Nooooo. But there really needs to be atleast twice as many vehicles per server, and most that need nothing to run.

Just make people carrying 50cal rifles: 1) WALK ONLY. No running. So they pretty much have to use vehicles to get to their spots or something, and that is much more easier to spot and much more rewarding to go to war with that guy. 2) Standing or laying only. No crouching.

Me and my friends have been having problems with saving as well. It doesn't seem ANYTHING but the players save into the Hive. Tents, vehicles and barbed wire all reset on server restarts. We've witnessed this on DK1, UK122 (or similar), Norway 39 and FI21 so far.

Yeah, it's unfortunate that admins abuse their power once they lose something rare/precious. 2 nights ago my buddy and I came up on a camp w/ a Ural and decided to take what we needed from it then blow it up. Well, we check the clan forums for that server and the admin was convincing people that the vehicles failed to spawn (when they didn't because we still had our ATVs) after the server upgrade. So randomly the server restarts in 2 minutes. Ural is back where it was. Go figure? Anyway, on topic, The only time I've ran into a heli in game was w/ hackers, still an intense moment hearing the chopper coming from the distance just to circle above you while you're in thick trees. The only time i've seen a REAL crash site was also a hacker lol. My buddies and I were at the northwest airfield when a hacker tried to land his A-10 on the runway. It crashed in a huuuge explosion. We ran over and looted our first ever pair of NVGs, an M4 CCO SD, M9SD, and a few other things. We were killed later at Stary Sober though :(.

Since yesterday when I updated to 1.7.2.5, I am having some weird thinks going on. The most noticeable is the kill count. Whenever I log in it's reset to 0. Including the humanity. After the update I tried to reconnect to the server I was playing, which had a vehicle that I was about to hide. Since versions were different, I get the eternal loading screen and did force-quit. I tried then log into a updated server, but the moment I connected I spawned in the wildness and my character was dead. Strange because I could move freely and even took a screenshot. http://steamcommunity.com/id/shigues/screenshot/956140577740415154?tab=public I disconnected from the server and tried again. Now I was on the shore without nothing. Not even bandage nor flashlight. All gone, but my Coyote backpack, which is strange. Another weird thing was my kill count. It had all the previous life stats. Was I really dead? Since I got a nice "hero" outfit and wanted to see the changes in the game, I didn't mind very much about having all my gear lost. So I played until Cherno. Then I noticed that my kill counts were 0 again! I read on the forum that if you get killed by zombies and respawn, it does fix the problem. But I found a bus moments before suicide, and decided to try it too. Ended up I got killed by a hacker, who later took the bus (I really don't want to get into this subject). So, I got killed and respawn on the shore like everybody else. I have been alive since, but my stats are reseting like crazy. I don't know what is happening! Also, it seems I cannot save tents or vehicles, as they disappear from where I left them. If anyone can help, I will be very thankful!

Because of server problems (tents and vehicles are gone) and training of a new server admin the server will restart multiple times until we fix the problems, We are sorry for the inconvenience. NL Forces Crew

Playing since may and cant find vehicles?? lol then sorry but you SUCK at this game (mod). I have now had 7 hueys. 4 I fixed completely solo, 1 with 2 friends, and 1 I found today fully fixed at a camp. I haven't had a "home" server for over 10 days. Every server I set up a camp on either gets repeatedly hacked or doesn't save tents / vehicles. I finally found an admin who has a decent server that saves things (thank god); and Im now setting up camp there. Over the past 10 days however I have gotten camps set up within 24-48 hours on one server after another. All with high end gear, a heli, and at least 1 other vehicle; and all from the server that Im setting up on. If you cant find things, you're looking in the wrong place or on the wrong server. Dont look at spawn points, thats ridiculous. How long has the server been up for? You dont think 1000 other people have gone to look at that spawn? Get away from the coast and look for camps. Maybe think a bit... Go where you would put a camp thats hard to find. Run around with your head on a swivel not just auto running not paying any attention. tl:dr Stop running around cherno looking for cars. Leave the coast and dont waste time on spawn points. And yes, PLEASE stop vehicles from being savable off the map. <_<

