I wanna say a few months back there was a rule or something (cant think of the right word) implemented in the game that if you hide/save anything outside of the normal map(what smasht_Au showed the pic of), that if it goes unchecked for X time that it will despawn. I cant remember the exact time limit and if it applies to vehicles and tents or just vehicles. So since then i havent ever hide anything past that black border, let alone travel past it. Know i still look for anything past it if i can see that far. But most of the time i find everything below that line. Good luck.

Ive found a URAL at the north of the map right of the edge of the dead zone. It was on the other side of a big hill. All out in the open with a lot of barb wire around. So got in and hide it some where. And went back and ended up finding a offroad in a gully up in the north too. Hide that sweet ride, but came back later and both where gone. So some will hide in plain open site, just have to make the trek. I havent tried the west side of the map, next time im home im gonna give that a shot. Good luck man.

Im not sure about that they spawn only on the island. I was just south west of Pobeda(spelling map got to blurry read properly) Dam and just north of Gvozdno. It needed repairs but the guns worked. Something in red some in yellow. Also was empty of gear. And was just sitting in an open field. I was tempted to fly it but i think i read some where that you dont fly choppers unless they are all in the green so i didnt want to take a chance. But now that i know it easy to re-gear minus NVGs I would of flown the thing and repaired it. Which i tried doing but by the time i got back up there it was gone. So yeah it might spawn in other location, cuz i doubt someone would just leave it out in the open like that broken or not. Im just sayin....

That was pretty good man. You may have mah beans...

Ok so a buddy of mine just told me a experience threw skype of what happened to him while driving a bus. Heres the facts: Empty server except for him and 3 or 4 other friends. All of them riding in the bus, plus the bus was holding weapons they had found on their own or already on the bus. Headed north on a paved road. Bus was fully repaired and all system were green. My friend was the driver, noticed the windshield just cracked on its own. He ask other riders if they saw it, that all confirmed they did see the crack windshield. So he got out fixed the windshield. When he got out the windshield had fixed it self some how. So he got back in the bus and went on his way. But no more then 30 seconds or so later the wind shield cracked again and the hole bus blew up. Killing 2 of the riders and leaving the other 2 with burns covering there entire body but barely alive. He said he didnt hit anything was just driving in a straight line. So my question is this. Is this part of the problem with the latest patch, could it be a hacker/scripter of some sort, could the server just be buggy some way shape or form. Any ideas or help would be great thanks. Trying to find another home/regular server, since our last one kept kicking us for some reason and all our cars and tents vanished(which i know is part of the bugs of the latest patch). So yeah thats it, thanks for any help or ideas.

Im just saw this and that the app is finally out for iOs. Wish i had seen it when i was still home and playing. But not im offshore and having trouble downloading it, due to the shit bandwith of the boat im on. But once i get it ill let you know what i think. Thanks for the hard work.

I have found multiple Mountain Dews. My character now has had one on him for over two weeks now i believe. All my other buddies have died one way or another. But i keep on truckin threw. Got close to drinking it though the other day due to looking for camps or vehicles in the north. Maybe the curse has jumped threw me to them since i have it and they dont. Not sure though.

I second this. I have a g series ASUS that i bought at bestbuy for around 1200. And havent looked back. Plays DayZ with out a problem. Plays Skyrim on highest setting i believe with out a problem. Just have to get use to the size and packin it around. Also finding a backpack to fit it locally in my town didnt happen. Had to go to amazon, which i ended up saving money there too. In the end it plays it great and even surprises my buddy with his huge desktop and all the magical wonders that it does. Was able to install a game and play dayz with only minor lag. So good luck with your descision.

Just noticed my spelling error for my title. Im not sure what i was trying to say but you all got the idea i guess....

Well it took logging out for a lil break and back in for it to work. Thanks for all your responses. Have a good day.

Was playing on a server. Needed some food so i shot an animal. Gutted it but couldnt take the raw meat. Is anyone else having this problem. Any help would be great thanks.

I keep getting kicked for the battle eye thing. But it says battle eye failed to update. Im on my normal server ive been playing on forever now. I was gone from the game for a week. what am i missing now. I did have to re-install a earlier beta to play that server is that the problem. As in the server isn't updated enough and could be the reason its completely empty of other people. Any help would be great. thanks

Id stopped in Stary also to gear there. A Compass or GPS would help too. But other then that on a low pop server just go north and find some tents and anything else you can find and re-hide it. You can shift-click on the map to help give you direction also. But head towards the top of the map easy way to find some loot. Good luck...

Well i went back to where i think i found it at and no luck. Im just gonna give up on it and find something else better. Got enough supplies on me to keep me alive in the woods. Thanks for the help though.

So was in the woods up in the north. Just made up it there with parts for a helicopter i found, that needed some parts. Well i was in my van messing with the inventory with the parts and trying not to over load the van. I had noticed at one point that when i ate some food it took a lil bit for it to disappear, but just thought it was some lag. Well I closed the gear menu and saw the "no message received" message. And i was still in the van. Now i should of not panicked but i just aborted the game properly and waited a bit to get back in the game. Now from when that's happened before I couldn't move so i figured i wouldn't be able to get out the van anyways. And since i didn't originally find the van it wasn't a big deal that it is now gone. And i got most out of it that i wanted except for a M4 SD, but still no big deal. But is the van really gone. I've been running around the hillside for an hour or two thinking that im just not at the spot i left it at. So any idea that it might pop back to where it was when i was in it. Or am i shit out of luck. Any help would be great thanks.
