Changed: Spawning of high-value items across dynamic events, contaminated areas, and T4 areas

Does this means that high tier loot spawns in dynamic zones also?

[Getsome 34]

I don't believe so... it is a little miss leading the way they've written it, it probably should say... "Not including dynamic contaminated areas"

I don't remember seeing neither in previous patch notes nor playing experimental that new magically loot spawns in dynamic events. Is it a typo? If that's a new thing, I find it wrong, but that's just my feedback. Also, should have been tested in experimental first.

I disagree, if they incresead the up time of this zones, we should have an incentive to explore it or else these dynamic zones are completly useless.

ETA for steam file updates?

I don't see what kind of incentive could be added that wouldnt be really strange like good lootl.

Yes they are useless to the player but i like that randomly a really loud gas explosion happens that will make you and anyone nearby puke blood and die, it is very cool and atmospheric (no joke).

New animal carcasses (can be picked up):

Hare

Hare leg and pelt

 

Does this mean rabbits are spawning in the world now ?

They don't. Which is a shame, since the last animal that was added was the bear back in 2019. Also because they are supposed to still add multiple animals 

[Roviar 0]

Are contamination zones in Livonia as well? I may have missed it in the patch notes but I'd like to be sure.

 

[Riddick_2K 174]

Beautiful.
If now the NVGs are only in perpetually gassed areas, I won't find them anymore and will start jump servers for the night again.
Now, with the gas bombings, I won't waste my time risking death trying to escape, I'll start jump servers for that too ...
It is becoming a nasty "game of war" and continuous "server jump" ...
Under these conditions I don't know if I will play this game again which gets worse with each new patch. At this point a "real" and "good" war game like Batlefield is better where you don't just have to look for things like a fool, and after crediting your weapons remain ... and fight against enemies on equal terms ... and while we're at it, you not only have a night vision device, but also an infrared, which is much better ... if the main business is just "kill the next" and NOT "survive the pandemic".

NVGs spawn at heli crashes now only. Helis are extremely easy to find with the new crash sound and smoke. Gas bombed areas are very small. Running out is much! less risky then trying to log out.

You should really work on your habit to run away, if you see a problem at the horizon 😉

You complain about pew pew in several topics and then you claim that BF is better because you don't have to look for gear. If you want to spawn fully geared you certainly can on some modded server, but then maybe better stick to BF.

Well if you like abusing game mechanics, you might as well jump servers when somebody shoots you 😃

I really don't get your hatred for 1.14... it's a good patch.
If you want pew pew pew DayZ just like Battlefield, there are lot's and lot's of modded servers just for that. Maybe survival and PvE (E - Enviroment) isn't for you.

Helicopter crash-sites now emit sounds upon spawn in the surrounding area

I like this allot! Years ago we wrote about it in a suggestion thread. Other suggestions about more immersive dynamic events:

-if your radio is active, you're able to hear a emergency call of the heli crew to their base 

Would really immersive and Radios would be a lot more useful!

- I would love to see a helicopter in the sky smoking and going down a few kilometers away and the sound of 🚁 in DayZ - I miss it so much!

I have not heard of the gas that causes bleeding that can be cured with a bandage.

It can't really be cured... it's just the way the game works. You keep getting cut's so long as you are in the gas without proper protection.

Gunshot wound? just bandage it up... we should stop questioning some game mechanics, it's obvious it will lack a certain of realistic depth of recovery.
