Why do companies even trust battleye?
TheMachine replied to TheMachine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I'm sorry, if that's a reference to some anime stuff then I'm sorry, if that's a reference to some weird anime stuff then I don't get it. -
Will DayZ be Mac Compatible?
TheMachine replied to TiredEthan's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Consumer toy? Everyone doing graphic design and web design use macs. I'd bet money a lot of the arma artwork was done on a mac, along with this website. Wrong, macs are superior machines for people who can afford it. These posts wreak of 'I built my own PC, I'm so awesome'. In answer to the OP, no the chances are slim. Use bootcamp. -
Read the post and the location of the poster I was quoting when I wrote that. I was being ironic. (no one's got it thus far, even that guy)

TheMachine replied to TheMachine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I just don't know how any serious game dev can look at their table row 2003ish website and think 'hey, this company can do great work for us'. It baffles me, why isn't there someone else doing proper anti cheat? -
Thanks, Bro. My work here is never done.
-
BE are totally incompetent. Don't be surprised if they ban you again then never unban you because they can do no wrong.
-
You'd hogtie unconscious players, they could only be released by someone with a hunting knife and they could only tactical roll very slowly. Of course if left for a sufficient amount of time they'd die of hunger. Hence you'd need to mouse over and 'feed' your hogtied survivors.
-
Trust me, if I ran the hog tied survivor trade it'd be a heck of a lot more efficient than 6 hours. We'd have you bartered out in 20 minutes for beans and guns. Don't be so reactionary all the time, wait and see what it's going to be like before you dismiss it.
-
People don't want to build character, they just want the easy way again and again. I say, bring on the hog tying, bring on the survivor trade. Surely it'd be a reality in a real end of the world scenario.
-
When you've played long enough you start to be able to tell what people are going to do by their body language. People look shifty, wearing caps to hide their eyes and face and what appears to be ammo pouches. It's blatantly obvious what they've up to.
-
Show me the rule that says it's not allowed, or shut up. You're one of those guys that probably wants safe zones and super best friends co-op play with no risk.
-
They might get a new owner who allows them to be un-hog tied for a brief period each day to collect beans and water. Never know.
-
Are you insinuating I broke any rules by putting players down like lame horses?

Hackers are just crappy players with small wangs
TheMachine posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The psychology of hacking has long been thought to stem from the idea of 'penetrating' a system in a quasi sexual way. Many players in games associate (subconsciously) their character with themselves and see the success of winning as 'penetration', hence the common computer gaming slang of 'raped'. Hackers (or more accurately, script kiddies) are poor players, slow of mind and body and with no ability to learn the game and succeed on merit. Because of this they turn to scripts to help them get weapons, become 'god' and 'dominate' other players. One very common thing hackers seem to do is play without 'god mode', then after being killed, flick their god mode switch and spawn back beside you to exact their revenge. They most likely justify it to themselves in some manner, 'he was probably cheating too', 'he didn't play properly, he had an unfair advantage' etc. They probably know however, that it's just because these players are better than them. It's my belief, that hackers have small penises. They must compensate for this inability to achieve penetration in real life with 'virtual' success in online games. It's the same reason guys with tiny wangs drive big cars and act like douche bags. It's also probably the same reason people whine about being killed so often on the forums, these people are all script kiddies waiting to happen. Owned in game? off to google to search for DAYZ MEGA SCRIPTZ! -waiting for hackers with micro penises to tell me I'm wrong and they're 1337- -
If i had my way, I'd round up every new spawn in the game, herd them onto a tiny strip of land at the coast (perhaps near cherno) and just keep them in there with barb wire fences. I'd also occasionally fly over and bomb them.
-
Truth. Sounds like fun! :D It's a game exploit, that's why.

Someone's mad he can't get out of a coastal spawn region without getting killed by a makarov. -
DayZ is currently only good for a quick derp around cherno killing people, try to do anything serious and I hacker will ruin you. Died 4 times to them yesterday.

We got a small wanged scripter here. -
Thats the main thing I do, tough guy. I'm not bragging, it's not hard to pop someone while they look up at you with a dull, listless look on their face, as if to say 'why me?'. It's called doing what needs to be done and it requires a certain kind of strength and conviction.
-
yup, shit happens bro. (Ps. its never going to be fixed)
-
They aren't going to blacklist you for not allowing 'morons and hackers', they're going to blacklist you for violating the rules of hosting a server. ie. - not fucking locking it.
-
I've tried to take slaves before, but they always try to rise up against their slavemaster. It's really frustrating, especially when you've given them food and water and kept them safe from zombies. So now I just don't take any chances.
-
Bro, I know what I'm doing.
-
2 minutes? Shit bro, i need to know what server you're playing on to spawn so fast! Doesn't even matter, 2 minutes or the usual 5. They'll spawn away from me, that's all that matters. I want them away from me or laying lifeless on the ground.
