flygamer1 176 Posted May 21, 2014 They got them before they where removed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lazytek (DayZ) 12 Posted May 21, 2014 They got them before they where removed. Nope, later that hour the guy came back to berezino as a cap and found me eating. He said he got it from a guy, who said that peeps get em via the moddable servers. Idk what that meant tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLoneSurvivior 37 Posted May 21, 2014 Maybe hacker? Glitcher? He coul've spawned them i dunno Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted May 21, 2014 Nope, later that hour the guy came back to berezino as a cap and found me eating. He said he got it from a guy, who said that peeps get em via the moddable servers. Idk what that meant tho. Most players have them because they found them when they spawned normally. I had one as well on a character that lived long after those vests had stopped spawning, but eventually it became ruined and I tossed it. Anyway, that guy you met could easily have bullshitted you about where he got it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SFRGaming 718 Posted May 21, 2014 Knowing he was probably in deep shit since you found it off him, he probably went back to find you, giving you a BS excuse so he can avoid punishment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hiniberus 122 Posted May 21, 2014 Why did they remove it? I think it looks cooler than the UK assault vest D: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karmaterror 982 Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) Oh man I bet that guy was pissed to loose an item hed kept for so long....and cant get again. That's dayz though.....maybe an idea there... do like "featured" items that only go into the loot tables every now and then creating some truly rare items in Chernarus :) Edited May 21, 2014 by Karmaterror Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kakysas666 191 Posted May 21, 2014 Don't remember this item. Played since middle of January. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's dayz though.....maybe an idea there... do like "featured" items that only go into the loot tables every now and then creating some truly rare items in Chernarus :) I think that's essentially what they plan on doing with the controlled loot tables. Yeah, it'd be different to add "for a limited time only" items, and would be cool. But it's sort of the same concept as just limiting the amount of X available to the player at any given time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True, I sorta thought it would be more of a way to pull players back after long breaks....like this month Tac vests will be spawning in the tables....then for the next month something else, and so on, maybe with 6 items so each month its a diff one. Imagine someone posting a pic of there gear with all 6 featured items. Then they would play more on a certain month to hunt down a specific item instead of shelfing the game indefinatly and playing something else. It may be too much effort, and as you say too much like the already planned global loot economy :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhillyT 554 Posted May 21, 2014 I liked those. Why did they take them out of the loot spawns? He could have still had them (unlikely) or maybe it was hacked (more likely). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grimey Rick 3417 Posted May 21, 2014 This was mine, I lost it a little over a month ago now: They weren't "hacked" into the game, that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. They were taken off the loot table because they don't fit the female characters correctly (as you can see in my screenshot), but if you had one before they were removed, you were able to keep it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheWanderingMan 170 Posted May 21, 2014 Keep it because it's a legacy item! I've got a soda that never runs out as well which is strange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they can hack in guns and clothes, why not the vest? Strikes me as more likely than that many players who still had them still having them with all of the issues with rollbacks and erasures.

Are you referring to duping? Or are you saying people can make items appear whenever they want? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhillyT 554 Posted May 21, 2014 No clue. Was appearing on forum and with some of the youtubers. mint condition mosin and m4 with unlimited round mags are easy to find in Berezino on a couple of the servers we play on Rick, but admittedly, might be duping and not hacking in items.

lazytek (DayZ) 12 Posted May 25, 2014 Okay, i've killed another overlooted dude just now and he had Tactical Vest in pristine state ( love my headshooting skillz ) . This one just couldnt be on that dude for so long without being ruined or so.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This one just couldnt be on that dude for so long without being ruined or so.. The Tactical Vests and Press Vests were "plagued" (a good type of plague) with the curse of returning to Pristine condition after being hit by a zombie. I was able to maintain mine for so long due to this bug. e.g: If my vest would become Damaged or Badly Damaged after being hit, I'd simply let a zombie hit me a few times. Instead of ruining it, the zombie hits would actually have the reverse effect and make it Pristine. Edited May 25, 2014 by Grimey Rick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jubeidok 495 Posted May 25, 2014 (edited) There are new vests in the game, 12 slots instead of 8. It was called an olive high capacity vest. I found one yesterday. Pretty cool. Edited May 25, 2014 by JubeiDOK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
