Christoffer.s

so, had 24 hours played rl with my character and killed countless of zombies and sadly 1 player twice seeing that he attacked my crew twice. I am one of those ppl that rather help instead of killing another player but if they attack what can you do.. Currently searching for a tent to set up base but haven't find one yet, I have tons of 00bucks and .22 ammo so if anyone needs that my ingame nick is christoffer. I would easily trade some weapons or gear for a tent if anyone is interested? Edit: oh crap! thought this was the thread "how was your dayz", *sigh* oh well

well don't quote me on this but as far as i gathered it seems that if you go back to the same kinda server your old character loads as you left him so my guess is that you played on a hardcore or privat server then went back to public were you left your old character. I took for granted as well that this was some bug but it seems like i didn't understand how things work yet.. Been playing on 5 different servers today and i managed to log into my "first" character every time as long as i choose a server that had the same properties.

Hey man :) I reckon you are having the same problems as i had and apparently it just boils down to wich servers you are using. Read this thread,http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/207737-changing-servers/

I hear you guys but it feels a bit wrong to get killed just to be at another spawn point "the cards have been given so to say", i bet my current "first" character have run 3 marathons so far. I've been in the southwest corner and are currently on the northeast. Sure its a long run from time to time but i don't mind really, rather that then begging to get killed. It kinda ruins the illusion for me that i'm trying to survive even if its only in a game.

So i kept me first guy alive for 15 hours real time game time now and so far i had 3 player interactions, the first guy stumbled upon me when i was looking thru a barn and he instantly yelled friendly and before i could respond he ran full speed out of there over the field :| . Today i met 2 more peeps one up north by rify, looked like a fresh spawn and he told me to kill him so he could respawn in another area? I kindly refused seeing that there were 3 zombies closing onto him anyway so i guess he got what he wanted and i also got a distraction for the zombies. Then i finally met up with two friends in Novodmitrovsk and there we found player nr three that yet again told me to shoot him "wtf" then he started punching my friend so we took him out, 2 min later the same guy came and started the same routine yet again and we took him out "yet again" then ran from the city and logged off. Now to the question, why have two outta three players asked me to kill them so far? I saw in the history after we logged off that we were on a "friendly" server so ive been thinking that maybe they are just trolls trying to bait for a ban? I have no idea what they were up to otherwise

Thx mate, im pretty sure i wouldn't click on a private "because private sounds like it would be private" server but i can't be certain if i did or not. Either Way it was great info that those spawns a new character, gona start to write down which servers i'm playing on then. I thought that it automatically saved the one you were last on but this is not the case then? Also i saw a yt video that explained that the server type dayZ was night servers and dayz server are daytime is this how it works or was the guy wearing too much tinfoil? Cred that the mods are actually actively involved in these forums :) I'm a member of many game forums and most of them have mods that dont post but only lock threads.

Sorry to necro this thread, but instead of starting a new one i will write in this "i hope this is how you do it on this forum". I started playing yesterday for a few hours and got me a rifle and a gun and the essentials then i logged off, now today i went into random server "persistence on as the old one" and i started all over on the beach with nothing so i just thought that it was a bug/glitch but i died pretty quickly and choose another server again and there i was with my old equipment. Now i kept this first bloke alive for about 8 hours i reckon and have started to kit him up quite nicely and im just afraid that it will lose everything the next time i log in. Is there a solution for this problem yet or am i just doing something wrong? Both server that worked so far was nighttime persistent on and public, the server that took everything away from me had the same but was daytime and surely you should be able to jump between daytime/nighttime ay? and oh yea, all three of them were in 1st and 3rd view. Again sorry if the necro thing is frowned upon but if you don't test you don't know right. Thanks in advance survivors Edit: thinking about it, i might have logged off before i died on this "fresh spawn i got" i can't remember but i might have switched servers before she died "yea i was a girl named christoffer... Anywho don't know if that extra info is to any help

Hello folks :) I'm a swede and the name is christoffer, been thinking of buying this game for quite a while now and today i downloaded it and im glad i did :) Survived my first day, after just 1 min in that wasteland i had to kill a zombie with a broomstick "pretty sure it would have been faster with fists". Otherwise its been a quite calm night, reading thru the forums and watching probably a hundred yt vids about this game have surely helped me a lot. Been alive for 3 hours now and got a gun with two mags and a bolt action without ammo, a pair of handcuffs and a complete map over "i dont even know what the world is called :rolleyes: " One question tho, is there a way to see if a server is daytime or nighttime? been on three so far and all of them have been night. Doesn't really bother me but the variation of a daytime server would be nice. I'm usually a pretty social guy but in this game i have to say that i keep the players on a safe distance, did follow a guy for about 15min just to see what he was doing and if he was a friendly or not but couldn't really tell and if i am this afraid of taking contact in the early stages im thinking that i will be even less eager to do so when i gathered a decent kit. Either way i'm happy i finally bought this game seeing that it have been an exciting time so far.
