Never

The dummy thing didn't work, it was simply duping everything.

But are there any other mods that are being torn apart by hackers on such a constant basis? Its understood that anti-hack will never be watertight, but the fact remains that DayZ is such a free-for-all for hackers its pretty much unplayable except as a short session PvP game.

Well, at least you made it look as crap as its become.

Oh my dayz fucking LOL.

Oh cry more. Pointless thread is pointless.

Well, the script kiddies yes, but the hackers? they'll have been temporally blocked, but they'll be back.

Your being trolled in game and all threads like this do is feed those trolls. But DayZ is at breaking point. Problem is ARMAs weak when it comes to hackers. I'm sure the team would do something if they could but its out of their hands it seems. DayZ can't be fixed directly due to it being a mod, and the resources aren't there to rebuild the parent engine. The way i see it it sucks, and it looks like the end days for the Alpha, but its a good thing for DayZ in the long run. Bad Points: As it stands, the mod is doing all it can on this engine. Hackers are rife, and pretty much unstoppable. Due to those two, a Solid standalone DayZ will be a lot longer coming. And it might not be Rocket behind it. Good points: The concept has been proved as rock solid. We know that DayZ standalone has things we want that this engine can't deliver. That means the devs can find a engine that is very stable for their purposes. Rockets given a few game companies a kick up the arse. (although in the long term, i don't think anything will change) So yeah best case, we'll be getting a lot more solid Dayz like games in the future and rocket will be behind at least one of them. And hey at least BIS has made a fuckload of case they can invest in a more secure engine *some time after ARMA 3 most likely)

This was the only post i saw in this thread that isn't blind as fuck.

Nice of you not to show us your mate out of shot waiting to pick that gear up for you. ;)

Even Rocket prefers Reddit to this place then.

Well, there we go. Lets get the forum already for "My dog didn't Alt+F4 with me/A Bandit killed my dog/AAARGH DOGZ R FUKED/Dogs are broken" threads then. At least all the dickhead sniper threads crying about their glitchy dog got them spotted and killed will be fun.

So it more like Rockets doesn't have many ideas and the things he does what to add hes nicked from other games. A lot of things seem to be mostly cosmetic as well. 'Beards and bloody clothes', hmm, More solid core mechanics beforeand over adding a pubic hair growing mode would be nice.

Well to be fair i'd missed the outrage til i saw this thread as well. Not sure why everyones claiming its a rip of DayZ, the idea of Zombie games had always been nothing new, Plus the War Z team seems to have started work last year, so it could well be a case of both parties having the same idea and working on it, and when DayZ popped up the War Z team went 'oh fuck! a dudes got the same idea!' and have rushed this out before Rocket beats them to it. Plus its not like it'll be a bad thing. Seems like War Z will be out first later this year, so if any thing Rocket can learn from the feedback they get and make DayZ everything War Z isn't. Plus maybe War Z is perfect for the players that can't enjoy DayZ, and the 'hardcore' can stay jacking rocket off.

Whats the competition? On Topic though, i'm unsure about going underground, it almost sounds a bit to Minecraft mixed with a dash of Fallout 3/Metro 2033.. How would it implemented? Instances? A map made of blocks? Pre-made bunkers you can 'claim'? None of those methods seem to fit personally.Also, why would you want to live in a pit when zombies are shuffling around on ground level? Surely one day you'll open the door/hatch to find a bunch of infected stuck in the doorway! See we should go up not down... Treehouses.

Its a glitch caused by the tents duping themselves and whatevers in them. Its a flaw that most clans have learnt and now use to have an infinite stock of over-powered guns/gear. Survival mod LOL.

Yeah. And heres the fucking Moon on a stick.

Didn't he make the zeds run indoors and then the forum threw their toys out the basket till he made them walk again?

All the recent ARMA BETA patches are a direct result of the attention DayZ has brought, so we can guess that they are trying to address as much as they can. But with ARMA 3 due fairly soon i guess BIS are finding it hard to justify having staff tweaking the old product. Rockets said hes ported a DayZ version to the ARMA3 code due to them being based on the same engine, hence why i've concerns for standalone DayZ and also ARMA3s hacker protection.

Ah sod it, yeah it was hackers, must be. Lords knows noones can ever be outplayed ever. :/ Sorry, its just a far to common attitude these days and it just depressing really. Its that kind of thinking that leads people to the darkside, so be careful Luke ;)

Oh hello grumpy. ARMA 3 code is improvements on the same engine. Its not a brand new spanking engine.

One other way to look at that is it was an organised raid. Sounds like your camps have been there for a while yes? I've done it to a few groups with a few friends, We found a clans camp, so we watched it for a couple of days, made sure they were actively using it, third day they led us to a second camp of theirs, we waited 3 more days then raided both. :P by the end of the third day we'd learned their snipers preferred camping/cover locations around their camp and were pretty sure we'd worked out the rough hours they liked to play. We just waited til we reckoned they'd be offline.

Well, theres still huge game breaking issues that have been seemingly left as they are:1) Server hopping/farming abuse.2) Dc exploit.3 Dupes inc tents.4) Barbed wire/Tank Trap dupe and litteradding stuff had added:4) heli drop cycling5) invisible bear trapsetc etcIt would sugest there are vital issues that need fixing before adding dogs or whatever crap the fanbase has begged for.

Not actually a bad idea.

Well if it was standalone atm it would be still based on the ARMA engine. So standalone DayZ would be shite. Unless your suggesting a total rebuild on another engine, which isn't going to come from either rocket or BIS.

Hold on for the flame train..
