Korsbaek 1778 Posted January 1, 2014 It's an admin from the server you're playing on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

niallgeorge@hotmail.com 0 Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) So it happened again today. took ages for server to load. its one of my favorites. and boom back on the coast. i'm starting to wonder if you guys just don't like my character. but seriously is this due to how long it is hanging on character create and then just being like oh well too long. reset it. or whats actually going on here so me and others can avoid this pitfall. Ok yet again third day in a row. i mean right after gearing up log in on the morning boom back on the coast server took ages to load pressed ESC then re-joined. and yes this is deleting characters. This is no server issue this is the way the Client is talking to Hive. and if any interruptions happen even if you dont press esc still characters going missing. is this "Rockets" "Anti-Cheat" gizmo. LULWhy is this happening?... anybody? is anybody else experiencing this glorious time waster? Some news, useless news but news all the same... and not from anybody even close to Dayzgame or Dayzstandalone or Dayz@Hive "I'm not sure there's actually anything we can do about this. It may just be that you've switched from one Hive to another, run by us instead of whoever ran your previous one.Character data is stored on a per-hive basis. All MPGS servers run on one Hive. Anything on another provider will likely run on another Hive.In order to determine which Hive you're using, you need to look at the naming convention of the servers. All servers are named in a specific way:DayZ Location Hive-ServerNo. (Public\Settings) Version - blahblahCheck which Hive you're using and you'll be able to determine where your character is stored." now this just seems silly. as i can join a server in the Netherlands and it works fine takes my character over and everything. go back to Australian servers and i'm running around all good. then you join any MPGS, Villayer, Gameservers, sorry guys but you couldn't host to save yourselves.. its been your servers and only your servers that have eaten my characters, om nom nom. so for future reference do some serious research to see if your favourite servers are being hosted by these guys. It may not say in the server details. so try look on gametracker or something like that. and yes i realise this is pre-alpha derp rubbish. but maybe Dean Hall and his goonies can sort out who there giving rights to for hosting such an awesome game. cause a lot of these guys are really hard to contact. Also its been the independent servers that have been the best... 24/7 sun, no eaten characters. the only problem is whats the point in admin when ya cant even talk to them. (oh right theres still but loads of hacking going on.) YAY! Edited January 3, 2014 by mintme Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cantora (DayZ) 3 Posted January 3, 2014 This just happened to me. I finally had everything comfortable and just got an M4 and ammo and then yeah...character reset :( sooo unfair. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
niallgeorge@hotmail.com 0 Posted January 4, 2014 Ok i have tested this and done a bit of research. not sure where to put it under bug report as this may not be a bug.when loading a server and it says waiting for host if you press escape quickly then your back in server menu and you choose same server again (and also any server) it will reset your character. Now typing this into google got me info on how to duplicate characters and it uses this method in Standalone. So i'm wondering has the Dev team patched this problem just by resetting your character. if so not really a good hot fix. as if joining a server and the server nearly gets there but then has a hiccup and you end back at the server menu. chances are the next server you join will have a reset character. Dev team if your reading this maybe you could notify us of such changes. or maybe put into known issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
