Tents? HA!! Let me tell you about tents... Our group has had about two dozen tents over the last month and a half. We invested many hours searching, acquiring, learning the intricacies to how they work, where they appear etc. I NEVER had faith in them after our first camp disappeared on a "persistent" server reset, the latest being last night. When we all got on our ''home'' camp server and noticed all the food and items we were finding, we almost all came to the same conclusion... Shit, our camp will be gone. Sure enough, after a 20 minute trek to base camp, everything was gone! We lost 7 M4s, several ACOGS and red dots, not to mention all the other non-premium weaponry anyone finds after a respawn. Three hard resets and our conclusion is to buy a spare character to bank your goodies on because TENTS DON'T WORK! Before all the questions about "did you do this" or "did you do that", I can tell you tents are easily found, we "interacted" with the storage in the tents on an almost daily basis, clothes and hi-cap vests dissapear in tents on the daily restarts but everything else stays (food, ammo, weapons, medical supplies). DayZ in it's current form, is best as stated above in a previous post, "spawn in, gear up, PvP, die, repeat"...
