I just lost several geared characters?

Recommended Posts

I play on a specific server with all of my characters and it seems like all of them have been reset? Is anybody else dealing with this issue? I'm pretty upset, I lost an AK 101, and an Ak-m, an M4, and a VSS.. four characters gone, this was a community server. WTF

Then this is the wrong place to ask. Get in touch with the admins, if possible, and ask them why they thought a wipe was a good idea.

I know that PC servers also often practice wipe. Players asked the administration about the meaning of "wipe", the answers sound so that it is necessary to reset the game economy. If there is such a need, then it makes sense to ask a question here about the "game economy" - what needs to be changed in the game economy so as not to force server administrators to periodically wipe the server?
As I understand it - When the server is inflated in part by the individual player economy, this leads to an imbalance in the server economy, which breaks the loot extraction for all players on the server, or new players. In any development of events on the server, after some time, all players suffer from a broken server economy.
I know servers on which administrators often use wipe. Players left such servers. The player and his character to a lesser extent should depend on a non-game scenario or events. The player’s personal playing time should have more respect in the game than the administrator’s “forced” desire to erase all characters on the server.
So maybe the publisher needs to change the economy in the game? so as not to force players to lose their property, for reasons beyond their control, or to force server administrators to wipe.
1. It is probably necessary in the game to make an indicator of the player’s individual economy, which will be to limit the player to the extent of his economy outside the character’s inventory. This will force the player to assess the state of his economy, and return something to the economy of the game on his own. Here, the property accumulated by the player in tents, in cars, in hiding places, etc. must be taken into account. If someone robs a player’s cache - it depends on the server’s settings, the player will immediately receive a change in the “personal economy indicator”, or after some period of time, or only when you personally view your cache.
2. If a player independently, at his choice, does not return items to the server’s economy in order to stay within the boundaries of the “personal economy”, the economy independently extracts inventory from the player’s economy, according to random choice.
3. The player’s economy outside the character’s inventory is cleared automatically if the player has not played for a long time — any reasonable time period for clearing. The next step is to clear the inventory on the character, if the player has not played more than the established second period.
4. For how many players on the server is the basic server economy designed for? The basic server economy should automatically increase if the number of players on the server increases.

Perhaps there are still some nuances of the economy that need to be revised in logistics related to economic events on the server.

Serves you right for having alts.

Up there with duping/meatballing in terms of exploits.

Glad you lost your gear, people with multiple accounts are fucking the loot economy for everyone else.

Not only that but say somebody is raiding his base. He has 3 or 4 other characters able to quickly log on and defend while the raider may have thought it was clear.

Scummy.

I totally disagree here, like apples & oranges. Cheating with duped gear & meatballing is totally lame, should be rooted out, and reported even to XBL. Alternate accounts are maybe "bad form", at worst.

Awww somebody's going to cry because I spent more time looting than them. Of course how typical of the jealous I can't get off the coast cry babies. I killed a lot of people with these characters getting this gear. Maybe you should try getting better at the game.

So you're telling me that when I'm loaded to the Max and I've survived longer than you probably ever have, starting a new character is cheating to you? LMAO man, you guys will cry about everything won't you? Seems like you're just another inexperienced rookie that doesn't know how to survive. Jealousy is a bitch

I'm not jealous. Far from it. Nor did I say it was cheating (it kinda is btw)

Having multiple characters is a pussy way of playing the game. It shows you suffer from what is known in the community as "gear fear", you're too scared to have nothing so make multiple geared accounts so you always have something. Except of course when you get Dayz'd.

I'm glad you lost them all, no doubt they are all stacked again however owing to your experience in knowing how to "survive".

Go play COD.

I dunno man, never been off the beach. Best ask @Jake Blake about it. He's a dayz guru, what he doesn't know about this game isn't worth knowing. °waits with baited breath for the next pearl of wisdom from wise old Jake°

Obviously the OP doesn't realise that having more than one account playing on one server completely screws up the loot economy because he is hoarding it over multiple characters.

I'd happily call that cheating.