I was a radio repair specialist for the Air Force for many years working on tactical ground and ground-to-air radio systems and I completely agree that DayZ needs radios, but I would want them to be very simplified for a few reasons. 1) Radio Frequency propagation theory is incredibly complex and I wouldn't want the game engine trying to figure out if and/or how far you could transmit a radio signal. 2) Radios can operate an a nearly infinite number of frequencies, so finding someone else on a channel would be very unlikely unless you knew the emergency channels and they were using them. 3) Not all radios can talk to one another - they use different types of modulation, different bands, and some even use repeaters, computers, or satellites to extend their range. My suggestion for introducing radios to DayZ would be very, very simple. When you pick up a radio, it would enable a new text and voice chat channel called "Radio channel" that would allow you to talk to anyone else on the map, no matter how far they are, as long as they have a radio also. This would build on the existing "direct chat" function, and could eliminate the need for people to run teamspeak, ventrilo, or some other voice chat program in conjunction with this game. If the server can handle additional voice channels it would be nice to have several voice channels available such as 'Alpha Bravo Charlie Delta' so people can avoid talking over one another. This would even add a new element to PvP since bandits could listen in on the radios and find out what people are doing from their radio chatter. I guess if the devs wanted to get really in depth, they could add an 'encryption' option so several people could encrypt their radios and only talk to one another with no worries of being listened to. Radios should have a good chance of spawning on the air fields, in/near broken military vehicles, and in the hospitals. They could also have a small chance to spawn in other locations, but these are where I figured they were most likely to show up (at least the type you could carry on you).

DE 1790 No Vehicle Spawning. Good Luck Dev Team! DayZ without Vehicles is not DayZ :,(

Hmm Same for me my vehicles disappear and all the tents in the area are flattened!

"admin abuse allover the place. spawned vehicles, godmode." I local banned your so called admins [sx|G]N0cif and Thomas, and send the log to BE for global banlist. As "admin" that's about what I can do. / Zman - Admin of SE 53.

admin abuse allover the place. spawned vehicles, godmode. [sx|G]N0cif and Thomas is the name of the admins.

Why not have vehicles continue to spawn in their location every 24h or something (except the Huey). I seriously can't see any problem in vehicles being more common. Most will just get crashed or destroyed by other players anyway.

Yes, absolutely. Once the issue has been fixed and vehicles are spawning you should definitely see an announcement from a DayZ dev.

Tents are not saving and disappear after server restart, vehicles are not spawning. Our Server ID is above 8k. Will keep posting to the server forum to update, its day 2 without vehicles for us. Fifteen + community members are monitoring the server for vehicle spawns.

The fact that you are not making any money on this makes me a Sad Panda. You should put a donate button up. I can only speak for myself but if I saw a "raise money to get vehicles on your server campaign" I would put some money on it:) Good luck finding the issue. If there is anything the community can do to help let us know. Can we confirm that there will be a announcement when the issues is resolved? That way we can stop looking for the vehicles.

allan, calm down. i almost quit myself (practically did for a few days) this hacker problem has stolen countless item from me... including our teams 7 vehicles and every piece of equipment we had :( (they spawned tractors to destroy the tents) but i started again, and ironically was told it was fixed and as i read that got killed by random sniper shots killing me... while inside a windowless building it will get better i can assure you

If you originally had vehicles and they are no longer spawning, then that is a separate issue. Are you sure people aren't just hoarding them? I am no way trying to sound sarcastic or pretentious, just genuine, but me make ZERO money off of server hosts. We do not get a cut from anyone. At this time we have no ETA. I understand this is quite frustrating, but our dev team is doing the best job they can at the moment.

Same issues here, Vehicles randomly get replaced with something else on restart or just disappear. Tents de spawn or end up being fully stocked again even after we have moved them. Also the worst part was last night me and 2 friends managed to repair a chopper on it's spawn point, we was up until around 3am doing this, we flew it back to our camp and logged off. This morning I logged on to check all was ok, our chopper,tents and ural where all still there. I do the daily server restart to refresh downed choppers and do a corps cleanup, log back in and the ural is now a push bike and the chopper is gone, I'm guessing it's now back on its spawn point and back in the state it spawned in.

I got the same problem atm...got most of the good stuff...the slow and legit way. Our server doesnt spawn vehicles and tents not working. So for the last few days i played a lot less than the weeks before...just because the only thing i could do would involve meeting other players and i'm clinging to my stuff and dont want to waste it after all the effort and adventures it took to get it. So i dont really venture out alone and that really sucks...i want the fun times back when surviving ment finding the next can of beans and not crouching through the night and protecting your stuff or not logging in at all. Don't get me wrong...i wont ever Alt+F4 except for a hacker attack...but i just dont go into any action anymore when i'm not backed by my mates. So i sulk stuffed with high tec weapons watching youtube videos of other ppl having fun in chernarus. Fucking pitiful. I think i will go out now and give all my stuff to a friend who started a few days ago and start from scratch. Funny how we cling to material stuff even in the virtual world oO

I've been playing for months, I've lost helicopters by being forcefully ejected out of them by hackers, I've had vehicles blown up by spawned land mines, nuked to kingdom come, been shot from hundreds of meters away, blow up by grenades, killed by numerous server hoppers inside barracks and other normal deaths in the harsh world of chernarus, last time I actually cared and got mad was when I was killed by surprise by a female character that had just joined inside the barracks, it was a damn shame that I had lost everything the game had to offer, after that I just didn't care any more, the fact that I can obtain most end-game millitary gear, besides NVG's and rangefinders, probably makes it less painful, but now I just want to mess around, scream at people over direct or slash them to death with a hatchet while screaming ''BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD''

Yeah so, our vehicles and shit are on a french server, but I can't see a SINGLE FR server in the server browser. Anyone else getting this? EDIT: Seems like most of the servers are US and there aren't too many european servers...wtf?

Alright It has come to my attention that quite a few people are pissed off at the hackers of Dayz, and I'm not talking about the cute ones that will spawn in a few guns for him and his friends, or some vehicles for his clan. No I am talking about the ones that will Teleport you to the oh so lovely Thunderdome, or teleport you to the middle of the ocean so you can't kill yourself and you have leave your computer on all night to freeze to Death(This is happened D:). So anyways I decided to see how easy it is to hack, so I just do a little google digging and what do you know the first link is a forum dedicated to it. So I took the chance to find out what they need to do to be able to hack, so I registered (Hypocrite?) and took the time to search around those forums. Let me tell you guys it is easy,and I mean too easy to hack. Though I think I found a way to avoid there mischief. So apparently a key thing to do when your hacking is to push the 2 buttons "RightShift + P", I also found out Battleye actually does it job and can prevent anyone from hitting those two buttons while in-game! So basically all you have to do, to prevent being teleported to your death is before you get on hit the "RightShift + P" combination too see if you get kicked from the server. If you do, Great! That server is hack-proof, so join back in and have fun. But if you do not get kicked from the server, you know that it could possibly be hacked. So I decided to test this method on certain servers and here are only some of the servers that aren't hack-proof: -All "GB #__" servers -Most "Seattle __" servers -some "UK __" servers -some "US__" servers And there's probably a lot more, the only way to know is check for yourselves. Thanks Note: I am almost positive it works, but don't get upset if it doesn't, its only a theory.

New server here, no vehicles are spawning, tents are not saving in fact they are disappearing completely upon server restart. US 2503 Dallas Veteran Code Killers

Its called go camp sniffing....I've found so many mountain dews by just searching for vehicles and stumble across random camps...Im assuming this is a trolling post otherwise like MeduzZ- I too will put a NATO round into your damn chopper hah.
