ImpulZ 2491 Posted July 24, 2019 Hello Survivors on Xbox and PlayStation! We are happy to share some information on the private servers coming to your consoles soon. Private server support from our side will begin with the 1.04 update. This update was originally scheduled for the end of July, but as we had to resubmit the update, it might be delayed by a couple of days. We are well aware you can't wait to get your hands on this update and will keep you posted. However, this shouldn't stop you from preparing your start into a new game experience on private servers, as you can already pre-order your private DayZ server from our partner Nitrado. But what is a private server and what possibilities will it enable for server owners? We have compiled a FAQ for you, to answer the most pressing questions. Ask us below about any further details on the release of private servers for consoles. FAQ Q: What exactly do you mean by private servers? Like a player-made server that friends can join?A: A private server is a customised online game session. You can rent these servers from our server hosting partner Nitrado, and customise the experience to a certain extent, as we want to keep the game concept close to the Vanilla experience at the start. On this server, every player will have their unique character that they cannot transfer to a different server. Q: Will the private servers be persistent?A: Yes! You, as the server owner, can decide if you want to wipe your server or not. Q: What are the tools we get with it?A: The servers can be controlled via the Nitrado Web Interface, the smartphone App, and the Microsoft Store App (Xbox only). You will be able to control: Server name Password Time and time acceleration Maximum player count (up to 100) Which camera mode is used (1st or 3rd person) Access to the in-game logs, monitoring what's happening on your server Server messages Q: When are the servers available?A: The servers will be available once the 1.04 update goes live on your platform! You can pre-order your server now at https://nitra.do/dayz-private-servers Q: Where can I purchase a server?A: On Xbox, you have to download the Nitrado App where you can rent and administrate your server. If you are on PlayStation, you find all relevant information on the website of Nitrado, our server hosting partner. Please find all information on this website: https://nitra.do/dayz-private-servers Q: How would we go about with the private servers? Do we need to host from a PC?A: All servers will be hosted by our partner Nitrado. Q: Do we have to pay a monthly fee for them?A: Yes, you can find a complete list of the hosting prices at https://nitra.do/dayz-private-servers Q: Can I restrict who has access to my server?A: Yes, you can control who will have access to your server by setting up a password. Q: Can I make a hardcore server (1st person view only)?A: Yes, you can choose to enforce the hardcore or classic camera perspectives. Q: Will I be able to change the time progression and acceleration?A: Yes, you can decide how fast time goes by on your server, and at what time the server is after a restart. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
