What are you guys doing to... fix your game?

Seriously, tell us what you guys are doing. There is a huge gap in communication between updates. The community is losing faith in Daybreak. Many feel like you guys don't really give a shit about the game or the community. Tell us about progress, setbacks, ideas... It is clear that behind all the angry messages directed at you or your team, there are people who love this game. So tell us what you are doing and tell us in a clear way. I shouldn't have to watch Community Outbreak and hope that someone says something useful.

Check out https://playrust.com/ for a good example of communication. There are YEARS of WEEKLY devblogs featuring bug fixes, concept art, reasons for doing things..

Thanks for doing these Q&As, they're a good start but we need more.

Been in the files for a while, it's part of an achievement.

not currently in the game should be coming in an update soon, the latest update on test added it into the models text file. So it should be coming out soon (most likely next major content update) http://i.imgur.com/SXcjJjs.png

Edit: full models.txt for anyone interested

July 25th Edit: There has been no official statement from Daybreak on the expected release date of the Combat Update. They have stated that there will be no Producer's Letter this week. This post will be updated daily or as updates come in. Carto on the overuse of the word soon: https://tinyurl.com/yd52un2k

Slugs seem like a bad idea, what do they do to helmet, just OHK like a close range sniper? I've been saying armor is what fucks the shotgun over, ignoring huge bugs like shots not actually firing or server-related reload shit.

The shotgun has really bad damage fall off already, and glancing shots don't even take off makeshift. If you miss a shotgun shot, well your fucked because he is hipfiring his ass off and hit you in the toe for 25 damage. Look at this https://sendvid.com/guv05ctw Glancing didn't take off laminated, even if most of the shots hit. Second shot also glancing took off laminated but he was still very health. Meanwhile he is moving so fucking fast while hipfiring. Who fucking cares if you miss 10 shots, if you mash a whole magazine you just need to hit 5 shots or 2 lucky ones.

I would say laminateds are worth taking out of the game before the shotgun, or at the VERY least moving them to the AR airdrop crate only. Then you can swap those big football pad plated skins to makeshift so people still can rock a skin. In general I would prefer armor to only work where it actually is, and arms/legs take less damage. Right now laminateds are far too common.

Another problem with slugs would be they are far better than any alternative, 80 damage through laminated for an easy to hit shot seems extremely broken. Even 90 through makeshift. You would see rushing far more often since the success rate would be much higher.

Have you tried playing over a VPN by using a VPN client like Private Internet Access or Tunnel Bear? It's possible it's an issue with your routing to their servers.

Do you have another PC on which to run the game to make sure it's not your PC?

Find out when it started and rule out your ISP being involved with the problem while waiting for DBG.

You didn't seem to claify 100% whether it happens on another account... If it does, then it's definitely to do with the game and/or PC.

Do you get an error or just disconnected? Disconnected to the main menu or to Windows?

Play other games? DC in other games?

Hey, I developed a H1Z1 KOTK Crate Opening Simulator Android app.

All Prices are grabbed by Opskins and can be updated once a day.

If you have any Suggestions or found a Bug, Message me or write me a mail to:

Im not the best with telling whether laptops can run games, you would more than likely need a gaming laptop to run it. Would help if we knew graphics card details as well etc. But use this site to check for yourself http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri just search the game and see what the outcome is

Assuming you have a Nvidia GPU you probably have this setting checked inside the Nvidia control panel which forces lower resolutions to fit the entire screen. https://vgy.me/whMROf.png

Open the Nvidia control panel, Adjust desktop size and position and select no scaling.

Ah, currently making it more colourful isn't a priority, just trying to get the base style down first then the tweaking will happen.

Will add it to my list though, if you could provide mock-ups of things of where you'd like to see changes it would help greatly.

Stuff currently working on related to what you're asking

*Making the background of topic icons match their flair colour but will need to rework the icon colours to suit the change: https://vgy.me/LeTC0v.png

*Also planning on more colourful flairs like the one i have on the test sub: https://vgy.me/MOwY8Q.png (minus bill nye faces)

Its because Steam is down.

Check the status of Steam (and any other site) here: http://www.isitdownrightnow.com/steamcommunity.com.html

Edit: You can also use https://steamstat.us/ if you'd like, which is Steam specific.

