I do not post my experiences with hackers because it gives them some kind of validation. However in the last three days my group has run into hackers. In the situation you described the attacker either had an exceptional positional advantage or was cheating.

My personal thoughts below, not much but experience to back it up. The way the damage system currently works the items in your inventory take damage first. Larger more penetrating bullets do damage to several items at the same time, the sporter it seems does not do this often resulting in the need to hit your intended victim over 15 times to do anything that resembles damage. As weapon balance comes about im sure this will change but right now your better off trying to axe someone if they are close enough.

Persistence is broken so having a tent is not really having anything :(

Perhaps your topic could have been a bit more discriptive and more constructive towards having a conversation. Possibly try something like "Experiencing bugs this patch, collecting feedback and discussion inside".

I think they have implemented weather systems that effect visibility. I have noticed significant variations in how far I can see before fog takes over. I was noticing last night that depending on the amount of atmospheric distortion and the position of the sun that the color in the scene was also drastically different. So I think this is all intended behavior. I now live in a mountain valley IRL, the smoke from some of the Canadian and Idaho fires settles here. I have noticed it looks almost EXACTLY like how dayz is using fog and whatnot. Visibility goes from to the horizon to only 2 miles or so depending on the day. Edit: If you note, all three screen shots are taken at slightly different times of day and appear to be facing away from or towards the sun. This also has an impact.

You sir, win the day with your concise explanation. I was face palming so hard when I watched the end of some atrocious shootem up move and he sticks his hand in a fire with shells between his fingers to 'shoot' the bad guy in the final scene. True 'explosive' ammo needs to penetrate before it detonates, so the explosion is channeled through the body and does not just deflect as the above example.

I think the bow and crossbow use new mechanics and are tied into the physics work. I dont think that they are done yet, but I would expect any changes to take a long time because of the nature of the arrows and bolts.

Dropping and picking up the weapon, or removing and reattaching components of the weapon 'fix' this. I think i heard its the server going into triage mode filtering out 'unimportant' information because it is maxed out. Now, obviously a bug because that is NOT unimportant information... but ya.

This is a bug. You are spawning at the 'developer de-bug spawn' in Vibor. This happens when you join a server that has not finished rebooting after a crash or restart, or if your character information has become corrupted.

This is where I ask you if you submitted a bug report or just came here to bellyache?

See my post above this.

Well, it seems to be taking down peoples common sense. What with 'prank calls' to the police departments about hostage situations and murders, if you didnt hear about the kid that just got 25 years in jail for that shit. People are thinking they are more anonymous then they are. They are also crossing some very well established lines with no grasp of the consequences. http://www.ign.com/boards/threads/15-year-old-kid-sentenced-to-25-life-for-calling-in-fake-police-raid-on-rival-gamer-mod-edit-fake.454205845/

Ya but you sharpen it at the least once a year. If you didnt it wouldnt be worth much. The point is its a game. And there needs to be a mechanic that incentives getting new gear. Now they probably dont have it tuned quite right yetand probably wont for a long while. You know alpha and all. But its important from a game-play perspective to have things to do. Even if its just maintenance. Some day using guns will degrade their quality, then all these weapon kits will be useful and desired for example.

You have to sharpen them. We cant do that. Yet. Though I do hear that rocks work on blades...

I have not seen any that actually have it enabled, hopefully the hotfix next week will address some of this.

You couldnt pay me to bandit at an airstrip. Often people come in force and have no issues shooting you for breathing. Airstrips, bases, Elektro and Cherno are all free fire zones. Saying or wishing something different won't change that.

The only time i have seen something weird here was when a server was in BAD need for restart. Zombies fighting into buildings lag through doors and teleport via lag to players, is about the closest thing like this that I have seen repeatedly.

I wasnt wet and it didnt do anything for me either :/

Do you have to use the specific 'sit' emote, because my friend froze to death last night, by a fire, in a jail.

Unfortunately that server does NOT have it enabled, upon restart all the items have respawned and a couple things i left around were no longer there.

Nice thanks!

The in game browser? Where none of them say it and a lot of them are Persis.... Cut off before they say if its on or off? If there's some trick to it id love to know. Because all the official 3pp ones have it very clearly in the description.

I cant find any Persistent hardcore servers :(

Yes we had this issue several times, didnt notice any trend or specific causes.
