NO it will go back to where you picked it up from. I have had this happen as well.

How about a variation of this, click and hold then move your self then release, does it move?

Well get ready for the hacker hate. When you log in and there are no walls and you can see through stuff just wait, it will render in within a few secs. As for the ban that seems strange. You may have to wait to find out what the ban was for

Sure it was not a private server? Also if the server just reset and you entered too soon that will do it. The only other reason could be that it is a messed up server.

post your acnt info, they will fix it for you

What ever you do, do not add gun holster with full vest pouches, everything will be GONE. I have a ticket for that issue started as well.

This is to make people HUNT and GATHER. Yes it sucks that food is hard to find but it makes it more survival. I agree maybe a small boost in food but still doesn't need to be as it was.

Well for me the issue has resolved but I have heard of other with similar issues where the game looks to be launching properly but never does. I suppose you could close this ticket.

I had to reboot the computer 3 times before it would work. Dayz.exe was only using 160k memory and would not close in task manager unless I ended beservice.exe first. The only thing I did different was ran the dayz shortcut without opening steam first and that is how it worked.

Stupid suggestion here, try clearing filter

One more thing I thought of was a variation of the gun holster. Why not make it so you can use it as a belt holster instead of just a chest holster? Somewhere to put a pistol other then in backpack or where ever everyone puts them.

Sometime I have this happen, usually when switch from melee back to gun. Going Gun to Melee it will switch while jogging. I think they are working to fix this with proper animations like Franzuu said.

It used to be that way, but in order to clean the server up to help keep it less lag free and crash free they set a timer on the bodies. If someone is with you and you die they can remove your gear and you can come back to get it later, but if they leave it on your body then yes it is gone. So they will not never this at all. If anything maybe increase to 20mins but that is it.

This is normal

I remember seeing that if the zombies get stuck in an object they become invisible, so the physical body is stuck but the actual AI can hit you

Is it possible that the 2 private hives are linked to the same hive? Some other servers do that, I think DayZRP has 4 and you can play in all of them. Name the private servers with IP's, and I am sure someone knows how to find out.

Ya that is the new "TRUCK TRAPS" people placing items on ground and it stops truck. Fireplace kits work really well for the. I think they are aware of the issue.

What are the spec to you computer?

If you have a 2nd monitor just run Hardware Monitor on it and watch the CPU temp while playing. Since it is a dual core I would guess it is pushing quite high so it could be overheating.

Have you been getting any BSOD? I am dealing with a friends system doing same thing, shuts down. I have narrowed it to a bad motherboard. Since your system is so new you might have a bad component. Do a memtest to see if your ram is causing an error. Also monitor your CPU temp, if it is getting too high for some reason your system will auto shut down.

What weapon did you have in your hands?

Someone else noticed issues like this and found that malwarebytes was causing issues. IF you have that try turning it off, or possibly some other anti-malware/virus software. I had issues one time with AVG

Do you have launch parameters in steam? If so REMOVE them

No it doesn't work that way. This being an Alpha and you clicking I UNDERSTAND at the beginning means that things like this will happen. My guess is the server had just done a reset and you entered it too soon. Kinda sucks I know, I had a character that had an M4 (back in June) and he had been alive for a long time, they did a hive reset and POOF gone, same sorta thing. I had many more hours into that one and gone. The fun of the game is usually finding stuff. Yes a Smersh vest is super rare and the odds of finding another one are very low. Just keep at it.

The only thing I could say is maybe you had bad timing logging back into the server, maybe it has just reset and what I stated before is what happened. It was the EXACT same server or a dif one?

Well if you immediately signed back in to same server that is your problem, you cannot just log back in that fast, you have to wait for the server to update the time in server browser, say the server resets to 0800, wait till the browser says 0801. If you don't, you will run the risk of resetting your character and there is no fix at all for it. So sounds to me as if you are SOL. Sorry.

My guess is since tape is a recent addition to securing someone they have the handcuff sound as a place holder and it is known.

I had this once as well, I have not crashed yet during game play. I have launch options in but not the maxmem option.

Well I think they are working on fixing this with the new engine. Why waste time on an issue that will be resolved soon enough another way.

Remove launch parameters from steam

Try removing any launch parameters you may have set in steam

Was reading that it might have something to with file names, looks like file names were changed but no in coding?

Do you have meat in a pot in your inv?

Hmmm, I had heard of this happening if you had meat in pot. Can you play in private hive servers? If not then it might be you game, I would re-install it (if not already tried). If you can play in a private hive server then it is a character issue on the pub server that the devs will have to investigate.

I have now confirmed that this bug still exists. I had been told it was fixed so I am not sure if it has yet or not now.

