My backpack with quite a lot of good stuff in it had despawned by the time my long run from Svet to Myshkino was over :( Nonetheless. Have: Mil tent (P) Cooking pot (P) Frying Pan (P) Mosin with 5 rnd clip (P) AKM 30 mag (P, full) More mil tents are probably do-able. Seeking: M4 Mags (40 or 60 only please) M4 attachments (ideally MagPul, and ACOG, ideally P) 1911 mags

Or, if you have the opportunity and you're feeling an adventurous, take a syringe full of whatever's in those little bottles you find at medical sites. I thought I heard it was better and/or faster than oral antibiotics, but we all need a willing victim volunteer to test the hypothesis.

Just traded with LeoShanna19 and, by extension, Red_Ensign. Very straightforward, all went well, would recommend.
-
I heartily sympathise. I nearly died more than once last night, on what I though would be a carefree drive from Myshkino to the other side of the map. If the party I'm trading with does not turn up I will be a very grumpy bunny indeed.
-
Sigh.

Yesteday I had a tent in a very obscure part of the map disappear. It had nothing in it, and to get to it anyone would have had to have walked past a much more obviously placed tent which did not disappear. Sadly I had to make it disappear thereafter to replace mine, obviously... What I'm wondering is whether tents that don't have anything in them (as mine didn't) are more likely to decay/disappear?
-
OP's point is a good one, and well made. I've had almost exactly the same experiences recently. Last Wednesday, while there was no game-wide persistence wipe, a lot of servers (eg Vilayer?) were wiped, including two that had stashes of mine. Similarly, a lot of servers either just lock up (stuck at a particular time of day, often 09.20) or fail to connect at all. While everyone focuses on the game mechanics, sorting bugs, content, etc, this dynamic of how the servers operate and the incentives within that seems to me a little unconsidered - especially around persistence.
-
Just trying to find a server that works, or that I'm not going to be kicked from, or that isn't going to kick me because my name includes the characters {(& or *, is what generally induces my rage. That, and tents disappearing.
-
The only one I've seen in 0.55 was, very randomly, in the central loot economy (before it was rolled back to .54 version) in a tent. Your best bet is probably to find a lootgasm barracks.
-
Although there's a bit of a drought hitting Chernarus at the moment, so you'll have to manually water your crops with canteen, etc. Also, gardens don't seem to persist (or not for me anyway...)

We found a 14 military tent base...
Mookie (original) replied to Vandochka's topic in General Discussion
Well, unless you're looking for an empty backpack that is... I did glimpse a 101 mag, but couldn't find it again (server is perma-night). And yeah, if you find a loaded camp, you're much, much better off keeping it to yourself. -
Have 2 x AK74 mags, full (P) Military tent (I think it's W) Seeking: M4 or AK101 with mags.

Lootsplosion science and the unfortunate encounter with "The Freeman",
Mookie (original) replied to ☣BioHaze☣'s topic in General Discussion
The DA might agree, but the President might not. -
I died, horribly, a few days ago. It turns out sad people still camp crash sites... But my two mil tents should still be there, in which case: Have: Large Military tent x 2 (w) Complete plate carrier vest, with pouches and holster x 3 (p) M9A1 bayonet for M4 (p) Gorka helmet (p), with visor (w) Ballistic helmet, green (p) Longhorn (p) CR527 (camo painted) with two 5 rnd mags (p) PU scope (w) Fire axe (p) SMERSH backpack (p) Amphibia mags x 2, full (p) Dallas masks x 2 (p) CR75 mags x 4, full (p) Magnum with speedloader (p) Pistol flashlight (p) Field shovel (p) Leather repair kits (p) Seeking: M4 + mags I will trade all of the above, including both the tents, for an M4 and two mags of 30rnds or above.

Updating. Now have three pristine plate vests.
-
I've had my first experience of this recently. It's a little nerve wracking at first, so I take the high value items out of my backpack and put them in my vest/clothing just in case. Backpacks seem to last persist well, at least over a single restart or two. I feel pretty confident about it these days and have my second-ever camp going with two mil tents. That's 500 (or more?) inventory slots... :)
-

4:03 Steyr AUG...

Whoever killed me at Vybor jail building last week must have though he'd hit the jackpot. Just getting back into the game and trying to survive. If anyone has a spare M4 and couple of mags lying around, please let me know :) I do actually have a landmine if that's any good to anyone.

Any info on the 24 hour cycle bug?
Mookie (original) replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Agree completely. Means the game is biased away from full time workers and those with families. -
Any info on the 24 hour cycle bug?
Mookie (original) replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I think what he might mean is that a very high proportion of servers (at least here in the UK) are defaulting to a complete 24 hour day/night cycle, so that most of them will all be at the same time. -
It's the 15th today isn't it? So regular Weds maintenance?
-
I've actually got two tents that are persisting now, so things are looking up a little. I should have found a spot closer to a water source though. I have tents on one server, trucks on another, which is pretty dysfunctional. Yesterday I found a jeep wreck with a PSO-1 and other AK things in it (which was nice). I'm waiting to trade with someone new to me, but looks like they've gone to bed. This evening, I can't really see the point in running around scavenging and getting hungry and thirsty to no end.

Towns should be FULL of junk loot and very few usable loot
Mookie (original) replied to andrestor's topic in General Discussion
In Russia, book writes you. Also, this isn't really set in Russia. -
