Baty Alquawen 3688 Posted December 14, 2017 Hello! We added some Christmas stuff today. :) Enjoy your holidays in Chernarus! UPDATE: We want to apologize for the delayed update. We had an issue with the central economy but it should be ok now. Christmas gifts should start spawning in 24 hours. Let me know when you find any christmas gift, please. UPDATE2: Currently, everything works fine on Experimental servers and you can find Christmas boxes with rare loot, beards and Santa's hats there. We are still having some issues on Stable servers with the central economy, you will not be able to find any Christmas boxes there at the moment, but guys are working on it. Fix will be ready on Monday for QA tests, gifts will be on the Stable branch on Tuesday or Wednesday. Sorry for complication. 2 3 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been to two trees now and haven't found any presents :( All the presents I found in experimental were scattered around and spawned where loot usually spawn, and NOT under the trees. Take note these screenshots are from EXPERIMENTAL branch. There's a very good chance the gifts will spawn the same way, and will be scattered around the map. On a side note, cars seem to spawn them very often. ;) I will post back when I've found some on stable branch. Cya fellas! 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pliskinki 52 Posted December 14, 2017 Whoever had the idea for these boxes, give the person a hug and some xmas cake! This has bumped my gas back up to play DayZ, I've played a lil bit in Experimental, found some boxes with really good stuff and now I have a good reason to go and scavenge the world instead of just going straight to military areas to fight for loot. Now is time for my stashed VSS to shine, it is now manageable to use and upkeep. Thanks devs, I really wish these boxes get ported in a form of supply boxes with more mixed up loot then the actual gift boxes when xmas ends, this will for sure make geared people go to random spots around the map creating fun and unexpected encounters and skirmishes. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StayGold 3 Posted December 14, 2017 @Baty Alquawen Are the Santa Hat and Beard included in the patch as well or just the Gift Boxes? Either way, thank you for including these awesome presents into one of the last minor updates of 2017 for Stable Branch servers. I hope you and the rest of the DayZ Development Team and everyone else at Bohemia Interactive have an awesome Štědrý den, a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!!

Baty Alquawen 3688 Posted December 15, 2017 I have some info for you about the situation on Stable servers. Currently, everything works fine on Experimental servers and you can find Christmas boxes with rare loot, beards and Santa's hats there. We are still having some issues on Stable servers with the central economy, you will not be able to find any Christmas boxes there at the moment, but guys are working on it and I hope it will be resolved today. Fix will be ready on Monday for QA tests, gifts will be on the Stable branch on Tuesday or Wednesday. Sorry for complication. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AmazingAussie 38 Posted December 18, 2017 (edited) The presents seem to be working on private shards and experimental, but not the public servers on either official or community . Edited December 18, 2017 by AmazingAussie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
