krebsy 11 Posted February 26, 2014 Slightly miffed today on logging on as I went to open up the compass in my pocket only to find that since logging off it had gone from worn to ruined seemingly in an instant. Luckily I carry a spare, so checked that and it had gone from worn to badly damaged (and barely readable). checking everything else over and my pants are now ruined (Though I was close to Cherno on a max pop server so understandable :) ) but both my water canteens were in a ruined state along with other bits and bobs being degraded severely. All the weapons are fine though.... Did someone shoot me through the backpack/clothing without me noticing? :(. K. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gobbokirk 546 Posted February 26, 2014 Zombie hits? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Sinister 167 Posted February 26, 2014 Zombie hits or a long fall you survived magically by glitch id say?, possibly you were getting beaten on by a zombie when you logged out, as your character stays in the server for 20 or 30secs nowadays i think it is, after you log out, may of heard you and come over and beat on you till your guy was fully out perhaps. Someone may of shot your backpack i guess, but dont know if its possible to get hit there and for it not affect your character at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krebsy 11 Posted February 26, 2014 well, I was running up the hill from the power substation hearing zombies al the way but there were none in site (though they sounded close) and I never got hit by anything... Seems to be a Glitch I guess... :(. Still 100% healthy though..... K. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iBane 381 Posted February 26, 2014 I believe items can only be damaged if you fall, take hits from zombies, or are damaged by other players via fists, melee, or guns. Rain doesn't cause damage and there is no static item-decay process in place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iBane 381 Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) One other thing...recent updates have added correct textures for some items with textures didn't properly reflect their condition. If you've been offline for a while it could be this, but I doubt it. Edited February 26, 2014 by iBane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krebsy 11 Posted February 26, 2014 Nope, definitely the condition of the items changed.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
louist 163 Posted February 26, 2014 I believe items can only be damaged if you fall, take hits from zombies, or are damaged by other players via fists, melee, or guns. Rain doesn't cause damage and there is no static item-decay process in place.Item usage also causes decay. The screwdriver I was using as a can opener became ruined after using it.

oregonized 673 Posted February 26, 2014 NEVER keep anything important in your pants slots. It will only cause you heartache. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
