Your first 7 words call bullshit on the rest. Good riddance to ya.

Also the same. My buddy and I both getting kicked from multiple servers by Battleye script #90 and #98.

Local chat spamming? Just walk away, the local chat only covers about 50 meters. Or shoot them. Why are you so close being spammed? There is no global/side chat enabled unless you are playing on a non-hive, unofficial server. Change servers in that case.

LOL....nice try though on the sympathy getting. You hacked, bye bye.

I wish he did run the country. And please, keep banning away. SHitrats are not welcome, not even in the Alpha. Script kiddies and hackers can go elsewhere. Thanks for the good work Battleeye, Rocket and BI on the cooperation to help get these idiots off Arma2 and DayZ.

Just posting this hoping the admins of US 842 are around to see this. At 11:30 PM Pacific time tonight, August 6th (give or take a minute either side), someone ran the script that teleported all players to the ocean. If anyone can, look through your logs for that time stamp to find whoever ran that script. Also...if anyone knows....now that I'm out swimming in the water with no way to hit the respawn button, how to I get back to shore?

No, you can't dive down. You have to just bide the time; drain down your food, water and temp until it drains your life. It takes HOURS

It took about 3 hours of just leaving my game on with my guy in the water for the food/water/temp to hit low and drop me down to die. That teleport to the ocean really is a bugger and causes HOURS of inconvenience. The good news is that I finally died and respawned on the beach, immediately ran into a building and found a hatchet. As I was equipping the hatchet some poor unfortunate soul spawned 10 feet from me in the building, with an Alice pack and Enfield showing. I'm not sure he even knew what hit him. Thank you whoever you were. :rolleyes: Your Enfield and pistol and all the equipment will go to a good cause.

The new script detection was added to battleye today and server admins can set it up to ban for these types of scripts now. My guess is these scripters will be whining they have to buy new copies of ARma2 soon. :D

Some players have a lot of experience with Arma2. That with a good headset and you can tell where someone is shooting from very fast. Get a good 7.1 surround headset. Keep an eye on your surroundings, and scout a bit more/glass a bit more the horizon, treelines, bushes, main travel routes and if you see someone..ALWAYS do a thorough scan for whoever may be supporting them from a distance or hunting them as well. Ghillie suits don't provide as much cammo as you think, they tend to be big lumpy things. They are always easy to spot once you know what to look for, kind of an out of place big outline, even when laying down. When your buddy shot, the other guy could turn straight towards the sound and start looking for out of place lumps,like ghillie suited players.

I forget that so many come here to DayZ having never played Arma2. Play some regular Arma2, or do the boot camp for some training. They are easy to throw and airm once you get used to them.

Your mistake. Find new stuff.

No. ALT F4 just disconnects. Whenever I reconnect, no matter what server I'm waaaaay out in the ocean. I guess the script kiddies have found one that really pisses poeple off. Teleport to the water, it's not the debug plains so no auto-move on startup back to the beach and with no respawn button, we are all stuck out there.

My buddy and I were all geared up and logged into a server last night. We were in a somewhat dangerous place due to having to log off the night before. We are back, in a small building, 10 seconds goes by while we watch door and listen for sounds etc. Suddenly we hear someone come running, he runs around the corner knowing where we are, we both open up and lo' and behold neither one of our guns will fire. *click* *click* and he shoots us both dead. Frustrating and clearly some kind of a script to take away our ammo or something, not to mention seeing through walls or where we were. So it may have been a script/hack that you saw, could have been lag....but at the state of things, I'd lean towards a hack. (That however, not as frustrating as logging on to the next server for an hour and then the whole server being teleported to the middle of the ocean. Now I'm stuck swimming and can't respawn, looks like an hour swim to get to shore.)

Have you been out in the water long? Have you tried just letting yourself un out of water/food and dying?

