Weyland Yutani (DayZ) 1159 Posted December 1, 2014 Who told you that ?A random did. Was hoping it wasn't true, got some gear I need for a film project...silly stuff like lamps for a night scene. So I'm guessing this isn't true? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boneboys 7988 Posted December 1, 2014 Tents I believe, need to be packed up before weekly maintenance.Maybe someone can add to this... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChainReactor 922 Posted December 1, 2014 The last global wipe was announced weeks before the update. No announcement was made for 0.51 and the push to stable is aimed for next wednesday, so i highly doubt there will be a wipe. As Boneboys said though, persistance is still work in progress, so containers left on the ground like tents or backpacks should be picked up prior to the weekly maintenance to make sure not to loose any stuff. This is not a wipe though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

call him Steve 46 Posted December 1, 2014 Some servers still have the "wipe notification" running, as well as other out dated update notes. They (dev. team) have NOT said any wipe is coming down the line. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Etherious 907 Posted December 1, 2014 No, there will NOT be any 0.51 wipe. xD Whoever told you that is drinking the vodka too much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
odin_lowe 3686 Posted December 1, 2014 There's a possibility someone saw the old message while playing, but it would be needed in my opinion, as the last time we had the global wipe was mostly to get rid of the duped items, and it's currently the same situation if not worst than before. I never saw so many SMERSH vest everywhere in many Youtube videos without ever seeing one spawn.... :( The duping will be a problem until we get the single item signature making duplicates disappear. When we get this, I hope we get another global wipe. Of course I got a lot of stuff on some characters that is somewhat rare and that I'm proud I have in my inventory, but 75% of enjoyment I get from DayZ is starting fresh and gathering specific items for my character. Anyway, it's only a rumor, but eventually we'll need more wipes to get rid of all the duplicates. :thumbsup: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We will definitely be getting multiple wipes between now and release, I'm almost certain of it. There will be need for it to occur again. There are no plans for character wipes in relation to version 0.51 rolling out on stable branch servers.There you have it, folks. Definitive word. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jukaga 271 Posted December 1, 2014 I'd support character wipes with each major update, but I don't really care that much either way. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
