In the survival MMO H1Z1 servers will be down today, May 8th, starting at 3 PM for several hours. A new patch will be deployed.
“Apply and polish,” had to say Daniel-san in Karate Kid, and exactly this wisdom from Mister Miyagi has been taken to heart by the developers of H1Z1. In recent weeks, many new features have been integrated into the game. This week, they are taking the time to polish much of it and improve the “quality of life for players”.
- The current patch aims to prevent NPCs from clipping through buildings so frequently.
- Player characters should not begin to breathe heavily while running until they are actually out of breath.
- Armor is now supposed to protect the front and back of the character models properly.
- A bug that previously kept players stuck on the loading screen is expected to be resolved.
- And grenades will also be addressed.
There are more than 30 points in the patch notes for H1Z1 of approximately this nature. As a new feature, integration with the Steam marketplace will be added, but it will not be active right away, likely not until Saturday our time, when additional tests are conducted.
The patch is set to start at 3:00 PM and last for about three hours. The H1Z1 servers should be reachable again around 6:00 PM.
