Unexpectedly logging in on the beach.

Today was the second time that I logged in and unexpectedly found myself on the beach in the SE. Both times I logged out in the North. Once in the NW and once in the NE after setting up a tent. Being that these are the only two times that I made my way to the North I'm batting 100%. Is anyone else having the same issue? Is it a game mechanic that I'm not aware of?

Yeah......It's "corrupted data" I believe that forces your character to spawn on the beach with all your previous gear etc. It's just a problem of location - don't freight though, it could be way worse. You could lose EVERYTHING and start at the beach again, now that would be way frustrating.

Optimism ftw!

PS it has happened to me, but only once.

When everybody starts back at the beach it's a crazy mad dash back inland... I saw so many bodies... Poor bastards XD
