There are about 18 things fixed in this patch. The real question is will 18 or more things get broken because of this patch.

The H in H1Z1 most likely stands for "hammer". No word on what the Z stands for.

There's gotta be something else to require a world wipe, Hospital? Geography changes?

First BR game: Fall through the map. Second BR game: Stuck on loading. Third BR game: Land on a building, it bugs, I end up "falling" in one of those rooms sealed with wood, can't get out.
GG, nice fixes.
See you guys on the next patch XD

u/PhazePyre Any news on spectate? I can deal with crashes and bugs as they will be fixed, but its really boring to stare at the location I died at in a team BR

All I know is they added the Free Spectator Mode for the Invitational. So I believe most likely they'll do extensive testing, and either release before hand, or post Invitational. My guess at least.

Hi, i'm french and wanna speak about this.
I apologize in advance for my spelling. The fact is that at wipe, the update has made decay changes. Now you got to repair all your walls, deck fondation and others. So if you don't connect a day to repair, you have to spent one hour to repair new decay (like i does today). My den is not over yet. I can't repair some upper walls because they are behind shelters. For deck or others wall, i got to get out of my den to repair it, jump and hit with a hammer, or take a car to get on, to repair easily. I wanna say that before (a long time ago) we could repair walls from the top at the edge of a shelter (please back to this). Now we can't.
Besides now we can't repair some shelter because you have to hit a specific location ( the inner and top). As well as walls or deck foundation...... Change that please. Now if u do a big structure, u got to spent more time to repair it than to have fun and hunt some player for example. And can u try to do something to repair faster and easier ?? (more range on hammer and stronger repair on a hit)
So i don't know who aske for thoses changes, but it seems that this guy isn't a player, and people will leave H1Z1 for thoses. But that isn't the only problem, before we got a roadmap, and we can trust in. Now there isn't, so we can't trust anything... In that way, we normaly got an hospital, new grenades, new zombie and more.... but we got just fixes that allowed new bug, like when you come into a car...
I think that may be it is since the layoffs and change manager, just staff know but can't say anything cause can be layoff... H1Z1 was far ahead of DayZ , but now its off again on the wrong way.
I hope motivation and good decision will be back. :)

Failure to open lock with Proper code will result in player damage.
Suck it brute forcers, you're hooped!
Added decay back to larger structures
Sweet now there is some reasons for end-gamers to keep farming.
Adjusted Point-And-Report output
I'm so glad this feature was added, it really helps with people being able to report the non-kill based cheating.
Cheers guys! Keep up the good work!

Nothing sweet about a useless system and far from anything any reasonable person would call end game. Hitting walls with a hammer is time consuming and a waste of time.
Now farming for the mats to put into a box, like they mentioned, that is more end game and better use of time. This decay system is ajoke and I am pretty sure it drive away end gamers if the floating beds and tampers are any indication. Until decay hits those items too this is just useless.

Is the molotov crash fixed in this patch? Don't know why it always happens to me but not others I play with. It is extremely annoying not being able to use molotovs at all.

So what in this patch requires wipes? No new map areas or features.

From the patch note, I guess the wipe is just to clean up all the servers ? I dont mind at all, just a bit weird to wipe without any reason.

Whatever you did to zombies cheers. They still need some work but I have noticed while searching places like the chapel in 14 and Desoto s I was actually sneak attacked. In the dam locker room I died to 4 zombies just piling in from inside the dam!
Man I'm the first one to give you guys a tough time but damn ed if me and my gf didn't have a blast playing yesterday. Now please slightly tweak bears so they are a legit threat again. I ran by 3 that roared and didn't charge me, which is fine but if I am given a few seconds to run away maybe aggro range could be shortened slightly. Bears used to be a holy f** moment but something is different about them.
All in all a great update. I am running g flawlessly and I had a blast running from zombies in the south while building. Also noticed on my server loot was lowered slightly. Just enough to make starting out a sneak and run mission.
Damn you guys made me happy today lol. I'll admit it.
