Hello everyone, long time no see! We have another update for you and a special announcement! We also focused on a lot of long awaited issues and server optimizations so make sure you check out the bug fixes column as well! So kick back, relax and enjoy!


To start off we have a new weapon making an appearance on the island! The Vintóvka Snáyperskaya Spetsiálnaya or VSS "Vintorez" is the big older brother of the AS Val. Chambered in the same 9x39 caliber round the VSS is a more stable and accurate sibling of the two. But it also takes up more of your inventory space since the stock is not foldable. So if you are taking accurate shots, which you cannot pinpoint where from, you know that the VSS is smiling at you.





Introducing new smoke grenades, now in more colors! Use them for concealment, use them for signals, use them as distraction or use them however else you like. These are a great tool for squads, alliances or RP servers. Enjoy!





We also included an item that a lot of you have desired and asked for a very long time! New millitary holsters are in! For all you super cool tactical operator operators out there, you can now die in style!







We added a new POI to the D0 sector. New millitary barracks have been set up with tons of high end loot, yet still fitting into that wild abandoned theme.
















Now let's announce what you already read in the title: you all requested it and we are here to deliver. If you want to spend a couple of extra bucks to support the development of the game, we are now offering Supporter pack#2!

So let's get to the meat and potatoes of the pack:

• Let's start with the headliner, dance emotes.
  
  Whether you want to show off your moves in one of our VIP night clubs or add insult to injury on that satisfying kill? The new dance emotes are here to make that dream happen. Show of your moves with brand new dance emotes!

• Ever wanted to have some music playing while you get to that next POI and decided to walk? Maybe you have some wood to gather to upgrade your base walls and want to fill that empty space with our amazing radio stations? Personal Music player is now available as software update for your personal BCU.
  Whether you enjoy the radio or, and yes it is possible, want to add your own: you are now able to have soundtrack wherever you go.

The controls for the music player are as follows:

• J - (Play / Pause)
  
• CTRL + J - (Turn on / Turn off)
  
• ALT + J - (Switch bettwen radio / music player)
  
• U (Shuffle) - (It can be enabled on the radio also but doesn't have any effect on it)

• K - (Music player Previous song / Radio previous radio station)
  
• L - (Music player Next song / Radio next radio station)
  
• PAGE UP - (Turn up the volume)
  
• PAGE DOWN - (Turn down the volume)

You can also control it through the TAB circular menu:



And if you want you can enable the UI for the music player in the menu so it shows you which song is playing and, in the case of the radio, which station:





To add your own music to the music player, you can do so by adding files to the C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam\\steamapps\common\\SCUM\\SCUM\\Music folder. Only .wav and .flac typo of files are supported.

• A popular feature that will allow all of you creative people to utilize our beautiful island for creative screenshots. Complemented with free look camera, different settings and poses. It even works in the multiplayer with your squadmates!

We know there are a lot of art freaks within our community and we cannot wait to see what you will do with this tool. Here are some of the examples what can be done:

Bohemia Interactive & Savage Game Design

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is Arma 3 Creator DLC?
  Creator DLC is a label for original Arma 3 projects made by third-party developers and published by Bohemia Interactive. This program enables external talent to earn a financial reward for their work, while players get to enjoy more new quality content. For more information, please visit the Arma 3 website[arma3.com].
  
• Why is Creator DLC optional to install?
  We have decided to make it optional to have the Creator DLC data installed. This is mainly to avoid regular Arma 3 installations from requiring a lot more additional hard-drive storage, even for those who have not purchased Creator DLC. The second reason is that a Creator DLC's theme or setting might be very different from regular Arma 3 and not everyone might want it to be visible in their game.
  
• How do I launch S.O.G. Prairie Fire?
  You will need to visit the DLC section in the Arma 3 Launcher, make sure S.O.G. Prairie Fire is owned and loaded, then launch the game by clicking the PLAY button.
  
• Can I still play together with people who do not own the DLC in multiplayer?
  To enable non-owners to still play on multiplayer servers that make use of S.O.G. Prairie Fire content, Savage Game Design has published a "compatibility data for non-owners" via the Steam Workshop. Be aware that access to the DLC's premium Cam Lao Nam terrain, campaign, and singleplayer scenarios remain exclusive to owners of the DLC. Restrictions to the use of non-owned content also apply.
  
• What does "S.O.G." in S.O.G. Prairie Fire stand for?
  The name S.O.G. Prairie Fire refers to the "Military Assistance Command, Vietnam – Studies and Observations Group" (MACV-SOG), which was a United States Special Forces unit established in 1964 to conduct covert operations in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. This task force plays a central role in the DLC's multiplayer co-op campaign. Savage Game Design has been closely collaborating with US Special Forces veterans who served in MACV-SOG until it was deactivated in 1972, as well as with Vietnamese advisors.

Livonia is the DLC map for DayZ, allowing players to experience the hardcore survival hit in a whole new environment. Up to 60 players on a server will be tasked with a single goal: survive this new unfamiliar land for as long as possible, by any means necessary.

Key Features
New massive world to explore. At 163 km², Livonia is big enough to provide you with hours of exploration as you learn the lay of the land. Its varied landscapes and numerous landmarks provide an abundance of places for players to take shelter, build a base, and hide from both the infected and other survivors.

