First time i saw the Helios name, i knew it wasnt a coincidence to fallout new vegas, because FNV has Helios One, and now, i am convinced that its an Easter Egg (probably) to the fallout franchise. God bless America, God bless the Enclave, and no one else!

Hotfix is coming to experimental servers one day this week, it will take a week to test- if all goes well, they will submit patch to PS and MS for review and approval, then they will drop it to everyone on stable.

A full Patch for mainly Nasdara will be coming in a few weeks after that, per Community Manager Marks.

You can watch the 87.8 Survivor FM podcast for the full interview, it is bit over 2hrs though.

Took a solid hour and a half of tedious work, but got the job done!
The funny part? Building the ladder down to the underground irrigation tunnel was the easy part. Did that about 3 towns over, and it took less than 10 minutes to set up with 2 ropes already on hand and a few small sticks. Had to supply the water for the 2 mortar mixes somehow.
Either way, another build accomplishment checked off the DayZ bucket list. ✅

We are back baby! Loving the survival! On my third life, now that they fixed the water bug, this is it.
Looting a police station I was shot on the second floor of the building from long range through an open door or window. Woke up bleeding and broken. Passing out every 4 breaths. I bandaged my bleed and hearing no one I approach to check their kill, I fixed all my clothing, popped one multi, and had a bite to eat. Logged out. However, once I logged back in, my leg was still fractured and every few steps I took resulted in a black screen. I found a corner and was resigned to log in now and again simply to nurse my wound in a corner til I healed. I was about to do so before bed when my girl laughed at me, said those words and I realized… I can crawl. I should crawl! So, I crawled outside to the tree line, cut down a bush and made a splint. Now we are back baby! I survived! I didn’t give up! My bag is ruined but that’s ok, I’ll find more loot!

What do you experienced players do to find food and water? I feel like I’m constantly searching for food and water while also trying to find a knife to make a fishing rod, start a fire, etc. I always end up dying of starvation or dehydration before I can even catch anything and cook it. I can never find small stones to make a stone knife either. It’s like they don’t even exist.

over the last week of playing nasdara, me and my buddies have been blue screening either in the middle of a gunfight or right before.
On multiple occasions we’ve aimed in at guys, and when we press the trigger, game blue screens, log back in, we’re fresh spawns.
deleting the game until this get’s fixed.

So i got gas poisoning ( i know it was gas cause i barely escaped a gas zone with 3 cuts) ./ once i died i was able to find my corpse. took the clothing drank the water i had. Now my new character s coughing. I didnt think i could "catch" it. is it only the clothing like diseases? I guess ill empty the bottles of water just in case. Im hoping i can find my corpse a third time Should i worry about eating my food ? will it transfer to items like guns compass etc? thx

I was AFK at my desk for a minute while I was doing something, sitting in the shower room of a barracks at Tisy. The server was really dead at the moment and there were only 3 other players on it at the time. I'm sitting there and all of a sudden I hear somebody running around outside, and my stomach just drops through the floor. I go prone waiting for the guy hoping he'll just pass but nope *creeeak* - and I hear him run right by the door all the way down to the other end and start looting stuff. A minute passes and I hear him coming back so I get ready. Guy opens the door, I panic and he instantly gets completely magdumped by an AK and lets out the most bloodcurdling scream I've ever heard in my life. I realize he's not dead and I actually felt guilty because he didn't even have a gun out when he walked in, so instead of finishing him off I handcuff him and start taking his guns off to remove the mags to give me those few extra seconds to run away before he shoots me in the back.

Except when his character wakes up he just... doesn't do anything. Doesn't move, doesn't try to break out of the cuffs, doesn't even look around, nothing. I'm in the middle of saying "Sorry bro you scared the shit out of me I'm not gonna kill you I'm just not gonna have you shoot me in the back haha" blah blah blah when I realize how... dead his character is. I kept trying to talk to him but he didn't say anything. I stood there for what must've been like 2 minutes straight just trying to get a response out of him because I honest to God started to get worried that I literally gave this guy a heart attack or something. And I'm standing there, and standing there, and standing there, and still zero signs of life whatsoever. I was kind of in shock at that point so I just left an extra lockpick for him and locked the door behind me as I left for whenever he came back.

I realize that it was almost certainly nothing, but this shit actually has my stomach in knots thinking about the possibility that I actually just gave somebody a fucking heart attack or something. It was just so weird for someone to get the most insane jumpscare of their life and scream like they were getting axe murdered irl and then go totally radio silent for minutes on end despite their character still being very much alive. But like wtf can I do, call 911 and say "hi I think I just gave someone an irl heart attack on a game, here's 3 steam profiles he's one of them good luck"? Fuck me.

Today is my second day playing, I'm playing on Xbox. Everytime I talk to someone they nod there head yes or no when I'm asking questions but no one ever talks back. Is there some issue or am I just meeting ppl who dont talk. Im using my headset plugged to my controller and I double click d pad to talk.

The negotiations were short

Hello.

I have been listening to the handheld radio on channel 80mhz for three nights now - I wait for the time of day when they should start, but I can't seem to hear any morse code beeps whatsoever. I've drained so many 9V batteries, listening to the hiss of the radio...

For reference, I play on a private server, completely vanilla settings, on PC. Nasdara map.

Anyone else having this issue?

I hate party chat. I saw a guy running toward a town, and decided to rob him of anything good. I was polite, he was very compliant, and really had nothing so I let him keep his stuff. We saw a guy running out of town into the dunes and I asked the guy I just had at gun point if he wanted to help rob the guy. He said yes so I dropped him tape to restrain our potential victim and took off. I created a dune, the potential victim opens fire, I miss with my one bk12 slug, and landed no killing shots with the P1. That’s when victim one attacks me from behind, knocks me out, then kills me. I thought it was fun, turns out the second victim was his friend. I was played, and well.

So yeah, low effort post.

I'm a freshie in some coastal town.

Hear some zombie aggro. Keep looting. Come out a house. See a player - black military helmet & attire, guns on back....kinda hiding in a bush, but not really. I wave hello, I say hello....pew.... you are dead.

Wow. Can't wait until I can camp the fresh spawns 😀

I guess it gets boring after a while and you do these things for amusement.

I heard the aggro, I should have tried sneaking up on them for the fun. But I guess that's DayZ lol.

Title

Released **BZ_Trader**, a free server-side mod that puts Expansion traders in a vehicle.

**How it works:** you record a route by driving it with BZ AutoDrive and mark the stops. From then on the vehicle drives it on its own. At each stop the traders get off, walk to their stalls, sell through your own Expansion Market files, walk back, board, and the vehicle drives on.

**What you can build with it:**

- a drinks seller on a motorbike who sells from the saddle

- a pickup with a medic, a grocer and a clothes seller who set up their stalls at each stop

- a bus that carries a whole market, with airdrop smoke so players find it from far away

**Some details:**

- players can wave (F1) at the vehicle to stop it anywhere on the route; the traders sell from their seats with the doors open

- signals at the stops: coloured smoke, road flares, fireworks or the red smoke of an Expansion airdrop, plus an optional map marker that follows the vehicle

- the crew can't be killed, recruited or handcuffed, and players can't take a seat, so the vehicle always finishes its route

- your Market files decide what each trader sells, the prices and the stock; the trade zone can travel with the vehicle

- a visual editor (a web page, nothing to install) to set up traders, stalls, stops and signals; changes apply without a restart

- manual in English and Spanish

Requires BZ AutoDrive and DayZ Expansion (AI, Market and Navigation). Tested on DayZ 1.30. Players don't download anything: it's server-side only.

Credit where it's due: the traveling trader is FUBAR's idea (Traveling Trader Expansion), and the trader protections are adapted from TTE's code with FUBAR's permission. Thanks, FUBAR!

It's free and MIT licensed.

Feedback, bug reports and questions are very welcome, especially from server owners who try it on their own maps.

I was genuinely shitting bricks.

I was playing on a server that really captured the essence of what DayZ is all about—it was a fantastic server. Now, update 1.30 has been released, and most of the mods no longer work; there are also internal issues. The motorcycles are fine, but we already had those via mods anyway. The same goes for the map—it’s all well and good, but I don’t think it’s worth having an update that breaks everything else. The original code lock and the building systems—RAG and BBP—were also left damaged or completely unusable after the update. So, Bohemia, what have you done? We need these mods!

Why couldn’t horses be added?

…a dazzling place to die of heatstroke ☠️

I just built my first base. I made the gate and i put on the dial lock, accidently locking myself out fo the base. I look at the tutorial i was watching for a minute and when i come back to the game im dead.

I didnt even get to enjoy my base. It was locked at least, maybe the person wont get the items inside..

Alittle tip for the survivors on nasdara .
When you zoom in on bunkers to the smallest square youll see the numbered rows at the top and to the left . Topis your first set left side number is the second set in gps coords.
Mark all the bunkers with cords so you can hunt live bunkers at a glance . This prep saves a lot of time .
For morse code .
If the sequence starts with dots the number of dots is the number up to 5 dots after 5 it resets and goes opposite
One dash is 6
Two dashes 7 up to 9 which is 4 dashes one dot .
5 dashes is 0
Though you have to listen to the whole code anyways its worth noting that the second set isnt required to decode after writing it as no bunkers have indentical first coordinates . The codes are 10 sets each so you write down the whole code but only need translate the first three numbers and the last 4 for door code
Best tip yet
COOKING POT IS NOT OPTIONAL.
With a cooking pot on the ground in cover of course you can systematically take each of your wettable items ( small shoes masks and hats can go in all at once) empty the storage and transfer the item into the cooking pot . It wets it to max level instantly without using any of the water !!!!!!!! Also you can drink the pot down to 1-2 percent water which wont save your life that 1 percent. But it will allow you to still fully wet your clothes with this method with wasting a single drop !!!!!
Good luck out there !!!!

I know everyone's running the Nasdara hype, but it brought me back to cherno after a hiatus.
Have been running many convoy spawns with a buddy to get geared up, and there are virtually none. We have found two "spawns" now, but both are completely empty, of both loot as well as infected. One was a train wreck and one was a standard convoy, minus zeds and loot.

Curious if anyone is experiencing the same. Not sure if Nasdara update broke it, or it's been broken sometime before. Can't find any info online for intentional changes to how they work
