Hello,
I hope all who reads this are well. I am a long time server owner, player, and modder for DayZ. It’s become a great passion of mine. I wanted to share my latest experience with the 1.23 update, as it seems to have fallen on deaf ears in other avenues.
I currently own and operate 6 community servers on the DayZ platform on Xbox, and have built a large flourishing community over the past few years. Since the update, 4 of my 6 servers have been completely unusable, either stuck in a restart loop, or not starting at all. Many other community server owners are having this same issue.
Several different representatives for Nitrado have claimed to have ‘resolved’ the issues in support tickets, however, nothing has changed. All of the servers still remain unplayable.
I have exhausted all avenues offered through nitrado to resolve the issues, without any success so far. Most recently, my server video was featured on the monthly DayZ Community Spotlight. After 2 weeks of back and forth with nitrado, several server wipes, reinstalls, recommended settings changes, reverting to default xmls, the still the server is unplayable. I have gone as far as to buy brand new servers in attempts to get this running and have had no luck. It’s been disappointing to say the least.
There are many other community server owners fighting the same fight over the past couple of weeks since release. I’m almost certain I speak for all of us when I say, we could really use some outside help here.
Thank you for your time,
Bennett
