DayZ Dev Tracker

You're not able to reproduce it in house because you need people actually playing the game. These are player caused crashes. I've got a dev server and a prod server. Both identical right now. My dev box I forgot to shut down yesterday and has been up running for 18 hrs. The tent I placed yesterday to test forced terminations is still where I left it, obviously because the server never crashed in the 18 hours.

My prod server that actually has players on it, has crashed like 3 times in those 18 hrs. At some point my buddies barrel disappeared. But just one. His other one that was right next to it is was still there.

Also before I modded my servers, I had placed 3 tents and went to loot more. Crash happened. Worked my way back to the tents and 1 had vanished. Day or so later, they were all gone.

Also just last week I spawned in a bunch of stuff to build a few towers and a big compound. It last like 3 days. Then vanished.

Doesn't this just mean "no because we don't have time"?

I read it on the DayZ forums a while back. I'm not sifting through all that again to find it for you. Maybe it has something to do with DayZ not being a UWP. I don't know. Maybe u/RaptorM60 could shed some more light on it.

The fact that they did this rather quietly without major announcements

And the fact that they disabled the like/dislike on the Youtube video DayZ BETA Update Dev Log

I think that's rather telling... doesn't raise much hope

But the thing is, having a clear release deadline on your ass (pardon my french) accounts for something. You know that the year is your deadline, and so you make sure to get the most out of a situation you have.

f**k you (pardon my french) it's your own self imposed deadline. You don't get to make an arbitrary deadline and then throw your hands up and claim there is nothing you could do about it.

Interesting, thanks for chiming in! This is all based on information I have gathered from comments during previous discussions like this, so it's not something I made up myself. Seems that the only thing that was directly "wrong" though was that I thought there were investors aswell.

Even Hicks have been carefully but obviously hinted that the DayZ developers do not want to release this year, but that it is the Bohemia management that is pushing them to release this year, no matter what state the game is in. More and more content is already being pushed back to a late date, but you will still release 1.0 this year.

Can you confirm whether or not most of the DayZ developers agree with releasing the game this year, with all the content that is missing? Again, the way current and previous DayZ developers responds to questions like this during interviews, they all seem super uncomfortable. Most devs are usually super happy and looking forward to releasing their game, t...
