"No message received for xx seconds"...?

[vfxtodd 125]

what does that sentence mean? Should it concern me?

It means the server is either restarting or has crashed.  Just disconnect and find a new one or wait for it to restart.

 

It could also mean that you lost internet connection while playing, but most times it just means the server is restarting.

It should only concern you if you are in the middle of a firefight. or haven't stepped out of your V3S since you found it in Krasnoe.

Be careful not to rush right back onto the server. I waited almost ten minutes, before hopping back on last night. I waited, because a zombie had just run up to me. I sidestepped and literally took one swing with my ax, when I got the "No message received ..." message.

 

When I logged back on, my jacket, vest, magnum, 30 rounds of .357, .357 speedloader, four boxes of 9mm and some other odds and ends were all ruined and my arm was broken! The zed was still there after ten minutes, beating the snot out of me.

Ahh. Funny. Just as I was reading these posts, I lost connection. Now I know. Thanks everyone.

You can use it to snoop ahead. Players will not dissapear but stay motionless for a minute or more so you can actually see if there was soemone in that room ahead or if it was just your nerves playing a prank on you. This saved my life once as I found two guys waiting in a room just ahead of me. I didn't log back in.
