Here what happened to me few mnutes ago. I was in Balota looting the tents. I heard music and then a guy was in front of me then he disappeared. After few seconds he was behind me screaming that he was going to kill me. He disappeared again and he actually killed me few seconds later. Now don't think about desync even for a second because after i respawned i was near the shipwreck (Balota is on the other side of the map) and to respawn you've to wait only 30 seconds. I decided to loot the shipwreck but i wasn't even near the boat when i heard the same music. The guy told me he was going to kill me AGAIN (so he was the guy who killed me in Balota). Same music, same voice, same equipment, same teleporting thing .. same end of the story. I died. So i log off and now I'm trying to calm down. I fu***ing hate hackers. And in a way i fu***ing hate this game to not try to solve this problem hard enough. If yuo don't want to trust me about the teleport at least explain me how he could have run from Balota to the shipwreck in 1 minute!!!

Shooting from the building you were to Balota is not a novice shot. I usually zeroing without the map. I prefer some trial shots on an empty server to some zombies so that i can learn the distance "on the field". My guess is that in both cases you used the wrong distance and so you missed all the shoots. When you shoot take your time. You're far away and if the guy you're shooting at doesn't have a Mosin with an LRS you will be ok anyway. Also after the first shoot try to see where it lands (if you miss the target) so that you can decide if you want to modify the zeroing or just adjust aim up or down. Finally in the second case it's not easy hit a moving target from that distance because he is moving horizontally respect to your position and you've to compensate also his movement when you shoot. So it's better to wait until he stops (for example to check around him or to open the door of the building). That's when you want to shoot.

I'm curious to experiment the new physics system but I've to wait till tonight. I hope the problem reported about the mouse controls is not confirmed !

If he died falling down three steps immersion goes to hell pretty much ....

Hi guys, i would like to join the thread writing that I don't understand what you're talking about. I read the last 6 pages of this thread and seems like there are 2 groups of people arguing each others saying that : hackers exist. No they don't. Yes they do. No they don't. And so on. Hackers exist on Dayz SA. THAT'S A FACT. It's a fact not because I'm saying this. It's a fact because if you google Dayz SA Script there are at least 2 web sites who sell Dayz hacks, script extenders pages and pages of discussions on how to fake the chekcsum over PBO files. They talk about infinite ammos and how to do that trick, dll injection and so on. People who can spawn an entire building in front of you. Respawn as many mosin with LRS as they want in front of you. That's hacking. I don't want to post here any links but as i said it's quite easy to find out using google. Now i don't care if you've played this awesome game for 500 hours or 5000 hours and you don't think hackers exist. They do. End of the story. Maybe we should focus more on how to improve the game. I'm sure Battleye people are working on this .. but i hope they hurry ...

Hi, in the weekend i broke my legs 5 times in 8 different gaming sessions. 3 times was caused by an engine glitch 1 time i got hit by a zombie who was downstairs and hit me through the floor 1 time i got shot Everybody who played the game enough know that this is a pain in the a*s because while you're crawling you're slow (and that's ok) but also seems like that you cannot use the stairs (so you can't check upper floors for morphine or wooden sticks) and you cannot even enter in any building/house who has a single step in front of the door. Basically if you're alone the best thing you can do is to die. Now I'm not complaining about the engine glitch or the zombie who can hit you through the floor but I'm suggesting that wooden sticks you should be more easy to find. If you broke your legs and you have an axe a tree should be enough but you can't use them. Apart from that fractures are too frequent in the game : I cannot understand how a zombie hit could fracture my legs.... What do you think guys ?

You're right when you say that only snipers go there. I went there because i killed a sniper shooting him from the top of the hill. I then slide down trying to loot him and that's when i entered in the gap and died. Sadly i cannot find an LRS since two weeks now ....

It must be an hack.

When i broke my leg I was in Svetlo and my friend was in Solnichniy. I asked him to find morphine or wooden sticks to help me. He searched Berezino, Khelm, Krasnostav and Svetlo before he could find some morphine in the wooden hospital in Svetlo. Wooden sticks are not so easy to find. Beside that i guess should be easy to find some wooden sticks than some morphine in a post apocalyptic world... but that' just my opinion i guess

I know about morphine mate but if morphine is in the bagpack could be ruined by the hit .. and also my point was about having an axe and a tree and not able to craft a wooden stick ... The glitch I'm referring to are : 1) you fall from the stairs in the police building pass through the wall and hit the ground. Broken leg 2) if you're with a friend in a small place he can somehow push you through a wall.. if you are on a first floor it means ... broken leg 3) In front of the little island right out of Kamishovo there are some big stones on the side of the mountain. If you go there there is a glitch (like if the stones are not "attached" to the side of the mountain and there is a little gap) and you could fall to the ground .. again .. broken leg.

