marsmars 155 Posted January 23, 2014 Logged into some server earlier and was a fresh spawned, so figured my character was wiped Anyway just now logged into a different server and I have my fully geared character from before the patch? how does this work?

kipps 64 Posted January 23, 2014 There are 2 separate hives now - 1 for 1st Person servers, and 1 for 3rd person servers. Maybe this is the reason ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marsmars 155 Posted January 23, 2014 There are 2 separate hives now - 1 for 1st Person servers, and 1 for 3rd person servers. Maybe this is the reason ?hmm though tried logging into other servers and it seems I am a fresh spawn? Is this the fix for server hopping or something?

Zarniwoop 1193 Posted January 23, 2014 There are 2 separate hives now - 1 for 1st Person servers, and 1 for 3rd person servers. Maybe this is the reason ? To clarify: Servers listed as Hardcore are on a different hive from the Regular ones. Also on the Regular there seems to have been a roll back of a few days. So if you didn't have a character a few days ago, you won't now.Otherwise you got the "character save" bug. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antonioajc 500 Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) I spawned as a fresh spawn on both hives of regular and hardcore. I was fully geared before, so I figured that my character was wiped. My pre-patch character was a week old, and he was still alive before the patch. Edited January 23, 2014 by AntonioAJC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crasheralex 2 Posted January 23, 2014 i have the same problem. i only go on regualar servers and sometimes im a new spawn and sometimes im a geared up character from a few days ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marsmars 155 Posted January 23, 2014 seems now like every server I go I spawn fresh in a different place? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mtclipz 31 Posted January 23, 2014 There are Normal and Hardcore servers now. You can see in the server list. It appears Hardcore servers you start fresh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
placiddream 9 Posted January 23, 2014 i too just logged in and my character was geared differently from before the patch. didnt think much of it till i recognized my gear was from a few days ago when my character got wiped. the only reason i know for sure was on that character i had horded 4 prestine saline solutions with iv starter attached in a medkit bag. only did that once.. i figured we would have got wiped after this patch so i count myself lucky.

ZedsDeadBaby 2287 Posted January 23, 2014 It doesn't appear to be the Regular/Hardcore division at the moment; I tried both and had new spawns on each type of server; but, on other servers, I have a version of myself from about 6 days ago. Very odd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeepEuphoria 69 Posted January 23, 2014 Yeah I have the same thing, it's very very strange. I logged off the game about 8 hours ago "Before The Update", I was fairly kitted up in civilian Hero-esque clothing.I just returned to the game "After The Update" and found myself as a fresh spawn on the coast! This was on a Regular server.That server was lagging, so I hopped into a different Regular server and to my surprise my character was fully geared in Military gear! :-\ LOL This was a character I had about 5 days ago that "Died" as a result of the bloody annoying "Vault as you try to climb a ladder" glitch.So I tried a few more regular servers and discovered that my character changes from this old Dead character and a fresh spawn in different servers even if they are all regular ones.I tried Hardcore servers and I seem to be a fresh spawn in all of those. Not complaining, just very strange and surprising....... and confusing :huh: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bad Monkey 1 Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Same here. Why would they put this into the "Stable Branch" if it hasn't already been tested? And,http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=7291 Edited January 23, 2014 by Bad Monkey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mastersans 0 Posted January 23, 2014 I presume 'Hardcore' is just as it say's - like minecraft you start with nothing each time?I to logged in to find myself stood on a roof in Cherno, a character that died about a week ago? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ponymony 9 Posted January 23, 2014 For me it seems to reset on every server...so far...I hope it's not like this for server hoping etc, kind of defeats the purpose of playing with friends when you are on different servers.This is what private hives are for!

djporternz 644 Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Same here. Why would they put this into the "Stable Branch" if it hasn't already been tested?Remember, 'Stable Branch' of the current Alpha may not actually be that stable. Everyone in the Alpha is actually here to test this stuff. They've just done some major reorganisation of the Hive with the Hardcore/Normal servers, I'd presume that there might be a few kinks to work out with that.