Idyllic environment. This Eastern European terrain covers the southern Topolin-Nadbór region of the larger Polish-speaking country of Livonia. The new topography brings lush green landscapes, dense forests, overgrown fields, winding rivers, serene lakes, murky swamps, an array of dilapidated structures, and various remnants of an abandoned society.

Frequent Encounters. The new map is the perfect size for survivors looking for player interactions. Whether friendly or hostile, you'll stumble upon other players much more often in Livonia.

Fresh hunting ground. Livonia's food supply is scarce, and players wanting to survive will have to quickly learn how to forage, fish, and hunt in this new wilderness to keep from starving. Luckily, Livonia is home to a plethora of wildlife for survivors to live off. But beware: alongside this delicious fauna a new threat roams the post-apocalyptic world of DayZ, and it comes in the form of the Eurasian Brown Bear. Watch out!

Erratic weather. The temperate late-summer climate of Livonia, although usually quite pleasant, brings frequent rainfall and severe thunderstorms. This unpredictable and relentless weather will pose an additional challenge for survivors, as you’ll have to keep a keen eye open for protective gear and shelter to shield yourself from the unforgiving elements.

Notes from a survivor

I have lost track of time. Judging by the loud crackling of the fire and the occasional creepy cackle at night, I’m guessing it’s the end of April. Maybe nostalgia is starting to creep in. I do miss the kinder Chernarussian days when we would drive out to the countryside and celebrate this time of year by dancing to music around a bonfire. Adults would dress up as witches and wizards; children would get their faces painted. I remember one time when my idiot of a brother tried to barbecue while drunk and nearly caused a forest fire. Thank God for that fire safety officer. Speaking of forests, I’ve noticed these intense flickers of fire at the edge of the woods, up the hill across from my current camp. It’s too bright to be another camp but not bright enough to be a large base. I do see some infected walking in that direction though. I’ve been debating whether I should go over there, and I have to admit that my curiosity is starting to get the better of me. Maybe I’ll check it out in a week or so when I move on from here.

A Walpurgis historian's overview

Night of the Witches (Čarodejnice in Czech) is celebrated on the night of April 30th and during the day on May 1st. This popular event is meant to commemorate Saint Walpurga, an 8th century abbess in Francia, who battled against rabies, pestilence, whooping cough - even witchcraft. Citizens used to celebrate her during the modern days by building a large bonfire and having parties around it. A figure of a witch would be placed on top of the fire to signify the “burning of the witch.” Of course, since large fires were potential fire hazards during that time, local firefighters would be deployed to the event for safety.

Something new to look out for

In Chernarus (resembling the culture of the Czech Republic) and Livonia, this is celebrated by large bonfires put up by each village
In modern days, local firefighters are present to ensure the safety of the fires (nowadays they might be considered an additional hazard)
Around the bonfires, you will be able to find items of local witches
List of items:
Structure: Bonfire
Cauldron
Witch Hat
Witch Hood
Birch Broom
Crooked Nose

See you there Survivor!

Hello hello, we have another small fix for you. 2 changes incoming.

• Potential fix for the connection lost issue.

• Added and fixed a new video setting Texture memory.

Texture memory is a bit important so listen up:

This determines how much memory your graphics card has to load in textures in higher quality so set it up accordingly.

• Low 1 GB
  
• Medium 2 GB
  
• High 3 GB
  
• Epic 4 GB

So if you have a lower end graphics card with let's say 2-3 GB of memory available pick the Low setting, as for mid range and higher end ones see which one works best for you accordingly.

Hello survivors!

We’re excited to announce that game update 1.12 has been released on Steam! Before we dive into the contents of the update, we’d like to take a moment to thank everyone on PC for participating in the experimental phase. This update offers plenty of changes in the game and your feedback during the experimental phase was very important to us. If you’re interested in a detailed rundown of the changes we made, head on over to the changelog forum posts (Link below) . And if you encounter any issues, we’d love it if you let us know via the Feedback Tracker. Now let’s take a look at what’s been changed and added!

We start with the most important part of the update - changes to player vs infected and player vs player combat. The scope of these is far beyond anything we’ve done before. Here’s a quick summary:

Infected are deadlier up close due to the increased frequency of their attacks and higher resistance against damage from melee. To counter their attacks up close, players need to use heavier weapons when trying to stun them. Their senses were tweaked in a way that makes them slower to react to nearby noises, making a stealth approach and stealth kills more viable. Infected are also more likely to leave their target alone if they lose it and they won’t attack unconscious players anymore.

A massive balancing pass was done over existing firearms, making them more diverse while keeping rarity in the world in mind. This primarily includes a focus on non-automatic rifles being stronger and more precise than automatic ones. We also overhauled the audibility so smaller caliber weapons are harder to hear from a distance.

The diversification of firearms also affects ammunition properties, which means we paid attention to damage to health, as well as shock differences between individual ammo types. This was also coupled with a major buff to protective gear with ballistic properties (selected helmets and vests), which now protects players a lot more from incoming damage to health and allows for more firefights to end in an unconscious state rather than instant death. - Read more from our article:
