darkspecialistE4 4 Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) so i guess im interested in starting from the beginning with nothing. picked a random game and i had a backpack some flares and badages. ran for a little while till i logged out. next game i got into had me download some files and i started with a gun. is every server different where i will never be able to play the same character with nothing and how do i go about finding servers where i can load that character in without starting a new because i dont want to start a different toon with different stuff? also do i find those same servers through dayz commander or through the filter list in game?

applejaxc 2500 Posted May 21, 2014 There are OFFICIAL DayZ servers, which all share one character, spawn you with nothing, and are the "Real" DayZ game.There are PRIVATE servers (private hives, a rose by any other name) that can do whatever they want.

Steak and Potatoes 13480 Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) Just filter your region in your search bar, your character will be the same on all pub hive servers. The names will appear like this US280/UK4523 etc. Edited May 21, 2014 by Steak and Potatoes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let me know if this makes sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Precisely, your character saves across all servers on the public hive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ImDash 7 Posted May 22, 2014 Precisely, your character saves across all servers on the public hive.Well everything except vehicles you found on another hive and things like that, those don't save for obvious reasons, though your inventory does in fact save.
