Pre-release of 1.7.0 is already on the forum. Features a totally new blazing fast login system and your fps will no longer drop because of all the dead bodies on the server. Plus they're moving to Arma 2 1.61 (not to be confused with DayZ's version).
Awesome, I love how fast they are updating this.
Kind of gutting though, 5 of us were running around for a few hours yesterday, I found the biggest backpack possible and a huge range of gadgets including a map. We were running through a field near the middle of the map when all of a sudden one of us exploded, then we turned around and a tank was sitting behind us, when we all went near it, it exploded and killed all of us.
The amount of control people have with cheats is really annoying, they can kill everyone on the server instantly making them lose hours of work.
Anyway I hear the 1.7.0 update is already being rolled out to most servers, which fixes most of the FPS issues and the long waiting times to get into servers.

Are you attempting to indirectly ask for a gift
This game is so amazing..
Was playing all the night with a friend, we spent hours getting to the airfield, only to be shot in the north western corner because we were dumb enough to throw flares and make a camp fire.
Will not do again

Ran around yesterday, lost in the woods with no ammo. Arrived at some house where some random guy was getting raped by a zombie. Naturally I tried to help the guy and distract the zombie, but I had forgotten I had flares equipped and for some reason I kept pressing fire and throwing flares. Must have been the most random sight ever, some moron running over to you and tossing flares about.
Goddamnit I just downloaded the previous build of this yesterday.
I really wish I could get more entertainment out of this.
Unfortunately, every time I make my character, I set out, and as if on cue, shot.

Unfortunately I don't think Rocket has much idea of how the game is being played or how to avoid it.
Bandit skins were good, but he completely removed them. If he set them to show up under lower humanity it might have worked better. Now you start with no skins and could be a "bandit" in disguise since you can respawn, kill, die, respawn, repeat.

Finally, no more sub-20fps for me! I also love how Rocket has this as his signature now.

Yeah, I noticed a very dramatic change in this game's playerbase as soon as I updated to 1.6.0.1. There are no longer any repercussions for killing other players; the humanity meter is useless. [b]Everybody[/b] shoots everyone else on sight now. Anonymous teamwork simply does not happen anymore.
The worst part is that now I also have to start killing people on sight or else I'm just going to keep dying. Everyone is switching over to 'shoot first, never ask questions' in order to protect themselves, and it's causing complete and total chaos.

If you were smart, you'd kill everyone on sight, who know's they won't turn on you later in the future?

Wait for a sale, like me and my buddy are. The summer sale will be the longest you're gonna have to wait, and that's not far off at all.

I kind of agree, though it was quite annoying being marked as a bandit after I accidently killed someone, then that cause a vicious circle where everyone would shoot at me on sight, then I'd get lower humanity for killing them.
He did say the humanity is kind of a WIP system and I dont think he really knows where he wants to go with it. I would like the bandit skins back but I would also like it to be easier to get rid of bandit status, right now it feels like once you murder one person you are stuck with bandit permanently (Unless you just avoid everything and run around alone for a long long time)
