We have a few fixes coming in tomorrow morning. Mainly they are addressing the issues with the stairs and ground tampers.

On Friday morning at 5AM because of database maintenance we will be performing a full server and player wipe. Sorry for the inconvenience this might cause but the game should be really solid and smooth for the weekend. If you would like to try out the fixes for the stairs, you can find them on the Test Server right now.

Everything else is looking good for our publish next Tuesday 6/16. Check out the Roadmap to see what's coming down the line.

We are aiming for week after next. Might be released in parts (snow needs some work). Can't guarantee the date, but that's what we're shooting for and we're pretty hopeful.

AKs coming soon @H1Z1game #h1z1dev

We just updated the Roadmap for June. You can see the full list here: h1z1.com/roadmap

These dates aren't set in stone. We do our absolute best to hold to the dates we set but sometimes things come up, it's the nature of game development.

As always, these are just the big beats for each patch. We will continue to fix bugs and polish what is already in the game.

Source

The servers will be coming offline a few hours later than normal tomorrow. We wanted to get things onto the Test Server tonight and let you bang on them some before we patch to Live. Again, we wish we could have gotten these all on Test earlier but it's not how it worked out this week.

Servers will be coming down at 12:00pm (noon) Pacific time for the regular two hours. A few things didn't make it into this patch that were on the Roadmap and those things will get pushed to later in the month.

Patch Notes:

• The Magnum and .44 Magnum ammo can now be found in the game along with Battle Royale and Hardcore Battle Royale.
  EDIT: Known issue - Magnum ammo not spawning in Battle Royale
  
• Added a recipe to create Magnum ammo and the ability to melt it down in the furnace.
  
• Tear gas grenades are now available. When thrown they will create a cloud of gas that will obscure vision, cause coughing, and do a small amount of damage. If you are wearing a full face respirator the gas will not affect you.
  
• Large structure can now be picked back up
  
• Abandoned bases with nothing on them will expire after an hour
  
• There is now a key binding set for "Walking"
  
• Hardcore BR spawning is more distributed
  
• Zombie vision/night vision effects are cleared when leaving servers
  
• Dew collectors will now automatically fill up to five bottles of water at the same time
  
• The crossbow will no longer automatically reload in ironsights. To begin automatically reloading release ironsights. As a result of this change, you will no longer get stuck in crossbow ironsights.
  
• Drinking coffee will correctly return an empty bottle to your inventory again
  
• Repair Kits will now properly repair all weapons

Patch Notes:

Hardcore Battle Royale Improvements
Hardcore BR now includes zombies, bears and night vision goggles. Reduced minimum starting players to 64. The match can now take place at night and includes a Hardcore Elite Bag containing new unique items.
A list of known issues with Hardcore BR:

• Icon missing from new elite bag
  
• Currently there are no doors
  
• Currently there are no vehicles or compass, this is intended for testing as we want to see how it effects the gameplay of hardcore mode
