Personal Servers?

Recommended Posts

So I have been doing some reading about personal servers and how many of the DayZ fans dont like them because the hosts start server, loot a city and then restart the server.  Yeah, I can see that as cheating and its not cool, but its really no different that looting the military base and then server hopping to a no/low pop server to do it again.  Yeah, chances are you will run into someone but really... what are the chances of that because the map is so big?  Not high at all, but sure they are there, whatever.  

 

Anyway, this brings me to the easy fix for that problem.  When a server starts or restarts it must go through a day night cycle before loot spawns.  Wow!  Problem fixed!

 

Or you can just say that your character file is held by the server you are playing on and that would prevent server hopping all together.

 

The biggest reason I want to run my own server is because my internet is not very good, and in the past I have had to go a days without internet but still want to play games and when games are like DayZ where you cant host your own server I miss out on being able to do what I like to do, play games.
