This happens to me more often than you'd think. I never lose my "real" character, though.
-
There's pretty much always an explanation for what you're experiencing. I haven't had a "random" character wipe on stable since way back February or March, and that was only once.

Should Tents be tied to a particular server or not?
Tatanko replied to trev186's topic in General Discussion
Soooo you're in favor of private hives, then? -
Should Tents be tied to a particular server or not?
Tatanko replied to trev186's topic in General Discussion
I don't want any cross-server persistence at all. That's my vote. That isn't realistic at this stage of development, though... it's only an end goal. They have a lot of work to do with servers yet in the way of admin powers, customization and mod-ability (e.g. base building), etc. -
Love this screenshot! :p

So basically you think I'm a tool because I disagree with you. Flawless logic. I'm not even going to reply to the rest of your post because it was made with assumptions about my motivation in playing the game (which you couldn't possibly have any insight to). Stop pretending you know me or how I play the game, and stop attacking people who disagree with a post you made in a suggestions sub-forum on the internet. This area of the forum exists to bounce ideas around; you had one, and the community gave you feedback on it. What did you expect would happen?
-
You called the developers lazy and called them out on something that you weren't even right about. You're rude and you're incredibly ignorant.
-
Both of these things already [basically] exist in the game. There's been a defibrillator (that's how you spell it :P ) for a long time and epinephrine has the same exact effect that you're describing with adrenaline shots. http://dayz.gamepedia.com/Defibrillator http://dayz.gamepedia.com/Epinephrine Unfortunately these items only currently work on unconscious players, not dead ones. Once you're dead, you're dead -- and I think that's how the developers have intended it to be (death as 100% final). Perhaps they'll change their functionality down the line.
-
This times a million. I don't care what your motivation is to play this game, nobody wants to wait around. This line of thinking only makes sense in a shooter or strategy game based on short rounds of play, not an immersive world-roaming game like DayZ. As it is, the switch to private hives will cause occasional waits when private (or otherwise hosted) servers are down for maintenance or already full. Not very often, but how often will be entirely dependent on the owner/host. My point being: let's not add frequent downtime when there's already going to be a possibility of being prevented from playing on your favorite/primary server.

No offense taken. I did read the OP, but apparently I missed that part or ignored it in the narrow scope of answering another person's comment. My bad.
-
Of course, but it's always been that way for every item :p
-
Have you ever given guns and ammo to freshspawns?
Tatanko replied to HeroAtDay BanditAtNight's topic in General Discussion
I have given strangers an extra weapon before, but never ammo. I usually do so with the instructions, "Do not load this in my presence or you will be shot." I'm way more likely to give them something else they need though, like food or drink. -
Persistent items are disabled in stable for right now, says so right in the official 0.47 changelog. That feature will be re-added next week supposedly.
-
He credits somebody else in the initial post, and this video has been around for the better part of a month I believe.
-
In a predicament - any sure fire way to orient oneself generally towards Chernarus?
Tatanko replied to Death By Crowbar's topic in General Discussion
Very small world! My Steam ID is the same as my username (and everything else) if you want to add me. -
Can you imagine running around smacking a zombie with a rolled-up tent? :p
-
I figured! :) My initial one will be in the southwest somewhere. For sure I am picking a spot that's very out of the way, and only giving the coordinates to a select few people I can trust.
-
Stop being so defensive and actually read what he said. He said turn gamma and brightness down. "Cheating" would be turning them up to see more easily. Also, yes, flashlights are not that useful and never have been. A gas lamp is way more effective if you're actually trying to see.
-
There is no airfield in the southeast. Perhaps you mean southwest (Balota)? He would also have to know what server you play on.
-
Let's put it this way, OP: the update is totally playable if you have some patience to adjust to it. There are definitely some frustrating things introduced with this patch, but none of them are "game-breaking" and I have faith that the worst of them will be remedied with the hotfix next week.

Things I immediately noticed about today's release...
Tatanko replied to Death By Crowbar's topic in General Discussion
Interesting. Probably part of the balancing they did. I guess I'm okay with it since it skews more towards realistic now. -
Things I immediately noticed about today's release...
Tatanko replied to Death By Crowbar's topic in General Discussion
I would call that coincidence. In my 300+ hours of playing the standalone, I've come to the following conclusion: when you look for people you won't find them, when you want to be alone you will see absolutely everyone. Any particular examples? Please don't let 7.62x39 be one of them :P -
EVERY DayZ video needs a fire extinguisher saxophone!

Things I immediately noticed about today's release...
Tatanko replied to Death By Crowbar's topic in General Discussion
I don't believe heli crashes are spawning at all in stable 0.47. There was a line in the changelog about dynamic server events being disabled, and heli crashes fall into that category. -
They won't stay, no (nor will the stuff in them). Hopefully a week from now we won't need to worry about that. I really want to go look for a tent, but it almost seems pointless. It takes up a huge amount of inventory so I don't want to just carry it around, and I can't use it for its intended purpose yet :( I'll have to wait a week to start setting up my camp! I already have a spot picked out and everything.
