Reality, Everything is back to normal. Thanks a ton for your help, was surprised to see it fixed so quickly.

Was on there earlier and all previous tents/vehicles were gone (not just mine). Not sure if this means they've all been deleted due to a possible server issue, but I've read that it might just be a (HIVE?) issue that can be fixed with a server restart. Wish there was a way to contact server admins directly as opposed to resorting to the general server discussion, but hopefully this gets some attention.

It's true that TPV can be used to "cheat" in that it allows a player to spot an enemy without ever exposing himself. Because of this, it's obvious why many are against its use in DayZ. That said, when I'm running 5,000 meters with a couple of friends, it's much, much more pleasing to use third person. Running long distances in 1P just gives you a headache, and personally I find it pretty cool to watch yourself (in 3rd person) run alongside teammates with the sun to your backs. And, while TPV is enjoyable, crosshairs and nametags really need to be disabled even on regular servers. Those have absolutely no place in a game like this.

Managed to get past loading earlier, but would either get stuck at waiting for server, waiting for character, or - the one time I got through - in debug forest. Now back to the loading wall, sent my .rpt file in a minute ago.

Just found this today, great host and a really cool concept. Should be stickied, would be absolutely amazing to have a useful radio station (with good music to boot). Edit: Do you think you could get announcements and song titles to display in the stream? Would be a nice addition if it's not too big of a hassle.

Bumping this as per the thread in the Support section. Have been stuck at Loading ever since the new patch hit. First time I managed to connect but was stuck in an ocean, second time I spawned in but was invisible and had no weapon, unable to move. Now every server just locks up at "Loading". Hope this gets fixed.
