koNtenT 36 Posted January 23, 2014 Self explanatory title. I've been trying to get back to my character that i've been working on. I know for a fact that it is indeed saved on a server, I just don't know which one. As far as I can tell there are hives within the seperate service providors. Just wish we could organize which hive is part of which on the search screen. GameServersVilayerMPGS are just a couple hives that i know about. But the personal servers, we have no clue what hive that is attributed towards. Is that its own hive or something? or does it go towards the service providers hive?

Advent1 126 Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) I believe there are no private hives as of yet. However there are hardcore and public hives. Hardcore servers are indeed labeled on the server list.But there is a problem with about 90% or a high number of servers not connecting to the central hive which result as a new character everything you log in, even on the same server. Keep in mind these servers do not delete your character from the central hive. There are a small amount of servers still working, I can confirm that the midnightgaming(should be the one that says DAY when you filter midnightgaming) server works and your character should be there.And from my understanding, Vilayer, Gameservers, and MPGS are simply hosting companies, they should all be connected to the main hive unless the server is running on the hardcore hive.

koNtenT 36 Posted January 23, 2014 Well i've deduced that my character is on the "casual" hive. But i've noticed that my character is in different areas when i login with those differing service providers. So they can't be all connected to a central hive. They must have a separate hive for their own servers. As for the characters not being saved, yes, unfortunately 100% true. I'm just trying to find my lost character in the vast invisible hives >.< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poran (DayZ) 5 Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Not sure you are understanding what Advent is telling you, at the moment a good majority of the servers are having issues connecting to the central hive. That is not saying that each has their own private hive, it is saying that for the time being it can't pull your character data. Because of this, each time you spawn on a server that is having issues, your character is getting reset. The only seperate hives right now are the hardcore and regular hives.

Hopefully they have a fix for this soon! However, I would still like to see a better distinguishing between which server belongs to which hive.

dayz1338 14 Posted January 23, 2014 Does it mean I can raise two characters. one in hardcore and one in regular? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HIHBGaming 14 Posted January 23, 2014 Hmmm on second thought, thanks I understand alittle better now. Hopefully they have a fix for this soon! However, I would still like to see a better distinguishing between which server belongs to which hive. There is only one Main hive which all servers connect to. That main hive is split into 2 shards, one is Hardcore and one is Normal. No GSP has their own Hive, it's that simple. Does it mean I can raise two characters. one in hardcore and one in regular? Yes, that's how it should work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
