Flight96 99 Posted January 28, 2014 I completely agree that it's much more satisfying to get killed by someone and lose all your stuff as oppose to this bug but hey..alpha. We'll get through it man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tizzle 90 Posted January 28, 2014 Try to play on the same server, avoid small private looking servers, and most important of all....DON'T SERVER HOP 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Admiral_69 78 Posted January 28, 2014 Problem is server configuration. Report the server... There is a post by rocket about this somewhere. Anyways play hardcore as most of those servers are configured right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nebulae3 422 Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Try to log on a similar server like Regular Fragnet, MPGS.CO, or Gameservers.com - maybe your character with equipment will come back. (click on host.)And remember if you (click on 'mode') you can decide to play on a hardcore server, which is only 1st person view,or regular server, which also support 3rd person view. The thing is if you log on a hardcore mode server even with same character name: You start without equipment.It seems that hardcore and regular servers are unique, which means you can't use your regular character with equipment on a hardcore serveror vice versa. Always check game mode in that server list.Although, there're many garbage hosts out there at the moment; I hope servers need hardware requirement in near future. -Ori Edited January 28, 2014 by Ori42 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nebulae3 422 Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) i just lost my character now with full gear for no reason. i think i wont play until the game reaches beta if this is not gonna get fixed. Did u read anything I wrote above?I think u clicked on a hardcore server; you don't lose your equipment, but you will start a new character on a different game mode.Edit; see it as two character slots.1. Hardcore server mode.2. Regular server mode. Edited January 28, 2014 by Ori42 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lolwat 2 Posted January 28, 2014 Did u read anything I wrote above?I think u clicked on a hardcore server; you don't lose your equipment, but you will start a new character on a different game mode.I know that Hardcore servers are seperate genius, im looking at the mode tab before trying it, its the same sh*t which happens so often, just lost it again.

Nebulae3 422 Posted January 28, 2014 Hm, really, I've not experienced it yet..They've wiped characters, but that is after new patches.It's alpha so if it's a bug, well, report it. (Bug report section) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
silversx 75 Posted January 28, 2014 please stop posting that link about disconnected from hive.. this is a different bug because the servers i'm on are always full and these are servers that saves characters perfectly fine one minute and respawns you next..

Tocaefoge 3 Posted January 28, 2014 Whats the diferrence from Hardcore mode to regular? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MakeThemListen 51 Posted January 28, 2014 Better yet, please quit going to low pop servers to gear up and then switching to high pop. Happy you lost your gear, you deserve it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
solodude23 649 Posted January 28, 2014 These threads are becoming ridiculously redundant. Stick to a few servers that don't give you this issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
