Tatanko 5591 Posted September 25, 2015 Wow, one month of 0.58 "stable", without zombies, bad performance etc, and not even a new experimental yet...0.59 is bringing some fairly extensive behind-the-scenes changes a ton of new content, so this shouldn't be a huge surprise. Work was delayed temporarily for the hotfix, too. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bingo_fuel 205 Posted September 25, 2015 Some servers do reset persistence every four hours - I guess this is just a trick to pull more players on the server or are there any remaining major loot releated problems after the hotfix? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gsfilmer 71 Posted September 25, 2015 Some servers do reset persistence every four hours - I guess this is just a trick to pull more players on the server or are there any remaining major loot releated problems after the hotfix?My guess is that they are trying to force M4A1s to spawn. I don't know if that actually works and if so I don't so much care. I think by next patch the devs will force all NATO gear back to the helis which I hope will spread out the population some. Everyone heads to the NW now so maybe now they'll be accustomed to leaving the coast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barnabus 1708 Posted September 25, 2015 Yeah it shouldn't get damp/wet under any circumstances. It's not waterproof.Untrue! I have found many Gorka jackets that were out in the rain showing as "damp" until I put them on. It might still be waterproof. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barnabus 1708 Posted September 25, 2015 Any word on the release of .59 to experimental? I have seen exactly one zed in .58, am bored and have been playing H1Z1, which, is pretty fricking easy if you ask me. Need .59 soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tatanko 5591 Posted September 25, 2015 Nice find! Jump in the water, if it doesn't get "damp" status after a few seconds then it's waterproof (0% absorption)Untrue! I have found many Gorka jackets that were out in the rain showing as "damp" until I put them on. It might still be waterproof.When was this, Barnabus? In 0.58, the Gorka jackets aren't waterproof anymore (and I'm not sure when it actually changed). Instead, they are 5% absorption which is so-close-it-hurts.

Thurman Merman 726 Posted September 25, 2015 (edited) Anyone know how many barrels are on a given server? I've got 14, but cannot for the life of me find a 15th. I've spent days just wandering random forests looking for camps and have looked in virtually every single town on the map. ETA: I did find a camp with a single barrel, but didn't want to take their only one. Edited September 25, 2015 by Thurman Merman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've spent days just wandering random forests looking for camps and have looked in virtually every single town on the map.Are you playing on private? I once found 8 in a single town. Then I just serverhopped that town and almost always found 1-2 more and brought them to the first server. They can be in the remotest of sheds by the way, there is always plenty of those spread around towns. Try again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have seen exactly one zed in .58, am bored and have been playing H1Z1, which, is pretty fricking easy if you ask me. Need .59 soon. Me too. I've been brushing up on heli piloting in ARMA for the upcoming aircraft, taxiing my short attention span ten year olds around just to have them run over the next hill and get killed within thirty seconds of insertion has been the challenging to say the least, at least. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which has been a real pain lately, as loot respawning is a bit janky on private. Looted towns seem to stay empty forever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kohlbar 270 Posted September 26, 2015 Hi guys, I have an AKM and I want to love it and kiss it and kill people with it but I have noticed it has a bit of a recoil to it. Does anybody know if the AKM gun is supposed to shoot like this? I feel like an 8 year old picking up his first gun when I fire and the barrel goes straight to the sky! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, AKM will be that one gun that takes you back to kindergarden times for now. Some people seem to be content with how it is, I find it extremely unfitting and a bad balance attempt.

jayfkay (DayZ) 185 Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) only way to use the AKM without shooting the stars is laying prone with attached bipod.Bohemia logic:AKM has a powerful round and allrounder capacities, being able to snipe with a PSO and squadwipe with a drummag. Nerf the recoil into uselessness. And give the M4 a 120 Round drummag.( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Edited September 26, 2015 by jayfkay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

koffeekage 322 Posted September 26, 2015 im having trouble attaching this to the ak74 rail, is this not functioning right now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eno 1049 Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) im having trouble attaching this to the ak74 rail, is this not functioning right now? I think the word is you have to detach it (the rail assuming it's already on the weapon), paint it black, then reattach it... I think that opens it up for attachments (bug).

Instead, they are 5% absorption which is so-close-it-hurts.Yes in .58, earlier in this week past and it was damp on the ground in a hanger when I picked it up. I changed out of my soaked hunting jacket and into it as soon as I repaired it, it did just fine out in the rain, kept me dry enough. I have not had an issue being wet with Gorka Gear, even after swimming over to the prison. Must be wonkey is all I can guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
