mibz0r 141 Posted September 20, 2012 (edited) Yesterday evening I was heading for the NWA to gear up when my current home server was getting too dark to see properly and for fear of killing myself in the dark I logged into a daytime server, upon login I was presented with a death screen "Wierd but OK one more random death, so what" I think to myself and log onto a different server near Elektro, I loot the firestation and some other building before heading out to the co-ord's for a camp I have spending about 30 minutes as a fresh spawn, I then proceed to log back into my home server only to find myself in the middle of the field I had died in earlier that evening unable to move but with no timer, after logging in and out a couple of times I decided to try the 1.7.2.4 loading screen returns you to the beach trick and was resurrected at Kamenka with all my gear from the previous life.So is this a bug or did the hive decide that my earlier death was incorrect and resurrect me? TBH whatever happened I don't care as long as I don't just drop dead next time I log in.tl:dr I died, played 30 minutes as a new spawn, login again as old (dead) character, WTF Edited September 20, 2012 by Oldy1Kenobi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
svefngenglar 19 Posted September 20, 2012 Okay let's see if I can remember this correctly. Playing on a server, found a vehicle, driving up to NW. Server died. Logged in and was presented with fresh spawn. Picked male, geared up, looted, few hours played. Logged off with a CZ at a barn. Logged back in, respawned me at the spot the car was when the server died. Played for a few hours and logged off. Logged back in and got shot. Fresh spawn. Played for a few hours. Logged off and back in, respawned at the barn. That life stuck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris p. bacon 182 Posted September 20, 2012 I was shot by an AS50 while trying to kill snipers in Cherno. Naturally, I took off my headset and threw it on the floor, logged off, cooled down for half an hour and started again. I found myself back on top of the same building as before, with 12,000 blood, unconscious and bleeding.This has happened multiple times. I'm pretty sure that servers that are laggy enough take a while to actually register that you died and if you leave before that happens, you can respawn again.

mibz0r 141 Posted September 20, 2012 The server I died on was very quick to load and also empty, so my only guess is that the hive didn't register my death because realistically nothing killed me, still doesn't explain playing as new spawn for 1/2 hour on a public hive server in between time though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same thing happened to me. I was about 1000 meters away from NW airfield, logged off. logged back on about 8 hours later, insta-death screen, spawned near coast, but i kept my kill count and had absolutely no gear. just re-geared with basic crap, so i'll see what happens when i log in later today.

mibz0r 141 Posted September 20, 2012 My bug is different though because I still have the gear from my guy who supposedly died, I'm just hoping I don't login tonight and die or end up as the 1/2 hour old character I was playing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
