Malum 1 Posted July 16, 2012 Hey, I was wondering if I could get an actual confirmed time, on how long you can go w/o using a Vehicle before it despawns? I've heard it being all from, Two Weeks, to one day. If anyone can link me/copy+paste official something or other about this, please do! or just tell me if you know lol. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kellanved 5 Posted July 16, 2012 (edited) Vehicles seem to be a strange one for me, the first week of playing my group got about 4 vehicles, a GAZ, ATV, BUS, tractor and some something that looked like a Skoda. The ATV rolled for no reason far from our camp, we couldn't right it again so gave up and lost that one, the Bus got destroyed by a sniper killing two of us who were joyriding around inside. The Gaz and Skoda both disappeared around the same time that the server we were on had troubles with hacking. Someone was doing something to the server because all players were suddenly spawned 200m up in the air and dropped to our deaths, this happened twice.Afterwards both cars had disappeared and didn't respawn in their usual places. I suspect - although can prove nothing - that hackers stole the vehicles by examining database code and determining where they were, then they spawned and stole them. This has been reported before by the community but like I say I have no evidence and so both cars have simply disappeared into the ether.I also have a sneaking suspicion that vehicles are being stored off of the map, which obviously needs addressing if true, I'm half tempted to go north to the edge of the map and run east to west looking for a collection of cars, bikes and heli's. Of course both cars could simply have been stolen legitmately by other players, after all, I found one of them 'deep in the woods' which is actually a silly place to put vehicles 'cos they stand out a mile away when you are running though the forest, found the bus and tractor in the woods as well.Going for a bicycle next, cheap, fast, no fuel and easy to hide but if the hacking thing is true then don't store vehicles near your main camps, don't want some scumbag spawning onto your car then running over all your tents 'cos they were right in front if it.
