How I feel fighting against Hackers
hothtimeblues replied to Sniper-Wolf's topic in General Discussion
Its pretty bad. I wonder if the increase is because of the fact that its so popular and easy to hack dayz that more and more sites are selling the hacks and having to lower the price due to competetion. So we are seeing exponential growth of hackers. Its freaking ridiculous. I know Bohemia doesnt seem to mind but at what point does Steam become concerned and worried about reputation and quality? Is dayz not the most hacked game ever sold on steam? -
Good Questions. I would think the vehicles will behave similar to the mod but more refined and tighter controls/physics.
-
Ah come on and just tell us. You will not be in trouble for telling us how to get up and which buildings. There is no way to tell which building you are talking about. Pretty soon, helicopters will allow us to get up on top of any of them anyways. (well, maybe not soon).

Well if you want to quote realism.... then how is it realistic that I found 25 markovs to only 2 magazines for the markov?That's way unrealistic so I can't believe you are citing realism as the reason there are no .45 magazines. And thank you everyone for telling me about sticks. I didn't know it was easy to find the right bush or tree. I asuumed only certain trees would allow it and it would be hard to find.

Oh that is interesting that a lot of people are saying the wipe is this Wednesday, but as your post shows, they said only once they stop the dupe exploits. So either they won't wipe wendnesday at all. Or they will find out later it's harder to stop all the exploits within the next patch or two and decide to wipe anyways. Does anyone think they can really stop the 3 or 4 different methods of duping wihtin the next patch or two? I find that unlikely. So they either will not wipe for a long time, or they will wipe without stopping all the duping methods.
-
Oh yeah thanks for reminding me. Where do most people find sticks? Do I have to look for certain trees? I ask because I did not see sticks in buildings anymore.

Should Rocket go sooner rather than later?
hothtimeblues replied to banjo (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Again. If you made a few million dollars from a very creative idea.... would you really be upset about people questioning how the development of your idea is being managed? It's helpful to the dayz project if the team leaders get a little criticism. Does your generation not allow criticism anymore? Is everyone getting a trophy no matter who wins or loses? Good grief, he is a millionaire now. I don't think he is sobbing because we are asking if the project could be better led. -

hothtimeblues replied to banjo (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
It's called life. I'm sure with all the new found wealth someone can gladly put up with a little ciriticsm or questioning. It's far greater of a diservice to the success of DayZ to not question or care. -
lol, so true. For 8 freaking days I had a broken arm and could not find one freaking morphine for over 7 or 8 day of playing. Once I finally found one.... I starting finding 2 or 3 every day. and what is with the .45 auto pistol magazines? I swear to God I have not seen one single .45 auto pistol mag in about 10 days of playing. But I've seen literally 25 Markov pistols. (but only 2 mags) Seriously devs? 25 Markovs in a few day of playing but almost no pistol mags? And limiting pistol mags does not limit KOS. Pistols are very difficult to kill someone with in Dayz right now. If every pistol came with a mag, we would not have any increase in KOS.

hothtimeblues replied to banjo (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
True. I will say that with Navmesh being added to the game, even though it needs a lot of work.... I will agree that it is important progress. It's the first time I'm noticed they improved the gameplay mechanics. I love DayZ. And I wish Dean and Bohemia success. I hope the completed game is epic and does well. -

hothtimeblues replied to banjo (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I'm confused. Are you saying that any of the above mentioned fixes are working yet? And I mean the important ones. We still have ambient sounds, desync, clunky controls that are actually getting worse, oh, and guess what else.... more freaking hackers than I've ever seen in my life. So excuse me for not understanding how I'm supposed to believe the game has improved leaps and bounds. I guess I'm insane. -

hothtimeblues replied to banjo (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
He may be a great person, and a great leader on the battlefield, or in a game of football. Sure. But we have every right to wonder if he is a great game development leader. Video games have very specific needs for development. One has to understand limitations, time-frames, marketing, who knows.....Until I see a noticeable difference in the broken core of Dayz which is very much the same as it's been for over a year..... I whole-heartedly question if Dayz is on a correct and timely path. Is it not reasonable to believe that if the creator had sold his idea and turned it over to a more experienced development leader who could delegate where to put talents onto different problems...... etc..... would we perhaps have a further completed game today? -

hothtimeblues replied to banjo (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
All of that important work you refer to is great. But when will any Dayz player ever see any of what you just mentioned? That is the question. They can say they are working on a Jessica Alba robot that looks and acts real that we can all purchase when it's finished. But until I actually see any of it working, or that it exists at all..... I ain't holding my breath and believing it will ever come to be in my lifetime. -

hothtimeblues replied to banjo (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Are you seriously trying to argue about this? Rocket has already announced he is leaving so your whole argument that creative minds who sell their ideas should be in charge of the entire development process just blew up in your own face. -

hothtimeblues replied to banjo (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
They way you were responding to whoever's post you made it sound like the Dayz team has desperately tried to add things to the game because that's what players are demanding. I was saying that's not true. Most people want game to work right and could care less about new content. I know you guys are saying they are not supposed to fix the core yet in alpha and just add new content. But this engine is so bad, that adding things to it is a waste of time because they essentially have to start all over again in my opinion. -
When are the devs going to allow us to do something about the hacks?
hothtimeblues replied to lvcrxrcr's topic in General Discussion
Thank you for sharing our frustration. -

hothtimeblues replied to banjo (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
They dont have much in common. One guy worked hard in his industry for 25 to 3o years before striking it rich while the other guy had a very creative idea and stuck it rich over night. They have nothing in common. -
If you questions how bad the sound problems are on this game you will get yelled at and they will say... "but they hired a freaking sound expert so shut up". So good luck with your sound questions.

hothtimeblues replied to banjo (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
What are you talking about? We would much rather have a fixed core, not tents and persistent loot. I didnt ask for new guns or new towns. I would have been happy if not one single new item was created in the last 9 months and they simply worked on a new engine and fixed the broken core........ Because they knew the game could not handle more zeds or a working core. This whole idea that Dayz leaders were trying hard to appease the players makes no sense. Their job should be to fix the game. -

hothtimeblues replied to banjo (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
But even before he announced he was leaving the whole dayz project was unprofessionally managed. -

hothtimeblues replied to banjo (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I mentioned this too. When a person has a great invention, he does not manage the factory of the company that buys his idea. Its best to just sell your idea and let professionals build and market it. All the delays.... All the bad ideas like limiting loot across all servers...... This is all because Dayz is mismanaged and has inexperienced leadership. I feel bad for the devs who are taking the brunt of it. -
Its not a big deal. Alpha has lots of glitches.
-
I am so sick of all the speed hackers. Who the fuck is getting rich off of selling all these speed hacks? Dayz must be breaking records for most hacks ever purchased for an alpha. They are world champions.

DayZ moving to new engine - ENFUSION
hothtimeblues replied to nexventor's topic in General Discussion
Yeah to be fair, I will hold final judgement of zombies after all of the core is fixed. It is unfairto judge zombies at current state. -
DayZ moving to new engine - ENFUSION
hothtimeblues replied to nexventor's topic in General Discussion
Well Navmesh really let me down so Im hesitant to be excited about another fancy name/feature called enfusion. Just telling us how they are fixing it would have been good. Coming up with a marketing ploy in order to dazzle or distract us is troubling.
