Figarus 1 Posted April 8, 2014 Hello guys,I was just out side of cherno when i logged off roughly 2 hours ago! Suddenly when i logged back in, i lost all of my stuff and i spawned as a fresh spawn at Elektro. Is there anyway i can get my previous guy back? or is this just a temp thing?

Demonica 311 Posted April 8, 2014 Did you first play on a regular and then on a hardcore server? You can have one character in each mode, so I'd check that. Same with experimental branch, one char for hardcore, one for regular. Other than that, character wipes are a sometimes occurring, annoying and known issue, it happens and mostly there's nothing you can do about it. Sorry :-/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wasse 0 Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) Having the same problem. Maby its a serverhopping "penalty".Well...i think it sucks...I logged out just to eat something and when i logged on i have a bambi character.I have tried hardcore and regular but my main character is gone.The new gus is not even the guy i have chosen in the character settings.I have played a loooong time and had alot of gear.

AzrailCross 48 Posted April 9, 2014 It happens due to server hopping essentially, yes. The end result is you need to keep track of what the last server you were on was for your normal and hardcore characters, if you log in and suddenly your a fresh spawn, revert back to the last server you were on before the current one and it'll properly load your character. If it doesn't, you were actually killed while logging out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Conrad_The_Comrade 577 Posted April 9, 2014 (Not sure if what I'm going to say is even correct, but hear me out) Their is also an Anti-Combat Log feature in which your character just sits down for 30 seconds (I think), so you may have just died after logging out.

alldaypk 63 Posted April 9, 2014 virtually empty server, safe, free from zeds and humans log out position, i think it was a character wipe or some sort of freak accident like falling through a wall whilst logging out. Also i can't find any local servers! NONE! maybe its maintenance wednesday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kichilron 8550 Posted April 9, 2014 There are a few topics out there that should give you an indication of what's going on: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/167343-servers-with-connection-issues-to-central-hive/ http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/154078-sometimes-my-character-doesnt-save-and-i-come-back-as-a-freshspawn/ http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/181949-logged-in-stuffs-gone/ Make sure to read if you need an answer of what's going on, as it's not always due to glitch / database-issues.
