Hello Survivors! The 1.04 Platform Update of DayZ on Xbox and PlayStation is now live. This update is a combination of the 1.03 and 1.04 updates. The comprehensive new update brings you an expansion of the disease system and gives purpose to several medical items. On the combat side, we've added two new assault rifles from the trusty KA family, the factory-suppressed VSS, as well as an arsenal of grenades as survivors discover their ability to throw items. Furthermore the update includes NVGs and the Universal Flashlight to your Tactical Helmet, and two brand new belt models! Moreover, the infected have upgraded as well!   New Vehicle Gunter 2 The Gunter 2 is a small first generation family hatchback with front wheel drive.   New Weapons VSS Selective-fire, integrally suppressed marksmen rifle, fed from a detachable magazine. Compatible with KA scopes, using 9x39mm rounds.   KA-74 The KA-74 is a selective-fire assault rifle, fed from a detachable magazine. It was introduced in the 1970s, as the replacement of the KA-M with compatible attachments. It uses 5.45x39mm rounds.   KA-101 The KA-101 is a selective-fire assault rifle, fed from a detachable magazine. This is an export version of the modernized KA-74M with compatible attachments.

You will receive a warning about that during your login-time.     Patchnotes NOTES In case of problems, please check the Bohemia Interactive support F.A.Q. or the DayZ F.A.Q.
