He's a collaborator at the very least and an admin abusing his power.

This guy is hacking on the server atm, he's spawning shit in for himself and crap and banning anyone who shoots at him. He's got his hacker buddy giving him nightvision each time he gets owned and spawning shit himself. Man this guy is fat.

Filth.

I'm glad so many people agree that we need more AS50's. :)

So you say I'm making an arbitrary distinction as to what DayZ and it's setting is, then you write a bunch of fan fiction to justify why you personally think anti material rifles should be in game? Or is it basically 'thus it is, and so it should be'? In answer to your question, I've asked for hacking and duping to be fixed, along with the Alt + f4, except I'm told that won't happen until standalone at the very least. I see nothing wrong with a rifle like the AS50 being in game, except only in very very limited numbers (as intended I suspect?). Until such a thing can happen (ie standalone), it should be removed for the time being. I don't enjoy the AS50 wars, it doesn't amuse me to get a kill with it or killed by it, it's just too common. And if you had any common sense you'd realise that.

These are great suggestions. Perhaps AS50 thermals could be heli crash sites and AS50 iron sights and holo's could drop at barns and hangers. As50 snubnose could be the starter weapon, slightly reduced accuracy at range and only iron sights.

It's not really a question of balance, it's a question of should these things even be in the game, given the setting of dayz. For any other carebear post I'd agree, balance it yourself, even the odds and stop whining. But really, these weapons don't fit in the zombie apocalypse setting, AT ALL. Perhaps once hacking/duping is fixed a very very rare 50 cal drop would be absolutely fine. But at the moment it's the ONLY sniper rifle people are using, because it's so heavily duped and hacked. The mod might as well be called, 'DayZ - the AS50 wars'.

We need this sarcastic retort too, right?

I didn't get sniped then make a rage post. I consider being killed by AS50's par for the course. In fact if I'm killed by anything but an AS50 I'm normally somewhat pleased. I have an AS50 at the moment and am in the process of expanding my murder count. Shut up, it's realistic. DIe and lose an m14 aim and I'm a bit pissed, die and lose an As50 and it's all good, I'll get one inside half an hour.

You're an idiot. Why can't people understand if something's made to be 'cross platform' the PC side suffers. What makes this game great will surely be sucked out with a crappy console version, then the WHOLE game will fail, so bye bye both versions. PC game makers need to stop being seduced by this quick fix model and make something truely great, then they'll really make money. I fear rocket won't listen to us. People will be out in a micro second if this goes to consoles. Yeah, think you'll get those 15 year olds with their pocket money to pay for a hard game like this? Nah son.

Did I deny they had zeroing or milldots? (dmr can't zero) Sounds like you're denying people run around with their duped AS50's shooting people at close range? Have you seen that weapon? It's like 5 feet long, it has no business being in a post apocalyptic world, especially when every second person has one. Guess you just like 1 hitting people, right?

Seriously, data plan? You must be american or something, you guys get raped with internet over there. In the UK it's all you can use on every decent provider.

If rocket FIXED the alt + F4 problem, it wouldn't be an issue, would it?

I've looted like 6? as50's in the last 2 days, it's the most common sniper rifle people drop now (because of hacking/duping) and quite frankly, it's boring. No one wants a challenge though, no one wants to learn how to use mil dots and snipe with the m24 or DMR, they just want their COD style quick scope 1 hit kills, eh 'kid'?

People can use any rifle in game to shoot someone inside a vehicle, so this is just an excuse "Let me keep my 1 hit kill weapon". Has no business in game, I think most of us can admit that. Those who can't just want easy mode.

These rifles shouldn't be in game. The dupers will disagree, they love their no skill 1 hit kills. I love killing people in DayZ, but I can derive no pleasure whatsoever from doing it with these guns, it's just god mode. Personally, I'd remove all sniper rifles from the game, because imo they don't fit in with the setting at all. Hell, we should basically only have pistols, shotguns and some light rifles. However I understand this may be too much, some should stay, like the Cz and the DMR.

Every. Single. Time. a gaming company ports something to console they say "Don't worry, the PC version won't suffer, it'll still be super awesome!". Every. SIngle. Time. They are fucking lying. Guess rocket just see's dollar signs in his eyes now, if he goes ahead with this. Which I find unlikely.

Anyone I know that's stopped playing or is playing less is doing so because of the hacking. At this stage is very difficult, if not impossible for an honest player to play at all. It's god mode/invisible/flying into the sky on every server.

Anyone who think the declining player numbers are because of anything but hackers is in serious denial, that's why most people I know have stopped playing.

'There will always be hackers'. Yeah, but on most games it's at most a once a week affair that you're shocked to actually see, on DayZ it's almost every server now, at any time of day.

The number will continue to go down as the hacking gets worse and worse, it's becoming increasingly pointless to play DayZ at all.

What do you want to see in the full game? I really hope they fix the alt + F4 problem and the hacking, I wouldn't count on either though. I'd love love LOVEEE to be able to hog tie people, then cart them around in a van or something, perhaps I could run a mobile 'survivor resale unit'. 2 cans of beans for your very own live survivor to play with. Perhaps hog tied people speaking on direct chat would sound muffled, to simulate being gagged. We could get our very own slave trade going. Player 'hides', wouldn't it be nice to decorate your camp with the hides of your enemies? An interactive world you can build in. It'd be so awesome to make someone dig their own grave, or better yet - mass graves for large groups of captured survivors. Not to mention you could build your own bases etc. Minefields perhaps?

Battleye making real inroads here, I was only teleported 5 times tonight out of 7 servers.

Every time you see someone on forums caring too much, asking for special treatment and saying bandits are the devil - you know, deep in your heart...that's a script kiddie waiting to happen or in the process of looking out DayZ scripts on google. Their shit got rolled one too many times in game and after realising the mod wasn't going to hold their hand for them they had a revelation... HAXXING WILL MAKE IT BETTA. It's painfully obvious reading their QQ threads that they're the type of impatient kiddies they don't want to/can't win on merit, therefor they request 'easy' mode, then resort to scripting when that doesn't happen. Hacking in an online game is nothing more than a slow motion version of overturning the table in anger. It's the admission that you don't have the intelligence or skill to compete with normal players, though many mental hoops are probably jumped through by these cretins to convince themselves that's not the case. So, whenever you see a carebear on the forum bleating like a stuck pig, know that he could well be the guy carpet bombing cherno next time you're online.

Good, go play WarZ. Few bullet points and some concept art makes for a great game.
