Spawned In Ocean (Not where I logged out)

Recommended Posts

This happened initially earlier at 6:00am~ ish. I was unable to report the bug at this time.

Date/Time: 12/06/2012

What Happened/What I was doing: I logged in to the same server I had logged out from (in a village fairly nearly the middle of the map, well away from the coast or any water) and was swimming out at sea, unable to sea any land to work out my actual location.

I tried relogging and found myself in the same place with another "person" (afk/lagged copy of myself) stood floating in mid air next to me.

Location: Within Staroye area, north east side of the village. Near the barn by the dirt road. Ran out from the front of the barn (I don't think I ever actually went in it, just very close) and laid by the nearest tree I can remember. I wasn't touching the tree itself but still underneath the edge of it. It was not within a forest. See attached for map location.

Side Note: My horizontal mouse sensitivity was incredibly low for the duration of being in the sea; more so than usual when on land or swimming.

Current Version: V1.60 (Or so the game says, however we have managed to get on servers that are V1.70)

System specs:

Processor: Intel Core i5-2500K CPU @ 3.30GHz (3.6GHz)

RAM: 8GB

Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti

Hard-drive: 500GB HDD

(New System)

Initial Server: Dayz Zombie RPG - EU1 (v1.7.0) dayzmod.com

Random Server(Logged into afterwards to test if it remained a server-specific problem): I was spawned in the sea on a different server; it was a different region server (germany or US).

Relevant Timeline: Hour+ of running on the same server after changing to it from a different server. Met with another player at barn in Staroye and dropped some loot. Laid down under a tree (not directly touching the base of the tree) and aborted mission. Re-logged: Problem occurred.

Regards,

Ray Smears

NOTE: I was running the game as standard through combined operations on steam. Since then I have changed the arma 2 to compatibility mode for Windows XP Service Pack 3 (Trying to sort a graphics lag problem). This change of compatibility seems to have made no obvious difference to the problem.

NOTE2: I have had to post this on the forums more than once to get it to appear.
