mssing 34 Posted February 6, 2014 in perspective of all whining about "server hoppers" and "loot farmers", it would be interesting to know how many servers players connect to, to play ..if you would be so kind to share... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ImageCtrl 719 Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) I change only the server when I can´t connect to the old one (full).Or the old one feels laggy.Normally I press only "play". Edited February 6, 2014 by NoCheats 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gobbokirk 546 Posted February 6, 2014 Well lets hope this version stay open....And still I got 1 main server that I've been on for 2 weeks now.Will probably go looking for a couple of backups for when it's full but so far it's been from 10-30 people on it and it runs smooth.

Scofflaw 73 Posted February 6, 2014 I used to have 2 or 3 preferred servers, but they've all gone offline now. I tend to go on low pop servers, or servers with timed resets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TedZ 424 Posted February 6, 2014 I play on 2 servers, and they are always low pop and 95% of the time unlooted lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rudette 435 Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) I tend to look for trouble, so I have a history full of servers that are high population with 60 or less ping.This can make starting out after a respawn more challenging, but over all a less lonely experience.I suppose you can choose to see a high pop server as a glass half empty or half full. Since competing against the environment is a no go right now I choose to compete against other players for resources! More people shooting at me. More interaction. And best of all, more victims.

-MadTommy 367 Posted February 6, 2014 I just play on the highest population hardcore server with a ping below 150 that has an official name. Whichever that may be. I never switch mid session, no reason to. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DarkwaveDomina 1099 Posted February 6, 2014 I don't play on specific servers. Whenever I start up DayZ I sort the list by ping and look for a decently populated hardcore server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xRann 126 Posted February 6, 2014 been playing experimentals, so any of the hardcore servers. stable, usually 3-4 hardcore, depending on server pop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rissou 42 Posted February 6, 2014 in perspective of all whining about "server hoppers" and "loot farmers", it would be interesting to know how many servers players connect to, to play ..if you would be so kind to share...I play on all servers, high pop when I want PVP, low pop when I want loot.

zhrike 264 Posted February 6, 2014 I'll jump on a server, mid to high pop, and then stay on it unless the population dwindles and stays that way for a couple of sessions. Same plan for both regular and hardcore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Admiral_69 78 Posted February 6, 2014 Have a couple that I favourited. When playing I go for the highest pop, regardless of my status. I want the challenge / fear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InvisiMan2013 229 Posted February 6, 2014 I don't generally stay with one server. I tend to join based on the following, in order of importance: 1) Lowest Ping 2) Hardcore only 3) Daytime only (unless the day/night cycles are shortened, I'll stay with daytime). 4) Players (more is better) When the whole lost character thing happened, I saved a few servers that I knew were saving correctly to the hive, but I think that's fixed now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hells high 676 Posted February 6, 2014 Used to play on two different hardcores, but now I only play on my own. I'll only switch if I wanna join friends or wanna join a server with more people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sircharlie 2 Posted February 6, 2014 I pick one at random. I'm pretty much always on the move. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cj14 189 Posted February 6, 2014 I join whichever server has some slots left to join and have the lowest ping (in my country, lowest is 100) so it varies most of the time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nocturnal (DayZ) 85 Posted February 6, 2014 One for Regular (Clan server) For Hardcore, any with a high pop and low ping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
worst2first 71 Posted February 6, 2014 I play on the server with the lowest ping. That will change when the loot respawn is fixed and we can have tents and eventually bases. At that point the group I play with will be getting our own server and I'll stay on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mercules 1290 Posted February 6, 2014 I have about 7 in my history but I really only play on 2 of them. Basically I tried a bunch of servers until I found the two most stable for me and those are the two I log into. Typically I only log into the one unless something is going on with it then I join the other one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
