So if you had an M4 before the 0.45 patch

[TheWizard14 372]

And you still have it now, does your character still keep it, or does it magically disappear so you can only find it at the helicopter crashes. 

 

If you are still able to have your M4, but it only spawns in helis now, I'm staying the fuck in the forest lol.

I still have mine.

Wth my character got wiped.

[jukaga 271]

Either way who cares. Wiped? Be glad, you get to start fresh with the new loots!

I had a similar experience.  I logged in with a default character but I had a little red text box in the lower corner that said the server couldn't contact the central server and they were giving me a default character.

 

Ran around with reckless abandon.  I actually love starting fresh, though I hate dying.

Sod going to heli crashes...I think the easiest way to get an M4 now is to wait for other players that have them and... you know...  ask if you can have it.

I've been playing EXP hardcore for so long, after dieing today I decided to hop onto Regular and found this character.

 

 

Now on Hardcore all I really want is an AK. Why DayZ gods, why?! :c

But anyway, hopefully this will mean less M4 kiddies roaming around. Wait, the AKM is the new M4 for 12 yr olds to KOS everyone.

From what I've heard the AKM sounds like a better gun too =P

 

Hopefully the drum mags are as rare as people say, though it won't take dupers long to saturate the loot economy I'm sure.  Otherwise it would have been a nice change at least to only have to deal with 30 round mags regularly instead of 60.

I was always the wierdo that would use 30 round mags with my M4, occasionally picking up a 60 rounder to restack my ammo. :P In experimental I followed that same principle, picking up a 75 round drum for the AK, saying "coorrr", and unloading all of the ammo out of it. THey definitely seem more rare now in the stable push.

Generally I try to stick with the same type of mag and get three of them, whatever the type may be.  Makes it easier to reload and you don't end up with the stupid change mag options when you scroll menu.

Still around like in the mod when they "removed" a gun. Still found thermals in a remote tents once every blue moon. They had to set the damage to 0 to get rid of the .50 cals.

But yeah, AK will be the new semiautomatic on the DM zone soon enough.

[TheWizard14 372]

welp now I just lost my character again for no apparent reason.

Player's next character will not be saved into database if he disconnects after death
