After a few days,got some questions.

[Beam17 0]

For the record, i just started playing 4 days ago. This is by far one of the best games i have ever played, and cant wait to see the final product =D. OK now for questions, i tried to look for answers but no luck. Hopefully you guys can help me.

1.Tents

-I found a tent, but for the life of me could not place it. I tried object free flat areas. Is their a trick to this?

-From my understanding if you save your tent, the tent only shows up on that particular server? Does the tent also get deleted after a server restart?

2.Vehicles

-I have yet to have any in this game, but if i were to find one, how would i secure it after i log out?

-Ive yet to see a vehicle, are they super rare?

3.My Corpse

-How long does it take for your corpse to decay? Recently i died so my buddy guarded the house my corpse was in. It was a LONG way out so by the time i got there, i went in the house and i saw no body. I heard flies buzzing around, was my body just bugged out, or did it decay?

4.Loot

-I heard different things on this. Does the loot change once per hour? Does it stay the same until a server restart? If it does change once an hour do i have to loot whats their already for it to change?

5.Maps

-Can never seem to find one, is there a particular place to find them?

Thanks in advance for taking the time to answer these questions :)

1- Tents placement are indeed buggy, if you really wanna place a tent somewhere just run around with your gear open spamming the 'place tent' button (right click and keep spamming it). And no, they don't disappear after server restarts and they stay only on the server you place them.

2- Well, stash them somewhere safe, in the woods, preferably in a place where you know how to get to. They're not really rare, you just need to go to their spawns, and depends on the servers, some old servers people already took and the vehicles for themselves, which means they're hidden somewhere. Use this map for vehicle spawns.

3- This system is kinda buggy, I think they're supposed to stay there for 15 minutes, but sometimes someone found it first and hid it or they just sank after a while. In case you have a friend guarding your body, tell him to get your stuff and drop on the ground, it's a lot safer.

4- They change after server restarts I think. Well, not sure how long does it take for them to respawn, but if your remove the loot of it's spawn and put them far away from it (I.E.: there's a bunch of tin cans on the ground, you take them and drop them somewhere else, like 10m away from it's original spawn) it's gonna respawn faster I think, that's what I usually do.

5- You can use the DayZ loot sheet to see where they usually spawn, to be honest I always find them all over the map, in Grocery stores, Houses (mainly houses), etc.. I'd recommend using the loot sheet.

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask them, I'll gladly help you out buddy! :D

Goat is more or less correct for most things. Except the map on vehicle spawns, it is horribly incomplete as there are roughly 10 other vehicle spawn points I know of that are not included on it. And no, I will not tell you where they are :P.

Actually, there is a bug where they occasionally don't show up after a server restart. If this happens to you, odds are that the tent will be there again after the server has been restarted. This has happened to me many times, but always the tent was back again after the restart.

Yes, indeed. There are a few vehicles that are not on the map, but still, a few of those are. And well, to be quite honest, I only found two of the cars on that map.

True that, my bad. That just happened to me. The servers with automatic restart system sometimes bugs, your tents glitches and they disappear, but they should be back after another restart I guess.
