The weight and stamina calculation bug is still at large and it is pretty game breaking, since no matter how lightly you're travelling sooner or later you'll be unable to sprint or climb obstacles. I had a nearly empty mountain bag that weighed 46 kgs at one point. Haven't noticed any other issues though, so if they get a patch for that out today 1.08 could possibly be on stable before the weekend.

I agree that this miscalculation would have required a hotfix.

I stopped playing Experimental since the 'fixing' of the weight because my two fully geared chars are useless now.

It was answered in this topic, the topic is about the pc version.

Can we expect better server performance in the near future? Do PC servers of nitrado run smoother with 60+ slots when full pop?

Are you asking in comparison to console servers? Historically, GSPs always hand out oversubscribed VMs to run any servers. This is apart from any code issues.

I think the better question is whether BI can get Nitrado to offer dedicated servers or other vendors.

Dear Bohemia, please answer a series of questions:
Why is there no loot balance on official servers? I’ve been running for a year now and I can’t find the vss , ammunition is almost on the shore. Why go on tisi? Helicrash low.
Why are updates rare? We bought a few copies of the game?
When will all the features of the 62 patch?
This is your engine - can't you handle it?

Why can’t you add an eyecup for the PSO?
Why can't add an as val and a magazine for 20 rounds?
Why does sprint food go faster than water?
Why can't add a night vision scope for NATO rifles?
Why does not visually ruin with a visor?
Why is the damage at 7.62 and 5.56 and 5.45 almost the same? 7.62 should almost take one shot ... in the head like that in any helmet for sure

similar to the janitor sat down at the computer and said "shit what is this? what is enfusion?"

idk what you mean but i used M4A1 and the modded in AUG rifle... literally useless... when i shoot with an AK or Mosin... that's when the guns do something in a lot fo cases one shots... even the AK-74 does... idk where you getting the damage is all the same from xD

Yeah I was asking if Nitrado servers on PC are running smooth above 60 slots when full pop. On console there is lot of lag and rubberbanding on 60+ slot servers when full pop, kinda unplayable.

I can remember when community servers came out on console there were many 100 slot servers online but the owners quickly realized that it's not worth the money as those servers were running pretty bad, which is imho a real shame considering the ammount of money they cost!

What hardware is required to run a 100 slot server smoothly (without mods for console)?

Imho the ammo>dmg design is broken... It seems like that the devs are too lazy to adjust this.

We are aware of this issue and will be fixing it in the future updates.

Thanks for the reply.

Something about the sun/shadow glitch?

It literally ruin some of the most atmospheric moments in DayZ...sunrise and sunset...

But sadly I saw (video from 2016) this is a long bug never fixed.

My fear is that you not even consider it as a bug...

This happened to me last night.  I reloaded a B95 and could no longer aim down sights until I went prone, and stood back up, right in the middle of a firefight with three other people.

Modded servers is not a good reference, some of them are running rebalance mods. Fact of the matter is that in vanilla 5.45, 5.56 and 7.62x39 all do equal damage, there is no difference between them at all. There is some difference in accuracy and recoil handling of the weapons, but damage output is identical. It is possible that they have some variety in damage dropoff from distance, I don't know those parameters.

7.62x54 and .308 hit nearly twice as hard as the lesser AR rounds.

doesn't matter i used vanilla M4 and vanilla AKM the AK is much better at doing damage and the 7.62x54mmR is mostly a one shot... M4 really sucks compared to AK 😛

What rifle it is that fires the round doesn't matter, it is the round that causes damage. 5.45, 5.56 and 7.62x39 have equal damage output. Some servers use mods that rebalance the damage output of various ammo, that is probably what you have experienced.

yea but how does AK deal more damage then an M4 ? xD

Are you not reading? If they are running some rebalance mod the server admin could have set the damage values to whatever he wants, that is why using what happens on modded servers as reference is awkward.

How about a phone call to Battleeye … To find out WHY these speed hackers are EVERYWHERE.. and nothing seems to being done about it.

[Asmondian 372]

Just providing some feedback after testing the EXP builds. Since this seems to be a basebuilding + cooking focused update, I think you guys should really consider:

1. Increasing the basebuilding required items and/or reducing the nominal for nails: With the new basebuilding destroying concept (A step in the right direction IMO), and the general nerf - in this last build - in the materials you get back from dismantling basebuilding structures, there is a chance to overflow servers with empty/dead bases or locked houses as it is extremely easy to get the building materials and now, quite hard to destroy those. IMO basebuilding should be a task that could only be accomplished after a lot of time spent in the game (and with group efforts) and not something that any player can actually do with just a few hours of play. Currently, any semi-experienced player can get the necessary tools/materials and build a fairly large base all by himself in less than 2 hours. Reducing the nominal for the required basebuilding tools and/or increasing the basebuilding required items for every structure could be a good way to prevent this.
2. Tools spawning condition: Items like axes, hatchets, hammers, pliers should not spawn in perfect pristine condition. It’s not very realistic in relation to the lore of the game or even good for the basebuilding balance. Players should need to repair those items in the first place in order to get the most out of them, and the repairing process should be quite punishing too. I mean, you would probably find the majority of the tools in a damage condition, and you would need to use a sharpening or whetstone more than once to get them to a worn state.
3. Nerfing the wooden crates and drybags: Since this seems to be a basebuilding/storage + cooking patch, another thing that many players have been asking for a long time (even many servers do it in through mods) is a slot nerf for wooden crates and drybags. I think we all know that underground stashes are probably the most OP item storage method since its addition to the game so if you add the possibility of using this method to storage long weapons (inside to containers that are unlimited, such as the Drybags and the Wooden Crates), you're somehow limiting the natural circulation of loot within the game. The changes in persistence, the possibility to dismantle them (Crates) and the increase of necessary materials are def. welcome changes, but a reduction of a horizontal slot (to avoid the permanent stock of long weapons) I think would be an extremely positive change and would force players to use the other existing storage methods that are not really considered in the vanilla experience.

Have a good one!

There are a few community servers that have mods fixing this issue. Sadly they have fallen into the trend of having it as part of their exclusive server mods and not sharing it on the Workshop (a very unattractive trend by the way). So, considering how disruptive the bug is and the fact a mod can circumvent it, how come it is not among the fixes in 1.08? 

Hey,

I am going to assume you mean me. I wrote the cooling down for items code for DayzUnderground. I don't share my code indeed freely indeed, just for DUG. I did send how I did it to Sumrak with permission to integrate into DayZ however he feels. As we (from DUG) have shared many other fixes and things.

Just because code is not publicly available doesn't mean we don't care.

To those complaining about the same damage from different caliber rounds.

Do you really think that if a 7.62x39 round makes a bigger "entry hole" it deals more damage to a living organism? Well, lol, go read some stuff, learn a few things, kiddies.

There's a reason why 5.45 was implemented by the eastern block, and 5.56 was made into the NATO AR standard.

[EzyStriderPS4 191]

Yaw!!! I'd like to see the bleeding from 5.45x39 mm buffed.
