Baty Alquawen 3688 Posted January 5, 2017 Hello Survivors! We have a new update for Experimental branch today. What is new? Fireplaces can be placed in houses. Thunder and lightning should not be appearing randomly on the sky anymore. Vehicles should not fall through terrain. We're still working on improving server performance, which when poor can cause the following issues: Infected can push characters through/into model geometry causing movement issues (unable to move in a given direction) Collision/Navigation in some complex structures can push your character around Issues with door states can occur Damage being delayed 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

☣BioHaze☣ 7337 Posted January 5, 2017 (edited) *Repeat suggestion. Ponchos (common) and rain covers for backpacks (uncommon) definitely should have a place in DayZ. Here's my Blue and Yellow Mountain backpack fairly well stuffed (actually expands longer vertically) for the trip to my girlfriends place in Brooklyn. Tonight there is snow in the forecast so I am packing all of my rain gear for the ride home tomorrow. In the first pic you can see my Carhartt rubber rain pants rolled up and secured inside the netting on one side (the pink bag on the other side is my tube replacement kit). I'll wear the rain jacket and boots (Brown rubber Boggs) today though it's dry, they are great for the -0 temps as well. The Camelback branded rain cover on my bag keeps the back pack surprisingly dry! It all kind of took the shape of an ALICE pack so I wanted to share for that reason as well... :P Edited January 5, 2017 by ☣BioHaze☣ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lol the video is just pitch black for me, i can see the text but that's it. And now with the thunder and lightning fix, I'm just waiting for that updated sfx and flash of bright light in the sky. I'm gonna be intentionally looking for a raining server just to play with that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

igor-vk 909 Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) Last night I learned that Trumpet sucks against zeds. Not even headshot kills them. And its loud. Zeds aggro from greater distance, cause bleeding more often and ruin clothes. Some zeds didn't jump over fences. Edited January 6, 2017 by igor-vk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would be really nice to see that these weapons can at least kill an infected one shot into the head. I hope new damage system will be able to provide this feature :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thurman Merman 726 Posted January 6, 2017 So, driving a V3S and the server crashes. I'm back where I last entered the truck. The truck is not there. Is it gone? A predictable spot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A predictable spot? So, think I figured the answer out. Guess all non-persistent items reset on a server crash. Bc none of the vehicles were in the spots I had seen them in the last 20 minutes. :sadbanana: I had 2 barrels on that truck. Also, the helicrash where I respawned was gone, but all the loot was still on the ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
