komodoh Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 So now that the DayZ standalone is out (sort of), what exactly does HG division plan to do with the game? Will you still be hosting private servers or will characters be connected to the Global Hive? I don't really understand what this division is doing at this point. even before the release of the standalone, i wasn't able to find any HG servers at all. Am i misinformed on what is actually happening or is nothing actually happening at this point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilpest Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I updated the DayZ Server List thread, didn't realize it was an old server. So far HG has had a server for about 1-2 years now, a DayZ Epoch Chernarus. Not sure what you mean about the Global Hive and Private servers are we still talking about the Mod or the standalone? Standalone currently has no private so we'll have to go with the Public Hive.... Now if you're asking about the Mod, we plan to stick with Private Hive as that is the most popular, however there will be a Hive within our DayZ Mod servers as we grow and get more servers as there is a way to do that, even with the difference in maps (I believe, I'd have to relook through the code as I haven't looked at it in like 3-4 months). Back onto the DayZ Standalone, a server at a minimum will cost us over 65$ USD a month, its like $2.24 a slot so it is really expensive and we have no idea how we're going to get donations in the standalone which is a big reason we want to keep the DayZ Mod servers up as we have perks and admin available for players who donate. Though if we get our DayZ Mod servers more active and get the donations flowing we'll try and get a single standalone server up, how ever in our meeting on 20131220 at 8pm EST, we discussed whether or not we should get one considering its in Alpha so there's still a lot of issues with the game, and the high cost for a server and our lack of activity on our DayZ Mod servers. I am sure my dA's might have more information or opinions to include. Though as far as I am aware what I stated is the majority of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
->SK<- Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Here's the breakdown of what we're going to be doing over the next few weeks; Pilpest, TheThingsGoPop and myself are currently fixing any outstanding issues in the Chernarus Map (Dupes, AI problems etc.) We are in the process of creating a plentiful supply of events thanks to Navi. We should have them up and running over the next few weeks. Yes we have lost our popularity due to stuff happening, but now that we are geared and ready to go again, we will become a bigger and better division. https://hellsgamers.com/topic/80649-updatesbug-reportsuggestions-changelog/ Keep an eye on this, this will be added to regularly as I go along finding bugs. We are coming back and that's a promise! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
komodoh Posted December 21, 2013 Author Share Posted December 21, 2013 Thank you both for the information. So the Majority of the future activity will be on the mod correct? Aren't you worried that the standalone will draw everyone away from the mod into the newer versions of the game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilpest Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Not everyone wants to get the game because its in Alpha and after awhile they won't want to play it because of the amount of bugs and issues it still contains as it is in the stage of Alpha.
