Any game has hackers, what should be in place is something from rocket, i.e. some sort of tracking that allows users to get back loot if it was an unfair death.

It's ok dude, like I said I've kind of lost the dayz motivation right now. I may play again in a few days or maybe this will be the final straw and I'll forget about this game. The latter would be nice considering all the stress it gives me lol.

I suppose I can understand why they don't let admins deal with this stuff as it could get out of hand, has Rocket got plans for hackers, because like I said, any other game, it's just annoying, hackers on this game will literally destroy it and stop people from playing.

lol, typo. This game is one of those games where hacking is not just an annoyance it can take away weeks of work in an instant, would it be possible for rocket to check when players died and how? And if the player suddenly jumped across the map and dies, he's refunded his gear?

Ok about 4 hours ago I lost, cco sd, coyote pack, night vision, range finder, gps, ghuillie suit, as50 and a m107 all with plenty of ammo. to a hacker that spawned me onto a beach, I alt tabbed with ridiculous speedy reflex but before I could get out I had hit the ground and died. Now later, I'm not as pissed as I was, but merely demotivated to play again. partly due to the fact that it will take me a long time to get all that stuff back, but also because it can be taken away again at the blink of an eye to hackers. Is there anything I can in order to survive hackers?

Just lost as50, m107, ghuile, m9sd, gps, night vision, range finder and cco SD to a hacker. I alt-4d's instantly but it wasn't quick enough, anyone want to gear me and my friend back up? :D We've both really lost motivation to carry on playing now :(

haha yeah but I think he hit the floor too hard because we didn't kill him, we only found his dead body :P

Something glitched when I changed the title, it should be back now.

Ye but a lot of the context would have been lost, but like I said I added highlights in the description

I added highlights so you just get to see shooting! Just read the description.

Ah crap, what's up is it something to do with my video or YouTube as a whole?

We we're just logging in to teach our friend how to play the game, but as soon as we got in, we heard a helicopter approaching. The helicopter saw us and hovered above us for a few seconds before someone parachuted out. We then hid in the pine trees because we didn't know where he had landed. In total their were four of us in the pine trees, but none of us really knew were each other was. That's when I started filming. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpEyR9ssH_c&feature=plcp

People who say don't get attached to gear are just plain wrong, the gear is integral to the game, if you don't get attached to your gear the game is worthless, I don't care what people say this is a loot based game. Your entire experience is about finding and getting that loot! How can you be expected to just shrug off a death? It's devastating, it's horrible, but you get over it. But yeah, what you actually had wasn't that great, you'll get stuff like that no problem again.

There are?

Can't rocket simply make it so that the command alt-f4 kills your character?
