To make the story short, butthurt admins got mad that someone found their camp, restarted the server to put their vehicles back where they were last saved at while knowing that the guy would respawn far away. guy got proof of butthurt admins abusing their admin powers. butthurt admins trying to justify by saying that they though he was hacking. the end. These admins need to man up and just accept that someone found their camp and stole their shit. You guys are going to be lucky if your server isn't blacklisted.

Same issue since the 1.7.2.5 Patch. Not only do vehicle save no more, it's also that the vehicles that got previously destroyed (Before the patch), are not respawning again. Also sometimes the HIVE switches position of random vehicles around. This is on a dedicated server, fully updated. And yeah if that isn't game breaking, then I don't know. The group I regularly play with has pretty much stopped to play, what's the point in gathering stuff if nothing saves? I hope the DayZ dev team is aware of this issue.

Stuck in loading screen since yesterday. (Not continuously) :) Respawn on the beach somewhere. 10/10 times. If i do get in... like 2 days ago. I was hacked twice within 2 hours on two different servers. Constantly loosing gear, weapons, ammo, backpacks... etc. Vehicles are rare. Hidden out of bounds or whatever. If we do find a vehicle, the server restarts or seomthing and the vehicle is no longer there!?!?! Barbed wire, tank traps, and bear traps All over. Not so much bear traps. But barbed wire EVERYWHERE is just completely annoying and nothing else. And if you do manage to play the game as intended, you get sniped or just murdered by a random. That dont need any of your shit. And thats fine. After all, it is a Zombie Appocalypse. Deal with it. Im not trolling or hating here, just asking based on observation and stories. I am fairly good at avoiding other players and move around stealthy. But sooner or later you will get killed. You cant be a 100% sure of your surroundings at ALL times. Some prob think they do, fine. Let them. But this is not an option for me to experience anymore... Gg folks, might see you in the Standalone. Peace and have fun.

It's cute that your entire post is pretty much an assumption... Meanwhile the majority of posts in this thread detail the numerous reasons ( Which you conveniently ignore ) that server hopping occurs legitimately. There are dozens of real decent reasons to hop servers, most of them due to other glitches and issues in the game that ACTUALLY need to be fixed, such as hackers, graphical errors, and then simply wanting to play with friends... Also I'm pretty sure your assumption that some sort of software is tracking and deciding whether people are being legitimate or not is pretty much complete trash. I've seen no official mention of it anywhere, and if a developer spent the time figuring out the coding for it, they would damn well announce it and be proud of it. But also because I have been on the same server for the past 12 hours since I heard that it was due to 'server hopping' and so far, with just logging into the same server, I've been ported to the coast twice. That's without getting stuck at loading and alt f4ing or any of that business. Also that's with logging in about eight or nine times over two six hour gaming sessions. Sometimes I need to log out due to important phone calls, cooking, taking a dump, or dealing with room mates. I do not Alt F4 out. All my versions are correct and I only join servers that host the same versions as I run. Also when I do log out to cook or use the washroom or any of that business, I don't relog right away... It's usually at least a five or ten minute break, so it shouldn't appear as random sketchy behavior or server hopping... So please don't try and sound like you know what's going on when you have less of a clue than the average tool posting here. Being negative and simply assuming that everything is working correctly doesn't really help improve anything. Sometimes mistakes are made, and they need to be dealt with. also I'd like to say that this change would be fine, if hackers weren't such an issue, if vehicles and tents saved properly, and if the dozens of other things fucked up with this game weren't fucked up. But as it stands there's way too many legitimate reasons to leave a server, and this coast teleporting thing makes this game a complete fucking headache for me. I love this game, but there's only so much pointless shit and abuse I can take from it. There are REAL issues that need fixing that ACTUALLY effect the average player.

TR 1 - Day 8 Also no vehicles yet. Support don't seem to care.

The whole point of the game is to get advantages over people. If you're going into a firefight on even ground or at a disadvantage, you're doing it wrong and you're going to die a lot. Are you going to play with other people? There's advantages in numbers. Taking better guns? Gives you an advantage. Being in cover? Better positioning? Flanking? NVGs? Camps/vehicles?

6 days now...no vehicles...de 1606

hallo jens after you rolled back 76 I cannot get on the server anymore :( any suggestions? - stuck on loading screen.... - now it shows 1.7.2.5 again....oh well - 1.7.2.5 works well, but as usuall no tents or vehicles on server until server hits 1200 i guess - now the server shows 1.7.2.4 again but it is 1.7.2.5 #it is a bug in dayzcommander ^^ (I guess nothing wrong with the server besides the unscheduled restart/crash around 10:00 server time which removed the tents/vehicles.... Question: Does the tent/vehicle disappear bug appear on the other servers aswell?

Our vehicles aren't saving AT ALL. Not positions, inventory, repair state, nothing. In fact there's always a motorcycle where our bicycle SHOULD have been and the bicycle is back at it's spawn point.

Our bicycle is replaced by a motorbike and then the bicycle appears back at it's spawn on every restart. It's extremely annoying, can't save the vehicles anywhere.

I would like to hear something from someone who actually has had a server setup that has had vehicles actually spawn.

We have a tonne to offer to the clan every weapon you can think of, you name it L85's SVD Camo M4A1 SD's M4 Holo's M107's AS50's ghillies NVG's etc, we wouldn't mind sharing these with any major clan willing to take on 2 experienced DayZ players. We've managed fine on our own playing DayZ except in an event where a big clan has raided us making it difficuilt to fight back sometimes even with the good set ups, So we've been thinking about joining a clan. The main intention of this is because we feel even as a duo with plenty of gear and experience man power always helps in a fight so we need people to roll with in the game. We are Age 17/19 mature and know how to play DayZ very well. We don't want any group of small players who are not really officialy a full time clan we want something that we can interact with and rely on and most certanly spend alot of time helping. Basically if you have a website/teamspeak (or other voice communication method) this is a big 1 up for us. We have no vehicles to bring you but we know LU45 like the back of our hands and can bring in ALOT of gear and garauntee we'll be a great addition to your clan. If there's anyone taking on players we'd love to get in touch and talk about why we should join you --- hit me up!

I did a rollback on my server for 1.7.2.4, and the tents and vehicles saved again. Get rid of 1.7.2.5, this is one of those patches that shouldn't be released to the masses. There are so many issues with it.

If you read the other posts by maris you would have read that ours was lost to a battleye kick and it hasn't been back since in 13 days. And our second server is glitched and doesn't spawn any vehicles.

How would it be possible to know exactly where a camp is?: Like I said in the previous reply.. "If you read the thread you would see that someone posted and said we had an inside person from their group, and you can also see (if you read the post) that I said a friend was here earlier and gave me the location. A lot of times anyone finds a camp is completely by chance." Was server hopping involved? If so why even look for vehicles and not just loot?: No server hopping was involved, once again, friend gave me the location and I moved to that location which is when I started recording. I'm not sure what your second question means so idk how to answer it. You had plenty of time to shoot to kill and loot but you did not do this. Was there some sort of plan already decided upon?: From my previous reply... "I was waiting for a good opportunity to take out three people, when the ghille guy disconnected I had my opportunity because the camo clothing was looting a tent. After I shot the camo clothed person he disconnected, without dying, so I knew he would be back soon so I didn't want to stick around long looting. Also the ghille guy (which you see in the video) disconnected as well. So there are two guys who are at the camp location but not in game so you bet your ass I am not waiting around for them to show up." also, Where was the said helicopter in this video? If you watch it fully, you will see when I put it into slow motion when the helicopter is shown. But since you wont go through the video the timestamp is 4:40 in the video on the right side of the screen, watch in 1080p for a better view. Does that answer all of your questions?

You run, good sir. Let this be your guide for loot (clicking on the building(s) will show you what percentage certain gear has to spawn). It should take you roughly 40 - 50 minutes to reach the top of the map. The best places to find vehicles are along the west and north edges of the map, as well as the northeast most corner. I wouldn't even bother checking any spawns.

Run. That's why some people call DayZ "The Running Simulator." I've been alive about 15 days now and I've wandered all over the map several times over. Vehicles are over-rated anyway. they'll get you killed by attracting attention. A bicycle is your best bet...I think there should be more of them on the map.

If you're solo or with one other friend you'll get killed within 10 minutes of having a vehicle. Vehicles just bring attention to yourself and unless you are well equiped to defend yourself ie 4-5 people with decent gear you should avoid using them at all costs.

Alright so the server we are on resets every few hours but alot of the items/vehicle locations/items in the vehicles/tents always revert back to the original save. If we store stuff in vehicles and tents, when the server resets it all reverts back to the way it was even when we do the save vehicle/tent. Is there a way to save the server so we dont have to keep redoing several hours worth of work? If we drive a vehicle all the way to the coast and the server resets, the vehicle goes back to the location we picked it up at. Not the spawn location but the spot it was in at our camp. If anyone knows how to fix this please let me know. Thanks

If you are on your own, surely a Bicycle would be sufficient, I find them everywhere! I agree with the other comment you dont need vehicles unless your in a group.

didnt had any problem with saving tents/vehicles

i had a couple of Vehicles server restarted and they went back to there spawn point not repaired so i spemt a good few hrs getting and saved them where i wanted them and they respawn back where i found them this is not funny

I'm seeing the same problem on our server. We've had vehicles and tents reset (disappear) when updating from 1.7.2.4 to 1.7.2.5, and now when the server restarts, the inventory of tents has been deleted. I cannot confirm if this is the same for vehicles. Vilayer; 1.7.2.5; 95883

Lost two tents and a bus. Logged out 9 hours ago, and different locations. Scavenging seems pointless at the moment.

we are on day 5 without vehicles... this hive bullcrap is getting frustrating for us as well.. We just park our characters next to places where we know vehicles spawn and log in to check them, restart the server and check etc.. I've heard of people past the 7 day mark still without vehicles.. starting to lose faith in rockets ability to keep this game afloat.
