The truth is, the thing about communist hackers and the attack on the United States and the FBI sounds like trolling, If you don't want cheaters you can play on console or create a private server and play in a community with people you know. Another solution could be to create a closed operating system for PCs with encryption keys backed by the TPM module and create a motherboard with firmware protections, in addition to that limiting the use of peripherals on that system, if I were a large company like Microsoft I would have tried it knowing that multiplayer on PC is a mess and that many people would install it just to avoid that problem and enjoy playing, a dual-boot system, This way the PC could perhaps even have crossplay with console players. In addition to that, the system could consume much fewer resources even for playing single-player games, but its real function would be to play multiplayer games, I don't see any other way, virtualize, I don't know, it would have been tried already.

So, over the course of several decades, nefarious black-hat actors from communist regimes have been committing cyber-criminal activities.   These hackers have cost major U.S. corporations billions of dollars and there's not much the government can do.  They've asked them nicely, but it's a constant 'game' of cops and robbers where the bad actors are always a step ahead of the electronic security measures.    I assure you that DayZ paying customers are of the highest priority and I fully endorse contacting your local FBI spokesperson to launch air strikes on the offending teenager in china.

I say go true hard-core and no hud at all. Just like, remove it entirely.

but console players. im sure at this point. are the majority.

if that "taste" includes a difficultless game with point and click gunplay with one tap weapons with zero recoil. yes. that is objectively braindead.

what bohemia needs to do is fix the fundamental systems of the game that effect exactly HOW the game is experienced and perceived. movement, gunplay and aesthetics.

vanilla IS important. because that is effectively the "standard" of the game. it is the poster. it is the image that shapes the expectations and embodies whatever "identity" the game is trying to be.

i WOULD NOT have a problem with this if it was the other way around. where the systems were harder and then people made custom servers that stripped those systems to the game we have today. not make it easy and have to make people actually have to make dayz what it actually is.
