These sound changes tells me that once again its all about making things as obnoxious as humanly possible. I truly don't understand why being stealthy is not recognized as a way to play this game. When dealing against groups the only chance to survive is either mix perfectly within their interactions or do absolutely nothing and pray that character won't randomly start to play its built-in and passive soundboard. Jumping, moving, throwing punches or basic interaction with items all produce horrendous and immersion breaking sound effects and grunts, that could be heard through walls from really far away. Opening doors for example should be alerting to vicinity (npcs as well) but only if said opening was rushed. Yet no option to do it slowly and steady - when all it takes is making animation progressive; the longer one holds a button on door's activator the longer and quiter the process is. Right now game is not authentic - its more and more fps, fast & furious type of gameplay is encouraged.

Please consider this as well that climbing a steep mountain shouldn't be as easy. Like Arma 3, the stamina level decreases when climbing a steep slope. Thanks.

Well it's huge patch to be honest. I didn't seen such a huge chagelog quite long time.

I like it. Also can't await when it will be released 🙂

Made an account just to ask this but, while you guys are doing it for a bunch of other things can we get a hiddenSelection for camonets please?

I'm sure the modding community would appreciate being able to make cam nets for variable terrain within a map without changing every cam net that's been placed, especially since sea level and high altitude terrain on Sakhal is so different.

Hi, could you please create a ticket for it in feedback tracker here: https://feedback.bistudio.com/? If the demand will be high, it might be considered in the future 🙂

Surprised to see that there's nobody talking about this.

Isn't stealth important in a hardcore survival game? Why must everyone within 20 meters hear my character grunt as I climb over a 60 cm tall fence?

u can still be stealthy. just crouch walk without sprinting.

its a good change, the audio was clearly unbalanced. u could hear stomach grumbling from further away than people running around.

Great update. I absolutely love every single sound effect and animation you add, it adds so much to the game! 🙂

Except for the teeth rattleing and dry mouth noises maybe xD

I don't approve of the new container locks though. What makes DayZ great is the sandbox, freedom and authenticity. It's just inauthentic/not believable that these thin sheet metal containers can only be opened with a key. We can break down metal base walls with our hands, but THIS sheet metal can't be cracked, not even with C4.

And it doesn't feel free or authentic for the whole server to be artificially funneled to the only point on the whole map where the keys spawn, it's simply repetetive. Everyone is going to be always doing the same thing on every playthrough, going to the boat. For what reason? It contains the only way to open randomly scattered loot boxes made out of thin sheet metal, but which are indestructible? For me personally this is too much of a stretch from realism for no benefit. Yes there will be player interaction at the boat and people will have something to do searching for the containers, but this can be done without basing it on indestructable sheet metal.

Actually I just thought about it, is there anything inside the containers which forces you to seek them out? It's not that bad if the loot inside is not only accessible in there.

I did like the idea of the random event containers beforehand, that the western guns were only in there. Very authentic way to add setting-un-fitting items and to make it worth it to go all over the map. Because I can believe that something like that may happen IRL and it doesn't seem forced at all, because compareably useful loot can be found in other places in other ways.

explosives being an option to open locked crates would be a cool way to have an alternative risk reward

you can blow them open but it makes alot of noise and everyone knows that your looting crates, or go get the key and maintain stealth

The latest DayZ update is fantastic! The new features and improvements bring fresh excitement to the game, enhancing both survival mechanics and overall gameplay. Performance has noticeably improved, and the added content makes exploring even more rewarding. A big thumbs up to the devs for keeping the game engaging and immersive!

I really hope that in 2025 they will finally think about multi-threading for processors and support for dx12 and other api and then I will not need the rest of the updates, I agree that updates come out every six months just make them grandiose and thoughtful please! I play since Arma 2 dayz mod (non steam) and sometimes I am very ashamed of you, hear the community please!
