TheHermit (DayZ) 22 Posted November 24, 2014 I've seen it on streams quite a few times. In a weird kinda way (cuz I know it breaks the game, but) it really is cool for a noob such as myself to get to see all the various types of loot in one place.NWAF is ridiculous with this bug sometimes. I have not come across it in game myself, I would say actually the opposite lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vprgtsr001 6 Posted November 24, 2014 the loot seems to be glitched in these areas, i've only found it in the military police buildings( do people still call them that?) and in barracks but it's fucking annoying since you can't find anything in the piles and they don't seem to spawn clips or ammo just guns and clothes. i just found my first today which is what brought me to the forums. I actually found it in a warehouse, house, shed combo. i've never seen so many pickaxes and batteries in my life. i didnt want to start a new thread since its related but my question is. What truly effects loot spawn on persistence servers. I get that non-persistence was the old way of new loot on server restart. And i love persistence now that, that doesnt effect it and people dont camp out waiting for restarts and server hop looking for gear. But if its not restarts what causes new loot? I'm not talking about these massive caches either. Just loot spawn in general. I read an article on google saying once you enter a zone and you leave it, if its empty for x amount of minutes loot will spawn. but is there truth to that? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omarra2 2 Posted December 2, 2014 (edited) While looting some barracks, i noticed insane amounts of loot. Is this bugged? I have an album with images i screened. Here is the album: http://imgur.com/a/Y4qOl Edited December 2, 2014 by omarra2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Johnny Depth 167 Posted December 2, 2014 Loot distribution is broken at the moment. It will probably get patched when .51 rolls out 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rags! 1966 Posted December 2, 2014 This is totally normal. You just have the "Server Hopper Vision" setting turned On. Just go to Settings > Gameplay and then disable it. It's the option underneath "Head Bob". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EHNR 15 Posted December 2, 2014 This is totally normal. You just have the "Server Hopper Vision" setting turned On. Just go to Settings > Gameplay and then disable it. It's the option underneath "Head Bob".Not funny to troll people. Its a bug that currently appears in the 0.50 Patch, Should be fixed in the next patch. It happens because the Server(s) that have persistence enabled do not Check if theres loot on the ground already so they respawn the loot without picking the other loot up first,So whenever a Admin restarts his server 200 times you'll get all these items at 1 spawn location. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can sit in one of these loot bombed rooms and watch the gear appear before your eyes without a reset being involved at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TGPstolas 20 Posted December 3, 2014 Once found 4 Aks in one barrack room alone. like 6 or 7 in total in one barrack building before. it gets pretty ridiculous. its a persistence glitch right now, items dont dissappear when they should, and add up over server restarts 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
