Thurman Merman 726 Posted July 21, 2015 Parking still available... bring a bedroll though if you're staying, ground is a bit hard. I'm up to 7 trucks, but still only have 3 measly tents. I guess I know why now! :D 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thurman Merman 726 Posted July 21, 2015 Another question regarding managing body temperature that I have and will try to vet out later today, is whether or not the different clothing gear, summer vs. autumn for example have any varying affect. Summer gear for example could in theory be a less heavy material. Also curious if hats, gloves, etc. have any impact.Hats and gloves definitely have an impact. I overheat much more quickly wearing them. Don't know about summer/winter gear - never thought to pay attention to that (assuming it was just a color variant) - think I have some variety in one of my tents - will experiment if so.

Tatanko 5591 Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) We found some jerry cans and filled up the vs3 without refilling the jerry can itself so i don't know whats up with that.So you, like, drove the truck up to the pump and refueled it? I just want to be sure what you mean here. Everyone who is overheating or complaining about the temperature: stop sprinting!Don't tell me what to do!!!! :P Edited July 21, 2015 by Tatanko 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IMT 3190 Posted July 21, 2015 Another question regarding managing body temperature that I have and will try to vet out later today, is whether or not the different clothing gear, summer vs. autumn for example have any varying affect. Summer gear for example could in theory be a less heavy material. Also curious if hats, gloves, etc. have any impact.My guess is that they only determine pattern or color.Hats and gloves definitely have an impact. I overheat much more quickly wearing them. Don't know about summer/winter gear - never thought to pay attention to that (assuming it was just a color variant) - think I have some variety in one of my tents - will experiment if so.As expected, the headgear is the cause. The head affects the temperature the most, at least in real life. That's why I mentioned stripping from top to bottom. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wili 156 Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) Since the last experimental update, my camp 1 km away from Electro is still up, everything still there, campfire, weapons on the ground, backpack on the ground and all.All the things I hid inside Electro are gone again.

GaryWalnuts 1680 Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) Yesterday started out trying my hand at some hunting up north and came across this deerI tried robbing her but she wasn't very cooperative and refused to hand over her steaks willinglyShe was so stubborn that even after being killed she still wouldn't lie down Realizing that I've been in the woods waaay to long, I caught up with Bill and Dudester who were on the hunt for a V3S CargoAfter getting that rolling we saw a handful of central towns that were oddly devoid of any items, not even a bookWe finally started seeing some loot as we went north and followed it to Stary Yar where there was an abundance of loot, a few car batteries and gas cans. and as Dudester mentioned the gas cans didn't empty after we used them,we refilled the truck by repeatedly using the same two cans that we just found in Stary Yar - Free Refills!All in all it was another fun day in Chernarus,-One thought on the V3S inventory: eventually I'd like to see a slot specifically for a gas can and a spare tire. Since you can't carry them on your character (in the truck) and both would fill up the whole truck inventory Edited July 21, 2015 by GaryWalnuts 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Super_Duty 466 Posted July 21, 2015 While I'm thinking about it, has there been any discussion around building your own water well? Well points, steel hand driver, piping, hand pumps, etc.? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tatanko 5591 Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) SteamDB updates. Looks like a new Experimental should be incoming in the next few hours :) Edited July 21, 2015 by Tatanko 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LordBlackwolf 656 Posted July 21, 2015 Well, at least 30% of it was left there by players because it was ruined, damp or vests were filled with items.If you have the time maybe you could go there and see if you have a crash too?I've been there quite a few times while I was still playing and never once had a ctd. I would always get an error when exiting the game though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nl 986 Posted July 21, 2015 I've been there quite a few times while I was still playing and never once had a ctd. I would always get an error when exiting the game though.Yeah I've been there a bunch of times before too and never had a crash before, even when there was a loot explosion like this time. Something made me crash though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blackberrygoo 1416 Posted July 21, 2015 Can't wait for update ! Any ideas on what it could include ?!? I hope it's not just fixes .... Daddy's friends are coming over for my last day off and were getting a dayz crew together, any experimental boyz with the day off wanna experiment with us (that sounded weird but trust me it's all good lol )?! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Etherimp 1323 Posted July 21, 2015 Hoff and I have a camp wayyyy up north near the corner of the map.. We thought the area was mostly unpopulated although we saw a few signs of people occasionnally looting it. Then yesterday I logged in and found someone had been to our tents. A mosin with ghillie wrap and a ghillie head piece was gone. In its place an sks with ammo and a bunch of beef steaks.. Odd.. We had 3 truck batteries sitting in the other tent and other than the mosin and head piece nothing was touched. At first I was kind of pissed and a little on edge.. Then we found a house that had tons of clothing in it and a note on the floor. I don't usually even try to read notes anymore but something compelled me.. I clicked read note and it said "this is the house of a lone survivor".. With another nearby note that said " friends?".. We left notes of our own and about 9 fresh tomatoes from our crops. We're trying to arrange a meet with the guy. I'll post screens later. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eyecon (DayZ) 42 Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) this is my tent, i will drop some food and stuff in it for you. B)feel free to take what you want, its one of my "outposts" and i am not often there but i will travel to fill it up today. Awesome. Did you see the magnum there? Too bad it'll be gone today. I'll swing through there next time, with paper and pen and whatever extra goodies I pick up if you plan on continuing using that spot. Do you use the same name in game? I change mine regularly when bored but use "SepticTank" at the moment. This can be a good idea when a lot of pumps will be removed. There's far too many anyway. Dowsing sticks would be cool but can't imagine coding that animation. :D Can't wait for update ! Any ideas on what it could include ?!? I hope it's not just fixes .... Daddy's friends are coming over for my last day off and were getting a dayz crew together, any experimental boyz with the day off wanna experiment with us (that sounded weird but trust me it's all good lol )?! About what time and which server? I only have some errands to run before I'm stuck in the house due to the truck going into the shop. Regarding overheating: I'm not sure about the gloves but the head gear definitely is a factor. I think I'll stop wearing the motorcycle helmet since it takes up too much space in inventory. I've found that swimming slowly in a pond takes "overheating" down to "hot" very quickly but takes forever for "hot" to go away until you get out and just sit there wet. While in the water I get "I am overheatiing" and "I am rapidly cooling off" successively over and over. There goes my can of beans with the wipe. :) Edited July 21, 2015 by eyecon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nebulae3 420 Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) 'It should be a horde of zombies' - and a lot of gun shoots fighting for their life vs. the infected! ^_^I just quoted FrankieonPc1080 from his old standalone videos, but I agree with his view though.It should be a reason why there're so 'few' survivors left. :) Edited July 21, 2015 by Ori42 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

creamycowboy 139 Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) I've been wearing the police style uniform hat ( soviet officer I believe ) but I try to run around with my jacket off most of the time when space allows. Heat usually isn't an issue this way. I try to jog when I can but it just takes too long to get to where I need to go heh. I usually have a gas mask on as well, which I'm sure causes some heat issues, but I love it too much to take it off. Reckon I'll try running around with no lid. There is one server up atm: UK-0-3. Well it was up, not seeing it right now. Only had 1 person in it. Edited July 21, 2015 by Creamy Cowboy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
