DayZ, the multiplayer-only game by Bohemia Interactive, received an important update yesterday. The patch went live on PC and brought several bug fixes and changes. It also implemented a couple of fixes on the server.
Steam Achievements should now properly work, and players can’t crawl up steep slopes anymore. The model of the M1025 engine has been updated and the amount of glowplugs in the world has been reduced. Damage taken by blowtorch when used also saw a reduction
The vehicle horn can’t be used in the pause menu anymore, and glitching through base-building objects is fixed. The hilarious bug where changing stances near objects will cause the player to launch in the air is now resolved.
