Found myself today

[VonHabdekeiten 38]

So today I logged in and found this fellow hanging out right in my face :

 

 

Was startled at first, but noticed he wasn't really moving or going anywhere, just kept starring here and there, at me sometimes. Didn't like the looks he kept throwing at me though, so decided to end his life with a well placed headshot :

 

 

Proceeded to loot this guy, not really paying attention to the fact he's got the exact same gear as me :








...


Seriously though, I've been playing on experimental for a while now, but it's the first time I see such a thing as a duplicate of my character, who stays there whether I'm logged in or not. Haven't really heard of this happening to others neither, but I probably overlooked the talks about that issue if others experienced it too.. Any of you guys have seen something like that happen?

You need to watch some of those DayZ suicide prevention videos.

Honestly it's been a known bug for a long time and has been exploited too much. People dupe their gear this way and have infinite of all they want. Entire Clans wear the exact same attire from duping. Duping is a terrible exploit I wish will be addressed soon and fixed.

 

By now it should have been fixed. It first came to be known when they implemented the 30 secs timer when you log out.
