DoctorCrazy 4 Posted August 24, 2012 Hey guys, anyone wanna group up and find vehicles? I've been playing DayZ for a few weeks now and I've found it SOOOO hard to find vehicles, haven't even found broken ones in need of repair. I've tried quite a few different servers to see if that was the problem, but i think there are just so many hoarders of vehicles its close to imposable to find them by yourself unless you find a newly created or reset server. Anyways if anyone is down to go Vehicle searching in a group pm me or write your steam tag below. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charles Manson 0 Posted August 24, 2012 the reason you aren't finding them is because on 4 out of 5 normal hive servers, all the vehicles are 50 grids off the map. Once people figured out you could still keep vehicles off the map as long as you moved them an inch every 24 hours, all the people who had camps out there just use the vehicles as their camps.Some private hive servers the admin sets rules that any vehicle detected off map will be deleted if left there longer than x amount of time. Usually an hour or so...On official hive servers... since it's 24 hours, you aren't gonna see any until that's changed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
☣BioHaze☣ 7337 Posted August 24, 2012 Vehicle saving is broken in 1.7.2.5, btw....I can go days without finding vehicles and then find many in a row.I was even able to fix an ATV all by myself the other day. (Hours of walking involved.)I went 3 days without a single vehicle or camp and then found 6 vehicles and 2 small camps in 2 days.Persistence pays off.Definitely try different servers.I know where a motorcycle keeps reappearing on a particular server due to the bug.Too bad the server has barbwire grief on almost all of the best loot spots.....
