Cannibal713 1 Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) I heard on a couple tutorials & guides that you can use a character made on one server on another server. I have only been playing DayZ for a couple weeks now and I have had to create a new character anytime I log onto a new server. Is the transfering of characters an option that only some servers use? Or did I get bogus info? Thanks,Cannibal Edited January 11, 2013 by Cannibal713 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Testwd3r235 2810 Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) A character made on a public hive can be played on other public hives but a private hive means your character is stuck there, you're obviously joining privates.

Sula 1205 Posted January 11, 2013 Cannibal, I think what you heard was a bit confusing due to the use of the word transfering.Basically, when you move from one server to another, if they are in the same hive, you will keep the same character and therefore, keep all the items you have too.However, if it is not the same hive but a server on a different hive (and it's not always easy to know by the descriptions) then you will start a new character. Of course, you still keep your character on the other hive. And each time you start on a server from yet a different hive, you will start another new character. So keep a written note of all those server addresses and which ones are in the same hive if you want to know exactly which ones are the on the same hives. :thumbsup: :beans: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
