The login-at-the-coast bug:a deterrant to serverhopping?

[Quaby 93]

Seeing as, in my experience, if you log into a different server, you have about a 25% chance to spawn back @ the coast. Something to think about before you server-hop in the barracks ;).

To people who say, "this hasn't happened to me...."-I have never been killed by a hacker, but does that mean it never happens? This is a somewhat common bug for me and many others. You are a lucky one ;)

yup, its not a bug.. just a new system to help stop server hoppers i believe.. but then again i could be wrong >.> cause they dont post polls or anything on here

Could be, I always stay on the same server and the coast spawn didn't happen for me.

it IS a bug, nowhere did I say that it was not, because it is. It just happens to stop server hoppers haha

Our group who have our own server and only play on our own server after the latest patch we ALL spawned on the coast. Never been a server hopper, plus i doubt the DayZ dev team would actually come up with a preventative measure tbh. If they did it would be a first in terms of improving the game.

Their "updates" should be called "software grenades" since they just f**k s**t up. Latest patch was aimed at graphical glitch - yet its not fixed but its caused everyone to be left stuck on loading screen and IF they do manage to update successfully then there gonna spawn at the coast anyways. GG!

I think it's a bug, it's just random, I went from server a to b to c moving stuff from my tents to different servers and didn't spawn at coast at all. Then later I joined a server and spawned at coast straight away, someone also suggested that it happens if you join a 1.7.2.4 server on 1.7.2.5 but it just seems random to me.

@B0x73r, You think they would rather not update the game at all and listen to fags like you moaning about all the problems? Look at what happened with the graphical glitch in the last patch. Almost everyone bitched about them releasing a fix. What do they do? They release it faster due to the general consensus asking them to. They've done quite a fine job so far with the mod.

ya i agree they are doing a good job but the coast spawning has drivin me to stop playing for awhile.. at least untill it is fixed...I have crap internet where i am from and get stuck in loading screens ALOT and everytime I have to alt f4 to get out of it, which maked me spawn at the coast 100% of the time... then I spend 30 minutes running back north..has happened 5 times just today..thats 2 hours and 30 minutes of running back up north..

Rocket is doing an awesome job btw.. I just wish he would at least say something about this problem
