Pyongo Bongo 180 Posted March 23, 2022 This is the most excited i have been for any game/update release in years. I especially love the crazy melee weapons and the lightable broom. Details like that are not needed in the slightest but they are what makes a game amazing. 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parazight 1594 Posted March 23, 2022 Will there be server/character wipes? Is this a question that can only be answered with Twitter? It’s asked with the release of every single experimental update, on day one. How can the devs not know the answer to this already? Why not attach this info to the changelog? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe they said in the "roadmap" that 1.17 would be the first wipe of the official hives this year, so it has been confirmed already. I might be mistaken, but that's how I remember it. Edit: Ah, what they said in the 2022 roadmap was "More likely than not, Update 1.17 will serve as the first wipe of the year." so yeah not 100% confirmed yet.

pab-ababc74b501bd1bc 2 Posted March 23, 2022 ''Sensitivity settings is now exponential instead of linear'' What is this? Please tell me you didn't just force mouse acceleration into the mouse sensitivity? This is refering to the controller sensitivity right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TAMW 57 Posted March 23, 2022 Ok. Sumrak, and dear Dayz dev team. For fuck sake. It is not god damn Niznohe that needs rework on Chernarus. It is the NORTH WEST AIRFIELD that needs rework. The "new nwaf" that came with .63 is utter garbage. It is destroyed. There is mounds, sheds, pipes, trees, bushes and trash fucking everywhere. It barely even resembles an airfield. Like what the hell? For god damn almost 4 years now.. The pvp at that place now, and the last 4 years, are some dudes camping the top of a building or barracks with snipers, or a lot more common you run smack into a barrel of full auto at 1 or 2 meters, because you can't see shit there now. There can literally be 15 people at NWAF at the same time and no-one is the wiser. It's a piss poor design. It needs the majority of the "arma 3" barracks REMOVED from the south end. They are too big and just leads to window peek pvp. It needs all the stupid mounds and shit in the middle and fuel mounds along the north stretch of the airfield REMOVED. Put back some old classic big hangars. The forrest around the tents needs thinning. Please, PLEASE change it to more like it used to be, the NWAF is one of the most iconic locations of chernarus since Dayz Mod. It used to be an epic PVP arena. Of all the renditions of NWAF the 0.62 version was the absolute peak design. Bar none. 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pab-ababc74b501bd1bc 2 Posted March 23, 2022 I really hope they didnt just force mouse acceleration into the mouse.This is the first thing people turn off when playing fps games because it is absolutely detrimental to accuracy and muscle memory.We need some clarification on this ''exponential'' thing does it apply on the mouse or only on the controller? Also why did u remove the sensitivity values from the config? That way people could fine tune the sensitivity to their preference and didnt have to rely on the in game bar which had(and still has) big steps. Old was mouseSensitivityX= mouseSensitivityY= and now it could go like cameraSensitivityX= , cameraSensitivityY= and aimingSensitivityX= , aimingSensitivityY= . Why remove these values all2gether and force people on using the in game inaccurate bar?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scoo1 31 Posted March 23, 2022 "Sensitivity settings is now exponential instead of linear" I think this is related to the slider in settings, not your movement with mouse. -> no mouse acceleration, but larger adjustment range Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
