Macenzie 79 Posted July 12, 2012 It forces the server to save the location of the car so it will be there when the server restarts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zeromentor 169 Posted July 12, 2012 Yeah, don't put things in cars and hope they'll come back, they probably won't. Once had a truck, van and bus with some serious loot (stole it from some random people), few days later the server moved and when it finally came back they had wiped it. None of my stuff, nor the other camp was there. Checked a few more times, gave up.Oh well. Either keep it on you, or spread it out over a few servers incase one goes down or they all get wiped on a patch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shortbus #kBd 2 Posted July 13, 2012 I've had 2 tractors and a quad with all my best loot on them for weeks with no items lost due to server restarts. I did however once have a quad turn into a GAZ and lost the loot on it. If someone was trolling me and put a GAZ in place of the quad it would be the funniest things I could imagine, but I'm pretty sure my quad just turned into a GAZ. That being said, one of the best times I have had was driving that GAZ through electro getting shot at and honking the horn the whole time. (: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shortbus #kBd 2 Posted July 13, 2012 And yes we died just outside of electro because my buddy lagged out of the car and he was driving. Both got killed, car got destroyed when I started driving but it was fun as hell even if I did lose a Bizon SD in the melee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
