People That ALT+F4 When Unconscious or Dead Disappear
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

For those that don't know, if you kill or knock a player unconscious and they ALT+F4 out of the game their body (and all their gear) despawns.

More often than not whenever I kill people (wether they have gear or not) it is common for them to ALT+F4. It seemingly has been happening more and more to me and my friends. And it gets to a point where it really gets annoying, especially when you know they have something you really need.

For example it happened to me twice yesterday and once when I was starving and I knocked a guy unconscious with an axe and began looking at his body and I noticed he had some good and while I was in the process of dragging it into my inventory, poof it's all gone.
To conclude I believe this "strategy" is plaguing the DayZ community

Have you tried memorising the exact place they died at? If you prone on top , you maybe able to see the loot by pressing tab. That works for me sometimes but is a bit tricky. If you are even half and inch off, you wont see the items.

It could be an entirely different issue from the one reported by me for all I know.

Well, he said he was in the process of dragging stuff from the body when it all disappeared. Unless he moved or something.

I am aware of the seperate body disapearing glitch and the items are still there, in this issue the entire body and all the loot is gone, even when moving to the EXACT place they died and looking in roughly 10ft radius still fails to show a body

Hello Promods.
The issue has been fixed internally and should be fixed on the stable version soon. Also, the fix is present in the current experimental version.
Regards,
Geez
