Is weight ever going to be introduced if it is will it affect stamina.
freethink replied to gannon46's topic in General Discussion
Can anyone find that video of the guy thought that legbreaks were too easy in game so he basically jumped off various heights with a full back pack to mythbust ? -
You the man! I was worried I'd have no exp. to play

I think it's architecture, architecture, architecture. It's all very annoying recently with hackers but at the same time the hackers are able to hack because of they way the architecture is/was until now. I'm from a construction background and the most important thing is the foundation. No-one sees it or appreciates it but it's the most important thing. It's all very well putting up lovely wallpaper and curtains until your house sinks into the ground. btw Irish here, will check out your server/group if you are willing for other celts to get involved

It's getting lonely and barren in NWAF
freethink replied to TheWizard14's topic in General Discussion
I actually don't think you should be able to loot your own body. I think once the gear is removed from your corpse then fine, it's fair game for anyone. I have looted my own body and won't deny that though. Generally I don't even try as I figure I'm over 10 mins away. Last time though three of us were killed by a hacker and all he had taken was our food and drink. I think it's because when they speed hack they use up food and drink faster. Apart from that time, I've never felt right about looting my corpse. Never actually managed it more than a handful of times tbh. -
how do we make splint sticks using an axe?

It's getting lonely and barren in NWAF
freethink replied to TheWizard14's topic in General Discussion
And with no chance of getting your gear back. My last jaunt over there I got right to the walls on the sw before the server shut down. I was thrilled thinking I'll hop back on and have my pick of gear. Log back in, hear some zombie noises, a few messages about bleeding/broken bones before "You are dead" came. I didn't even get to walk on the runway. -

freethink replied to TheWizard14's topic in General Discussion
That's exactly where I'm headed on exp. I think as well people might start migrating there to avoid hackers in the next while. It'll only be a brief respite from them but we won't be the easy targets we are at the neaf / berez. -
What's the current hacking status like in DayZ:SA?
freethink replied to RadikulRAM's topic in General Discussion
I suppose the problem is you don't have conclusive proof linking the hacker with the steam profile. You have circumstantial evidence and they can't ban someone for that. I've no idea what happens behind the scenes with vac but I'm sure they take reports seriously. Whether you want to report when you can't prove 100% who cheated is up to you. -

freethink replied to RadikulRAM's topic in General Discussion
If you go to their profile in steam you can report a violation "suspected cheater" there along with whatever evidence you have. It sounds like you have pretty strong (but not conclusive) evidence. I'd give it a shot. -
What's the current hacking status like in DayZ:SA?
freethink replied to RadikulRAM's topic in General Discussion
Cheers for clarification. To quote you" it cannot fix underlying issues in the engine that allow such exploits/hacks." Hopefully the architectural chances sort this out. The item stealing stuff seems like it's a missing sanity check from being fixed. Have to say I love the battleye ban threads on steam. My most pressing concern though is, what's with the super narrow website from the 80s? -
hack. it's widespread atm unfortunately. it's been reported and is in the bug tracker.

What's the current hacking status like in DayZ:SA?
freethink replied to RadikulRAM's topic in General Discussion
I hate to say stuff like it's trivial to fix this but surely on joining a server some sort of check could do done that changes clips/mags from thousands to their actual value. I thought the fix was the small security update a while ago. It was like a hotfix. -

freethink replied to RadikulRAM's topic in General Discussion
What do you mean by fixed? If people are able to dupe items and infinite ammo clips fire infinite ammo then there is an unlimited amount of infinite ammo clips. People are selling them now. Not having a go at you at all but I was led to believe that the recent small security patch made those clips fire blanks once their capacity was spent but it seems like they are truly unlimited. I asked some guy who found one to do a test: Again not having a go at you, you are in the detection and banning business rather than the stopping business. -
Thinking about renting a ViLayer server, any thoughts?
freethink replied to ShallowTech's topic in Servers
no idea why anyone would rent a server at this stage. -
Servers with connection issues to central hive
freethink replied to rocket's topic in News & Announcements
I got the same message recently. What I did is immediately escape back to the server list and join a different server. Didn't lose anything. -
DayZ Standalone makes my internet connection struggle
freethink replied to [email protected]'s topic in Troubleshooting
Just as an update the latest update seems to have fixed this. I quit the game and refreshed the server list 5 times in a row and here I am able to post to the internet immediately afterwards! Cheers Devs! edit: nope! still happening -
DayZ Standalone makes my internet connection struggle
freethink replied to [email protected]'s topic in Troubleshooting
+1. I can play the game fine but if I refresh the server list once or twice my internet dies for 5 minutes. -
Rolling Update Rev - 0.43.116251
freethink replied to Hicks_206 (DayZ)'s topic in News & Announcements
Our characters aren't compatible with the previous version. I could've logged out at the top of a new police station and have various new items on me. What would happen then? Some sort of inception type vibe...at best.
