Guys need help, tonight me and a mate was on got loads of gear etc and i fell sick from a blood transfusion..

Now i went unconscious but the defib unit wouldnt revive me, i logged out and logged back in, and i was as you call it a fresh respawn, no items nothing

possibly a bug that the defib didnt work?

Defibs don't work as far as I know, epi pen didnt work either when I tried it.

Also, last night when we logged out at Vybor.. well I say logged out, the server we were on rebooted. I relogged as a fresh spawn, tried 10 ish servers, constantly a fresh spawn.. sometimes in different locations.

I just logged in, back at Vybor with my full gear again.

How strange.

Pretty sure they did some database maintenance this weekend. One of the devs said there could be issues like you described.

Edit - So sick of the default A2 sounds after going back to A2 with JSRS. The default running sound is awful. Sounds like I have put about 5 rounds in a mess tin and they are all rattling around.

This might just be the cynic in me but I've still not picked up the standalone and can't convince myself £20 is worth it at this stage... But based on the numerous gameplay videos I can't help but wonder:

What assurances do any of you actually have that the game will ever get to a stage where it resembles a polished experience?

All the time I played the mod and chatted to people about the standalone all anyone would ever say was how it would tackle all the problems and glitches the mod had. I understand it's in Alpha at the moment but it all just feels like a convenient excuse to capitalise on the existing communities love for the existing mod. Rather than pick over everything there is one thing that stands out for me:

Everyone knows how the melee combat was weird (in the mod) - you know how you're technically firing a super short range gun because Arma has no melee weapons. This was one of the things people would often cite as the type of thing that the standalone would address - "They're building it from the ground up with the standalone to get around the hard limitations of the Arma engine" they'd say... Well perhaps it was naive of me but this made me expect they might be implementing it in either a more suitable engine or their own engine, or a heavily tweaked version of the Arma engine, but that doesn't seem to be the case (from what I've seen). But that's okay because it's Alpha - so as it progresses they will somehow overcome the hard limits of the engine which they were never able to with the mod?

A pal of mine who already picked up the standalone cautions me when I said I might pick it up later in a sale - "based on what I've heard the price will only go upwards from this point"... This is all just starting to sound like tactics to get as many people to buy as possible on good faith, no? Does anybody get what I mean?

Exactly the way I feel and as much as I love reading the stories and banter on here I just can't force myself into buying this the way it is.
 
NW airfield markers server. I saw this guy running with no gun so I left him alone. I saw this dude in a orange helmet fully kitted out stalk this poor sod. Well sorry orange helmet guy but now you are dead, go pick on someone with a gun you saddo ;) Enjoy spawning on the coast.

Not me m8, I killed the guy near the wall, got his stuff. Then I ran to the trees and changed my attachments I got then I logged out after eating. I am alone btw, no one was shooting at me or anything and I was in the tree for a good two minutes.
 
Was with Neil79 - I went into hard cover in one of the camoflaged bunkers (the ones with only one entrance.

I killed a guy in the watch tower who had shot Neil, then sat and waited, whilst looking around me. Looked back at watch tower and there is another (or maybe the same - dunno how though) guy looking straight at my position...

I watch him for ages waiting for an opportunity to take a shot - he then disappears as if he has logged. Suddenly I see shots land in front of me from behind... and then I'm dead...

Looks like people are using server hopping to win in firefights.... losers.
 
Ran across a guy who said he had been killed at the NW airfield dressed in green, nice to come across someone friendly
 
Some guy tried shooting at us through the prison and then logged out. Then appeared looking through the side of the wall, actually clipping his head through..


***** nob head players
 
Yeah hope they patch all the hopping going around.Only happened to me one time when we trapped a guy in the Jail house and few mins later I see some dude running around me as if he was looking for something,he did not see me prone in the thick grass so I just blasted him in the back..checked the Jail house and it was empty.
 
Earlier today, someone in a clown mask was afk'ing near the beach in full gear in a bush, managed to pick pocket him and then the server started before I got his gun, he's gonna be ****'d off when he notices lol
