Preview for the upcoming 1.24 Experimental patch, streamed at twitch.tv/dayz. VOD available here.

• The "DayZ in 2024" article is planned for February.

• Changes to collision/fire geometry of trees/bushes to reduce players and vehicles getting stuck, will also increase performance and produce less particles when shooting at them. Old vs New

Old

New:

• New sounds for SKS (and other weapons?)

• Bullet impact sounds are now less noticeable to AI (easier to sneak around infected when shooting suppressed weapons)

• Added more sounds for various crafting/gathering actions (crafting rag clothing etc)

• Bandaging is now a continuous action so you can heal multiple cuts in a single animation providing that you have multiple bandages/rags in a stack.

• Added new military helmet "Camouflage Helmet" with multiple variants (1kg - Low Insulation)

• Blunt weapons have been rebalanced again, now stronger against infected.

• Improvements to the weapon raise/collision mechanic to make it more accurate, should be less frustrating trying to aim through doorways/windows etc.

• Firearms can now spawn already chambered, so it's harder to tell if it's a world spawn item or one dropped by a player.

• When you have a container/clothing item in your hands that's full of items, you can now transfer them directly to your inventory by double clicking (previously this only worked if the item was on the ground) (I'm not sure how or if this applies to console)

• Added new firearm SR-3M, fires 9x39.

• Added 30 round 9x39 magazine for the SR-3M, ASVAL and VSS. Based on this teaser image

Außerdem wurden wohl die Kameraeinstellungen der Hubschrauber verbessert und der Huey fliegt wohl besser.
