Izziee 128 Posted July 3, 2012 The Dayz team are aware of your issue and are trying to fix the issue at the present time. Don't panic!As of yesterday 02 July (Not sure of the time, I would guess around 11GMT) the central servers were hit by a DDoS attack. This effected ALL servers and gave the players different issues, such as stuck on the waiting for character screen or loading. You might have also been in the game at the time and seen a lot of Red/Yellow broken chain link icons on the screen. You also may not have been able to loot items, and you may not have been able to find your servers and/or they were grey. You may have even had errors such as incorrect server version, or something as simple as massive lag.As I take it, they were working through the day/night to fix this. If you currently have an issue with Dayz it would be in your best interest to just LEAVE IT ALONE for now. You may end up breaking something that isn't broken on your end. I made this mistake and ended up updating battle eye and verifying the client on steam. Up until recently they were still having issues with the DDoS attacks, and now they have taken this time to go into maintenance. http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=26199Currently the servers are planned to be back online at 4PM GMT and so far it's going smooth. I advise everyone to sit back and chill. I'd recommend that you don't all rush to log on and 4pm either and add to the servers load. If you try to play now, there's a good chance that you will lose items (IF and that's a big IF you manage to get on), so be warned. You can follow Rockets twiiter at http://twitter.com/#!/dayzdevteamI am in no way affiliated with the team and/or mod, I am just a player who wishes to play as do you. Do not start bitching because you think it's unfair, they are not a big games company, they do NOT get paid for this, and they offer you a FREE mod. You buying Arma to play this isn't anyone's concern. Hope this helped with some of you not knowing what's going on.Edit/Update - For those of you who respawn in the debug forest, Viperax is discussing about moving you to the beach (READ! Discussing, it may or may not happen depending on the out come). Page 60 of http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=26199&page=60Gear will NOT be restored if you have lost it. It is impossible.

Currently it's 13:00 GMT. It's 14:00 in the UK and I would guess it's 15:00 in holland (PM so in 12 hour timings, it's 1PM GMT - 2PM UK - 3PM Germany "I think" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
