Crazy_Spider 235 Posted February 12, 2014 I seem to have two different characters, with different equipment, but still on the chernarus map. It's really weird, and it can get annoying with the 5 minute cooldown, because I log-in to DayZ, get that character that I don't want, then I have to wait 5 minutes to go to a normal server, anyone else having this problem?

Geckofrog7 1168 Posted February 12, 2014 It's not a problem, you're going between Hardcore and Normal servers. (You have different characters in each one.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caboose187 (DayZ) 3036 Posted February 12, 2014 It's not a problem, you're going between Hardcore and Normal servers. (You have different characters in each one.)Not true. I've stopped playing regular and switched to hardcore only abd my regular character appears on some of the hardcore servers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weedmasta 784 Posted February 12, 2014 Not true. I've stopped playing regular and switched to hardcore only abd my regular character appears on some of the hardcore servers You are probably just joining normal servers by mistake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caboose187 (DayZ) 3036 Posted February 12, 2014 You are probably just joining normal servers by mistake.negative. I list them by hardcore to regular. When I get home from woek tonight I'll look for it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iarfur 32 Posted February 12, 2014 This has happened to me too, I'm starting to wonder if there's some servers that are incorrectly listed. Several times I've ended up in a regular server even tho it clearly said 'hardcore' in the list, and no, I'm not misclicking, I sort servers by type, not players/time/whatever.

Ive got money its a regular server with the name of a hardcore. Servers are ran by players. Talking ages of 8 years old to damn near dead if Grandpa Bad Ass plays games too. They are the ones who name the server. When you purchase/rent a server the name will be based on the version you have loaded. So if a server was Hardcore then changed to Regular by the owner and they haven't gone out of the way to change there name then your gonna log into your other character. Same goes for the guys on Regular who say "I logged into a server and I was wiped but as soon as I joined another I had all my gear". You just joined a Hardcore server listed as Regular. Or it could be Hive issues but I don't see how two separate Hives (Servers) could be crossing information without having a direct link via cable or software. Trick is to find 10 servers and float between them. I know Favorites don't work and History is iffy but a pen and paper always work...

rybo 171 Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) it is not in the name, it is in the actual server type. I list my servers by hardcore first and it's given me my regular character. I believe you. But double read my post I had to edit some extra information in. I'll type "Hardcore" in my filter and still pull up a server or two listed as "Hardcore" when in fact it's a Regular changed by the owner/renter. The in game filters isn't going to fix your problem just mitigate it. There is no "Hardcore vs Regular" filter at all atm...fyi even in the Game Type filter doesn't work fully. Half of that information comes directly from the owner/renters sever. So if they didn't update there .SQF file it's gonna pull up on the list. If that's what your getting at?

fitzee 248 Posted February 12, 2014 Hi. I've read on these forums that there are some servers set to hardcore, using the hardcore settings but somehow mistakenly connected to the regular hive. Regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty sure he means he sorts by server type(by clicking on it as I do), not by typing hardcore in the filter. Regards. Edit: you know the same way you can sort by ping when you click on ping. The filter is pretty much a waste of time, unless your looking for some particularly named server i.e. 'the church of Zed Leppelin' Edited February 12, 2014 by Romeo Foxtrot 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But after thinking about it after every patch doesn't one of these post show up. Seems like they have a Hive conflict issue. Or as I suspect server .SQF needs a update.

MuchHigher 65 Posted February 12, 2014 I recall rocket mentioning something that the servers need to be setup to connect to the correct hive. It's probably some setting not being setup correctly by server hosts. I too have also noticed the problem you are experiencing. I favorited a few hardcores that work fine, you should do the same.
