DYLAN ALONE 4 Posted September 12, 2012 After finding a Remington at the Station in Chernogorsk I decided to make a midnight run to the outskirts of the city with the intention of moving inland. In the hours before I had gathered enough sustenance and equipment to allow me to make the journey. After coming across a small town I had checked a warehouse and moved into to check the... checkpoint building. Here, I found two cans of Coke which were quickly swapped out for my two cans of Pepsi as per my real life preferences. As well as a Makarov which I had actually previously gathered magazines for in the city. I moved into the surrounding forest and logged out.The next day when I logged back in I had lost my Makarov and in what is perhaps the most devastating part... lost my two Cokes, which had been replaced with my previous loadout of two cans of Pepsi. NOOOOOOO! After getting over the initial devastation I decided to question the forums as to why this has happened. I am obviously not blaming it on some hacker even though they are known for stealing my Coke, and I understand how buggy this game is. I have been playing for a few months now and, as far as I know, nothing like this has happened to myself thus far. From what I saw through my tear filled eyes my initial loadout from prior to leaving the city was still on me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeoblong@yahoo.com 614 Posted September 12, 2012 Yup picked up a AS-50 at a chopper crash site, ran into the woods logged off for work. Next day BLAM! CZ 550. :( But hey the gods smiled on me that day because I shot a Bandit and got my favorite sniper rifle the glorious DMR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rage VG 4033 Posted September 12, 2012 That post was hilarious. Beans for you.Also, I think it's because you were slightly rollbacked upon logout. What was the timeframe between getting the makarov and logging out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SmashT 10907 Posted September 12, 2012 Server could have had an issue updating to the hive or you logged out too soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What was the timeframe between getting the makarov and logging out?Literally about five seconds. I decided to get off at that point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rage VG 4033 Posted September 12, 2012 Literally about five seconds. I decided to get off at that point.There's your culprit. You logged out before the hive could register the change in inventory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Angel Knight 427 Posted September 12, 2012 There is a delay when you make changes to your inventory before it saves to the hive; this is the same delay that dupers have been exploiting since day one. Just wait a minute or two before logging out to make sure your inventory updates correctly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sheepdawg 278 Posted September 12, 2012 I remember when the save state was in the debug menu. IIRC it was about 45 seconds between "saves". I usually lay there for AT LEAST a minute before logging out. I also suggest NEVER logging out in a building because you never know who is coming in, or who is logging in behind you.
