Just got killed by a hacker in NWAF. I tried running out of a building but the doors kept shutting on me. then he appeared and disappeared in front of my face and kept opening doors. then i finally got outside and died. no gunshots or sounds. just died. I thought the hacking would cease but now its only easier to hack??? Since they are doing it on experimental.

I know everyone hates the lag that currently ravages our gameplay. Can we expect lag fixes sooner than later or is the lag one of the last things to be worked on after all features are implemented? Will the new renderer really fix the lag or just mask the fps drops in cities? I know most of the problems are pure desync and server load. A renderer is supposed to only fix FPS right? I would like some info because if the lag isn't fixed by at least 40% soon i think it would be better for me to just put the game down until next year. It is very difficult for me to even test the game at this stage. I hear .50 is supposed to fix some lag but that was said about the last couple patches and they did 0. Anyone testing .50 please throw me some info! thanks

Happened to me at least 5 times now

With the new update rolling out possibly next week I would like to address the elephant in the room. I, as well as many others have seen an increased activity with aim botters, item spawners, and teleporters. This really has become a major issue since even the Dayz media(IE Youtube and Reddit) population have been making constant videos and uploading hundreds of pictures of these hackers. This rise surely started to happen sometime in .45 and hasn't stopped increasing yet. I did some research on my own about these hacks and people are actually paying money in an intentionally unexplained way to acquire everything they need for hacking in DayZ. I was hoping someone could shed light on the matter of hacking in .49. Is Bohemia actively seeking out methods of combating these hackers? What is the actual status of VAC over DayZ? Will justice ever be done and these hackers get banned?

So there i am in berezinho. Get shot in the arm from the police station and run into the diner/pub building. Finally i can fight against a non hacker in some clean pvp! Here he comes towards the building, as I draw my magnum to do the dirty work. This is going to be so much fun!!! Fighting a non-hacker without 9 protector cases full of grenades! Here he comes up the stairs... BOOM shot him in the head. "Victory cheer in skype" "Friends congratulating me" Loot his body for the ammo. Oh wait, his body dissapeared? Who is that laughing at me in game? Obscure words are said that i can't understand. I ready my magnum for the stairs again and start to get mocked. The guy appears in front of me and instantly dissapears. He is wearing a press vest and running in and out of walls. Mocking me for being a "noob". He pops in through the wall and shoots me in the back which breaks my legs. I fall to the ground and surrender. He walks through the wall in front of me and walks back into it. My gear all of the sudden dissapears completely and im in fresh spawn clothes. BOOM i get shot in the head. He mocks me as I lay dead. DAYZ IS COMPLETELY UNPLAYABLE. This is LITERALLY the 20th time in the last week. I can't log in to any server without being tortured by hackers. See you all in .50

I don't understand how dayz can have such terrible security. I know it's alpha but c'mon, the hackers are just testing the game for weaknesses while we can't have any fun. High population servers are completely unplayable.

Hacked for the 13th time in the last 3 days. Teleporting hacker flew in to knock me unconcious and replaced his gear with mine in under a second. Then laughed and killed me. Bohemia, please.

I completely agree. Why do they encourage server hopping? They should be encouraging players to find a server and stick with it.

What is going on? This is the 10th time in the last 4 days i've been killed by guys teleporting across the map, shooting through houses, and appearing in front of me and stealing all of my gear then shooting me with it. Can something please be done?

I definitely have problems with gunshots this last patch. I only csn hear them half of the time

This isn't about the number of zombies, it is about the instant respawning of zombies. I cannot explain how much of a pain this game has become since zombies are now instantly respawning. Ill run for 10 minutes into the middle of nowhere and tab out for 20 seconds. Tab back in to find literally 7 zombies attacking me? I can't go anywhere or do anything without an infinite amount of zombies swarming my every move. I KNOW THIS IS A ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE GAME but it is literally impossible to clear an area of zombies for even 30 seconds. I can't stand it!

All American servers

There has been a huge influx of hackers recently in DayZ. I have witnessed over 5 accounts in the last 2 days of playing. I have also seen tons of duping areas where players have duped their characters over 20 times and there are piles of high cap vests, drum mags, and lots of bullets. Just 15 minutes ago i logged into the barracks in turovo and did not even move once. I instantly heard another player(the only other player in the server) so naturally I aimed my rifle to the stairs. He would have no way to see my position or even assume i would be in the same area as him. He prefires and runs backwards up the stairs. Every shot hit me since i didnt hear the bullets hit the wall. He was aiming straight at me. Clearly wall hacking and possibly aim hacking. He wouldn't even have time to wall glitch to see me it was so fast. I've experience 2 other times where players literally came running in through the walls of the building i'm in to spray me down. This game has become nothing but a breeding ground for hackers and dupers. Maybe its time to jump on the wagon??? I have about 300 hours into the game and I haven't experienced this many hackers yet. Is DayZ part of VAC yet? Since the game is in alpha are there not anti-cheat methods? Are there private servers that i can join that are heavily moderated to almost eliminate hackers and how could i get into these? I have never hacked in a game before but if its this easy and everyone is jumping off the bridge.......

If you are super far away from where your end destination is. Just suicide and get a spawn that puts you closest. Do this until they fix it, everyone else is. If there are three rules to dayz they would be as follows. 1. Camp to win in pvp 2. Everyone cheats in some way 3. Nobody is friendly.

Pro-tip here: When you spawn find the nearest town you can see and run to it. Looting is not nessessary because you are only looking for the road signs that give you the towns name. Check the town on dayzdb so you can plot out your course. Loot only large building with high loot spawns or weapon spawns. Houses are pointless and a waste of time. Don't try to kill zombies without an axe, just keep sprinting away and looting. Use your strafe keys to avoid hits. Once you acquire a weapon strafe a circle around the zombies and keep swinging until the game desides you hit them. If you are new and on a highly populated server stay away from larger cities like Berezinho, Elektro, and Cherno. Also airfields and military compounds can be equally as dangerous because these are basically pvp hubs. Explore the map from end to end do you csn become a professional navigator. The skills in pvp can be learned from experience and YouTube
