No more sandals for this old dude

Me and my friend respect this. We raided your ass but you killed us all with your unpinned grenade after we got you, fair game in my book.

You had a orange jacket and we all died in a green 2-story house.

Sincerely dayz enjoyer.

Had to try it… for science

Nasdara is an incredible challenge, and it seems like a massive issue that so many community servers still have the sped up night in place. If you’re running a community server for badlands, I implore you to alter the sped up nights so that players can actually utilize a break from the sun!

Anyone else have this issue

Done my gas zone run

Best air time I’ve seen yet, buddy ripped the lip & lived to tell the tale.

Chnarus, I was south of novodmitrovsk. I just got off after.

I have a moderate to heavy day z addiction. For me, coming into this forum is like a newly-quit smoker walking through an exhale cloud. It helps a little, but it the end it only magnifies the loss.

i have no idea how my friend survived this😂

Honestly underground water needs to change back to dirty water. The game is way to easy now for veterans, basicly you have made the dynamic water static.. another thing if your temp is red 🥵 hot you take damage only subtle to prevent healing.. much like sykhals dark blue temp. I like the idea of seeing other survivors in situations that they themselves cannot afford to just run to next town or engage in combat.. if that makes sence.

Im a DayZ Noob, i ran from spawn to the woods and saw absolutely nothing for 20 minutes, not even a zombie. As i finally reached a town with flashing food and drink bar i had to 1v1 a fucking mummy (?!) with a crowbar and died. What the fuck was that ?

Saw a bunch of posts about digital locks on backwards and stuff but nothing about them not locking. I built a gate, attached the lock with battery in it, set the code, locked it. Gate still opens from both sides. I can see the red locked indicator and I can manage the lock and remove it after I put the pin in. Anyone else seeing this? This is on a vanilla community server. Only Administrative mods.

Title.
I joined his chat to watch and noticed only 2 people speaking out of 500.

Whatever - but then i checked the accounts and tried @'ing some in chat but what do you know? couldn't.

I asked why i wasn't able to @ anyone and caught a permanent removal.

I’ve been playing Dayz on and off for years, I’m by no means a hater of the game (beyond the typical self-loathing all true players of the game suffer from) and I’m by no means new to the game. I’d say I have a solid B+ to A- understanding of the game.

But the heat sickness element to Badlands is almost unplayable.

Am I missing something? I stay hydrated, I wash my face, drench my clothes, I try not to sun bathe but I do want to play the fucking game a bit so I have to go outside to move between houses/villages during the day.

Am I missing something, or is the heat stroke genuinely just a merciless experience?

Hi guys, i am not sure why it is not downloading the mods no matter what i try, can anyone help please?

it keeps giving me this Russian text when ever i try.

Right after smoking dudes, this man appears.... my gameplay is unbelievably random.

Went in blind like everyone was saying and first two days were rough, was about to give up till I met you by the lake houses. Had a great experience with this dude without a mic last night. Which was actually even cooler trying to figure out what he wanted me to do and stuff. Wish I coulda got his or her name but mad respect and thx

Should i keep my Savannah, or the scar 17 i just got from a bunker, not much of a close pvper, prefer pve more, so what do you guys think? would love the scar 16 with a suppressor over the 17 to be honest for my secondary to my savannah, but havent had luck on the suppressor, running a SGK 9mm with pistol suppressor at the moment in that regard

Hey Survivors,

Week 1 of DayZ Badlands

We’re thrilled to announce that more than 325,500 units of DayZ Badlands have been purchased across all platforms, and DayZ reached a peak of more than 435,500 concurrent players during the launch period. It’s been a massive success, not just in terms of sales, but also in the amount of community content, opening up more doors and opportunities for DayZ and its community as a whole. We’re humbled by your support and sincerely appreciate all the love you’ve shown Nasdara. You can find the data below:

Nasdara is truly a labor of love for all of us, and we wanted to share a few words about what it means to the team. So, we’ve prepared a dev diary video for you below. Please enjoy!

What’s next in the coming weeks?

The work doesn’t stop here. We released the first patch last week, addressing a number of issues. Some modding and community related issues arose along the way, and we’re making internal changes to help future patches roll out more smoothly and consistently. We have also reached out and working to improve our communication with server owners and modders.

We’re also working on a hotfix focused on crashes and other Badlands-related problems that need more urgent attention. We expect it to enter Experimental as soon as this week Thursday (find the patch notes here), followed by a Stable release next week. More details on this soon. After that, a second patch will address more issues and make adjustments to some features in DayZ Badlands. We’ll continue sharing dev blogs about these changes and other topics we’d like to explore. We enjoy putting these blogs together, so you can expect more of them for general updates in the future, too.

The Halloween seasonal event started this Monday, the 26th, on Steam, PlayStation, and Xbox. We also plan to support Christmas, our final seasonal event of the year, but more on that later.

Again, thank you so much for all your support and love.
Big love from us too,
The DayZ Team
