Known Issues:
Door States are currently experiencing issues. In these situations, sometimes players can hear the sounds of doors opening/closing that might not actually be being interacted with.
Cooked Meat can in some cases cause survivors to become ill.
Server / Client position tracking improvements are still being worked on. In some cases, desynchronization of this information can occur and server/client or client/client disagreements will happen.
While the long running animation state problem of survivors constantly shouldering weapons seems to have been slain, we still have some edge cases where odd animation state behavior can be observed.
There are a few low repro server crashes still present, the frequency of these are fairly low and investigation on repro steps is ongoing.
Passenger Vehicle Position desynchronization is still below acceptable, and is slated for priority work on 0.59.
In some cases, while manipulating your inventory or crafting certain items a "false duplicate" item can be created. While this issue is currently under investigation, players can mitigate this by logging out and back in.
In some situations, all clients involved in a gunfight will not receive all proper gunshot sounds. This is currently being investigated.
Player camps of large size may experience issues interacting with and manipulating items. Survivors are encouraged to spread out camps of large size (2+ tents) until this issue is resolved.

Edit: Character gestures removed.

wur de servers?!

Wednesday Server Maintenance: Scheduled weekly maintenance occurs every Wednesday, at 06.00 GMT servers will go down for about 3 hours. Duration may very.

I cannot wait to see the reaction to this patch - good or bad. I think it's a great patch but I expect a lot of bad reactions from people used to easy access to high end guns. I honestly couldn't play .57 for an extended period of time, it so enraged me.

[Noctoras 409]

I think access to guns should be even harder. Make it what it is supposed to be, a survival game, not a combined jogging/KOS simulator - make interaction more meaningful.

 

That said, I think 0.58 a step in the right direction, CLE is also about to get better. Too bad real life is keeping me from playing these days :)

[robophant 102]

yay, it's stable! :thumbsup:

 

I liked the way of gun distribution and the lack of loot-explosions in the latest builds and I expect to see more players outside the usual high yield areas.

 

What I keep wondering about: Will we, at some point, see the current debug area populated with forests, mountains, lakes and such? Maybe even in a way that we can have a camp far out?

F#%* Yeah! *Happy Dance*

[Arthur Dubrovka 376]

Jeeeeha, Im so excited ^^

[S3V3N 1402]

Can someone post a message when the servers are online? I'm not sure I even downloaded an update, but my friends said they did.

[boneboys 7988]

There should be no need if you are coming from Exp but you should opt out of Exp build nevertheless.

Ohhh, I've not played in ages.. sounds like I might like this patch! High end guns should be incredibly rare /almost non existent IMO.

[SteenRNS 35]

There`s and insane amount of exp servers up now. How come? All full as well

agree. most guns you find should be old rusty unreliable badly damaged guns and no one shot kill alien super weapons.

Mad dash for the military locations for me, just need my glorious akm and a sidearm for zeds, and I can go back to my glorious mountain hermit lifestyle in the far northern reaches of the map, ive made living with a tent on the woods hunting the rare deer a feasible living option in last persistance enabled patch, hopefully i can do so again.

Can't wait, took a small break for a while (mainly because of my holiday).

Excited to start playing stable again!

That. It would not hurt, if melee weapons had a use in early game again either. Right now melee weapons are pointless. Everyone has a gun and is soon bored to no end and thus the KOS begins. Not blaming anyone for killing on sight, did so myself because of mere boredom - but I am still dreaming of a game, where there is a point to human interaction and where there is other problems than to choose, which of the available guns I pick up.

 

In other words, I long for a survival game ;)

 

Anyway, it's only ~2 hours till stable servers

sidearm for zeds

 

Lol. You won't need it.

 

On another note, every time I make plans based on a patching schedule, something delays the patch. I stayed up a little late, doing chores so I could play early this morning. It's 6 AM for me. You would think I'd know better by now.

Thanks devs, nice work!

My idea was using a bow as gun when they have the new animations and buff the bow.

It can be the best weapon for killing infected because of its silence. At the moment your better off with melee against infected unfortunately.

You can do that :)

 

Edit: But I think that there won´t be any infected in this build right now :(

Boneboys meant zero kb changing to last exp. build and there I did´nt see a single Z for a while.

But who knows...

I thought I read somewhere (could be wrong) that zeds spawns aren't client based. It may be that they can update servers to add them without the need for a new client.
