How about they stop doing the easy 10 min fixes, use that 10 mins working towards big more needed fixes to make the game more stable and bug free. All those 10 min fixes add up you know. Headlamp is not one of them.... Mouse springs to mind as one, use those extra 10 mins each time to work on that. Maybe it would have been done and out by now, just saying.

Also drop the Alpha pre-order card this is about the direction it is going, I have pretty much most of the big Alpha early axxs games so I know the score, but they all develop at a decent rate and fix the bugs in hand first hence why you never see me moaning about how rubbish things are moving in those other threads. This one is just a joke atm, no I don't want to play a fully featured game I want to see them fix the issues the game has first before introducing new items and easy fixes to make what they have more stable and bug free.

10 minute fix :confused: if you read what rocket said it needs re animating for the acceleration to be removed . nothing is ten minute fix.

look at the list that has been done since last week! then realize you have to create/make code each one of those fixes and solve previous bugs then you have to test them aswell.

28 new items were done, 38 bugs were fixed in one week !

remember they have a small dev team also .

rusts last patch which took one week 4 fixes !

people need to understand how it works, look at the official forums to see whats actually happening and not just making stuff up. then you wont get irritated as most of the things you want to know about are on there.

Please read what I actually said and please tell me where I said mouse was a 10 min fix? Oh no you must have skimmed again when the fan boy came out :)

10 min was a off the cuff remark made to spoffles when he was saying stuff like headlamp was a quick easy fix so they got it out of the way. I then said instead of doing all these 10 min fixes again 10 mins is not what I am saying it takes LOL then they should STOP all those easy QUICK fixes and use all that time to fix the mouse and other bugs.

Please DG read what people say before you post, I know you go all red and get hot when people do not like SA and that is fine m8 but before you get all cross and start shaking just read what people post.

Cheers m8

Please keep the chat to SA only m8, don't want to have to report you for it like you do to everyone else when A3 gets talked about.

I'd be willing to bet that the guys doing all the small balance tweaks and adding in extra items etc. are not the same ones that are working on the larger and more complex issues.

why come in just post this every time there's a update ?

there's been like 6 patches in four weeks !

now go get all those patches add them together what they fixed and added then tell me any arma 3 mod has done that or dayz the mod or rust in the last month = they havent ! :p

if you don't like it stay playing arma 3 or epoch like goon. just ******* on every post is boring we got past this stupidness now you start it again.

this will be better than the mod , arma 3 breaking point and all of them. if you give it chance.

Yes but will it be too late by then!

The devs haven't even mentioned about cars and when we're likely to see that update. He's hoping the fact that you can salvage and retro fit cars will be the pinnacle point for the game. Yeah could be fun for like a week or so, then what? Someone steals the car because you have no safe base.

I'm more concerned with the fact nothing has been mentioned about base building.

As I've said (and don't even attempt to say, "go back and play Epoch then") Epoch building is fantastic, however like all games there will be a point where you get bored. Once you've built your epic base, once you've managed to get all the gold you need, once you've got all the kit and once your PvP skills are l33t... what then.... What is SA going to bring that's different that hasn't already been done.

Yes there's more customizations of guns, yeah the clothing and personalization options are brilliant... Not to mention how good Chernarus + looks!

But honestly, the question I think everyone is looking for is "How is this gaming going to be better that other similar games, or more to the point how is it going to keep people playing?"

This sort of stuff makes you seem like you think you know more about games development that you really do.

That, and you should know full well that there are multiple branches. What gets pushed to stable isn't the extent of everything they've worked on, it's what they've worked on that is deemed stable.

You have literally no idea what they're doing in the developer builds, but it's being developed full time so it's not going to be a case of menial fixes and that's it. The serious stuff takes time to develop, and fixes and further development has to be done in an order to be able to keep on top of it.

goon i posted links which you haven't even read in this thread confirming when base building and vehicles will be in :p your too busy hating and not reading ! he did a ask anything on Reddit and i posted the link on here so all those who like to rant could see some of the big features coming.

vehicles and base building will be in within 6 months ! as said read articles or go on the dayz forums which i know you go on as i seen your last ranting thread on there :D . all the details are already on there to read and be learnt about.

The problem was that you said bases and vehicles were being avoided when it was brought up, which seemingly isn't the case.

This is part of the problem with this, a lot of people are saying things that aren't much more than made up because they've made assumptions, or fancy themselves are games developers, so are making incorrect assumptions about what actually goes in to making a game.
 
i think someone has posted this, but I saw a tweet by Rocket or someone, anyway they have people working on new content and another set on fixes etc

So fixes are not affected by new content as such, as the resource is already there... so enjoy the new content, because the more the better... and just take fixes as they come... if gameplay or something is that affected for you, report it (or not if you cba) and wait for the fix.

No point banging on about it - it is what it is; they are fixing stuff and they are adding stuff.... to me that is progress and the game has come along way since it first launched as an alpha.
 
This thread is great. I honestly love it DG still trying to pretend hes in the know, You had your big chance mate, Took 7 release date guesses and failed on everyone of them. When it finally came to the release day and time everyone but you knew about it.:D

I'm greatful you post info from all the other sites like Reddit, Twitter, the official forums etc. But just admit your just passing on second hand info thats available to anyone. Instead of acting like you got some inside info. Its pathetic.
The haters all whinging aswell, brilliant. I don't mean people like goon and witcher either there clearly fans who want the game to do well. Its the ones who think its there duty to come in here and tell everyone the games crap.
The thread was great for a week, then DG returned and its turned into this again. As he cant accept other people can have an opinion that doesn't match his own.

Try our Hardcore server;

Address: 185.16.84.80 Port: 2602

Once you've been on it, it should appear in your History & you can add it as a favourite for easy connection.

If servers aren't appearing I'd bet it's an issue with the mass amount of data packets that the server list pulls to display all the servers and maybe your router is blocking them?

Temporarily try putting your router into DMZ (very briefly to test) and see if it refreshes the server list correctly?


Also, found this little snippet which seemed to help opening up the correct port;

I don't know the default ports for DayZ, ArmA uses 2302, 2304, 2305 by default so I am going to assume they are the same . Please add -port=25007 into your DayZ launch options on one of the PC's. Right click on DayZ > General > Set launch options. The number doesn't really matter as long as it's different from the other computers which will use 2302, 2304, 2305 by default (assuming DayZ uses the same as ArmA 2/ArmA 3

Try and figure out where you are.

http://dayzdb.com/map/chernarusplus

Then on that map look for the water pumps in towns and villages.

go to low pop server while learning basics.

most important is water then food. go to water pumps which are in all big towns and city , villages. or use lakes ponds streams.

drink about twenty times or until it says you are completely full or stuffed. this is what most do wrong. if you do that your good for one or two hrs then.

same with food eat until stuffed not just to take off im hungry again will last 1 hr minimum then until need to eat. food located all over in many houses and super markets. tins of tuna can be missed easily if you don't search thoroughly. you also need something to open tinned food. any sharp instrument will do it though but if not can opener you lose a percentage of food opened.
