DayZ 1.11 patch notes: server wipe, fixed clipping, SVAL rifle, more

The first big DayZ update in 2021 is here, focused primarily on bug fixes and stability improvements.
DayZ 1.11 patch notes: server wipe, fixed clipping, SVAL rifle, more

DayZ developers Bohemia Interactive has just released Update 1.11 for DayZ, the first update in 2021 for the popular zombie survival title.

As explained in the blog post, which accompanies the release of the update, the primary goal of Update 1.11 is to work on bug fixing and improve the stability of the game.

The update removes annoying collision between the player’s character and infected when in a melee fight, as well as the bug when getting out of the car and randomly ending up on the car's roof.

Bohemia Interactive states that horticulture is improved as well "in a number of areas", and the bug which interrupts sea fishing should now be gone as well.

While the update is mostly tackling annoying bugs, the 1.11 patch brought some balance changes as well, mostly in regard to the number of available magazines and ammo, because apparently, the economy was "way too saturated with spare magazines and ammo boxes".

Finally, the update brings a brand new weapon to the game, a rifle called SVAL, which players can find at helicopter crash sites around Chernarus and Livonia.

"The weapon is derived from the existing VSS rifle, uses 9x39 ammo with an integral suppressor, and has been modified for close-range combat, with the added ability to attach a flashlight and universal sights," Bohemia explains. "We also added a new 20 round magazine for 9x39 ammo, which can be used with both the SVAL and VSS."

Unfortunately, the new update also means a complete server wipe, for a fresh start in 2021.
