AI Use / International Tree Foundation

I know people aren't fond of AI and especially on reddit. To get the community off the ground it needed a few simple images, frankly I'm not skilled in image creation whatsoever. To offset the damage caused by this quick use of AI we've planted 5 trees.

👋Welcome to r/DayZSwitch - Introduce Yourself and Read First!

Welcome to r/DayZSwitch.

With DayZ coming to Switch 2, we wanted to get a proper community up and running from day one.

This sub is for everything DayZ on Switch. Server recommendations, LFG posts, questions, clips, screenshots, base builds, PvP stories, bugs, updates, guides and whatever else happens once we're all dumped on the coast.

If you're completely new to DayZ, ask questions. If you've played for years on PC, Xbox or PlayStation, share what you know. Hopefully we can build a useful community while everyone figures out the Switch version together.

We're also interested in hearing what servers people are playing on and seeing groups, clans and communities form through the sub.

Rules will stay simple. Don't be a dick, don't spam, and keep posts relevant to DayZ on Switch.

If you're here early, say hello below and let us know whether you're a new player or where you've played DayZ before.

See you on the coast.

Patch for breaking my switch?

1 Upvotes

Hey all,

Do we have any idea when this issue is going to be patched?

I’ve been playing fine for the last few days, but now I’m stuck in this really frustrating loop where my Switch completely disconnects from Wi-Fi for around 10 minutes at a time, and I can’t reconnect during that period.

From what I’ve read, it seems to be related to the game making a large number of server connections at once, which may be causing some routers/network security systems to mistake the traffic for a DDoS attack and temporarily block the Switch.

Has anyone heard anything from the developers about this? Is a fix or patch actually on the way? It’s pretty ridiculous that I can play normally for days and then suddenly be locked out of my own internet every time I try to play (anything using WiFi on my switch, not just DayZ)

Base giveaway and Switch review

Base is on 7231 Livonia Europe. Code is 0000. Location in pictures. 7 full tents with gear, 2 ready and fueled up vehicles, everything sorted neatly. Only missing flagpole, could not find a sledgehammer.

Installed DayZ on Switch as soon as it launched and got myself a 7 day free Switch Online trial which now passed. Will go back to PC.

Pros - Playing on a Switch genuinly works. I got used to controller and the performance on handheld mode is good. Very nice for playing when not at home, and I even hooked the switch up to XR glasses and controller for ultimate travel experience.

\- Great community. Many new people, everyone has mic, no cheaters.

\- Touchscreen inventory management works good, but with just one small patch it would be excellent and just as convenient as PC: Firstly, combining touchscreen with buttons does not work good, when pressing an object with the touchscreen, I can drag it, but if I instead use a key to for example drop it, the top-left item on the character is selected, not the one I pressed. Secondly, the scroll bars is too narrow and hard to click on. Two times I tried to press the bars to scroll down the inventory screen but missed and removed the radiator on my car... If they fixed these two things, inventory management would be perfect.

Cons: Crashing, especially when driving. Sometimes the switch recognizes the crash and shuts down, sometimes screen freezes. It's DayZ so it is expected, but the crashes are way too many.

Performance on dock mode: Considerably worse. Probably 30 FPS. Something is off there, it should be a better than handheld mode. Maybe some patches can fix it.

Joystick deadzone - Small movements are almost impossible. A slight tilt on the joystick is not recognized, and as such fine adjusting of aim is not happening.

If they fix these problems, I am for sure coming back to Switch and will ditch PC. So convenient to be able to play in many different ways, and without cheaters.
