Sounds like a bug, joining server with different version than the client seems to be doing that.

Also, deserved it.

hmm one of the servers i tried joining said miss match on versions thanks might be it so i guess it is a bug.

 

no worries about deserving it like i said i want to test that scope out (better than being a bandit)

I think you'll find that the members of this forum have no sympathy for server hoppers. This is what we like to call "karma".

 

But as for the character wipe, yeah this is a known bug. Some seem to think that particular servers wipe your character, others just say it's an arbitrary bug.

It is an issue with servers that are new and haven't been "whitelisted" yet. rocket comments on it here.

 

Your best bet is to Favorite servers that you trust and which have been around for a few days, so you can be reasonably assured they're on the whitelist and will save your progress to the hive. Server hop at your own risk.

Talking of 'testing' I think they should have a shooting range option on the front end where you can test fire all weapons in the game with all attachments available for practice. Not mulyiplayer or anything, just like a mini Armoury as in Arma2, seeing as this is a standalone and the weapons are brand new.

server hopping for loot is against the idea of the game.

 

i tried it on release day just to see if it could be done, and decided it's too OP to be allowed.

 

HOWEVER: i quite like being able to change servers, i like running around in daytime because night ruins ArmA's looks (needs moonlit) (i CAN play at night, i just don't WANT to play at night)

Stop me then because I will be doing it in a minute. Reasons for doing it stated as being valid. A bug is a bug and that's it. Would you like to switch froma. Night time server to a daylight one and be wiped?

Actualy pointless arguing over this I got my answer thanks for your valuable input :)

Best idea ever!
