boxman80 964 Posted May 25, 2012 Are the islands meant to be spwanable? I have spawned twice out on the islands of Otmel now and I'm not sure if it's a bug or a legitimate spawn. Anyone esle spawned out ther or in random places? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
salty (DayZ) 39 Posted May 25, 2012 Only once out of the hundreds of times I've had to respawn have I ever spawned on the island near Otmel. It's either a bug or intended to be extremely rare, and not very practical as far as spawn points are concerned. It takes several minutes just to swim to shore. :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It takes several minutes just to swim to shore. :/Not sure if it's been removed now as I've not spanwed there or heard any friends spawnign there lately. I think it's a good idea to have some island spawn or rarer spawns around the map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FrostDMG 398 Posted August 9, 2012 Its a stupid spawn cause you lose your gear, there are some random spawns such as spawning in Stary Sobor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aussiestig 681 Posted August 9, 2012 You guys know that you can walk from Otmel to land, right? There is a huge shallow part, you just need to find it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kebman 213 Posted August 9, 2012 Never spawned on an island. Would be cool if there were ferries, bridges or shallow part. Not so cool if you have to loose your gear to get to the mainland... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Ben+ 70 Posted August 9, 2012 Last time i died i spawned on on of the little islands by Otmel, and have spawned there before that as well. Didnt lose my backpack swimming to shore this time though, which was nice :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sostronk 334 Posted August 9, 2012 Ive spawned on the island near Otmel on one occasion. Not sure if intended or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josh225 129 Posted August 9, 2012 I usually don't get spawned on an island but when i do i actually find it rather amusing, i rarely get to go swimming in this game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FingersOHooligan 0 Posted August 9, 2012 My very first spawn was here, I though WTF how do I get to the coast, so I swam over. Didn't know there was a shallow path until I read AussieStig's post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
