Character resets every time I logout (official servers)
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Every time I login into an official server I get a 35 second timer and a message saying I'm changing servers. This happens even when I'm clearly joining the same server.

When the timer is done my character resets back to a given state, this state is always the same and never changes.

I can drop items, re-join and the items will be back on my inventory. The dropped items do not disappear, I could technically dupe items on my inventory infinitely by re-joining.

Not entirely sure but I think the inventory that I get every time I re-join matches the inventory I had before being disconnected by an unknown error (I thought it was just a normal network error so I didn't save the error code).

This bug is game breaking and makes the game unplayable.

Steps To Reproduce

No idea how to reproduce this, I just log out and re-join back and my character is stuck on this reset loop.

Additional Information

Things I have tried in an attempt to fix this:

  • Restart my game
  • Restart steam
  • Restart computer
  • Change to another official server (this changes the timer to 95 seconds instead of 35)
  • Drop all my items (I thought maybe I had a bugged item)
  • Die and respawn
  • Wait the full 15 seconds when logging out
  • Terminating the DayZ process to leave the game

UPDATE: After some time the problem seemed to have fixed itself. One dude on discord was also having the same issue as me and his problem got solved at the same time as me. Nonetheless this should still be looked into, people shouldn't have to love loot this way.
