The Riddler (DayZ)

We are shutting down the server in 4 days. Final day it will be Active is Friday October 2nd. Thanks.

This has happened to a few server owners I know. It simply became to the point where it was not fun to play and a wipe was necessary. However, a server owner should be responsible by letting player's know a wipe is coming. If its a private community with ts, forums etc, the more the reason to let your whitelist folks know a wipe is coming that can't be avoided.

Due to lack of interest from our community, we will be shutting down this server in 5 days. When the game develop's more and we have more interest, we will fire back up this server. If you have any questions or concerns, our TS will still be running on: TS.WELCOMETOTHEJUNGLEDAYZ.COM

Thanks for being apart of the community. TS is always free to use: ts.welcometothejungledayz.com

At this point, I think it might be worth sending in a feedback tracker to the Dev's. Just so they can then channel the information to the right people at BI who can possibly enforce this GSP to set the server restart times correctly. Anybody willing to share log info from your Multiplay server to show its restarting every 4 hours? I'll be happy to file the report. If you use DART, can use DART's running log to show the proof since there is a Global message sent out prior to restart. I honestly have not figured out yet via clanforge.co.uk how to view the logs like I used to with another provider (fragnet).

Lot of people around the NW airfield the last few days.........

I have tried to set it to 12 hours via ClanForge.co.uk and it never saves and reverts back to 4 hours. Highly frustrating b/c we had a full server the other night for the first time during .58 and when it restarted nobody came back :/

Your with Multiplay Gamer Servers correct? I am as well and just yesterday with 12 players on, the server sent out a message stating it was going to restart and it did. I didn't enforce this restart and can only assume Multiplay was responsible for the restart...... EDIT: I have confirmed my server restarts every 4 hours right now. Logs show about a minute to two minutes after the hour, every four hours. Let me know if they reply back with more information. I'm about to open my own ticket with them just to see the type of response I get compared to yours. My server info is just in case you wanted to check things out compared to yours. We don't pay the extra $$ for BEC scheduling etc as we find that complete bullshit when the other providers like Fragnet do not charge for it. Welcome to the Jungle!!!

I assume it was BattleEye who kicked this player automatically? If so, its something BattleEye found with their files that was deemed "kickable". I'd just let BE do its job rather than ban them, however if you notice they keep attempting to connect and they continue to get kicked, a ban won't hurt and IMHO is within the rules of owning a DayZ server.

What a confusing response. He was getting the persistence restore information confused with a server restart. I've known for a while now you can request a backup to be implemented of your persistence data in the event something went wrong and you want to restore. Only doing that every 12 hours makes sense....... I am 99% sure our server restarted on its own with players on it last night. We had our biggest crowd yet holding 50 players all the way up until the server restarted. I can take screenshots of my logs from DART when I get home from work today to confirm this. Also I am quite sure I did a manual restart from clanforge last week and it actually restarted the server. I can go back through my logs again to double check that. We have our server setup to maintain its in game time even after a restart. Example: gametime is 14:05 ....server restarts.....server comes back up and gametime is 14:05.

Thanks for helping to fill up the server last night! This is the first time in .58 where we've reached 50 players and maintained this amount throughout the night. We are community supported public DayZ. Thanks for playing!!!

Its amazing how money trumps rules these days isn't it?

Seems to be a lot of server hoppers coming on the Jungle lately.......killed a few of you after you thought it was ok to spawn in, inside the tents of all places....silly server hoppers. Hopping is for Rabbits!!

Welcome to the Jungle is brought to you in part by players like YOU!

Welcome to the Jungle is Community Supported Public DayZ!

I have zero issues at my mini-camps with and without trucks now that I have gotten rid of all of my containers inside containers. I removed a total of 7 containers (5 ammo cans, 2 first-aid) spreading them out over a 1000M away from my initial camp and the lag went away. My mini-camp consists of 6 backpacks and 1 barrel all with mixed items from ammo to weapons and everything in between. Just food for thought as I can now drive my truck to and from my site(s) without any issues whatsoever. Can't wait for the hotfix which I hope is tomorrow on maintenance day :thumbsup: I have an m4 with a 60 round loaded mag within my barrel as well as a mosin with 5 rounds loaded. No lag with this configuration.

I can't help but become very frustrated week after week reading these reports. I have tried for the last hour to write out a well documented and well worded (non-aggressive) reply based on the prior status report's, trying to understand the direction in which development is going with this game. However I simply can't find the words without sounding like a complete asshole and that is not my intent with making this post. I'm just trying to understand so please if you must, take this with a grain of salt; I have a lot of respect for what goes into development having been apart of a software project management team, and understand that things change as software evolves from when the first few lines of code that are written. I don't have the luxury to play all the time, and I certainly don't have enough time to check out the experimental builds vs. stable from patch to patch to compare, but it just seems that development is all over the place from week to week and month to month. Why is that the case with this game? Is there staffing issues and/or turnover within the teams that prevents you all from moving forward on progress of things that have been touched on in the past? Has there ever been an internal discussion with the entire team(s) that maybe you all should stop working on delivering new content and get what you have now working correctly? Please stop hiding behind the curtain of "This game is still alpha" as an excuse for all the bugs/glitches/issues and just make the game more playable. You need a fan base to continue development and I fear you're losing too many of us with the route in which you are currently taking simply based on the performance. I for one am holding on and watching to see where things go. I don't give up on a game just b/c I don't like the development but when the game is not enjoyable due to bad frame rate, glitches, etc etc ..... its hard to continue playing. If after reading all this and you're angry with my opinion, please read this again and think about players out there who are just starting out and at the same time think of players like myself who have been around since the beginning of standalone.

While on a somewhat empty server making my way to a static chopper crash I saw a glow in the direction of what I was pretty sure was the location of the crash. As I got closer I quickly realized the glow was the lights from a Cargo Truck. My heart began to race as there had to be at least someone at the site. Not wanting to get too close I patiently waited to see shadows or silhouettes in the truck lights.........but nothing. Nobody was near the chopper. The wait was killing me and my nerves were stretched. I thought to myself "I honestly don't need anything from the chopper". So I decided not to go any closer. However I did take these screen shots and wanted to share. If anybody wants a full size image (1920 x 1080) just PM me and I'll send you a link.

My thoughts exactly. With nobody at the actual crash site, there had to be someone in the trees waiting. I wasn't about to find out though :D Thanks for the beans!

Multiplay is working with us to switch to another server.....again. We are destroying the memory on the server we're on and thus having performance issues because of it. We will be giving in game notices of the NEW IP and when we plan to swap over. We will give at least a weeks notice before we swap the server over to another machine. As always, thanks for our loyal fan base. The server is full every single day. Thank you! Regards,

We're still here. Server is usually full. Just search for Welcome the Jungle and you'll find us in the server browser. Regards,

Server IP was changed .....again. Multiplay did a great job of explaining it and even gave us a discount for the troubles. Server is out there somewhere........a lot of us are kind standing idle while in wait for the next patch or two.

Good stuff. Enjoyed that!

Slowly climbing the ranks!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH DAYZ COMMUNITY!!! Special shout out to the streamers who frequent the Jungle!!!!!!! hundredcardhero C4MINO

For me, this is really going to be a test to see if they really can squeeze out more performance b/c right now as we all know its pretty bad. I'm really going to be paying attention to these performance increases with my 50 POP server. Performance sometimes as it is now with 50 players is just a joke. I just simply have to log out and walk away from playing or find a lower pop server, but would rather play on my own server so its frustrating at times. If removing Zombies helps clear the way to better performance and overall better zed's in the long haul; SO BE IT.
