Anyone know a list of servers that have items dropped while swimming - off?

Recommended Posts

Saw six launcher/dayz launcher had an update. Not DayZ I believe, just the launcher. Among the change log I saw an option "Servers can turn off items dropped while swimming"...or something along those lines.

What servers do you guys know of (if any) have that feature off?

Why do I want that off? Because its too buggy with it on.

friend: "Hey! Dude! I found a boat!"

Me: "Really? Awesome :D get in and hide it"

friend - *gets in driver seat...falls into water? Then gets into boat*

friend - *hides boat...realizes all his items are gone*

friend - *goes back to harbor where boat was*

friend - *sees my bag and all his items*

friend - "WTF, I just lost everything...I can't reach my items from this point and if I do get the items, I fall into the water and lose the items again"

*zombies glitch through the harbor and kill him*

me: "wow that is...lame. Alpha is alpha"

Okay so next day...

Me: "I wonder if your items are gone"

Friend: "Just keep going, that harbor is so glitchy"

Me - *prone on the railroads, no where close to water*

Me : "WTF, that is just freakin BS...even if it is alpha"

Friend "What happened?"

Me "I stood up on the railroads, game froze...I got teleported into the water and I just lost all my items"

Friend "That's stupid"

See? Items dropped while swimming is too annoying. Alpha or not, I hate that "feature".Game doesn't need that on with bugs like that.

So again...if anyone read that or the beginning of the post or just skipped to the end. What server(s) have that lame feature off? No items dropped while swimming. I would love to play on a server like that, and that toggable feature was part of the change log when I updated the launcher.

Or if anyone knows what to search for. I see a lot of 3rd person off (which is great) and servers have no name tags (great) and no crosshairs (great). Don't see any that mention items dropped while swimming, however.
