Update 1.2.9 (und verwandte Updates)

• Status: Verspätet.
• Grund für die Verspätung: Das Team arbeitet weiterhin an Serverleistungsverbesserungen, die sich als komplexer und zeitaufwändiger herausgestellt haben, als ursprünglich angenommen.
• Aktueller Fokus: Serverleistungsverbesserungen sind die Hauptaufgabe. Das Team arbeitet hart an diesen Verbesserungen, aber sie sind noch nicht auf einem Niveau, das eine stabile Veröffentlichung zulässt.
• Auswirkungen des vorherigen Updates: Update 1.2.8 hat die Serverleistung verschlechtert, weshalb das Team die Verbesserungen vor der Veröffentlichung von 1.2.9 priorisiert.
• Zukünftige Veröffentlichung: Der Update wird veröffentlicht, sobald die Leistungsverbesserungen abgeschlossen und stabil sind. Das Team glaubt, dass es besser ist, den Release zu verschieben, um einen Update mit besserer Leistung zu veröffentlichen, anstatt einen mit schlechter Leistung.
• Zusätzliche Verbesserungen: Der Update soll auch Leistungstweaks für Server und Konsolen enthalten, nicht nur Serververbesserungen.
• Kein Veröffentlichungsdatum: Es gibt kein bestätigtes Veröffentlichungsdatum für 1.2.9 derzeit.
• Kommunikation: Das Team wird mehr Informationen über den Update, einschließlich Details zu „Tagzügen“ und anderen Funktionen, sobald sie verfügbar sind, auf allen sozialen Medien bekanntgeben.

Weitere Updates und Informationen

• Badlands-Karte:
  • Die neue Karte wird entwickelt und sieht gut aus.
  • Das Team arbeitet intensiv daran.
  • Es gibt keine spezifischen Details zu neuen Gegenständen oder Funktionen.
  • Dev-Blogs werden mehr Informationen liefern, sobald sie veröffentlicht werden.
• Konsolenleistung:
  • Leistungsverbesserungen für Konsolen werden bearbeitet und sollen Teil des Updates 1.2.9 sein.
• Infiziertes AI-Mods:
  • Die Idee, dass Infizierte Türen öffnen oder Gegenstände werfen können, wird als „cool“ und eine einzigartige Abwandlung betrachtet, aber keine offizielle Implementierung wird erwähnt.
• Server-Wipes:
  • Es gibt keine Informationen über Server-Wipes derzeit.
• Combat-Logging:
  • Eine Idee, die Logout-Zeit zu verlängern und eine Animation hinzuzufügen, um Combat-Logging anzuzeigen, wurde diskutiert, aber keine Entscheidung wurde getroffen.
• Karten-Namen:
  • Die Karte heißt Nazdara, und der DLC heißt Badlands.
• Andere Funktionen:
  • Das Team ist sich der Probleme wie „falscher Server“ bewusst und arbeitet daran.
  • Die Möglichkeit, Sleds für das Rutschen von Hügeln hinzuzufügen, wurde als lustige Idee diskutiert, aber es gibt keine offiziellen Pläne.
  • Die Idee eines „Schneesturms“ (eine Schneesturmmechanik) wurde als potenzielle Funktion erwähnt, aber es gibt keine Details.

Zusammenfassung der wichtigsten Update-Informationen

• Update 1.2.9 ist verspätet, da laufende Serverleistungsverbesserungen im Vordergrund stehen.
• Leistungsverbesserungen sind der Hauptfokus, und der Update wird nicht veröffentlicht, bis diese stabil sind.
• Kein Veröffentlichungsdatum ist derzeit verfügbar.
• Badlands-Karte ist in Entwicklung und wird neue Gegenstände enthalten, aber es gibt keine spezifischen Details.
• Konsolenleistung wird bearbeitet und wird Teil des Updates 1.2.9 sein.
• Andere Funktionen wie infizierte AI-Mods, Sleds und Schneesturmmechaniken werden als Ideen diskutiert, aber nicht bestätigt für die Veröffentlichung.

Update 1.2.9 (and related updates)

• Status: Delayed.
• Reason for Delay: The team is still working on server performance fixes, which are proving to be more complex and time-consuming than initially anticipated.
• Current Focus: Server performance improvements are the primary focus. The team is working hard on these fixes, but they are not yet at a standard that allows for a stable release.
• Impact of Previous Update: Update 1.2.8 made server performance worse, which is why the team is prioritizing fixes before releasing 1.2.9.
• Future Release: The update will be released once the performance fixes are complete and stable. The team believes it's better to delay the release for a better-performing update than to release one with poor performance.
• Additional Improvements: The update is expected to include performance tweaks for both servers and consoles, not just server fixes.
• No Release Date: There is no confirmed release date for 1.2.9 at this time.
• Communication: The team will share more information about the update, including details on "day trains" and other features, as soon as they have it. They will announce it on all social media platforms.

Other Updates and Information

• Badlands Map:
  • The new map is being developed and is "looking good."
  • The team is "cooking on it" (working hard).
  • No specific details about new items or features are available yet.
  • Dev blogs will provide more information when they are released.
• Console Performance:
  • Performance improvements for consoles are being worked on and are expected to be included in update 1.2.9.
• Infected AI Mods:
  • The idea of infected being able to break down closed doors or throw objects is considered "cool" and a unique twist, but no official implementation is mentioned.
• Server Wipes:
  • No information is available about server wipes at this time.
• Combat Logging:
  • An idea to extend logout timers and add an animation to indicate combat logging was discussed, but no decision has been made.
• Map Names:
  • The map is called Nazdara, and the DLC is called Badlands.
• Other Features:
  • The team is aware of issues like "fake servers" and is looking into them.
  • The possibility of adding features like sleds for flying down hills was discussed as a fun idea, but no official plans exist.
  • The idea of a "snowstorm shank" (a snowstorm mechanic) was mentioned as a potential feature, but no details were provided.

Summary of Key Update Information

• Update 1.2.9 is delayed due to ongoing server performance fixes.
• Performance improvements are the main focus, and the update will not be released until these are stable.
• No release date is available yet.
• Badlands map is in development and will have new items, but no specific details are available.
• Console performance is being addressed and will be part of the 1.2.9 update.
• Other features like infected AI mods, sleds, and snowstorm mechanics are discussed as ideas but not confirmed for release.
