So I found this video which highlights several things coming up in 0.61. The lighting engine, notice the shadows from the chemlight. Also, the zombies and AI. Wolves seem equally as impressive. Lots of folks are going to need our help!

Official Uniform of the Hostile Environment Relief Organization
We will begin stocking uniform parts in the base so that we have extras for missions. The uniform will only be required during mission meetups, but you are welcome to sport it any time!
REQUIRED PARTS:
- OREL Police Uniform Pants
- YELLOW Armband
- NO FACE COVERINGS
OPTIONAL PARTS:
- OREL Police Uniform Jacket
- PRESS Vest
- Cowboy Hat
- Sunglasses
The optional parts allow members the flexibility to have their own protective headgear, larger slotted jacket or raincoat, different vest for more slots, etc.
HEROs for hire is in business!
Exciting stuff going forward for HERO! The vote has passed this week so I will change our advertising from “looking for members” to “need help surviving?” type posts. Other survivors that are looking to join our cause and provide a HERO type service should naturally find us through this advertising.
Please see the HERO Chat page for details on how this will work. Also please hang out in the HERO Chat while you are playing if you are interested in providing HERO services to the public!
If you are a HERO responding to help requests, you are running the mission and call the shots, not the person requesting help. I would recommend following the safety recommendations in this Field Manual update.

Rewarding Heroic Deeds
This community is founded on good people doing great things and we would like to encourage this behavior to continue even when there are not official meetups happening!
For the month of April, we would like to see some heroic deeds being done. These can be missions run with multiple people or solo acts of heroism.
Post the story of your experiences and screenshots in HERO Legends with the proper format and we will take a vote at the end of the month for the most heroic acts! Quality or quantity will be determined by the voters. Going forward we will continue to have monthly votes for an MVP based off of HERO Legends votes.
To kick it off this month, Missbehaving and I have come up with a small pool of $50 for the winners that will be broken up as follows:
1st place – $20 + MVP status
2nd place – $15
3rd place – $10
4th place – $5
I’m looking forward to the great stories that come out of our DayZ experiences!
Seeking new campgrounds
As we have mentioned, Missbehaving and I will be traveling this weekend and will be gone for a week over the Thanksgiving holiday. Missbehaving has diligently been searching for tents on both first and third person characters this past week.
If you guys would like to scout out some campground sites, we can deploy the THREE tents on 3rd person that she found and begin stocking them when we return from our trip.
We can keep the same campsite location also if you all would like. Just let us know when we get back. Also do not post the location here, this information is publicly visible! Mark your suggestions on the iZurvive HERO map.
Happy Thanksgiving all!
Our internet sucks…
With our first snow of the year, it looks like our internet connection is going to be really bad while the snow is on the ground. This makes DayZ unplayable, even with our hack workarounds we were using.
I encourage you all to continue grouping up and deputizing folks that you come across. We will be present, and maybe even in Mumble, but probably not in game for a while. I will still facilitate the public finding us through advertising as well as adding new HEROs to our roster as they find us.
Missbehaving says she is able to play during the day time when no one is home just fine though, so look for her during the day.
