ImpulZ 2491 Posted December 10, 2018 Hello Survivors, we are coming closer to our 1.0 date and as you probably can imagine we are finalising the build. This one is going to include a completely new server browser, so please test what you can and report all the bugs! Please verify your game files before playing the new update, and report all bugs you encounter! Keep in mind that Experimental updates are not available for server files or modding tools yet. Those will be updated with the Stable release of the patch. Patchnotes ADDED Added: New server browser Added: Localization to Launcher Added: Field shovel, farming hoe and ice axe can now be used to dig a garden plot FIXED Fixed: Client/server crashes Fixed: Client/server errors related to in-game actions Fixed: VoN not working when 3 or more people talking Fixed: Infected are having trouble navigating stairs Fixed: Player can make level_3_wall_3 parts on Watchtower disappear Fixed: CPR with barrel in hands causes characters hand to glitch Fixed: It is possible to ruin watchtower/fence with single shot Fixed: Power generator looks and sounds on even if its switched off Fixed: Hidden stash can be visible in vicinity Fixed: Strange facial animations that sometimes happen in vehicles Fixed: Issues with planting seeds Fixed: Bottles and canteens can be filled with fuel TWEAKED Tweaked: Weather Tweaked: Damage system Tweaked: Some item sizes KNOWN ISSUES Server crashes can cause a persistence wipe. So especially for server owners, try to work with regular persistence backups and if you encounter server crashes, report with your crash dumps to our Feedback Tracker. If you have any proven reproduction steps for persistence wipes, let us know. The team is working on a long-term solution, which unfortunately will take some time. Clothes cannot be taken off restrained/unconscious characters. This update causes a server wipe (characters should not be affected). Notes Consider using the Steam client option to verify the integrity of the local game cache to avoid corrupted data after downloading this update. In case of problems, please check the Bohemia Interactive support F.A.Q., DayZ F.A.Q., or BattlEye F.A.Q. 2 1 1 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kozzy420 39 Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) Thanks for the update, looks like a good one! Just hope that server crash causes persistence wipe issue gets worked out soon... only few more days go to.

Guess all those coming back for 1.0 will leave after a week when their base is gone then. It can be "fixed" by server hosts by backing upp the data regularly and reload the backup on crashes, but that's up to individual servers. 3 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't understand why persistence backup and restoration is not baseline for the server files. Should not be up to server owners to create, or? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It can be "fixed" by server hosts by backing upp the data regularly and reload the backup on crashes, but that's up to individual servers. The issue with regular backups and restores is the work involved sure there is a batch file someone made (that takes a lot of work to get useable for most people), but besides that it's not a simple process to backup and restore the server. It's actually a step that should not be necessary. Same with mods, the server should have a way to update the mods it is running, but that has been overlooked badly too. As a server owner myself, I know that my players are off on other games waiting for 1.0 expecting miracles. Sadly I think this issue not being fixed in 1.0 will have most of them uninstalling. As for reproducing the bug bohemia it's as as pie. Turn the server off with the x button (considering you haven't given a #restart command), this simulates both a crash and incorrect shutdown. If you do it just as it's cycling or saving your data is corrupted and stuff is lost. It's really not rocket science to reproduce the issue.

