Hutch (DayZ)

Last night was frustrating. I logged in to find I was in a completely different location from where I logged out and my backpack and hatchet were missing. I chalked it up to a bug and decided to continue on. Found another hatchet and later another packpack and a rifle. Had to logout briefly for a bio break but stayed connected to the server in the lobby screen. When I logged back in, I was in a completely different random location halfway across the map, my weapons, tools and backpack were gone again. All that was left is what was in my active inventory. Frustrated, I found another hatchet and logged out to test. Sure enough when I logged back in the hatchet was gone. Tried again a few times. Each time I appeared in a random location all over the map. Toolbelt items gone, weapon slot items gone and backpack gone. Eventually I decided to suicide and generate a new charatcer. With the new character everything seems to be working normally. I log back into the same location with stuff intact. My best guess is that my character data was corrupted somehow and wouldn't save or load correctly. Could this have to do with what server(s) I was playing on?

Um. You're not using the iron sights. Try a quick tap on the right mouse button. Then hold to zoom and steady.

It's a problem with the steam update. Happening to alot of people this morning. Look Here... http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/45202-fix-for-being-kicked/

Happened to me a couple of days ago on US #00 The hackers teleported the whole server at once and mowed everyone down with the miniguns from two choppers. A couple of us managed to get away but being on Skalisty Island what could we do? I was shot and bled out anyway. If you can't get a friend to pick you up in a boat, all you can do is take the valubles out of your backpack and go ahead and lose the pack on your swim.

Yesterday on server US #00 I was playing with a couple of friends when suddenly everyone on the server was teleported to a clearing on Skalisty island. The hackers had two helecopters landed there and used the side mounted machine guns to mow everyone down. They also threw a few grenades for good measure and had a sniper positioned to take out any runners. Honestly, how could that really be any fun for the hackers?
