It took me a long time to find a pers on server. On this server I found a stash of someones backpacks which gave me the assumption that persistence was on. I had about 6 full backpacks stashed on this server for a week and after wed maintenance was still there. I then lost this server and couldnt find it due to a bug in my history/favorites tabs. I went into my config files to find my server history and found the server and a week later my bags were still there. This led me to believe the server was stable with persistence so I made runs to dubky to get tents. I spent a long time and researched maps of traveled routes etc when picking my campsite. The server was low pop- usually 3-4 ppl. This server maintained persistence through wed server maintenances which is why I chose it. The server did have a bug with loot explosions in the military base and when I noticed my camp was gone- I noticed the loot explosion spawning was fixed so it was a server wipe. I had bags upon bags of loot stashed throughout the map and area and it was all gone - not just my campsite so I guarantee it wasnt looted. I wish it was as then someone at least would of got use out of my time

Well- My first time playing Dayz was on the mod about a year ago- I played for a few weeks and then got SA. SA was VERY buggy and unoptimised.... I quit playing SA and the mod... Fast foward a year to a few weeks ago.... I havnt played SA for a year so install it and expected it to be much better.... Still very buggy and unoptimized. I give it a chance and dump a huge amount of time finding 3 tents, weapons,ammo, etc... Setup a camp yada yada yada Log in today and the server was wiped with all my stuff.What a waste of time. OK- so Im here cause im thinking about trying the mod again. Has anyone here tried SA and do you feel the mod is still better? I have arma2, arrowhead, and arrowhead beta (says obsolete) What else do I need to get the mod running and why does the beta file say obsolete? I thought I remembered needing it when playing the mod
