Hello Survivors!

The second Platform Update of DayZ is out on Steam (both the game update and server files update). Along with many quality of live improvements, fixes and tweaks, it reintroduces two .308 caliber weapons and what's arguably the most luxurious transport option the post-apocalyptic Chernarus offers: the mighty Olga 24 sedan.

While the 1.02 update does not have a strict theme, a lot of work has been done to streamline the inventory design and functionality (yes, you can move with your inventory open again!). The game design team also put emphasis on promoting stealth gameplay when dealing with the infected, and also went through a couple of iterations on the night time experience. Get all the details and full patchnotes below!

u/eugenharton doesn’t read any of this

I wonder if they're going to automatically be shipped to those who purchased the Supporter edition and are entitled to it, per the description of the supporter edition?

Unfortunately, despite the fact that /u/eugenharton is pretty competent as far as development goes, I have very little hope that he will ever provide a straight answer on this.

As far as I'm aware though, the answer is either "two" or "three", depending on whether or not Martin Melicharek is still involved with DayZ.

I agree. It's easy to forget how much there is in the game, and how difficult to show it all in any detail for a trailer. The trailer lacks polish, but as you said it's pretty honest.

What they have done, and for a large multiplayer server in real time, especially with persistence, is amazing to me. There's a lot to celebrate, but the community (especially here) is just too jaded to do that, ever. Some of us do appreciate the team's work and hope they know that /u/RaptorM60.

So you share offices with the Vigor team? I remember one of you saying that the Vigor team the last trailer, the cinematic one. Unless by both trailers you mean both launch trailers.

This trailer really feels like they asked the dev team to make a trailer rather than asking a completely unrelated PR team to make one. It might not be as slick as the cinematic one, but it's honest, and proud of the good things that are actually in the game right now. Great work, guys!

Then why haven't we seen any substantial progress outside of basic things like guns and a car? All the big fixes have been minor, and we still haven't seen any sort of progression on missing core features. Also ceasing to do status reports doesn't look great

Also, 3 updates? You mean 2 right? Because the first patch was literally just a few small fixes. Nothing new at all.

Originally posted by ficarra1002

You guys can't just keep saying things will get better without showing substantial progress. I somewhat believed you when you said similar stuff 4 months ago, but since then you guys have nothing worthwhile to show for it so I'm starting to have my doubts.

but we wouldn't be able to have cars and no desync potential on old technology.

Gonna have to show us it's possible on the new technology before we believe you. Because currently, you sacrificed the content for nothing, or something arguably less stable.

So, 80*8=640 PH are expended on DayZ right now daily to produce what exactly?

You seriously expect anyone to believe that at this point? Come clean already, guy!

lol 2 of those "patches" were the size of hotfixes and the third introduced weapons we've had since 2014 to patch .63, where you had them removed prior to your "1.0" release nearly 4 months ago.

So, thanks? I guess.

At this point I start to question if the 'long term' plans for dayz have changed but they can't bring themselves to tell us becuse there would be an outcry. Minimal communication, first patch 3 months into the year, no roadmap. Somethings going on, and the only way for them to change our minds is to communicate with us.
