herbster 34 Posted January 8, 2013 OK, I posted a few days ago about a character being reset after I had logged out/quit DayZ. This has happened 3 times in the last week, with the last happening after the following:Going to a safe spot with no aggro and pressing ESC.Getting a grey screen saying something like "You cannot logout"Unable to get back in game so exiting the game using Dayz Commander.Logging back in and on coast with respawn gear.When I mentioned this on side chat (UK410) I was told that you shouldn't quit using ESC! Exactly how should I quit the game without the chance of my character being reset?Carlos the Jackal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Allie (DayZ) 97 Posted January 8, 2013 Are you sure you are NOT in combat at the time you try to logout ?I should not know of a different way to stop gaming, i mean i use ESC to stop my game ?!?Only thing i can think of is you try to "combat log", make sure your little pistol icon is not flashing when you try to get out of the game.Lots of admins will remove your gear if they catch you "combat logging" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herbster 34 Posted January 8, 2013 I wasn't in combat at all. I had killed a z about a minute beforehand and was just moved to a safe spot approx 400m from a town. My pistol wasn't flashing at all. The last time it happened was the only time the grey screen popped up. The 2 times prior to that everything seemed fine until I logged back in.I don't really mind glitches that much, it's just a real pain getting up north to respawn down south again :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freaky88 13 Posted January 8, 2013 this is an hacker made anti hack on the server, makes it so a grey screen comes up when you press esc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
