What is being done about servers not found in the browser/launcher? I have two servers that I am paying for that are not found when searching with either the name or IP addresses. The servers are found using DZSA and are listed in the steam API. So there is nothing wrong with the servers. Clearly I'm not the only one having this problem. The population of my servers has dropped drastically because of this and I am disgusted by it. When can we expect to see a solution to this issue?

Mate I wish to gove you an idea about Steam. Through Steam you may find servers without any kind of problems. Then you might throw the launcher find necessary server and join there.

 

Or if you wish you may try to write your Steam server browser for dayz servers. Steam has a WebBorwser protocol that return JSON with servers data.

After 1.20 Hummer's automatic-trans. is broken, when you slow down it doesnt lower gears automaticaly and you have to manualy shift down, so lets say you ride 100km/h, slow down to 0 and when you want to move again it barely moves, cause its trying to start moving at 4th gear.

Also after 1.20 update, server logs are full of Enoch objects missing Geometry, etc etc, expecting Geometry 5 instead of (3), etc, etc

PC Stable 1.20 Update 2 - Version 1.20.155817 (Released on 22.02.2023)

If your community server was impacted by the duplicated objects through object spawner usage, we are highly recommending to wipe your server contents - or revert to a previous storage version - to assure game stability. Not following this procedure can result in severe instabilities.

FIXED

SERVER

KNOWN ISSUES

  • Spawning objects with _DE-suffix by Object Spawner can result in them being duplicated with every server restart - the team is testing a fix internally
  • The player character might glitch under the map when leaving vehicles - the team is looking into a fix
  • The gear box of the M1025 might desync when shifted up in drive mode
  • The 3rd person camera view might shake in close quarters

Shouldn't the launcher being borked beyond hope be mentioned among the Known Issues? Players who don't follow twitter, twitch etc probably have no idea. At the moment I'd say it is the single worst issue the game has, not even listing it among Known Issues gives the impression you just don't give a toss. "Official tab not affected, who cares huhuh go use DZSA like everyone else." Now I know that's not how you guys think - but that is the impression you are giving. Acknowledge the issue!

I just ignored the objects that are spawning through object spawner using cfgignorelist.xml it will remove the past iterations of the objects. You can do this for one restart, however if you are using objects from events it will remove the objects from those events for one restart. The fix I did for the _DE objects was changing the value of the storageCategory to 7 (there wasn't much documentation when I researched for this value, however seven worked for me) and reusing the same _DE classes to get the models etc and then spawning in the new class.

Absolutly agree. I think is the main bug for all the community servers at this moment.

It is absolutely shameful that the problem with the launcher/server browser isn't even on their list of issues "being looked into" in the "State of 1.20 Update" thread.

With the browser the way it is, community servers are not even able to be found.  How is that not a top priority or even a priority at all? Servers are losing players every day because of this.

People are paying money to host community servers that can't even be found because of this bug!!

How is this not even mentioned??

I've seen great community servers call it quits this week due to being delisted from the game. They at the least deserve the respect of being acknowledged in an attempt to fix the biggest bug in the game currently, not even being able to play it!!

Roll back the launcher change until you can figure out what broke!!!

1.19 had its own issues but at least servers were not delisted!

 

The only current work around to connect to the servers is knowing the IP address and direct connecting, going into your recent tab then favoriting the servers.

This might be helpful. Use it to find the IP Address of the server you're looking for, then use the method NateLapT mentioned to connect to it:

For years our community rented instances and servers and paid thousands and thousands of dollars.  Once I got fiber, I wised up and custom built a machine for 900 bucks that will last us for years, and thank GOD I did, because if I were a server owner right now renting a dedi or dayz instance, I would have the red ass 10X over.  The browser fail makes the piss poor excuse we have for vehicles look amazing.

It's still irritating, but at least my community is not out money because BI can't get their shit together.

Here is another nice search tool, which is also an interesting demonstration:

https://cactus.tools/dayz/servers

Try searching for All and see how quickly it gives a list of every single server. Or, you can type in a server name and it will find it instantly.

Has there any discussion by the devs about allowing zombies kill players in a future patch? At the moment they're kinda useless in the game. At best they're a mild annoyance, when they should be the player's primary antagonist.

