[@DJUwU]

The developers really took the immersion out of me when it comes to wolves...whom usually wouldn't even attack humans because they expect us to be able to fend them off in real life. Wolves avoid humans. And the Chinese eats Wolves...and dogs...and they have been fine for thousands of years. Unless you are already bleeding, and the wolves also happen to be starving and desparate...they wouldn't attack. But if they did, their hunting parties are usually also bigger than 4, especially in Russia where this game is based. There's Siberian superpack with 400 wolves...just imagine what they could have done to make wolves more realistic and terrifying...where they only spawn in if you are bleeding in the forest and if they come...they are in a pack of 40...and they ambush hunt you like they would in real life instead of howling really loud.

I agree, experienced players never really starve to death anyway so making more ways of getting sick from food just means they will spend more time looking for safe sources and less time finding players to interact with. If your a new player trying to learn how to survive it’s gonna be very tough now to not accidentally kill yourself with poison

[@michaelvd2467]

Bro imagine they would add hallucinations to heavy metal poisoning at stage 3. Like seeing a player walk around without it actually being there

[@DaBaby-vm9dd]

By the time I actually get up north (or south on Namalsk) and start running into wolves and bears a lot, food isn’t really an issue. This change is just punishing now as if you kill a pack of wolves or bear there isn’t a reward for surviving that shit. Especially a bear. Just lower the amount of meat you get from wolves and don’t change shit about bears cuz bears are scary

[@juniormafia25]

Heavy Metal Poisoning with Lead and Mercury, this adds up with those excavation vehicles and other mining items we see in the sakhal trailer.

It’s easy to forget that the dev team for DayZ is fairly small for such a popular game. Use your resources and reach out to them and (politely/professionally) inform them that you are not happy with the changes they made. The devs are usually pretty good at responding to things the players say. Insulting them for making what you view to be a mistake is not the right move. They are just people trying to make a fun hardcore survival game for YOU to enjoy.

Well, the amount of meat you get is already very low if you think of the animal you just killed. Same thing when you kill something like a cow. Where did the rest of the animal end up? Now, one could always make wolves more dangerous if you want a balance change. Like, the whole pack attacks you at once and not just one by one while they spend most of the time barking at you or running next to you.

Great and informative video as usual. The changes to predator meat are so very unrealistic! If you are going to contract Salmonella from eating meat, it's going to be from eating chicken before anything else. That's just fact. I'm a real life chicken farmer. yes, really. If the DayZ devs don't want us eating carnivore meats, just drop the nutritive values, quantity, or make it otherwise not worth the effort to harvest and prepare it. Maybe make it take too long to cook to done and then burn almost faster than you can get it off the heat? Or make it so you only get a couple of steaks off an animal, or not let any meat at all be harvested? Seems limiting the harvest to pelts and bones alone would be easier to code and actually make a little more sense. I frankly find them saying they are striving for more "realism" in the game to be laughable, considering so many other things in DayZ. It just doesn't ring true for me. And if wolves and bears are now verbotten, why not foxes? This really makes zero sense, if what is really happening is an attempt at realism. Which begs the question: Why? Why, really?

I think the chance of getting sick from eating the meat should be like a 75% chance or something which can be cured with a rare tablet but whether you are geared or not there’s a chance to take.

[@kawafahra]

Hunting, preparing, heating up, storing and eating meat is not worthwile when you can survive on fruits, vegetables and the occasional canned food. I have my stash hideout in respawn proximity to a forest full of mixed fruit trees. Also, fruit trees seem to spawn two fruits every 3 Minutes once you are in proximity and its respawn spots are empty. So if you do fruit raid & repeat like me, move to tier 2 or tier 3 area ( tier 1 fruit trees spawn only one fruit with a 2/3 chance of not spawning something at all, from my experience ). about 15 fresh two-slot fruits will fill up water & food levels completely, the dried froots you collect along the fresh fruits respawning will never turn moldy / stale when stashed. If you spend some time at your stash, just do your round every 5 minutes and within 3-4 rounds you & your stash are absolutely stacked with a fruit basked.

[@king9bike967]

Yeah, but you can keep using the iodine and the rubbing alcohol until wound infection goes away and it’ll go away in like 2 to 3 uses it takes like five seconds to get rid of wound infection

[@Wes0817]

With other illnesses such as salmonella or cholera you need to take several tetra spaced out depending on the severity of the sickness. so I’m assuming it’s going similar to that.

People think about food but if the taps stop running - now what. ... Who has actually looked at the physics of surviving a nuke strike? ...if you survive the blast, getting INDOORS, no bunker no top secret air system - just IN A BUILDING and STAYING THERE for weeks on end will reduce your risk of lethal radiation poisoning by a LARGE percent.

Don't joke and don't kid yourselves, you could be out shopping or at work when a strike hits, you could survive, PEOPLE DID in Hiroshima.

There is a zone after the strike where the fallout will fall but the blast will not destroy buildings, and you will have up to a couple hours to get home before that crud falls out of the atmosphere. Never discount your chances, and don't shame others for trying to plan for their own survival.

Such moronic reasoning infuriates me, honestly.

[@jon-paulfilkins7820]

Most hunter gatherer societies won't eat things like the livers and kidneys of predators because vitamins and toxins are super concentrated into them. The effects are debilitating and potential fatal. I suspect that is what they are trying to replicate but... using the existing mechanisms does not quite gel.

[@texmerc6977]

I randomly got sick, and vomiting, after eating beef steak. No idea why. I had all white stats... Literally just happened.

[@benandwhatever]

I imagine there will be a lot of wolves on Sakhal, so they didn't want too much available meat. Infected meat should only come from infected animals, and it should visibly look infected. Sakhal could simply have many infected wolves and bears instead of a shortsighted change that jeopardizes the meat system.

Man im gonna transfer, didnt know heavy metal is that dangerous.. gonna listen to reggea

When is it coming out?

[@ayyjack]

If all meat aside from fish doesn't have salmonella, does that mean we can eat it raw or is there another sickness it gives you?

Anything else about the infected meat ? I wanna eat bear steaks without being a walking pharmacist

[@averagekiwibloke3436]

I dont like this change. I get why they did it tho. Why not just drastically reduce how much meat the predators give or reduce the calories it gives you.

[@sneauxday7002]

They already have some of the worst nutrition in the game lol, i think rice has more calories in dayz xD

[@the-expertstreetb-racer5832]

wish they just reduce the rain event and make it more dangerous rather than having to light a fire every 30 seconds to dry out on Livonia.

how many ways to die exist in dayz? does anybody has an idea?

[@wendysbaconator1175]

It makes sense that bear and wolf would get you sick. In real life predators can get you sick if you eat them. This is gunna be a pain in the but. Best to avoid wolves now.

[@parzival6-251]

I love this change makes sense if you think about it they been attacking an eatin the infected.

[@Grizzalis]

yea but in the lore the infected are normal human with the rage virus and everyone is immunized to the virus

[@thestateofalaska]

bears are rare and wolf meat was already pretty pathetic in terms of energy regeneration. Not to mention that by the time you have the means to take out wolf packs you also have the means to easily hunt elk or cows whenever you need more food. This is such a garbage change.

[@joshuacurtis8383]

Is the update out

Yeah

[@s3any1977]

Why do I love playing a game that is constantly trying to kill me?

[@pennyjerkins7115]

Bring it on. Also the zombies should get that buff again. I say make the game even more harder. Make it to where freshies need to team up in order to survive. Instead of someone you team up with betraying you for your jacket and six shotgun shells.

Charcoal should work as well to detoxify you

Any update on PlayStation wipe date?
