Theplanbpill 12 Posted August 16, 2012 If you're on the newest patch 1.7.2.5, then yes. It's a known problem. Had the samething happen to me. My private hive server reverted back to 1.7.2.4 for reasons like this and many others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prestondemaria@gmail.com 65 Posted August 16, 2012 Only play on servers that are 1.7.2.5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Professional N00b 347 Posted August 16, 2012 It's happening on 1.7.2.4 as well.My only advice is find a stable server and stay only on that one server. It seems to be a problem with changing servers, especially if you get stuck at a "loading" screen and have to close the program and log in again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Theplanbpill 12 Posted August 16, 2012 mean this is the final blow to the gamelol idk why people are STILL acting like this is a complete full release game they paid $60 for. You got it for free, don't complain too much. It's in Alpha. Welcome to DayZ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Womb Raider 92 Posted August 16, 2012 Final blow for short tempted people like you maybe. But I will stick with it as I love Day Z and the gaming experience it offers me, no matter how hard it is to get in game and no matter what I die from, whether that be hackers or enemy players. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlksnshN 127 Posted August 16, 2012 Happened to me for the first time last night. I was up near Vybor when I lost connection to the server I was in. I found a new server and I spawned on the coast in Elektro. Made my way back up north and had to leave for a while. Came back, respawned on the coast. I'm probably just going to shoot axe men until this is sorted. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Servers are empty sometimes or got hacked. You have to change servers. Man this really sucks! I mean there is no sense in going inland anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean maybe you like wasting your time without having an actual challenging game experience. Edited August 16, 2012 by Kingsix Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean there is no sense in going inland anymore.Or get on a private hive server where people can't log off when they see you on a hill sniping, log into another server and teleport behind you. Duplicating and hacking is quite a bit better as well. Plus the community is much nicer. People that are hacking dicks get banned. That simple. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tad@tadshackles.com 75 Posted August 16, 2012 THIS IS NOT A "PROBLEM"THIS IS INTENDED - ALLOW ME TO EXPLAINThey added this "feature" to discourage server-jumping assassins, combat loggers and server hopping farmers.Basically if you log in and out too soon (10 minutes) you will be spawned at the coast. The only two times this sucks is A) when you get frozen at "LOADING..." or if you are DC'd moments after logging in.Basically if you are in game and log out, you will need to wait ten minutes to log back in.Thats it, pretty simple. I know it can be annoying but it is not the end of the world. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tinit 54 Posted August 16, 2012 The problem here is that your switching between 1.7.2.4 and 1.7.2.5 servers thus loosing your postioning on the map and reverts to spawn u on coast..... all you gotta do is make usr eu stay on the same build version whn u change servers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I logged out this morning and did not play for 5 hours. I logged in after 5 hours (diffrent server) and started at coast - again. 5 hours is clearly more then 10 minutes.

ElectroLlama 4 Posted August 16, 2012 I'm not sure anyone has proved out what events actually result in your character appearing at spawn. Anecdotally, I was moved to spawn after playing a few hours on a server, logged on to another server the next day, couldn't get in and was stuck at "Loading", found another server, and I was at spawn. I'll also add that I think BattlEye is at least part of the problem. I had a friend in the server and right when I got to the "Loading" screen, my friend saw that BattlEye tossed me 'cause it couldn't connect.Right now I'm only using two servers exclusively, both on 1.7.2.5, and I have not had any further issues. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Logged out 7 hours ago on a 1 7 5 server and logged in 37 minutes ago in a 175 server. The versions have clearly nothing to do with it. Why isn`t Rocket saying a fucking word about this?

Theplanbpill 12 Posted August 16, 2012 Why isn`t Rocket saying a fucking word about this?Probably, like I already said, because this is a mod in Alpha. He is not trying to make it perfect for you. You are Alpha testing. Bugs will happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZedsDeadBaby 2287 Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) Maybe its the loading screen stuck bug - we will never know until someone is saying a word about this.They said a word about it: Alpha. That's the word. Things sometimes break in spectacular ways and they will try to fix them as quickly as possible. What more do you want? Do you want them to send you snippets of source code while they analyze the problem? Also, you have access to their bug tracking database if you want it.Honestly, what do you expect? I'm sorry rocket didn't personally give you a phone call to discuss what they're working on today. You'll get over it.
