Dear survivors, community managers and devs,

As we all know "DayZ is an unforgiving, authentic...." and that is why we chose and love it.

Introducing ANY directional hit markers / indicators when being hit will change our experience and gameplay for all of us playing on servers which have "UI indicator when being hit" enabled (even if players could disabled it) as indicators will give immediate hint from which direction shot came (no matter of on screen size and time).

Attacked player will cover / hide immediately against shot direction what will result in a long and short distance ambushes / encounters being less effective for ambushing side as survivors will not look around or use weapon sounds (core game mechanic) to pin shot direction. Using gun sound to pin shot direction takes little time and introduces mistake factor (seen it and did it) what gives an advantage for shooter. With directional hit markers that factor will not be an advantage anymore. 

It can take two shots to know shooter position but with directional hit markers will only take one and it will not matter anymore if suppressed or not weapon has been used. Another core element of the game, use of suppressed weapons and suppressors will be affected.

PLEASE  get rid of hit markers ! This is hard-core survival. Not cod..

[Vladyslav13 2]

We all love the game, but please remove the hit markers. It's just awful that you entered them.

[Roscorabbit 16]

Why the hit markers. It's like playing cod or battlefield now, not in keeping with the hardcore style of the game at all in my opinion. 💩👎.

Also in the write up for the update you talk about "as part of ongoing efforts to support a more immersive experience" then go on to talk about hit markers 🤦.

Maybe they could add wheel chair zombies and non binary zombies while there at it🙄.

3,961,345,487 males as of 31 December 2020

3,889,818,369 females as of 31 December 2020

Overall, of the 7,091,500,000 people in the world, approximately 131,800,000 or 1.85% require a wheelchair

If we add asshat zombies it would overlap all demographics and we'd be left with mostly douche zombies. So it's already pretty realistic already. 🤣

Hey man can you guys fix the hunger system on official servers already? It's ridiculous, I manage to get like 6 pears, prunes, a few peeled potatoes and my character still dies of hunger, traveling from Berenzino to Gorka. 

Not sure if someone is fucking with my gameplay or if you guys just really want people to buy private servers to increase the food loot amount. It's ridiculous in a real life situation someone would be able to travel such a distance eating way

less food.  Additionally mushrooms don't even spawn in forests anymore unless they're rotten, berries are no longer a thing, and fishing is an option but even then would I need to stack a bunch of fish in my backpack and eat every 10 mins?

Been playing since early alpha and it seems like you guys aren't putting in any effort anymore. But kudos on adding the stealth melee on zombies though, please make this more like project Zomboid, thank you.

They’ve made hunger even easier to survive now at lower levels. It just requires more constant effort to maintain at higher levels now. It’s in the patch notes. 

Honestly it sounds like you just don’t know what you’re doing. You’ve been playing since early Alpha and you’re still struggling with this? Yeesh. Stuff like fruit and mushrooms has always provided very minimal calories. If you’re running full speed across the map, ignoring your warmth levels, and only eating small bits of fruit, yeah, your hunger is never gonna stay full and you’re going to struggle. 
 

The hunger system is fine where it is.

"Server owners are receiving additional tools to manage their servers without the need for directly modifying game files through the addition of server-side gameplay settings." OK so how do we access this on PC?

[thepoey 193]

With the huge influx of players the game has received in the last two months, I really hope that overall server performance improves dramatically in 2022, above all else. This is the only way to help ensure that this new crop of players sticks with the game for the foreseeable future. Dying senseless deaths to cars skyrocketing, desync, or any other of the numerous issues caused by massive dips in server performance is just going to drive away all a large portion of new players, and they will not come back. This definitely happened on Xbox when the game first launched, and I hope it doesn't happen again, because the population is in the best state on both console and PC it has ever been in.
