    What new Rifles would you guys like to see?

    Adding a bunch of civilian weapons just means people will seek out and kill others for the best civilian weapon... I think, currently, there's a pretty good balance of civilian vs military. We don't currently have any LMG's, no DMR's, and no full fledged sniper rifles. Hence, those are the 3 things I'd like to see.. Keep adding civilian weapons, but don't NOT add military weapons. For LMG -> I like the Saw.. Fires 5.56, 200 rounds, fast ROF, decent accuracy, capable of mounting a bipod and RDS.. For DMR -> M14 as I stated above. For sniper rifle -> The Dragunov is on it's way.. can't wait.
  2. This isn't true at all.. It happens to everyone and it's just a bug with certain clothing items not refreshing. It can even happen on your person with certain containers like Medikits. As stated above: Attempt to put an item in it.. Attempt to pick it up and put it back down.. if neither of those work, try relogging.. Also happens with weapon attachments.

    M14 with the following attachments available: Red Dot Sight Long Range/Sniper Scope Bipod Compensator Muzzle flash Suppressor Variety of buttstocks Variety of handguards Paint camo/black/green Grass camo
  4. That's basically what I have been saying... The storm is coming, and BI better baton down the hatches and start doing something about it, or the community will be overwhelmed. Right now, the hacking is rampant.. and it's escalating. It's getting worse, not better. Karma, as much as I'd love to believe that everything will be okay in the end, I just don't share your enthusiasm.. I am a very patient and rational person, but I can only tolerate so much of someone cheating to ruin my enjoyment of a game. I've already put up (and continue to put up with) buggy game-play.. I can handle that. I can handle the dupers and wall glitchers.. I can handle the character resets and the crashes.. I can handle that stuff because it's EXPECTED in the Alpha... I expected cheaters, too.. but I also expected BI/BE/VAC to keep the cheating to a minimum by doing regular ban waves and by keeping their Anti-hack software up to date to detect and punish the latest cheats. The source code being stolen was a set back.. I understand this. Whether what you say is true or not, Karma, it does not change the reality - Players will get fed up with dealing with hackers and they will either resort to hacking themselves, quit the game, or be miserable for months on end.. And keep in mind, MOST players in this game are NOT hardcore fans who post on these forums or play 2-5 hours every day. MOST people log in for 20 minutes, maybe an hour or two.. maybe a few days a week.. They don't check the forums, they don't make youtube videos, they don't post bug reports.. All they see is people doing things they cannot, and they will get frustrated, say to themselves "this is bullshit", and they will close the game and many of them may never open it back up again because the game will forever be remembered as a "bad experience". The more rampant hacking is, the more often that scenario happens, the more fans/players this community loses.. If I, as a hardcore fan and long-time player of this game am getting fed up, frustrated, and impatient with the current status of the game, then the average casual player is already LONG gone... This is why this issue is so critical, and while I do not expect cheating to be 100% "solved" in the next month, or two, or 6, or 12.. I expect BI, BE, and VAC to take the necessary steps required to ensure that this game does not become a cesspool of hackers, dupers, and glitchers - Which is currently what it is.
  5. When you say "Feedback tracker" are you referring to the BUG tracker?
  6. BE is not run by Bohemia... It's a completely separate entity. Furthermore, as far as I understand, BE only checks scripts/pbo's, etc. It does not protect vs all hacks. VAC is not run by Bohemia, and it protects vs other hacks.. I'm sure there is probably some crossover between BE and VAC in what they protect. Neither have anything to do with Bohemia's development cycle. Hacks are third party programs.. they do not care where DayZ SA is in the development cycle and neither does BE/VAC.
  7. I was directed to this thread by you.. Now you're telling me to go to the feedback tracker? Once I get to the feedback tracker, will I be told to go complain to battleye? Edit: Sorry, I was told to come here by boneboys.. My bad.
  8. Here's the current hacking status of DayZ in a nutshell: Teleports + ESP Inf Ammo mags Teleports + ESP Basically: This shit need to be taken care of an ASAP.

    Silencers? Where are they?

    You're being stupid by insulting him based on your inability to understand the nuance of his English. "Fix" 1.to repair; mend. 2. to put in order or in good condition; adjust or arrrange: She fixed her hair in a bun. 3. to make fast, firm, or stable. The Silencer was not working the way silencers are intended to work, therefor it was broken. It never worked. It was always broken. It needs to be fixed. It was removed until it will be fixed to work the way it was intended.

    Silencers? Where are they?

    He never said they did, dummy.. English probably isn't your first language, but you know enough to call someone a dummy so you should know enough to not to draw false conclusions.

    Silencers? Where are they?

    If I recall correctly, you could not load Non-SD ammo in an SD weapon. However, you could load Stanag SD in an M4, fire that M4, and while it sounded unsuppressed, it would be silent to zombies (and zombies only).

    Reporting status loot on military base

    Never seen a sporter mag at a Heli crash.. Seen them other places though. Can't recall off the top of my head where exactly, but didn't seem out of place to me.

    Reporting status loot on military base

    Blaze, Shotguns, and Mosins all spawn in Barracks now.

    Reporting status loot on military base

    FNX and FNX mags are at Heli crashes.

    Silencers? Where are they?

    All gunshot sounds attract zombies within the same 100m range, and if you kill a zombie with a gunshot, one will spawn nearby.. If it spawns within 100 meters of you, it will automatically aggro onto you. If you are in wide open areas with no way to break LOS/Pathing, then the zombie will attack you. So as far as Amphibia's go, they're only good for reducing sound that players hear, not zombies. On topic: Heli crash sites, and they're rare as fuck.

    Green Mountain Sanctuary. My first visit. My last.

    That server is quite literally swarming with them.. I'll send you a PM with a short video displaying it, if you don't mind. (I don't want to derail/add videos to your thread).

    Green Mountain Sanctuary. My first visit. My last.

    That server is always full of fucking hackers. Been there twice, first time went to Green Mountain and got in a fire-fight with a squad of guys who had duped gear and infinite ammo M4's. A friend and I killed 4 out of 6 of them. The second time I went there, I was killed by a teleporting asshole kind of like the guy who abducted you. Basically, never go to that server ever.
  18. Every time you kill a player, you reset that players gear and they return to the coast. If they're tough, they'll keep playing and gear back up, and they will likely be less likely to interact with the next player they see. Every time you interact positively with another player, you enrich not only their experience of the game, but your own as well, and you restore just a little bit of their faith back in humanity.

    Tent placing needs a preview

    This will probably be implemented later on. It was in the mod and is in most ARMA games which involve base building/object placement.

    Ambushed by a teleporter

    Is this hacks, or desync? You decide..

    Ambushed by a teleporter

    Totally man.. Purchasing a 3rd party client from a hack site in order to teleport around the map with infinite ammo and kill players by defying the mechanics of the game is TOTALLY like speaking to your friends through a 3rd party voice-comms program, and is totally justified when facing "campers", which is a play-style choice built into the game. Seriously, you have it all figured out.. Now stuff your head in an oven.

    Ambushed by a teleporter

    Infinite ammo Blaze actually doesn't sound too bad... 2 shots at a time of the highest caliber round available in the game.

    Ambushed by a teleporter

    Yeah, I have about 600 hours logged and ASIDE from Infinite Ammo mags, I've only ever personally died to 2 hackers.. This is the 2nd.

    Ambushed by a teleporter

    I laughed hard at that video of you asking the guy how much he paid from his moms credit card.

    Ambushed by a teleporter

    My thoughts exactly... If he was not a hacker, he would have been better off shooting me from the side, out of my FOV.. Pretty convinced this was a teleport hack.
