Yeah this happened a lot on the server I played often, I finally got tired searching for vehicles and fixing them over and over. Imma try find myself a good 1.7.2.4 server see if its better. IMO current version of DayZ sucks due to that despawning vehicles and lost of items in tents.

I know vehicles are bugged and all, but look at the situation from my point of view. We find the helicopter, we wait the coming server restart (0300), the helicopter is STILL THERE, exactly the same position, exactly the same damage to the engine (everything else green). We repair the engine, we fuel it up, we fly it somewhere and some hours later WOOOOSH it's gone. It was not at the point from where we took it, but my buddy saw two people with a vehicle standing there. And that on a server where the admins seem to be full of themselves and even stating that they know better than everyone else and only their rules count... rules which I couldn't find anywhere. Maybe in french? I wouldn't know I don't speak french.

The idea was very epic but there was SO many flaws and glitch/bugs that caused issues... Some notes: Desyncs all over resulting in death of a few people who could do nothing. Camera man makes sounds and is visible when in vehicles. Camera man needs to not aggro and have noclip. Stream Delays. Not all players streamed sadly. One of the goody items was a Sniper Rifle, awesome for getting a close up on the artifacts glitching. Whole town ended up on "fake fire" due to heli crash. No one cared for SAWS lol. Be nice to be able to HEAR the streamers so we're aware of what they're thinking/saying/planning. We need some sort of realtime minimap display on the stream. Needs some awesome intro with mikeb's music (like over or under!! hahah) The only winner, is the Tractor.

So on my server lately we got some problem with our vehicles and tents. We (as admins) only got 1 vehicle (ATV) and it DOES save when ever the server restarts, but when updating (or when the server needs to get shut down in case of hackers) all the vehicles reset to there original position (spawn place). Is there any reason why it does this ? Is this from the latest update ? Server runing: 1.7.2.5 + new hive security update thingy

Pick specific roles? Point man, sniper, medic, engineer (vehicles and traps) Or just whatever you have on hand? Also, what is the size of your group? If you had a bigger group would you be more inclined to pick roles?

Looking for mature players to form a squad with or a clan to join either or, getting tired of looting nwaf then heading back south on a long walk to pvp. I could never trust someone i met in DayZ so this is the only way I see any good groups or teamwork being formed. Tired of walking everywhere, I check vehicle spawns everytime I play....never anything everytime i fucking check. Only been picked up once then lost connection hahah, so if your group or clan has vehicles im defiantly down to join up. Im 21 years old, live in phoenix, AZ so id be looking for a US group. Im a mean shot with a sniper rifle, also really good with a assault rifle and ruthless as fuck when it comes to killing people. I fucking trust no one I meet and id hope posting in the bandit section will help me team up with like minded survivors. Just reply here or shoot me a pm, I can download teamspeak if necessary as well just havnt needed to playing solo.

First off, I want to say i play in a group of 4 people, and we absolutely LOVE this game, and the tactical aspect of it. At the moment, we are looking for more vehicles and car parts, as owning a vehicle makes the game 10 times faster and more enjoyable then running everywhere. That being said, every time we get a vehicle (we have found A LOT), next server restart it ends up disappearing anyways. Also, our tents we put all of our gear in (a bunch of gear we value, like NVGs, and rare guns) also disappear when the server restarts, leaving us with only the items on our backs. This takes the joy and motivation to look for vehicles, if they are going to disappear in a few hours anyways. Without vehicles, the game isn't nearly as enjoyable and really, even over hackers, i think this problem should be the first priority because anyone who plays the game and spends time getting gear and vehicles, is only rewarded with it being taken away. Thank you for reading, and comment if you have anything to add, or agree with me.

That is a sure sign. Hackers are truly ruining this game. So I've moved to a private hive and the past couple of days have been the best time i've ever had in DayZ. Vehicles are plentiful yet not hacked, and people are nice enough to not shoot you on sight (most of them anyway.) And BY FAR the best thing of all. No hackers, and even when one tries to weasel his way in, the admins are always on and ready with the quick ban stick.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I am a Hero, and I play the game with 2 other buddies, and they are Heroes as well. Though my mindset is not the same as yours, I am not as selfless, not as patient, not as trusting, and not as forgiving. But I do try to avoid confrontation and help out when I can. But with so many jerks in this game, it is often best to go solo or with a group of real friends. That being said, I never see anyone as a target, unless they see me as one. If I have the advantage over someone, and they seem friendly, I am more than willing to work with people. However, as my level of gear increases, my tolerance for betting on other people's kindness decreases. For example, if me and my group are with one of our vehicles in a town, You better not be pointing a gun at me lol. But regaurdless, like I said, I try to avoid confrontation, and help when I can. I may not be the best player out there, but I try to do my part :) /shpeal/ ~Azgaurd

I manage it on the rare occasion i get shot and end up back on the coast. Sure i may have to kill the odd fool that thinks hes about to cap a noob, but i manage. The trick is mate, not to be greedy. Get a few cans of coke, a can of beans and something to defend against zombies (hatchet, sidearm or primary) and get out of there. As for your problem with loot. Wherever you are, be it military or residential. If you dont like what loot you see, pick it up and move it. Fresh loot will spawn in minutes. Just stick to it and reap the rewards. Set up a camp somewhere so you have gear to fall back on. Dont see any vehicles around ? Then trek to the far north and find them. Who knows, perhaps theres a fully fixed and fueled heli up there with your name on it.

dose not matter if someone else spawned it in you will not get banned for it only a server admin may ban you but frag grenades are not that rare either are ak rounds so its possible they are legit you will know after a server restart no hackers vehicles will survive a restart.

Same here. We've started our new DayZ Server 2 days ago, on 1.7.2.5 and latest AA2OA patch, and players reported both issues. The tent one, and salgo that vehicles won't save and reset to previous location / state. (Someone fixed a bus, and after server restart it went back to it's original location and broken).

With the tent question: Because of 1.7.2.5, most servers reset vehicles and tents every server restart.

I don't see why people get all upset about the scripters. The ones who don't thunderdome/insta-kill are helping us more than hurting us. For example, Scripter comes in, lays down tent and fills it full of goodies, then he goes and kills some people. Noob somehow finds tent, instant jackpot for him. Another example would be scripters who spawn vehicles, you kill them and you have yourself an extra vehicle. All games have "hackers", get used to it. Plus this game is a mod on ArmA II for Christ's sake, it's made for scripting. If it's such a big issue for people then don't play it until the stand-alone comes out.

I'm currently on 40 something days (as off the last time i played, about a week and a half ago, so i'll stick with 40 something, though by now its probably technically 50 something) and the only thing im guilty of that these previous posts have listed is "-Never playing alone" I always play with a friend and we generally play about 1-2 hours a day, 5 days a week (a few extra hours on thursdays as well usually), we have been on a few servers though the one we recently made our home on was actually, admittedly, quite low pop usually (20-30 people). We have driven ATV's (a LOT) and flipped them on invisible terrain (A LOT), we have been to the coast and driven a boat to skalitsky island in search of the chopper (it wasn't there) and we have encountered hackers (we killed them) we have good gear, though recently we have been unable to raid military locations due to the horrendous artifacting in those areas. as a result, over the recent weeks we have generally stayed away from danger and searched for vehicles. I have only one murder, my mate has two (though they were both hackers). We don't go to cherno or elektro, aside from the fact that its stupidly dangerous, theres not even anything good there worth risking your ass for, and we DO have fun. In short, it's not hard, just don't be a moron. I will admit we have not encountered many hackers, so perhaps we are lucky in that regard (never been teleported, for example) but other than that i think our experience is a pretty standard one, we basically don't do stuff that we think will get us killed, and we are careful when approaching towns etc.

I had a character survive for 22 days being played for around 2 to 4 hours daily. Its easy once you hit a major city and get kitted. Just head north live off the lakes and game. The most fun I had in this game was raiding player campsites with 2 buddies and fighting the owners. I know there is no chance to be friendly up there doing what I do. I'm a raider, I steal your weapons and vehicles then blow up the rest. I was eventually taken out by a hacker after finally getting a rangefinder and gps.

Me and my clan, the Balota Bean Bandits, are happy to announce the opening of our new server! Vehicles have been shifted around some due to earlier players getting there first. For the most part, they're still at the spawn points though. If any of you can point me towards some scripts or something to have in game commands, you would have my beans. I would also like to know how to set up Global Chat, if that's possible anymore.

I don't think ATVs spawn at NW airfield, but he might have had it hidden around there or it was someone else. And no, vehicles don't spawn fully repaired, hey sometimes got some parts to repair it in the gear but they don't spawn fully repaired, unless they're hacked in the game and they're not in DayZ like a tank or a jet, that sort of stuff

Hey guys, I was working on editing some of my DayZ series, when I came across a part where I find a red UAZ at its spawn in Stary Sobor. It was completely broken (all parts) and had pretty much no fuel. It led me to wonder, is it possible to find a UAZ, or any vehicle for that matter fully repaired? Thanks for your time! P.S. Do ATV's spawn at the NW airfield? I came across a guy with one, I was trailing him for some time, but lost him for a few mins, so I'm not sure if he found one, or if I saw another player.

Sorry you feel that way man. But there are some problems with your accusation. First of all. We don't have a base. Second... with the exception of the night of the heli incident we rarely have vehicles, and see no real point in obtaining them with the current hive version (Vehicles do not save well). Third... I'm no liar. I can show you clear evidence of hacking pulled from the script logs of our server. And I'm sure if I dug deep enough I could pull the logs and show that you were hacking on our server as you said you were. Seeing as you openly admitted to hacking on our server, "turned on hacks after that, and just watched them, So far they've probably restarted the server about 8 times during firefights." I'm sure you know that hacking is a real problem and is hard to combat. The second part of your accusation however just isn't true, and you know it. As I said our server tends to be low population and pretty quiet. We have yet to even get into 8 firefights while playing on it. And only two people have been banned from our server, they were banned for hacking. Apparently you were one of them. I'm sorry you feel you were banned unjustly. I can't change that. Fourth... I did not make any excuses. I simply explained my reasoning as well apologized for how my actions were interpreted. The server restart didn't really have much to do with them. We could care less about the stupid helicopter. We suspected something fishy, and if I remember correctly we were signing off for the night, so I restarted the server to prevent it from becoming bogged down over the course of the next 12 or so hours until I could get on again. If you must know. But to be honest it's really none of your business. We pay a handsome fee for the server and to be frank we can operate it the way that we want. I'll say it once again... I apologize you feel you were treated unfairly and I will do my best to make sure we handle these situations a little bit better in the future. I will not be commenting on this again. Stings2Pee and I have settled this like adults and I hope he comes back to play on our server again. As for you, I hope you can understand my side of the issue, if not that's fine as well.

I am looking for a new group of players to run with. I am very experienced with this game, but I am not looking to be the "man". I was the leader of my last group and while we were very successful (we had 8 vehicles and about 15 fully stocked tents), I'm not interested in being responsible for everything and everyone again. I'm good at just about everything in this game. I know the best ways to loot, I am a very good shot (3.0 K/D in most FPS's), and am an excellent driver. If you are the leader or a member of a small established group and are looking for experienced members to join, reply to this post with your Steam ID and tell me a little about your group. If I like what I see I will add you and we can talk further.

We parked the Ural and other vehicles as bait on Crutoy Cap :) Were you the group who took the Ural and tried to drive up the hill to the NW only to find you couldnt drive up such a steep incline? The driver got out and I shot him from 700m away with my AS50 :) Good games on the server :) Need more people to play against tho :) Im currently trying to set the in game time to GMT-6 to give us more daylight time during the servers peak times :)

i have been playing dayz for over a month now with a couple of friends. we have lots of gear, lmg's, sd's etc so do not need people to gear us up, aswell as having spare weapons and ammo (as50's etc). the things is that we like to get some action and kill other players which we do with good effect, almost always coming out on top unless they get the drop on us. but none of us are any good at sniping, and to take our pvping to the next level we want to play with more experienced players like us. also we'd like to join a clan with vehicles as they are always fun and we only have the s203 van, a motorbike, an atv and 2 old bikes. cheers for any response's

Hello! I have a question, I was in a vehicle when I got teleported, I disconnected when still in a vehicle and now when I logged in, I'm stuck in the ground. Any idéas on how I can get up? This is not the first time this has happened. How do I get up? :( Only way I know of is parking a vehicle closeby so I can get in the drivers seat, but my friends are down south without vehicles.
