St. Jimmy 1631 Posted July 21, 2015 Also, there seems to be some wonkiness with BE, as I keep getting kicked because BE is not responding. Never, ever had that before since Dec 2013... :lol:Same here. Happened for the first time for me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tatanko 5591 Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) For those who don't wander around to other sites for their DayZ news: User: With server performance fixes and player position desync fixes, would it be possible to see an increase in max player (or even zombie) count per server in 0.58? Hicks: I don't want to look at increasing player count until I'm confident in the performance being comparable. We'll be looking at this in 0.59 experimental updates. https://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/3e39hm/status_report_21_july_15/ctb230z Looks like they'll be playing around with higher capacity servers again in 0.59 :) (60, 75, 80, 100, etc.) Edited July 21, 2015 by Tatanko 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thurman Merman 726 Posted July 21, 2015 So... my glowplug I spent weeks searching for is... gone? :(Glowplug? I had 6 batteries and 6 plugs. Oh the HUMANITY!!! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
finkieg 15 Posted July 21, 2015 Got home, got the update from steam, launched dayz and... Prospecting to craft a stone knife on the beach at dusk... Sigh... Didn't get to play much on the last build this past weekend. Just enough to get geared and provisioned to make it alone in the great north, complete with all the implements needed... Incl storage (tents, battery & glow plug, and a know location for a truck stash I could "borrow")Oh well... Back at it... I hear barrels are 'fixed'. Anyone confirm items placed in them are persistent? I passed up several on my way north Saturday.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BCBasher 2465 Posted July 21, 2015 Glowplug? I had 6 batteries and 6 plugs. Oh the HUMANITY!!! Kind of the story of my life, if it wasn't for bad luck I'd have none. Keeps me away from gambling though so there's that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
odin_lowe 3686 Posted July 21, 2015 I switched servers, and the wonkiness was gone. Helped a fellow survivor in Berezino, with some tips and food. Found great stuff to build my character, and it looks like loot distribution is way better than it was. I haven't checked any of the military tents yet, but no more houses with hundreds of jackets and shirts of all types! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not trying to push you away, but that kind of scenario is the norm for a branch dedicated to rapid iteration testing.

Up to 30 seems fine but 50 is noticeable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

creamycowboy 139 Posted July 21, 2015 First 10 minutes after spawning in fresh, heard a guy run up in the building I was in, "Hands up!" So I did, started talking, but I could barely understand him, no less than 45 seconds he wastes me. "Sorry". Gotta love those guys heh. I think next time I'll just toss a few right hooks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seitan (DayZ) 36 Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) Yeah. Found my first Barrel. :) Food, guns but no bullets anywhere up north. Bad desync at one point. It lasted like 5 mins but after that it was good smooth gameplay. Lots of battleye kics. Edited July 21, 2015 by Seitan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
odin_lowe 3686 Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) Hmm. Maybe it's just me that never tried it, or seen anything posted about that, but since when can you place the improvised suppressor on pistols? I used it a lot since it came out, on M4s, Steyr AUGs, Longhorn, CR527 and Win70 mostly, but when I tried to put it on a pistol I couldn't. I just made one for the CR527 I was carrying, and it vanished, but then I noticed on my hotbar that it was placed on the P1 I was carrying. Edit: Discard if this isn't new. <_< Edited July 21, 2015 by Odin Lowe 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IMT 3190 Posted July 21, 2015 Alright, another fix/update. Plant Material actually does fertilize the soil now, at least in a farming hut or however they are called. :) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

barnabus 1708 Posted July 21, 2015 Wow, serious loot nerf all over and in all types of buildings. One fire axe in the Berizino Fire Station, nothing, really, in the police station. I like. Best I have been able to get is a CR527 and three mags for it. Still looking for that hunting scope. Gotta run errands and with restart several hours away, well, we'll see what's what pretty soon.... With 12 hour restarts gonna be some hungry folks, I've stocked up and advise you guys do the same. I predict a serious spike in the incidence of cannibalism. Hanging in the north. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit: Discard if this isn't new. <_< I tried it when the improvised suppressor first came out and it wouldn't go on a Makarov or CZ75. From a realism standpoint and having made a few of these IRL the p1 and longhorn are the only ones I could see one of these not getting knocked off by handling or getting blown off by the first shot though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have plenty of pumpkins here to feed an army. :D So here I am trying to tan pelts in my red barrel that has 176 l of something in it that cannot be emptied...

Then suddenly your garden lime and animal pelts vanish from the barrel into oblivion and the barrel lid becomes openable once more...That part is working as intended other than your items disappearing with no byproduct to show for it. It's ~60 seconds you have to wait for the process to complete, and you can't open the lid because that would ruin what you're working on ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thurman Merman 726 Posted July 21, 2015 Spawned near Svet. Found a "Tent Car" that I carried around (in 1PP no less) for over an hour. Finally located a battery and plug. Who-Hoo!! Ran up to Karmenovka to see if the truck was there. Score! Can't fit the tent in the truck? WTF? I carried this POS for no reason? I stash the tent. Get in the car and head to my planned base way out west. I'll just have to run my ass all the way back over for the tent. Wrecked the truck less than 1km away. Just not my day. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IMT 3190 Posted July 21, 2015 *sigh*, another person needlessly died today, my second kill today already. First one was at Svet, everyone was looting and friendly until someone was shooting a Magnum at new spawns. He stood in the middle of the street, easy headshot with my chambered sporter. Second one was just now as I was about to leave Olsha, I offered this new spawn a pumpkin. In stead of accepting it he takes out his hammer to bash me with it. Gave him a taste of some .357 rounds. If he only accepted my offer, he'd still live. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