I do not have a video, but all I did was have my original akm with drum mag on my back and was holding the other akm with 30rnd mag. I left the server, either entered a new one or came back to same one later. Pressed 2 to pull out akm, I never noticed which one it pulled out but I ended up killing someone and checked their body, and when I went to remove drum mag I noticed the gun I had in my hands was the one with 30rnd mag which was at top of inv now not bottom like it should have been, the other one was at bottom with no ammo in it. I never put the gun down at all until I tried to find my drum mag.

The V3S Cargo has the ability to have more people, BUT in order to get everyone in they must ALL stand at the back and enter at the EXACT SAME TIME in order to all fit. It will take some doing but we had 1 driver, 1 passenger and 3 in the back.

LOL, I just thought maybe hidden in underware but your request is funnier.

Try a new server next time that happens to see if isnt just that server.

I got 2 crashes last night, from what I could tell it was a battle eye issue as friends were saying battle eye said I was not responding and they also said that about 5 others dropped as well.

It depends on the condition of the bottle. Pristine you will get maybe 3 shots and it is done.

One thing I thought of was WALKING down instead of running, maybe that will prevent a death.

Well my guess is that maybe someone came across it and took it, but who knows. One other issue might be that the server reset and that may have cleared it. Some servers reset once a week and others more often.

There is also a tree in the road near fountain in Gorka

Yes it is unfair but you know what, you agreed to accept this when you clicked I UNDERSTAND.

You know what else is unfair, I had a fully kitted out character with M4 (legit) and about 600 rounds of ammo for it. They did a character reset and I lost it all, yes it was heartbreaking that I spent all the time getting it but now I get to explore more of the map and get the new stuff. Finding gear is most of the fun anyways. You need to watch some of the DayZ pros on YT and twitch to learn where to look for stuff to find it faster. They cannot "respawn" your gear so give it up. If you do not like it go play CoD where you get all your gear back every spawn just to die in about 30 sec anyways. You posting BS requests here just takes time away from the devs doing real work.

This is not a retail version of the game, when you click I UNDERSTAND when you open the game you must not truly understand. THIS IS AN ALPHA there are bugs, glitches and all kinds of messed up things that will happen. When this happens post it here with as much detail as possible and they will try and link your issue with everyone else and find common links as to why it happened so they can fix it. Please don't report it and demand your gear back, that will never happen. Sorry.

These patch notes used to say it was a known issue, but it is gone now. Anyways they know there is a problem with it and I am sure it will be fixed by next patch.

Yes I had same issue when I changed resolution, I actually has a windows dump and BSOD.

Well for what ever reason I have had many many hours of play since this issue and it has not come back (yet). I would say close this ticket for now.

I too have dual monitors, but I was never able to regain control of the game, it would always be running still but I would have not visual of it just desktop. Your issue sounds similar but the fact you could continue playing makes me think it might be a different one as I was having the game crash on the main screen or server screen just the same as being in a server. It seemed to happen withing a few mins like the GPU stopped responding and recovered but no message would show.

I have been playing without any issues still, so my issue seems to be resolved but from what I read it is still an issue with others. Not sure how it was fix but I am glad it is. Will keep updating

I was able to play for 2 hours tonight with no issues and I was using the headset so maybe it was not the issue. Will keep monitoring.

I may have solved this crash issue. I have a Steel Series Siberia V2 USB headset, and I have all audio running through it. I had set it to speakers the other day disabling the headset and I ran the game tonight and it worked flawlessly for over an hour. I will do more testing to make sure

I left the game on the server screen for a few mins and it crashes the exact same as logging into a server.

Tried disabling AVG, still crashes the same. Added files from LOCAL\DayZ folder

So far I have been running the game with my headset just fine. The only other thing I can think of is that I did a file verify and everything checked out. Not sure what changed other then the day.

Does it do this?

Ok this is the same thing that just started happening to my since new patch. Game willfreeze, go black and video will crash to desktop buti still have sound and I can still move around and stuff. Try opening the game and leave it on the server browser screen. I crash there as well after about 2 mins

Was this causing the game to crash to desktop but still be running? I am getting CTD and I am still able to move around while looking at desktop.

I have also found that when this starts to happen my GPU usage drops to 20% or lower.

Yes this has happend to me 2x as well. but on version 0.32

I have noticed as well in some towns/cities. One recently is Zelenogorsk drops to 15fps on normal to low settings.

I can go into Palona, Gorka and a few others in that area with no issues at all, but I entered Vybor and the FPS dropped to 15-20, even a friend with a 4770k, 16bg ram, SSD, R9 290 was getting hits in the 20's
