IkaikaKekai 1957 Posted April 27, 2016 There will be a thunderous roar from the heavens, as a choir of angles desecend, and booming voice bestows, "It be Ready(tm), so sayith...you know what I can't keep up this level of sarcasm anymore. It'll probably just go live, might be a tweet and forum post within an hour before or after it goes live. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
emuthreat 2837 Posted April 27, 2016 Just keep your eyes on all the usual places. Somebody on Twitter, Reddit, or these-here forums will start a topic as soon as the files can be seen on steam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No AKM and 120 rounds of 7.62, no hot potato, no nothing? 0.60 will hit experimental first, like most of the time a new patch comes out, and will incubate for a while. When it's "ready", it'll be pushed to stable in the Wednesday maintenance. If not, then they will warn us that the patch will hit stable at another date. As for 0.60 hitting experimental, there's no warning. We (the community) tend to warn ourselves via various social media and whatnot. I do admit that I miss Eugene's Tweets...

ebrim 998 Posted April 28, 2016 I imagine the drop of 0.60 will be like the entry of Thor in Kung Fury. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quite simply, out in the main portion of the forum, you see an experimental patch area discussion and when .60 hits experimental, there will be a new forum called Exp Update:0.60 There will also be a pile of new messages in there of all of us going crazy like a shark feeding frenzy. Once that new forum thread is up, there should be the ability to download and enjoy the new .60 experimental patch and once again, we will be able to get beaten up and eaten on the beach while getting a flake knife.

Funkmaster Rick 373 Posted April 28, 2016 One day you'll log into DayZ and it'll already be running .60, but I imagine you knew that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SMoss 2101 Posted April 29, 2016 We'll make an announcement via Twitter and create a new topic for 0.60 in the Experimental Patch Discussion section. I don't know how long of a notice there'll be since 0.60 will be pushed as soon as it's greenlighted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woody2 25 Posted April 29, 2016 Thanks Smoss. The reason I asked is that I have 2 servers, both Private, and I want to close one of them. In order for players not to lose their current characters on there, it makes sense to do this when 0.60 comes in as everyone will be starting from scratch anyway. Will the servers update automatically or is there something I will need to do to enable that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also run a couple servers and every time an update has come out the GSP has updated everything on their end. No need for the admin to do any work other than re-tweeking a couple of settings you had before, as they may have been changed back to the default during the update.