I've never understood why the devs chose to nerf the zeds in the first place. But it would be great to have that particular decision reversed and make the zeds an actual threat again.

100% agree, I hate that change. It was made only to appease whinging pvp players who kept moaning they were being killed by zombies when unconned in firefights. Instead of fixing it so zeds go for the shooter instead of his unmoving victim, the devs did this... First and foremost caving to the loud crowd who only play DayZ for guns and glory is weak, and the action that was taken was truly the easy way out. Please guys, make an effort revert this change this year and rework how zombies prioritise targets instead.

OR: Simply make them only hit players unconned after hit by an infected. Damage source is logged so that would definitely be possible. Will give you a chance to escape if shot and/or passing out from blood loss.

Edit: By the way - Liven's PvZMod Customisable Zombies can enable it again. That guy's mod has features that can make zombies close to what they should be in this game.

You are partly correct here, but the problem was much less about zeds ignoring the shooter than it was about fights where players would trade (not 1:1 in kills, but 1 killed and 1 unconscious) the infected would run over and finish the uncon guy, meaning that no one would win the fight, this made for extremely lame PvP and I'm glad they fixed it, but I agree the current solution isn't great.

"Simply make them only hit players unconned after hit by an infected. Damage source is logged so that would definitely be possible."
I agree with you, this is the ideal solution, keeps the infected deadly in PvE-only scenarios while eliminating the possibility for them to create unsatisfying PvP encounters.

Personally I don't really mind if the infected change their minds and come after you, even if they've originally targeted another player. They're supposed to be infected people and pretty mindless in their motivations. It can be a little annoying, but it also can make things a bit more dangerous too.

However, nerfing them was the absolute worst thing that the devs have done to the game. And if the reason was really just to placate noisy PvP idiots, then that makes it even worse TBH. I'd very much like to see this silly idea reverted back to the way things were. Players SHOULD have to be wary about the zeds and they SHOULD have to think twice before shooting their weapon.

I agree that the huge nerf to zombies is less than ideal.   I wish that they would finally settle down and balance the game.   We've seen two fundamental changes to the game in the last two updates in the way of inertia and weight.  Things that are crucial to first person shooters.  It's like alpha phase tho, they have to nerf zeds because otherwise people will constantly die to absurd stuff.

Responding to this:

"
The 3rd person camera zooms in when an obstacle is in front of the camera
"

This zoom issue bothers a lot. The zoom bothers a lot, but a lot. Please drop this proposal.
The third-person view is for players who like that visual breadth. The other player who doesn't want to be at a disadvantage, look for a first person server.

Interesting: there was a hefty discussion between pro/contra 3pp and how it could be nerfed/modified back in 2014 here in this forum. (I digged a bit in the archives) And now it seems that BI is trying to solve these 9 year old "problems" with 3pp and sell it to us as a brand new invention and genius solution to the POW(peek-over-wall) issue. But in fact, they massively disrupted the whole game experience for some people (like me) with their actual changes (and they are maybe trying to 'kill' 3pp through the back door at all because just abandon it would be suicide. But that's conspiracy theory) anyways, The actual changes are causing several problems on console(PS5) for example with: fps-drops, lame rendering, lack of overview and orientation in close quarters and probably in worst case a sort of motion sickness from the rapid and harsh camera shifts and the mentioned points above. I would switch to an classic-3pp server ASAP if possible but it is what it is: sad! That leads to my Question now: can i completely disable the 3pp-nerf (not only the zoom) on a community server and if yes: do you know a good(vanilla) with old 3pp on Playstation ???

Suggestion: Change the ADS while prone'd logic to maintain your previous aiming angle. Its kinda silly how it always levels with the angle of the floor, so you aim at the sky or floor when at the slightest incline

Btw. In my opinion, one of the reasons why they made the infected less dangerous/not deadly anymore were the often and frequent server connection problems back in 2020/21 (on Ps4).  I remember that I created my first alt acc. as a back up then. Because I hate nothing more than dying through a game issue/bug. And that happens several times: "no server response since x seconds" during a fight was a 101% death call...

Indeed. Sniping from a prone position is basically only possible from a level floor because of this.
