BlinkingRiki182 54 Posted August 31, 2015 (edited) I was playing with my mates on a private server yesterday. It was constantly raining. None of us had cold status or anything but I've noticed that my hands are shaking when I was aiming my gun. We decided to make a fireplace and get some stuff hot (e.g. some cans) to keep us warm. As I was warming up, suddenly a "hypothermia" status appeared out of nowhere. I was sitting near the fire for the next 5 minutes but I died regardless. I spawned at the coast and made my way north to meet my friends again. Another one of my friends got the hypothermia status after 10 minutes and died within 5 minutes, despite being around a fireplace. After some 20 minutes, I got hypothermia again, no cold status before that - just a sudden hypothermia that couldn't be fixed. I made a fire and sat inside. Died of hypothermia or the fact that I was burning, not sure. Have you guys had the same experience on 0.58? * Made a typo when searching for threads (same as the one in the title). Maybe a mod can merge this with the other threads? Edited August 31, 2015 by BlinkingRiki182 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chaingunfighter 917 Posted August 31, 2015 Player stats seem to be slow to update, so with all of that constant raining my guess is that you just got hypothermia very quickly and the game failed to tell you, because it happens in less than 10 mins IIRC. Granted, I haven't had any problems with warming up on the fireplace, so that may have been unique to your situation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZomboWTF 527 Posted August 31, 2015 i have heard reports of stored items in camps resulting in massive desync, did you guys run around spots where there might have been camps when making a fireplace? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlinkingRiki182 54 Posted August 31, 2015 i have heard reports of stored items in camps resulting in massive desync, did you guys run around spots where there might have been camps when making a fireplace? Probably, we were very close to Stary Sobor. The server had like 30 people on it. It was raining all the time. What we noticed however is that our third friend didn't get hypothermia and survived (hes clothing was the same as ours). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PrincessRobotBubblegum 27 Posted September 1, 2015 @ OP: It's definitely not just you. The hypothermia system is def broken. Same thing happened to a friend of mine while .58 was still in experimental phase. I'm surprised this was not fixed. He was sitting near a camp fire for about 8-10 mins and out of the rain and still died of hypothermia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackberrygoo 1416 Posted September 1, 2015 My guess is that you two succumbed to the half broken hypothermia system (it used to work much better, not sure what made it break in recent patches) . Was your friend sprinting more than you two ? Did he have a gun on back and in hand ? These seem to play into how hot or cold you get sometimes , but that could be in my head and your third friend just lucked out . And remember fires kill you if you stand on them , try and make a triangle of fires inside a house and sit in between them , if this doesn't cure your hypothermia status I recommend taking your shoes off and then on again to see if it updates your status as others have said the status may just be desyncing and not appearing until it's really dire. Also remember the difference ( I know you probably do) of hyperthermia and hypothermia, hyper is from being too hot and hypo is from the cold .. I only say this because many people don't realize you can get hyperthermia in the rain ... Best of luck , hopefully the temperature sustem is fixed very soon .