Copy the Installation folder somewhere else on your PC - say for example C:/ make a folder called H1Z1

Copy your current directory from steamapps folder to this new folder on "C:/H1Z1" from here get Blender software.

Once in blender you can go through the files and pull out the characters as you wish, although I doubt they come fully clothed. The models might be stock versions and have no clothing items attached. You would need to extract these too.

Are you doing pepakura modelling work ?

Something about being close to people really fucks up, maybe has to do with the "too close to object" mechanic despite the symbol and animation not appearing. There is no way the shotgun would hit the door like that, but if you put a player infront of you all the bullets want to avoid him.

This happened to me yesterday https://sendvid.com/5uj4zs7k

Shotguns are fine for the most part outside of armor/headshot inconsistencies. What is not fine is random ass teleporting when people leave cars making it EXTREMELY unpredictable where they are going to pop out at. You can't even hold an angle on a fucking car door because he just pops out and teleports around

https://sendvid.com/gpaqfm26 https://sendvid.com/rvl90cu7 First vid the guy literally teleports out of my view and I have to go full circle around to find him. Second vid I am holding an angle on the door, the pops out and teleports literally on top of me making me miss the first shot then I miss the 2nd shot and wiff the third from complete shock at the idea that AR spamming would have been better than trusting a shotgun.

I'll honestly never understand the sniper consistency even after playing all the Sniper/Shotguns skirmishes. Had this happen in duos https://sendvid.com/pwvhkqw3

I lead on the guy in the back side of the building, it goes over his head. Then I aim literally on top of the other guy's head and its a body shot. I had to not aim higher on the guy in the back, but I had to aim higher on the guy closer? Elevation does weird ass shit to the shooting in this game, same shit happens shooting up/down hills.

Just look at the entries where the ms are very high. Each entry represents a "hop" that your packet has to take. Provide that to your ISP and they should know which switch/router it is.

You could also use a Geo/Visual TraceRoute (like: http://www.monitis.com/traceroute/) which will also give you an idea where the traffic is going.

well I don't know where you live, but I live in Portugal and for me the fix was installing a VPN program (if you don't know what it is its basically a program that will change your location) and I changed my location to the United States then I loaded in north america server instead of Europe and it worked for me. hope this helps good luck

Btw the vpn program I was used is called TunnelBear

> But I forgot people can't say anything on reddit without getting bashed.

Isnt that kind of what just happened here. They were sharing information with the community and you were giving them grief because some of the information in the post had been mentioned before in another post.

Still, you being upset over this seems petty.

Shouldn't let little things like that bother you man.

I remember my mom reading a book when I was younger called "Don't sweat the small stuff". Maybe you should give it a read man. Might help you shake off some of that stress.

That's a link to it on amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/Dont-Sweat-Small-Stuff-Its/dp/0786881852

Who cares about pro players? I dont give two shits about them; I was told to create my own path; not live in someone else's shadow, I suggest you to do the same.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Natural-Strong-Crafts-Decoration-Wrapping/dp/B01L1TQ9VW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1488329551&sr=8-1&keywords=noose On your wishlist, send me link

its a good pc so you got this covered. mousepad is 100% for improving aim so I recommend you getting something like QcK+ or QcK Heavy or any other brand in the same size of those.

my monitor suggestion is this: https://www.amazon.com/VG248QE-1920x1080-144Hz-Gaming-Monitor/dp/B00B2HH7G0/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1489671654&sr=8-3&keywords=144hz or this https://www.amazon.com/Acer-GN246HL-Bbid-24-Inch-Display/dp/B00KO4518I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1489671764&sr=8-1&keywords=acer+144hz

the asus one is more of a brand so it a bit costs more but the acer is a really good monitor too.

Make sure your CPU Heatsink is installed properly. You can download a free tool like Core Temp to monitor your CPU temperature to determine whether your bottleneck is thermal throttling. You can buy a decent liquid CPU cooler for $60ish https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00A0HZMGA

The 6600k supports dual channel ram. Make sure you reinstalled the ram into the correct slots after the swap. If all your dimms are on the same channel that might create a bottleneck.

I'd also recommend you run at least 8Gb of ram. The process often uses more than 5 Gb of ram on my rig so if you're trying to run the game on 4Gb of ram you're going to have a bad time.

Try closing all background applications and see if that makes a difference.

If all else fails, just turn down the graphics settings.
