dead or alive

[tonkin97 22]

2 days ago on my 2nd life, i decided to spawn as a female character.

Thinking i was going to die within 1 hour i was looting like a boss, 2 weeks later still alive i find a tent site and raid it. i get all the gear i need, gps night version and that thermal gun.

Very happy bunny with the thermal gun, and i found 2 gillie suits... i can’t wear them but meh i found out the hard way.

shortly after a friend pm'd me his clan server to meet up with him. so i find the safest bush to log off and join his server (i just had the thermal gun for 10 mins lol)

i join his server then i get message that im dead (which i expect due to it being alpha)

i was a bit dismayed but shit happens. However my toon has spawned in the middle of nowhere i mean, no trees no grass, so im off map.

i log off and go back to the previous server to go to the tent site i stashed some gear a while ago.

i login and im my female toon again but ive spawned south of cherno. which i thought was lucky but knowing its alpha won’t last, so i decided to go on a murder spree for a bit and then head up north to log off.

last night i logged back in and as i suspected i was dead and i created a new toon male this time. i head up north from cherno looting stuff and using the clouds as navigation (no map etc)

i get some ok gear and get to the lake up to the north and get lost loads of times (4 hour hike) i log off to go eat some curry (which should be in game, and your toon should get the runs lol)

i log back in again but im my female toon again with my thermal rifle etc..

thinking its bug i log off and try a different server.. same result.

am i lucky or am i going to be going back to my male toon. not bothered either way i did do a massive hike with the male toon so i got attached to it.

just wondering if you guys have had similar experiences with this and what outcomes you got?

Your female toon might have been on a private hive server. Private hives have different characters from the public ones.

I've had something similar happen to me before, I logged in and then played for a bit and then logged out and as I logged out I was alive. I then log back in and I get the choose your gender screen and have to start a new character, so I was like what happened, who knows, played for a bit, logged out. I then logged back in and my original character was still alive, this only occurred on certain servers though, so I'm not too sure.

hmm interesting, will give it more of a try tonight.

is there anyway you can tell if its private or public?

It will usually (at least from what i've seen) say so in the discription right before you enter the game.

Otherwise i'm not sure.

lol i just look at the low ping and players, possible my male toon was on a private server, and i dont take note of ther server names lol.

if thats the case ow well was fun when it lasted lol.

2nd note it doesnt explain why my female toon spawned at cherno from all the way up north i mean i lof odd at the lake so i decide which airfield to hit lol.

must be alpha bug.
