    All Tents Wiped?

    The easiest way I've found is the three feed shacks NW of Balota. Check those three and rinse and repeat.

    All Tents Wiped?

    Long time lurker, first new topic (I think). Here's my feedback tracker explaining the issue: http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=15893 "My group was finally able to find a tent and place it in what we believed to be a secure spot. The tent was there for 3 full days. We checked it multiple times per day to ensure that we hadn't been raided. 1) We noticed that Backpack Inception is now possible again (I opened a separate tracker for this). However, we put about 5 backpacks inception-style into the tent. When we returned after the first server reset, it had duplicated each layer individually inside of the inception-backpack (e.g. If the top layer is 5 with 4 backpacks inside, it would spawn a layer 5 backpack with 4 backpacks inside. Then, it spawned a layer 4 backpack with 3 backpacks inside, etc.) 2) The tent is now completely missing. I noticed the duplication and removed all items from the backpacks. I then threw a ton (50+) empty backpacks into a field in hopes that they would disappear. While I was doing this, my bandwidth was over 6000 and I was consistently receiving "damdifino is losing connection" and "No message received for xx seconds" but never truly lost connection. Once I fixed all the spare / inception-created backpacks, this resolved itself. We logged on today to find the tent completely missing." So I follow the Dev tracker quite a bit and saw that this Dev posted on reddit about Official Servers Unable to Restart. After posting my feedback tracker, I searched the user on reddit and found this: [–]eugenhartonBuild & Environment Engineer [score hidden] 6 minutes agoOkay so to clear some of the confusion, an issue cropped up making servers unable to start. This issue is caused by how the server state was saved. We fixed it today on internal build. One of the reasons to why we rolled only on some of the servers rather than the whole pool. We already are planning a backup system for all shards, again another reason for the delay of deployment across all servers. That is including private shards in the future. Anyways, the data was gathered, analyzed and we found a solution. This exact issue should not happen again. I`m sorry if this hit your saved gear. But this is exactly why we only rolled on some of the servers. Since the game is a whole different beast even after being tested on experimental. permalink So here are my questions: 1) If you just wiped everyone's tents, wouldn't that warrant a real post? I know it's alpha (inb4 all the flame), but I feel that some communication using the official communication channels (i.e. not reddit) is in order. We understand it is alpha and we expect to lose our stuff - which is the #1 rule in DayZ anyway - but don't make me dig for the answer when the Devs did it. 2) Why wasn't this post on the Dev Tracker on the forums? (I'm not sure how it is done. Is it manually updated?) Hopefully this will serve as some good information for someone out there.

    Tents? No tents.

    Can confirm that I found one in a feed shack. Had searched 80-100 before finding one. Rare but they exist. If you look near balota there are three possible spawns within a short distance.

    Unconscious time?

    Or at least give me some indication whether I'm ever going to wake up. If I'm never going to wake up and I'm solo, there's no point waiting 30 mins hoping I wake up.

    Drinking Not Functioning?

    At least I'm not the only one. I'll see if anyone else confirms and I guess I should submit the bug?

    Drinking Not Functioning?

    Last night I spawned in as a new character after the wipe. I was fortunate enough to spawn near a pond so I began drinking and planned to do so until I got the green "Well Fed" message. My character did not have yellow thirst when I spawned in, so I wasn't able to get the "Your Thirst is Quenched (etc.)" message. I literally kept drinking for at least 20 minutes and never received the "Well Fed" message. Just in case I wasn't waiting long enough, I started counting about 20 seconds after clicking "Drink Water" before I would do it again. I understand that there is no animation or sound feedback for this currently, but I did notice that if I started drinking when I was standing, my character would crouch down when I clicked "Drink Water." Even after going very slowly and drinking tons of times, I never got the "Well Fed" message and eventually gave up. Am I possibly doing something wrong or is anyone else experiencing this?

    every server is dark

    I'm on US Central Time and last night I jumped on a server around 9 p.m. and it was daylight. Not sure what server but it was a U.S. server and by the look of the sun it was approximately mid day. Must have something to do with this. +1

    Most Memorable Moment Thus Far?

    There was this time when it was night and I couldn't see anything. Oh wait...

    every server is dark

    I'm in the same boat as many people. I work all day and typically get to play between 9pm - 12am so I will only get to experience night time. I think a shorter day/night cycle is a great idea (2-4 hours per day & night).
