I have started a character on a private server and one on a public US one. Both start with different gear. Would gear from the public save and transfer to any other public? If I chose a separate private server, would my gear be erased? Thanks in advance for the help.

Understood, Thanks.

This is perfect for a new player like me, thanks!

If I join US 1234 server and build up some gear, but decide to start playing on US 2345, will my gear carry over?

I didn't mean safe zone to be invincible. Just a place to be somewhat sheltered, a central location for groups, and possibly small storage places within. All this being able to be stolen, ransacked, etc.

I think PvP is a realistic quality of this platform, but we do need to keep the stand alone from being a FPS with some AI Zombies. I like the humanity part of the game, and think they should have more progressive levels/effect both ways.

I like the concept. We don't need minecraft-like castles, but small buildings to provide a "safe zone" would be cool.

I have only been playing a few hours, but this guide helped me a lot. http://www.dayzwiki.com/wiki/A_Beginners_Guide
