Vagabob 0 Posted December 23, 2013 People have told me that loot doesn't spawn at all now - only upon server reset. Is this true? If so, is this just a temporary measure until more updates are made to the game? Judging by the lack of zeds i'm guessing the current game mechanic is somewhat deactivated. Right now just feels like a massive cross country simulator with nothing but beanies and motorcycle helmets lying around. Apologies if this is covered somehow - didn't see any stickies / no useful search hits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fluxley 2228 Posted December 23, 2013 Here you go Respawning Zombies & Loot Target Delivery: Early 2014 Currently to have the server check if something needs respawning can cause an issue with performance. We did not want to go with a "scripted" solution for respawning, and it is expensive on server performance. Player spawning on the coast is conducted by the engine, and we are going to employ a similar process for managing zombie and loot spawn (possibly parallelized). This is a high priority task and zombie respawn at least is very close to being implemented. http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/156129-confirmed-upcoming-features-for-dayz/ Welcome to the forum. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
