MperorM 8 Posted August 29, 2012 Have anyone else tried logging out and then logging in without the items you picked up from the last 5 min. This just happened to me with nvg's though I already had a pair so it wasn't that big a loss. Also anyone tried logging in with all your ammo and sometimes guns being completely different ?

sellasie_83@hotmail.com 27 Posted August 29, 2012 Ive heard you only loose items like this if you server hop. You seem to have farmed NWE? Well.. maybe you joined a server who wasnt up-to-date? Thats why the items you looted the last min went away? I dont know but its cause of the server hopping, im sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MperorM 8 Posted August 30, 2012 Ive heard you only loose items like this if you server hop. You seem to have farmed NWE? Well.. maybe you joined a server who wasnt up-to-date? Thats why the items you looted the last min went away? I dont know but its cause of the server hopping, im sure. It takes me 15 minutes to find a server that will let me in with my internet... (0,4 mb upload speed) So If I decided to server hop it would be less affective than staying on one sever all the time. Nearly everytime I log out I loose the items from the last min or so. Maybe thats also my internet causing that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Draxx (DayZ) 61 Posted August 30, 2012 I have encountered that issue as well. The problem was, the server did not respond. I realized it, when I saw the Zeds standing around (but with the movement animation - just movement on one place.) I also had a yellow connection. Everything I gathered during that time was not send to the hive. So everything you loot at the time when the server is not responding, you won't get. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaoai 16 Posted August 30, 2012 There is a very simple solution to this.But first i will tell you what happend to me.I had the almost perfect setup, M4 CCO, PDW, NVG.. you know.. i trip over a zombie break my leg, faint, then zombie kills me before the timer goes down.Ok, so i'm pretty frustrated by now, this was at the town far mid-west of the map by the way, i start running back, find my stupid body, get ALL gear back! :DSo friggin happy by now.. logout-login to save the character incase of server crash/restart (no message received). I log back in and i have NOTHING.. well yes i have my bandage, painkiller and the fleshlight for lonely moments in the dark.Ok, any way the solution to this is that you need to wait for some time to let the hive save your current character status.As you know, sometimes you seem to get stuck on "Waiting for character to create" screen, just to have it loosen up and start loading right when you think, *fuck this shit, i'm outta he.. oooooh here we go!*That means the hive connection is pretty slow and this counts for everything the hive does with this server, this day. So keep your stuff for at least 10 or 15 minutes to be sure, then it really SHOULD be saved with no doubt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaoai 16 Posted August 30, 2012 Yes if you are desynched (red chain) or even yellow, then you should never logout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RaysGoodLiquor 93 Posted August 30, 2012 If you're items are getting loose, just lay off them for a couple weeks until they tighten back up. You can always suggest that they start doing kegel exercises. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
