I cannot agree enough. I understand that auto-exposure is essentially required for a HDR Pipeline, but the settings need to be heavily tuned. The tech can *significantly* impact the visuals and make it look poorer than it should. I think some time sorely needs to be spent experimenting with how the average scene luminance is captured (certain objects or the sky have too much influence), clamping, and exposure compensation depending on the player environment so the image looks right?

I reuploaded the video clips to use H.264 codec instead of H.265 because I realize its support is very limited even on modern browsers, so my apologies if they weren't previously watchable on your browser. Please let me know if anyone has issues with viewing the videos.

@Geez or other BI Admins. There are strange bots in these comments with new accounts posting regurgitated messages and weird links.

Yes, hearing people scream when receiving leg and arm fractures (like in old ArmAs) can be great for immersion and provide actionable gameplay cues for both teammates and aggressors.

I think this in fact was a good change and long-needed given how fast characters are in the game. Maybe it’s a tad too loud but previously it was far too easy to run up on someone before you even hear them with the old audio (as frequently complained about by summit1g). The new changes make this less of an issue.

You guys can take ideas from ArmA 3 too.

Video:

I notice the exact same problem as DayZ with the gun swaying when moving demonstration in Reforger at 0:16. The weapon inertia has this noodle arm effect in Reforger and EnFUSION DayZ (see point #1 comparison video in T190295 ) that looks very off and will cause the gun and arms to clip into the eye or go above above it. This was never present in ArmA 3 neither in the Alpha versions of DayZ.

Highly agree with @it_is_Sunshine ‘s points along with @purechaos

I've recently started playing with sGunplay and love how it has the dynamic crosshair. Hip fire should never be accurate past close encounters.
Its so easy currently to center dot aim I've found this quite enjoyable to slow down and actually aim like the survivor I am and not some 20 year vet ranger.

@Geez Hello Geez, sorry for the ping, but I updated the ticket as I felt I could have been unclear about what my problems exactly were with the Stable/current version of the game. I took the liberty of adding comparison videos to illustrate and annotate those issues much better, so I hope it helps the development team clarify what the discrepancies are between the current version and the alpha version.

Agreed. The bullet snap sounds should also be improved and returned to their 0.59 or 0.61 glory. The supersonic cracks of bullets were extremely immersive, stressful, and adrenaline-inducing. I think DanceOfJesus articulated it very well starting from 18:18 in this video: https://youtu.be/jOi9mjQxsb8?si=TCJalz-8YX52fVSv&t=1098

This is also mentioned in T149811 , which has more detailed information on the bug. So please refer to that ticket as well, to try and reproduce and fix the issue.

I had the same problem with the SKS (along with the issues with holding R mentioned in T153569 ). I would want to see this fixed before 1.09 goes to stable, otherwise keep it in experimental.

I edited my comment, and the link should work now.

An example of something like this, but more refined would be awesome.

Hello @Geez This issue is still not fixed as of 1.09.153372.

@freerider3434 Has there been any update on your ticket?

I had this issue too. Sometimes reloading with R can be unresponsive, and you have to retry it a couple of times to get it to work.

Was going to make a report on this.
In stable branch of 1.08.153228, the wolves howl will trigger for one player, but for the others, they will not hear the wolves.

I think you guys should seriously consider Ragdoll for fixing this. I know it has it's problems for you guys development wise, but it would fix a lot of issues many people and I have in the game :)

Yeah, seriously what's up with the Amphibia and VSS issues.

It sounds awesome now and I do think proper adv. attenuation is in too now? Which is amazing.

That's what cars and bikes will be for Kappa.

Maybe get the dudes working on ARMA 4 to develop it, and backport it to DayZ ;)

This happens with all guns by the way Geez.

If interested, this was the footage of me overlooking from Zub Castle.

Hello Geez,

Hello, @Geez I don't think this is fixed yet of 1.05 EXP (still have to test)? This has been in games for more than 5 patches now, (since 0.63 stress test 50) but no rush if it's a really hard bug to find/fix within the codebase of EDEN I'm guessing.

The issues above that Beavis talked about the bullets being desynced, is the one that leads to very bad hit registration issues. Hope to see this get fixed soon :)

Yes, would be nice. I really hope they fix the irons sights issue not popping up on viewing through the scope.

just press G to throw

Hello @Geez Update as of 1.05 first update to Experimental.

We do have fade to black but I don't think it's as good as it was in 0.62 if I'm being entirely honest.

good prediction @EnterThePug but my main concern is that they really need to reduce the general player speed at <50% health.

also flares tend to fall through a lot too.

If you look at this youtube video you can see how the leaning severity was prior to .63

well the consoles all run on AMD GPUs btw, weaker than the RX480 and Vega 56

and to expand on @EnterThePug having increased despawn timers to atleast 20+ minutes is a must, and should be high priority for you guys.

While you are also at it, make the unconscious "ragdolls" (quotes because of GIB RAGDOLL つ ◕_◕ ༽つ ) more random and unique.

Yes on latest Stable verision
I get the same issues.

Hi once more again @Geez
I think you guys may be aware, but if you didn't. There is differing animations for people on the client, vs. how it's synced on the server.

Hey just an additional thing, I saw this post on the DayZ Reddit and it echos a similar sentiment and is a change that needs to happen. thanks :)

something really interesting I've seen suggested is to do it Escape From Tarkov route.

Here is another graphical issue that many have been facing, from source redditor u/RifleEyez
https://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/bs4yma/psa_anisotropic_filter_fix_check_comments_below/eoka23b?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x

@Geez Any comment on this?

This might be something good to fix before Survivor GameZ @Geez

This has really been bothering me as well.

Hello,
I saw an instance of this happening in Survivor GameZ, and this person that TheRunningManZ killed, had an MP133 shotgun in their hands while climbing up a ladder with an IZH-18 and fire axe shouldered
TRMZ was unable to access the shotgun in hands.

Hello again @Geez
There is also another method to reproduce this animation glitch and that is by

Something that also is of concern is hit feedback and damage system

T142388 this could be a side effect/result of these network issues on these servers @freerider3434 was talking about. very game-breaking with gunshots being silenced without a suppressor!

@Geez Please, can you let us know if you guys are either aware of this issue or acknowledge/have it assigned already?

On the topic of jumping, I would also like to mention that you can