I'm using Steam because it's free, already included in the client that is open anyway in order to run the game and i play only with a friend so it seems to me the easiest choice. I had some connections drop (5-6) over 170 hours of gameplay and I can live with that. I would like to try TS but i don't know anyone who could give me a slot for free so i guess i will stick with Steam.

I played this game for about 170 hours now and I can understand how you feel but you have to move on the next step. Groups of bandits should be common in a post apocalyptic world. If you play alone and you're spotted anyway it means you're playing bad (no offense). The only way to survive alone is to be like a ghost. If a group of people spot you and you're not able to vanish then you're most probably dead. Because even if they don't kill they will try to force feed you something or steal your gear or handcuff you and leave you there. And all these things are ok with me. I think are a huge part of the game. If you don't want to meet anyone just stay north away from cities who have a military base or weapons spawn points. Loot what you need to survive and go back to the woods. I played in that way for around 40 hours at the begininning. It was funny but then it became boring. This game is better than Battlefield because it adds the survival aspects to a PvP enviroment. It's not ONLY about PvP because you need to eat and drink and sneak around zombies BUT it's not ONLY about survival because there are weapons and people will use these weapons to kill zombies AND other people. You've to deal with it and beat your frustration. Use your frustration to improve your survival tactics !

In that case i apologize too because I didn't understand that particular situation.

I guess he is talking about the first guy who surrendered, was on his knees and with the hands on his head so was not a threat anymore. Why shot him in the head ? Why not just take his weapon and let him leave ?

Number 3 is my favourite !

Nice video! I like your style

So the problem seems related to the be crouch on the ground and acting on the inventory. Well, i prefer an headshot than glitch through the wall. So no more crouching in the buildings for me !

Yes. That's the room. I was between the bed and the window. I didn't hear a single shot and also as i said i was crouch on the ground so no way someone could shot me at my legs from there. Well ... what can i say .. it's an alpha ...

Few minutes ago i was in the North East Airfiled at the second floor of a building. To be safe i was crouch on the ground and looting a backpack and the i saw the black screen "you're dead". At first i tought some sniper killed me (there was only 5 people on the server) then on the left of the screen i read "your leg is in pain". How is that possible ? I was crouch on the ground behind a wall. I could understand an head shot but from where is was a shot at a leg was just impossibile. Anyway i respawn i had robber banding every few seconds. Every few steps i was teleported back to the point i had respawn. Now i think : " is it possible i fall down from the second floor and i died for rubber banding" ? If yes .. robber banding is an issue i never had before the last hotfix .. is this a know issue ? Thanks

Yes, makes sense. The problem about that is : in few hours they will be gone for the weekend ... So no stable at least until monday

What about the stable ?

Good news. Devs are preparing an Hotfix to solve the lag and desync issue :

Two days ago i was with a friend in the forest near Berezino and suddenly we were killed by a group of bandits without a warning. I was pissed because I lost a Mosin equipped with a LRS. I respawn near Berezino so i ran trying to find my dead body but it was already gone so i waited for my friend and we went together in Berezino. We were fresh spawn and nothing to lose. The server was almost full (38/40) and there was a lot of shooting. We entered the city from the nord side and then I saw it near a door of a red house ! On the ground in the street a pristine black and green painted Mosin equipped with a LRS, a bipod and the suppressor. Someone, cannot imagine why, must have abandoned it. There weren't any bodies around. Anyway I immediately took it and I ran away! Life is good sometimes :)

So having a LRS justify a KOS ?

After my post of yesterday i want to apologize for my comment. I was in rage out of frustration. Said that i would like to rephrase my question : Why the devs pushed stable a version when people who were playing on the experimental reported lag issues for days ? I mean if they had this problem in a small hive was quite easy to imagine the same problem would be present and quite certainly worse on the bigger and stable hive. Would be wise to wait a little more ?
