Stagman70 210 Posted August 12, 2019 I know that if I'm playing on a public server and switch to a private one, I start out as a freshie. Does my PUBLIC SERVER character still exist, so I can play IT at a later date? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FearFokkol 131 Posted August 12, 2019 It should, the private servers had their own databases, thats why its a new character, so I just tried this where I run a character on one private server, then log of and jump onto another private server and had a new character, then when I went back to the original private server, I loaded in with the character I had on that server Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I play with a char on official and a different char on private, I switch back and forth between them. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would recommend joining one with accelerated night time, so you aren't waiting an hour and half for it to pass. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DayzDayzFanboy 1280 Posted August 13, 2019 Are private servers still wiping everything on reset or is that fixed now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would like to try out a private server, and maybe even donate to help keep it open if it's a good server. I would like to find one that has mild RP, with your occasional douche-bags sprinkled in to "keep it real". I would like to think that humanity wouldn't de-evolve into what you find on most public servers, with the CoD, BF, and PUBG burnouts running around being complete ass-hats.

That's something else that I had read, too (the servers resetting alot), and that is another issue that I would like to have a little more info on before I commit any time/money to a private server. I have a hard enough time keeping all my crap as it is without a server wiping me out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you're talking about character wipes, I haven't experienced that on the private server I play on, can't say the same for bases or stashes or vehicles etc. I do notice more random disconnects than on official servers tho. Also if you play on a private server and the the population drops to nothing and dies, you can't take your gear to another server, so there's that downside. :/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When they first came out, there were some people saying that characters were getting wiped whenever the server reset Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
