great interview here with some inklings at whats coming http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/1xqorm/chris_torchia_interview/

wonder if bikes are added soon :cool:

Hopefully bikes will be added sooner rather than later,

I know Rocket is wanting to do vehicles on a whole other level but hopefully bikes can be added quickly,

I miss flying down hills ringing my bell :(

All I read from that was:

DAYZ COMMUNITY: "So will this be implemented?"
DAYZ DEVS: "Yeah Sure why not"

AKA NO!

Must have faith!

Saying that Rocket's probably too busy adding in recipes for a sewing machine!

this could be great news hopefully they fully optimize multicore cpu optimization. that could yield some great gains in performance fps :cool:

Woo! Best thing they could add at this point.

I think it needs to be optimized espcially for dual card users, even though im using the arma 2 nvidia inspector profile it makes no difference compared to a single gpu even though the profile is working correctly.

I think getting CPUs to utilize multiple cores is much more important than the small number of multiple card users. Although both need doing, CPUs will help more people out. The games FPS is pretty shoddy, although that could just be serverside.
 
grrr. Looting the base near dichina with 2 other peeps in the server. open one of the bedroom doors a barracks and some guy is just sat there and shot me. I really need to believe he had just spawned in and not been sat there for ages waiting for someone to come along. Pretty sure I got him too so what was the point in that? I only had the same gear as he likely had.

Got the adrenalin pumping though.

Yeah I had that, only one other person on the server and he was in the same building dowstairs, he must have heard the footsteps cos he was sat there ready for me.

IMO if loot spawns were completely random this wouldnt happen, about 50% of servers are sat camping airfields
 
It just seemsed so lame and destined to failure. Would have been miles more fun if he had called out something creative along the lines of , I'm behind one of these doors so....

Even had I been an bandit, the net result (both dead) would have been the same. Or we could have had a laugh trading insults and using more creative tactics. This was pretty late at night as well so I can't even blame silly kiddies.

Was certainly exciting and I am back were mates will spawn in and geared up again within 90mins so it have me something to do.
 
well hopefully the gpu optimizations and cpu optimizations being done sort that soon.

maybe make a post on the dayz forums. may help get it noticed .
 
Posts on the forums won't alter the projects direction. Usually optimization is one of the last tasks done in game development. So unless it also offers reduced server resource use (a major issue with a game like this as shown by the 100 slot test servers) I'd be surprised if we see it anytime soon.
 
they mentioned about it other day so they are looking at it now. that is why i said mention it now while they doing it ;)

making the post others may add to it and it gets more attention :) . they do read and comment on a lot of the posts so its worth doing .

Dean only mentioned it now because someone asked for clarification, not because they are completely unaware of the issue and someone pointed it out. It isn't a five minute job either, it takes months and months along with the cooperation of teams from loads of different companies. This will just be the first step in many and ultimately server optimization is a much more important task at the moment. Without it, adding things like many more zombies and respawning loot will result in serious bandwidth limitations.

Honestly, I think its a waste of time, they are fully aware of the issues, both from internal testing and from player feedback through the correct channels, but after all it is your time to waste. :)

Still no patch notes for experimental build 0.36.115297, makes me wonder if there is another build coming very soon which might head to stable come Wednesday. Having played a few hours of 0.36.115297, this seems likely as there are quite a few bugs, one of the guys I was playing with couldn't attack even though it was bound correct. I spawned with my character spinning around on the spot as well, which was fun for about 30 seconds lol.

Indeed, the biggest pain with that fix is having to redo it every time you change driver. What GPUs do you have out of interest?
 
for me when i hit the big towns regardless of game settings on high or low i drop down to sub 15fps and thats with 1 or 2 7990's some of my mates with single gpu cards don't drop below 50 so i'm thinking it's much worse for people running crossfire/sli?
