses untouched or nearly untouched. I really like finding the mixture of stuff in civilian house. Backpack, carbine, magnum, food, all in one orange upstairs only house. Twice now I have found a magazine to match a gun within about 50-100 meters of the firearm. The one I remember best was the tailgate of a pickup had a carbine mag on it, and the carbine was in the house just down the street. This makes sense, to have some nearby proximity of firearm to it's magazine. Of course, one day we will see mags spawning in guns empty, partially loaded, or full. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm very excited to see what else comes from a more advanced inventory matrix. Possibly storage for vehicles and different levels of crafting. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but some time ago it was said that every weapon (or maybe it was just firearms?) is technically a "vehicle" in the game engines eyes (or something like that). This makes them readily modular in ways items with different classes or types, are not. Upgrades to the matrix could open up some of the crafting/improving/modifiying of weapons at the soon to be accessible crafting stations.

IMT 3190 Posted June 9, 2015 The SVD should be around and that would be a nice weapon for those rounds. Sorry to hear your having problems, it might be that autoswap issue. I manually take the rifle out of my hands. I noticed the last time I had this problem was when I stepped over a fence and it autoswap put my rifle away for some unknown reason and then my rifle was a mess stuck and my hands were stuck empty.I handle my weapon also manually, so that isn't it. It did put my Mosin on the ground (instead of my back) when I volted, thought for a second there it was gone. :D Not sure but I think I put my gun away and took it back out after that, so that isn't the case I guess. And for the SVD you need to be at military bases I guess? Those things are long looted by now so no chance of finding a SVD. And going there without a gun, nah-ah. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
