Nah more people doesn't mean faster. But they are adding more people according to Rocket, just that it takes time to get the new people into doing the things they need.

Already Nav mesh is being handled by one of the recently acquired studio for DayZ. New engine is also being worked on by another group. I think once they hit their targets we can see quite big updates over time.

Found all the parts for an AKM + drum mag. So satisfying.

I MISS YOU GUYS!!!! I WANT TO KILL BAMBI!

Tonight will play a few hours. Since most of us are now new spawns since last night, we should team up near one of the towns.

Wow, finally saw this forum for DayZ. Been bored playing alone, repeating the same thing. Loot, eat, run. And I'm damn lost in the woods as well.

Anyway, is it alright if I joined the club? Kinda need some mates playing with me.

Hello, yeah a few of us still play occasionally. I play often enough.

Today got latest patch to stable. Expect quite a few new stuff including;

Basic ragdoll physics
Tents
Re-spawning loot
New guns
New clothes
Bandana face mask
etc.

Nice. I'll add you on Steam then.
Was playing out just now, searching out for this new stuff where suddenly this random guy just shoots me without saying anything. Totally point blank range. At least talk to me a little before killing me -.-

Basically, my char was reset. So I'm hoping for someone to walk around Chernarus with me.

really no idea what the fun of this game....look boring like hell.....and not fun as STALKER

Whoa what did I miss! It's been months man! I miss us going to Balota in a group of 10 and above.

Me and Hammie taking out um.. 8 people and more I think? Our infamous last stand.

Then remember when we blew up the fckin Fuel station? that was funny lool. Oh god, I miss those times

I think the video is still in this thread for the exploding station one. hahahaha

Nowadays a lot of stuff added. I think one of the core missing stuff is vehicles.

Already implemented tents for persistent storage and re-spawning loot in the latest update.

What, all this time still no vehicles? and I thought they disabled the persistent storage for the time being?

Ahh yes, persistent storage disabled for now.

But with respawning loot, going into airfields with open doors will still get loot.

Do explain more about the loot respawn

Based on global loot on the server. A little bit broken and can be exploited I think. I believe weapon spawns are limited by global economy but not bullets or other military gear.

Based on picking up loot on one building will spawn loot in another building. Not sure if they fixed the timing but it was broken in Exp due to persistent items. Which is the reason why it is disabled in Stable.

Previously in EXP, unpopular loot will stay in server due to persistency and loot respawn keeps adding items to the building until it's full of trash. Since the building like a shed can only spawn a certain amount of items from the loot table, the same loot keep getting spawn in the same shed as you loot other buildings in the same area. And the fact that they did not restart the EXP servers, the amount of loot re-spawn + persistent loot meant a lot of building were basically flooded with useless crap.

I think they will add sort of timer or increase the grid size where the loot re-spawn works. Too small a grid can quickly fill up a small town over and over if you pick 2 separate buildings in a small town. But a bigger grid can prevent that and you can actually empty a town loot until the timer for re-spawn kicks in.

So far in Stable, I haven't really looted much since already geared but I have been to a few servers where military buildings were already looted (doors open) but still can find like AKM mags, bullets, vest which were not taken. I assumed it all re-spawned when other buildings were looted.

Oh ok. Btw, where do people go for firefight nowadays?
Long ago it was at either Balota or Elektro. Did they shifted to the NW Airfield? or the NE Airfield & Svetlo?

cant find any hotspot yet.. so far balota killed a few people... parked my character there

I see. Might join you someday. Still haven't lose your eagle senses?

i want to join.. i just started today. how can i join you guys?

add me johnkia

I've been playing and my comment is... boring.
everyone is now going to the eastern side of the map since most spawns are there.

Hotzone is definitely the NWAF now since it's closer to the eastern spawn.

The western side of the map like Balota and stuff is quieter than usual. No more bullets flying near Elektro, I can just sit and afk in the middle of the town. Usually it's tactical looters there at Balota and aggressive as well.

Also can't believe they changed the NE airfield.
4 months is sure one hella of a long time o_o

Managed to get my hands on the AK101, @#$% the recoil man. Still couldn't find any Mp5-k but I found some mags. Also still haven't come across any hand grenade or flashbang. I really wanna use it on ***** campers camping in the prison

Mosin and SKS is common now, and surprisingly LRS is umm... uncommon? I always find them but decided not to loot.

Also, I heard M4 is rarer now? I killed a dude but I didn't loot the M4 lol.
