1.5.5 Character saves not working

[Felix (DayZ) 21]

For about the last 4 hours, character saves haven't been working for myself and some others on a couple of the US servers.

Is this a widespread issue?

Eu5 has been having issues with Hive losing connection to the database. Could be the same issue there too.

I've been having the same issue, nothing saves on logout.

Ditto. Nothing is saving tested multiple times. multiple servers, same result

Did find a few servers that seemed to be working fine. I contacted the admins of US4 and US5 to get them restarted, hopefully that gets it up and running again.

Anyone have a clue what might be the cause?

Can confirm stuff wasn't saving on US3 and US5.

So the servers don't save for 3 hours, then I join another server and all my shit is gone?

I can deal with the backpacks being broken, mobs being glitchy etc, but this shit is just WAY too buggy.

I hope you guys fix this game fast because it is enjoyable, I just think if you would of waited a month or two before making it public it could of been a lot better. There are so many blatant bugs that its hard to call this more than a dev build.

edit: might want to beef your website up too. It was already slow before this game became popular.

This is an Alpha build. So not even a "game release" as you put it. I am right with you there on frustrating bugs, but the best you can do is make (2 people) aware of it and let them try to fix it.

I think the major issue happening right now is the exponential growth in popularity. This is running off a central server much like an MMO would need to be. But with an MMO you have studio backed financing and a team of people. It's literally a handful of people right now.

So while I completely understand where you are coming from. Also understand this really is just a Dev build and they have never claimed anything more.

Us4 is having these issues also.

In all likelyhood, and this is me grasping at straws, it's a backend thing and something might not be working on the character server.