As the title says, was playing tonight on US 842, and at 11:30 PM Pacific time, the entire server was teleported to the ocean. I posted this as well in cheat reports for the admins to hopefully check and be able to review their server logs for that action and player...who knows. My question is.......I'm now stuck out in the ocean. I have reloaded on another server and still swimming a good hour swim from land. I cannot respawn as there is no respawn button. How can I get reset or killed to be able to play from land again? My in game name is the same, Slyder73. Ideas anyone? The prospect of swimming for at least an hour (judging by how far those mountains look), is not workable. I'll simply not play until a fix happens. I did this already unable to play through an entire week or so debug land at a previous update. I'd rather not and would appreciate any helpful suggestions or direction on what procedure to follow. Thanks.

Any other suggestions besides trying to find a friendly neighborhood hacker? How have others solved this? I guess I can just turn the game and on leave for a while and let my character run out of food or water and die....

Meaningless unless we know your hours played. You could log on for 2 mins per day and walk 3 trees over and disconnect for the past 3 months and have that 90 days alive stat. Days alive means nothing.

Which is exactly why it's a shitty thing to do coming on here posting camp locations. Keep it in game or you bring on the idiots and ruin the whole clan war, experience, fun for everyone involved.

That is not a dog. It is the bush between you and the door.

As I said in another post..... People who came here for DayZ need to calm their jets a bit. The problem is all those scripts that are being run are NOT hacks. They are designed to be part of the Arma2 game. The regular servers have been runnign for years relying on the scripting ability built into the Arma2 engine to bring unique and fun missions and mods. A good mission maker can create a large scale combined arms combat mission for 30 or 60 players with triggers, teleporting from debug to spawns etc all in a few hours. Not many other games make that possible. The popularity of DayZ has brought a LOT of players who have no experience with Arma2. They don't realize what the game engine allows. Scripting is a problem in DayZ but it is meant to be there for Arma2, that is why Battleye doesn't kick for it. The Arma2 community is also a lot more mature and tends to have more integrity regarding gaming. Yes some still script and take advantage but with regular communities, individual admins can ban them or kick them or give them a warning. Figuring out HOW to recognize scripts being run on a regular game server as opposed to a DayZ server is not an easy task I imagine. So yes, understanding is needed.

Do you people even read the thread??? I will repost what I said earlier. You and those decrying Battleye seem to think it isn't blocking hacks. Those are NOT hacks that are happening in DayZ. The problem is all those scripts that are being run are NOT hacks. They are designed to be part of the Arma2 game. The regular servers have been runnign for years relying on the scripting ability built into the Arma2 engine to bring unique and fun missions and mods. Arma2 has been around and working fine for years. A good mission maker can create a large scale combined arms combat mission for 30 or 60 players with triggers, teleporting from debug to spawns etc all in a few hours. Not many other games make that possible. The popularity of DayZ has brought a LOT of players who have no experience with Arma2. They don't realize what the game engine allows.

Military grid coordinates, it is universal. In game GPS reads like real world maps do. You read the horizontal axis first then the vertical axis. The in game GPS is spot bang on.

Why would you out the locations like that? Kind of unsportsmanlike. You should just steal from them,then save the tents yourself and use them. If you really want to be the server police thats great. Just take everything dump it all on the ground and save the tent to yourself and pack it up. Bam, their camp is gone. If they are raiding the beach, good on them; it is up to the players on the server to deal with it. What makes you think your ASSumption that they are "campers" is valid? What makes you think you can come on here and judge whether other player's play style is good or bad? You don't like it, so what? What is a camper anyway? There are no campers in Arma2 or Dayz for that matter. Camping means a good, defensible location you can protect from intruders and use to raid and supply yourself from others (in DayZ), or terrorize others...all valid. Not camping. Camping is term best left in Counterstrike, where it belongs; we have matured since then. Coming on here and revealing the location of someone or some group's camp is kind of shitty.

Survival most assuredly includes surviving other players....likely as real as it would be in life if this catastrophe occurred. The zombie/infected are predictable, the human element is not. THAT is what causes people to whine (all hack/scripts aside and not included in this discussion), the fact that they get out played or out thought by someone who had to THINK to out do them. In most games like CoD and others that might be out there, the only skill that is required has nothing to do with thinking. It has to do with who can move the mouse or has the best memory of a map and locations and can run the little maze-like maps the fastest to get to the little spots the earliest. I really don't know how anyone plays the brain twitch, gratification crack like games like BF3 or CoD or whatever else. :huh:
