iamshade 0 Posted December 30, 2012 (edited) Well, decided to update the game from around July and give it a go. What do I find? First off, I find someones base, second I find tons of car parts all in one area, enough to repair a car, and better yet, a quick base to keep it in not far away.Third.. oh man.. I find a helicopter crash and my first M107 with 3 mags...Fourth.. find a CZ 550 in a barn with 2 more mags that I can fit in my new coyote.Log off to take a quick break.Log back in.. GUESS WHAT? Everything was not saved. I was in a random spot in the map in a random barn that I've never been to before with no gear.Log on to another server to check if it was a private hive server. Nope! Server I found the stuff in was a rocket server. Logged back into the same server and lost a ton of stuff...This ever happen to you guys?Btw, if it matters, I did the steam efficiency thing before I logged back in.

Dortmunder (DayZ) 19 Posted December 30, 2012 If you're worried about your phat loots in DayZ, you're going to be highly disappointed if you continue playing :P 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iamshade 0 Posted December 30, 2012 I am not worried, I know I'll get the stuff again.The only annoying part is not being able to use the m107 on someone.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charb 298 Posted December 30, 2012 If you're worried about your phat loots in DayZ, you're going to be highly disappointed if you continue playing :Pyes, but being killed legitimately is one thing. Logging out for 3 minutes to grab a coke and come back to have nothing saved is another. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iamshade 0 Posted December 30, 2012 Almost worth it for the glass bottle cokes.I don't even feel like playing on the server anymore just in case it happens, and I had a whole base set up almost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SgtDouglas 87 Posted December 30, 2012 wait, was the base gone, too?it may have been the server owner did a rollback due to some sort of hackah attack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michaelvoodoo25 3120 Posted December 30, 2012 It has happened to me many times, Logg out to find myself far from where i left off.I found logging out and back in again fixed this.It is part and parcel of the game, you'll just have to get used to it or find a "home" server whee you can build a better experience.

karism 1 Posted December 30, 2012 The only thing i can think that could have caused this is if you logged soon after exiting combat and your "combat" (gun) icon was still flashing, that or a bug/rollback. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iamshade 0 Posted December 30, 2012 Might of been a rollback, I recall someone being disconnected for hacking but he was still on the server.. name was "Punisher" or something.Anyways, yeah, I've been used to these kinds of things. Alt tabbing for 5 seconds to find you dead when you tab back, walking down the firestation stairs and teleporting 50 feet above the building. breaking your legs on a tree. falling off the ladders, etc..But that arma 2 engine has pretty graphics huh.

ponystein 22 Posted December 30, 2012 remember this is still in alpha build meaning it shouldnt even really be being played right now by traditional standards . theres gonna be server bugs and whatnot and i hope the SA has fixed these problems Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stafoo 61 Posted December 30, 2012 Simple stop caring about your gear and vehicles that's a good way to be disappointed. Truth be told I've always had more fun building up then running around with a full loadout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingfury4 65 Posted December 31, 2012 I only play on private hives so I don't know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sniperteam6 8 Posted December 31, 2012 Same with me. Got killed by hackers twice in one week. Today, in FR3, a server I play very often on, logged off with some great gear. Logged back and it made me chose what gender. I thought, naa, fr3 went to a private hive.I logged on to another server and same. I lost all gear and somehow was killed without knowing it. No one else on the server.Extremely frustrating... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tsandrey 379 Posted December 31, 2012 remember this is still in alpha build meaning it shouldnt even really be being played right now by traditional standards . theres gonna be server bugs and whatnot and i hope the SA has fixed these problemsThe "Alpha" phrase in the mod, means literally nothing. They may aswell remove it and say the mod is finished, cause nothing is going to change. Only SA will change Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tsandrey 379 Posted December 31, 2012 yeah that's crap. the mod is still being developed.It's still being developed, but there won't be any big changes in the future. Just because it's not an Alpha, it doesn't mean they have to stop producing patches Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dankine 377 Posted December 31, 2012 (edited) It's still being developed, but there won't be any big changes in the future. Just because it's not an Alpha, it doesn't mean they have to stop producing patchesSo "nothing is going to change" is analogous to "there will only be small changes" in your head is it?There were quite large changes in the most recent patches.

ponystein 22 Posted December 31, 2012 do you even know what alpha means ? i bet most of the code isnt even finished yet and its been majorly tweaked since the initial release as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
