EagLeTaLoN 5 Posted February 6, 2014 Okay, so yesterday after the new patch we tested the theory of being handcuffed when you logout. So we handcuffed my wife while her body was still in game after logging. She had a full inventory of "Military" gear that took ages to get. Upon logging back into the server we figured 2 things. 1. She would not be handcuffed and log into the same location or 2. she would log back in handcuffed. Sadly she was neither, she found herself on the beach with no sun tan lotion and no pot to piss in. Anyone else experience this issue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaughingJack (DayZ) 767 Posted February 6, 2014 ...being handcuffed+logout=death. Has been so before the patch will stay that way hopefully.And since the actual logout happens AFTER the 30 seconds time (when the body is gone ingame) that's perfectly normal.. And this:So we handcuffed my wife while her body was still in game worries me. ;) 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antykain 200 Posted February 6, 2014 You cannot logout with handcuffs on.. as you experienced, you will die. This has not changed since the last patch.. been like that for awhile now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

antykain 200 Posted February 6, 2014 This is intended.yes, it is.. And glad it is. I've seen the 'bug' where the person wearing the cuffs breaks free from them (you'll see the msg saying so), but then goes right back to being restrained. You can logout and relogin to the server safely if that happens, without dying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
