I still see people talking trash about the Xbox development. Let's make this clear... AGAIN

3 problems with megaphones and speakers: audible range is too low and the user of a megaphone can not hear the reverb of his own words which breaks the immersion.

  • The other player is ~50 meters away and at that distance it was not possible to make out what he was saying. A real megaphone can be heard far beyond that distance, at least 200 meters. Currently it is not audible beyond shouting distance.

  • The same problem for the speakers in towns, they appear to have the same range.

  • When using a megaphone, the player who is using it can not hear the echo of his own voice and that is bad and should be fixed because there is no audio feedback for the using player.

Stress test problem

Posted: 15 Aug 2018 04:56 AM PDT

I didnt play dayz for some time. I came back to play it with a friend and we wanted to play stress test as we heard it has all new features. I downloaded it and when we enter there arent any 0.63 servers available and if enter any server it disconnects us immediately. I dont understand how this works. Should we play on normal dayz version or experimental or stress test?

DayZ Xbox Release?

Posted: 15 Aug 2018 08:14 AM PDT

When will the game preview be open to the public? I am dying here. I heard before gamescon but is that open to the public or are they handing out codes to streamers?

I know some of you are worried about missing features or content. Over the last few years, there have been many features designed, and.. yak yak yaketi yak - This is code for "How many features can we throw overboard so the game is playable on a gamepad without players noticing?".

I know some of you are worried about missing features or content. Over the last few years, there have been many features designed, and an insane amount of content created both externally and internally. Some of these things make DayZ better as a game and simulation. Some of them can be considered more or less an added flavor, or even clutter in the overall vision of what the game should be.

  • This is code for "How many features can we throw overboard so the game is playable on a gamepad without players noticing?".
  • My prediction, they will toss out 80% of basebuilding, precise item placement, throwing, weapon texture variations ( https://trello.com/c/tnpbecVI/45-procedural-color-changing-behind-the-scenes )
  • The dumbing down is a fact. They will not have two separate versions of the game with more complex gameplay for the PC. They will reduce everything down so it fits on a gamepad and it will be the incentive to cut features.
  • The other incentive is to get this game "completed". Because ever since Bohemia realized they made 100+ million $ (early in the development), the whole development became a cost cutting measure. They let a skeleton crew develop the game and avoided as much expense as they could.

After combining items that require a user action, the game automatically closes your inventory.

Posted: 15 Aug 2018 01:44 AM PDT

Whenever you do something involving two items from inside your inventory, the game - understandably - closes your inventory for you, ready for you to hold LMB and perform the action. Maybe it's just my muscle memory from 0.62, but I'm finding this incredibly frustrating, as I'm so used to hitting tab myself to close it that I end up cancelling the action more than 50% of the time and reopening my inventory.

Would changing that default behaviour make sense to anyone else, perhaps adding some kind of indicator on the inventory screen that you have a pending action, or should I just adapt or die?

Dayz 0.63 experimental - cannot open file

Posted: 15 Aug 2018 07:20 AM PDT

Hi, I'm an onld dayz player and I wanted to get back and play on experimental build.

I made a fresh new install of Dayz and switch to experimental build, but after launch I always get an error message like that: "cannot open file addon\..."

This is what I treid so far:

- update graphic card driver

- new installation

- fixing cache for corrupted files

- switch back to stable, launch it. this version works.

- tried to clear all documents/user files

NOTHING seems to fix m problem, so I really need your help. Does someone got this error too?

Many thanks all!

While using radios to communicate is fun, the extreme white noise that is supposed to simulate bad signals ruins it. Other games make it sound much more realistic. In dayz it is just white noise like on a tv. (stress test)

Radio in 0.63 stress test

Posted: 15 Aug 2018 05:08 AM PDT

Does anyone know how the radio works in 0.63? -Do you need to keep it in your hand to talk on the frequency or can you put it in your inventory and keep talking? - How do you switch between direct chat and radio talk? Do you still use <, > ? - Do the batteries go bad?

My Story of yesterday's stress test

Posted: 14 Aug 2018 09:08 AM PDT

I was in Vybor trying to get one of the new PA systems running for test-purpose. So I was looking for car batteries around the town when suddenly an armed player appeared next to me. It ended up in a short fight.

After I reloaded my M4 and collected the loot, my walky talky made some noise and a player asked if anyone can hear him. I responded and we had a small talk. I told him being around Vybor.

After a few minutes of a hopeless search to get these damn batteries I went on walking to another town.

The stranger responded again over walky talky. He now was in Vybor next to the gas station. I turned around to meet him, but I doubted that this will work well for me... or him in the end.

On my way back he recognized another player in the police station and got scary.

We finally met up near the gas station and I gave him my M4. Both armed, we run into Vybor looking for the player. And we met him near the green house where I was looking for the PA.

It went quite funny, because the third player used the megaphone to talk to us. He told us that he tried to plug the last Batterie in the PA, but it does not work. My new companion went with me in the green house to check, but we could not manage to get it work either. The other player went off silently in the meantime.

I asked my new buddy to travel to the NWAF. And so the journey went on. We reached the ATC and found on top lost equipment of some poor souls, that lost their battle some time ago. Good for us, so we could change our stuff to a new M4 and an AKM, both with scopes and a lot of ammunition. 10 minutes later we got a little bit bored and made some practise-shots on zombies and cows on the airfield. Shortly after we got an answer from far behind the ATC; ... shots!

We run back in the tower to overwatch the area when suddenly the bullets fly by real damn close.

Immidetly we dropped on the ground and tried to figure out the position of the attacker. After a few minutes 2 people rushed over the airfield. I screamed to my buddy where to look at and we both tried to snipe them. First one went down behind small debris. I lost sight of the second one but Louis told me that he watched him seeking cover on the same place where his dead buddy lies.

So we switched on the walky talky again, reloaded and I run down trying to flank the last guy. Louis stayed in touch with me and did some suppressive fire from the top of the ATC. Just when I got near, the last guy went up and rushed in some bushes. But with his scoped M4, Louis managed to hit him. I could see the guy now limbing and knew he would not come far from here anymore. I shot the final bullet and the battle was won. I told Louis over walky talky to come down and we both felt so satisfied.

None of us experienced a thing like this ever before. I love DayZ for moments like this.

tldr; met a stranger via walky talky, we both went to NWAF, had an intense fight.
