Quick update on current HUD state.

1. Time and Date. We have universal time/date across all servers, with "starting" date around October 15 2018. Right now day/night cycle is set to be around 4 hours, but we'll be adjusting that during closed beta test to find value that will fit best.

2. You visibility and noise level meters. Faster you move, more visible you're and more noise you're making. Your posture affect your visibility as well.

3. Food and water levels, Health meter, your stamina meter ( only visible when running ) and your blood toxicity meter ( if you got infected ). As you can see I'm really dehydrated right now and I'll be losing health every few seconds if I won't drink something soon.

4. You Primary weapon, melee weapon ( you can have both equipped at same time ) and four of "quick slots" in your backpack. Quick slots are accessible by pressing keys 3,4,5,6 ( default layout ). You can equip any item that can be used on yourself or other players.

5. If you have firearm equipped it'll show how many bullets left in magazine, how many magazines you have, and what current fire mode is ( can be semi auto, 3 burts, full auto - some weapons just have one mode, some have different modes ).

As you can see I'm playing in Hardcore mode so there're now crosshairs on the screen.

Okay, so I went to explore this house. Dropped flare to illuminate my path. Found some food inside and when I was on my way back found that fucking zombies just flocking to light like moths.

Spent almost 10 minutes just lying still there, until flare went off and they left...

Game looks way better than DayZ's engine

That looks absolutely awesome.
Is it in Beta or something?

There was no sound while crawling either...
I think it's just cause they still have to add in different sounds and effects for things.

Personally I think it looks pretty cool, I may even buy it!

 

[Hinouchi]

The game is freaking crickets ... worse gameplay video EVER~

 

[Pyro]

doesnt look like the graphics are that much better than dayz. in the end it will come down to how much better the controls are. also getting rid of the artefacts and hackers wont hurt.

artifacts r gone in dayz.
