Anyway, what exactly is your point now apart from nonsense ranting? Did you even change your server so your character could be forced to a new position? Because thats pretty much the point of this thread and you fail to deliver that information. Edit: Not that i am a fan of this...um...solution, a simple timer would have been more than enough to stop server hopping in combat at least from my point of view. What we have now is way over the top. Edited August 31, 2019 by MaVerick_GDZ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What we have now is way over the top. Apparently you've never heard of a typo... 6 is right next to 7, if you weren't aware. I'm glad you never mistype anything, when your 8+inch hands don't fit on your screen. Good for you. Also, sales figures mean absolutely nothing. A lot of people buy Apple, but that doesn't mean they aren't being ripped off and paying like 500% retail for substandard, barely better than entry-level hardware, and a proprietary software most app devs hate coding for... a lot of people buy things they think might be good, and they end up regretting it. How's the active player base, as compared to how many people bought the game? Hmmm..... anyway, My point, is that you get teleported when you change servers.... AND WHEN YOU DON'T. Pretty simple to understand, even using basic context clues. My car is still where I left it, yet I was teleported over a half hour away. ON THE SAME SERVER. Not sure why you would think I'd try to log into a different server and look for my car... Are you new? I didn't fail to mention anything, your inability to interpret the subject matter based on the thread title and contextual information within the post, is not my responsibility in any way, whatsoever. Yes, what we have way over the top... AND IT DOESN'T EVEN WORK RIGHT. The best part is, I grabbed my rad and spark out of the car when I logged... Now they're both gone and I have to find more, because this failure of a game malfunctioned AGAIN and deleted my items. Why is a solution, punitive to people playing legit, an acceptable recourse for the devs inability to properly perform their jobs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MaVerick_GDZ 148 Posted August 31, 2019 Dunno why you have the urge to bring this on a personal level. Pretty much the only sentence worth reading is the last one. Well, another thread better off ignored. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, took the radiator and spark plug out and logged out on the ground next to it. Interestingly, not even a week ago I was driving while the server reset. There wasn't a warning, I was on official. I spawned a hundred meters ish back, the car was probably another hundred meters from where I was at restart... Flipped upside down in a river. So, idk lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When a server restarts, this always happens. Players will leave a server first, then vehicles, or something. I've had cases where you log out and log back in .... on top of a different car even. #bizarroworldchernarus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parazight 1599 Posted September 1, 2019 (edited) To clarify, it's typical that you wont log back on to the server right where the car is if you were driving it when the server reset. That's the typical part. I'm pretty sure you weren't driving cars back in 2014. God may not know how long you've been playing, but you can check in the steam interface to see how many hours you've got. 😝 Edited September 1, 2019 by Parazight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, you read the post, and then decided to take a slightly related anecdote in response to another person's comment about resetting while driving? And you thought that was an appropriate response? Congratulations. If you don't like the attitude, take your slick talk to another post where someone won't give it back to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

insaneroy 3 Posted September 3, 2019 Cry. cry. cry. You are upset because you cannot get into peoples bases by server hopping or cannot loot military bases with ease with server hopping. The new teleport system for server change is here to stay so get over it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But due to all the exploits related to server-hopping there is sadly no way around resetting players positions. The hive is there so that you can join your friends gaming sessions with your character (and hopefully you want to stay on the same server together). If you want to hop, you have to do it consciously, accepting the position reset. Hahahah what? You literally made it easier for people to escape dangerous areas and situations.

You will always receive a warning while connecting to a new server, where you have the option to cancel the connection. That you are spawning right next to other players should theoretically not happen (or highly unlikely), but we will monitor this. This i have already proven with the DAYZ staff to be incorrect information. I was continously playing on one server for months and yet i was starting in different locations when i rejoined. The last time i informed DAYZ staff they removed the server from the official list, with about 20 others, and dumped them in the community listing and i presume that was because they had issues.

Undeceived 22 Posted September 30, 2019 The connection to the server fails (official DE server). Picking an alternative one throws where God knows where, which I don't want, so... Can't play as intended - thank you very much. 😞 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
