Back on the DayZ crack

Hi, long break waiting on patches and content. Hows it all going out there in Cherno? Whats up with infected?

In Cherno? Jeeze, do people still go there? Seriously though, don't go to Chernogorsk. Not yet, anyway. The new renderer (praise be!) should be coming out in bits and pieces in the near future. Once it's working steadily, we can all go party in Cherno again.

Lots of new population centres. Erm, well, uh, former population centres, I guess. The North is getting more and more crowded. There are more and more reasons to live the hobo lifestyle, wandering from place to place, not the least of which is a new take on loot distribution that restricts some gear to increasingly small circles, eventually ending with the NWAF - the Central Loot Economy, as it's called, is not yet complete but is set to guide the way loot is collected, to generally keep people moving.

Speaking of people, not much has changed on that front: interaction is still risky, situation depending. Bullets tend to outweigh greetings, but that's just my experience, and I occasionally hear different stories from others.

There are vehicles. CARS! Not the best handling, pain in the ass to assemble, and fairly likely to get you shot when the gear-shift sound (which sounds like a solid steel I-beam bumped into a concrete wall) rings out. Helicopters are a ways off but coming. Base building is still a ways off, but coming. Tents seem to work mostly alright.

Vitamins still don't do a damn thing. Good luck out there.