krazikilla 106 Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) BIS, seriously. Releasing a 1.0 in this state is not a joke anymore. This. Is. MADNESS! Not only, did you cut a lot of features and contents, no, there are also still loads of gamebreaking bugs in it. (not mentioning smaller bugs) This will be a PR desaster. You know it and still go for it.. Why? - Persistence not working in 1.0 - Zombies spawning right next to you (less than 3 meters!) - Sicknesses (Coughing, Sneezing), NOT curable - coughing and sneezing all 5 seconds, instead of for example all 2 minutes. - Cars still jumpy and buggy as hell - Handsup animation "F5" completly bugged, you get stuck when you press F5 - getting handcuffed while beeing in F2 animation will completly break your character. You have to reconnect AND THEREFOR DIE, to fix the glitched animation. - bugged sun glare in the middle of the screen - occasionally. only a restart of game can fix it. - you cannot refuel a car with bottles and canteens. Only jerrycan is working. Edited December 10, 2018 by krazikilla 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It can be "fixed" by server hosts by backing upp the data regularly and reload the backup on crashes, but that's up to individual servers. Interesting, the stable server me and my friends have been on persistence has worked great, over 3 weeks we have 9 medium tents, some base building, a vehicle (which we have had before the base and tents), Vehicle tent and 7 barrels, everything is still there. The server does go down for some pretty long periods though, but that must be helping with the persistence working. I hope they get persistence working on all servers asap and not just ones that server owners backup often. I love the game and the new engine, had a blast the last 3-4 weeks,etc.. but if persistence isn't working on most servers, this is not good, the average person will leave right away if all there stuff is gone. Looks like I will be looking for another server that back up the data regularly. Edited December 10, 2018 by kozzy420 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It can be "fixed" by server hosts by backing upp the data regularly and reload the backup on crashes, but that's up to individual servers. Their answer to THE BUGS THEY CREATED is for server owners to backup persistence in about 5 or 10 minute intervals. I guarantee you they are not doing that on public EXP or stable. Plus the problem is AREA based not always server wide. This is the dumbest answer to give to the community who pays for their own servers out of their own pockets. It's like a mechanic telling you, you need to keep putting oil in your brand new car... we'll eventually get that oil leak fixed, but you keep spending money on putting oil in it while you drive it. While this shit was Alpha... that was one thing, but NOW that it's being released.... this excuse doesn't work! You are pissing in the face of your supporters and community. New players won't have a clue what the fuck is going on, other than this is a broke ass game that shouldn't have been released.

bingo_fuel 205 Posted December 10, 2018 The new server browser got really slow while loading the complete server list. This happend after I changed some filter settings while it was refreshing. After 1000 loaded servers the sound started stuttering and the gui did not respond to mouse clicks. I can reprodce it with the following filters set Ping: < 200 Battleye: Show Passworded: Hide The list starts to populate but slows down more and more and then the sounds starts cutting out.

Akarias303 9 Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) I hate to be rude and sound like an echo chamber, but you cannot release a damm game that relies on persistence to give meaning to its gameplay and have that persistence crap out at just about any time. You are making a very bad PR decision here. Server crashes are bound to happen due to the nature of the game and varying server hardware (Process hangs etc).

kozzy420 39 Posted December 10, 2018 Able to get onto a server now from the browser, seems smooth so far running around and getting loot. No crashes yet while in game, just in the browser earlier. Will play a bunch more today and see how it goes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mallette 46 Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) About persistence / base building : One of the only new feature is not worth doing ... You should really delay 1.0.

Seitan 161 Posted December 10, 2018 Really recommend verifying the integrity of the local game cache. First it downloaded 240MB update for me.

IMT 3190 Posted December 10, 2018 Every time I keep saying to myself "can they surprise me even more?". Time and time again, you guys pull it off. Sadly the release has been set and despite our best efforts the solution will not be ready by then. "Dear survivors, we decided to postpone the release of DayZ/1.0 to a later stage. The reason for this is because the core gameplay loop is not optimal at the moment and still needs bugfixing, tweaking and balancing". Oh my god, how did I do that? The date has suddenly been postponed, amazing! Now there are 3 very important keywords in my text "core gameplay loop". All the content and features have been cut because you guys wanted to release DayZ with its core gameplay loop in place and stable. A core gameplay loop without persistence, not to mention a shit ton of other stuff. I don't understand it, seriously, I don't. You guys always stated that you love DayZ, even more than the community. I can hardly imagine that you guys can and will be happy with the release, but still you guys persist (no pun intended) in releasing the game. Despite the majority of the community telling you not to and even telling you guys "we don't care if we need to wait a little bit longer". It's actually kind of hilarious, we have been waiting for so long and now the community is asking for more time and now you guys don't listen. I wonder if it's a joke... can someone point me where the camera's are? 1 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
