    Describe your first kill

    Made my way to Zeleno Military Compound, armed with my mighty fists. See two guys from outside the walls, they're talking from the prison as it seems. can barely hear them but I catch something like "Grab....phone... back ... bout 5 minutes" I go prone. One leaves the front door to loot the baracks. As soon as he enters, I Usain Bolt inside the prison. see AFK guy standing under the stairway, immediately start punching the shit out of him. 4 hits to the face and hes knocked out. Get his M4, Vest and Helmet, give AFK guy a headshot and he dies. Suddenly hear footsteps behind me. Its his friend coming back. I turn around and we shoot each other in the face. I drop dead. Pretty sure he died as well.
  2. Some well thought ideas here. I have to say this is one of the best and advanced suggestions I have read to really seperate DayZ from mindless shooter games. My thoughts regarding perks not being for campers: Lets say f.e. stamina only increases if you sprint for a certain amount each day (3km for example). So it wouldnt increase while youre logged out or afk/camping but it would if you were actively improving it. Either by reaching certain amounts or having a level of progress but... I guess level and skills have been discussed before and many players don't like it for various aspects. "Soft" perks would be fine though, at least for me. Well anyway, I have faith in rocket and his team. Dean said hes gonna make a hardcore zombie survival game for the ultimate DayZ experience that many people would probably not like. Imo this was a clear message to all deathmatch players and I'm pretty confident he still aims to deliver on something that is not just a Free For All PVP game with full loot.

    Stream Sniping A Huge Problem

    much english much grammar very wow on topic: stream sniping has been there ever since the Mod got famous. There is no general solution to this and there never will be as long as server tracking goes on. Deal with it.

    OP I'm leaving a big fat NOPE here for you.
  6. Hi guys, I'm a server admin and was recently testing if I could add non-legit weapons, f.e. the AS50 TWS to my scripts.txt I think I understood how the scripts.txt works, but I was having issues while testing. So I basically just added 5 "BAF_AS50_TWS" Intention was to prevent players from spawning it but it didn't work as expected. I exchanged the scripts.txt with the new one and thats where my issues began. After that, everyone who entered the server was kicked while loading (Script Restriction #110), even after Server Restart and re-loading scripts.txt Had to reinstall the server to get back the old scripts.txt, after that the #110 issue was gone. I somehow think this might be because the AS50 TWS is somehow "detected" in the client data but I'm not sure at all. If anyone would like to help me out, I'd be thankful. If I tried total nonsense here and you can explain to me why it is nonsense, I'll also give you my beans.

    Script Restricting AS50 TWS ?

    @Gogster so it should've been in createvehicle.txt because the ammo boxes are usually spawned in via "CreateVehicle" ? would make sense. does this mean I could add any non-legit weapons in my createvehicle.txt, which would kick a player if one of the weapons i added do match a weapon in his ammobox script? @linkinxp I highly doubt my server provider is allowing me to install that. thanks for the hint anyway.
  8. It's just pointless to play on hive servers. Everyone playing this Mod for more than 3 weeks is (or should be) having access to nearly every weapon in this game. They all hang around in Cherno and Elektro, PKing all day long. When they die they leave the server to get their gear back from their tents, then return to the coast. THIS IS SO BORING. Then there still are many scripters around.. teleporting and scriptkilling is still going on.. it's ridicolous, I can't count how many scripters appeared (teleported) right next to me in the last week. Didn't even try to shoot em, this mostly made them think I'm (hacker-)friendly. Each time ending up in them spawning medi boxes full of weapons for me. But... Bleh, I wouldn't even take an Enfield Mag out of their boxes.. it ruins the game for me. Most of my DayZ are currently spent playing on a Private Hive. Not even ONE single hacker in a week, admins clear out tents after 3 days to prevent duping, PvP DCers get permbans.... many good gunfights and banditry, but also loads of people being friendly and randomly grouping up.. on private hives like this, it's just like the old DayZ :)

    I admit defeat

    Playing DayZ the bandit way is for noobs. Catching an AS50 from a tent and killing the shit out of people doesn't require much to do it. Playing DayZ the hero way is pro. Only kill bandits, help survivors and other heroes whenever you're able to. This requires more than clicking a mouse button: it needs social skills.

    To the -gay- team

    You did the right thing. Offering a helping hand shows that you and your guys aren't the average brainless bandits. Having your squad flanking them before getting in contact is understandable. Too bad these homos did such a bitch move. At least you gave them what they deserved. If I was one of them, I'd been grateful for your help and would've offered you some of my goods (food/medicine) to thank you. Keep on moving like you did, cuz one day we might meet up and I will salute next to your car if you offer me help.
  11. very nice video, like it, mostly because you take out whole squads all by yourself. good job!
  12. For the love of narsil, here we go: __________________________ Hi guys, last week i caught this guy hacking on my own server (DE 845): ... He was spawning hacked weapons, f.e. G36C SD and AS50 TWS and spawned AI units as well. That guy teleported all players to cherno and suddenly everyone was killed. He's using some kind of ESP and was able to destroy all tents and vehicles over the map. He was even able to spawn vehicles. Rocket, please ban him and his [b|F] Clan friends because all of them are using the hacks on servers. ______ quite obvious you're german and used google translator. please read the forums, DayZ Devs do not ban players, BattlEye does. // Was für eine grauenhafte google Übersetzung. Bitte lies die Foren, die DayZ Entwickler bannen keine Spieler, das ist BattlEye's Job.
  13. Hey there. I'm right now next to a tent on a server and yeah... it's not mine. It contains 3 AS50 TWS which means it's just what I've found in tent through the last weeks: A LOT of AS50 TWS, some G36C SD, Golden Revolver and even a golden AK. Tons of shit that doesn't belong into the game. Problem is: People kill a hacker or find a hacker stash, take that shit back to their home server and dupe that hackcrap in their own tents afterwards. This is so funny. All the people complaining about hackers but trying to benefit from hacks as much as they can. Anyway, I came to the point where I started fucking up these hack weapon duping assholes (I suppose most of them don't run hacks themselves). I duped so much Sandbags, Wire Fencing Kits and Tank Traps in my own tents that I have a nearly unlimited supply of these things. Now most of the time I'm on my way through the woods with my Coyote and inventory fully stocked of items that lock down your damn hack weapon tents. Today a clan of 6-8 members was looking out for me because I completely locked down their as50 tws tents with so much barbed wire, sandbags and tank traps... they were desperately trying to remove it... but failed and gave up... Hahaha that was great fun people. Well guys.. if you stored some hacked weapons, don't be pissed if you get what you deserve. If I find that shit in your tents then be sure you won't be able to take it out again. cheers!
  14. Wanna know the difference? Tank traps don't have a thermal sight. They do not oneshot people in the middle of the night, neither used by kids on Elektro sniper hill. They might break your legs if you're stupid enough, but thats it.

    Another "I quit because..."

    PvtBeaner I really admire how you try to reply to the close-minded guys you've mentioned in your original posting. I've lately noticed many kids talking on directchat so maybe the immature part of the community is rising up leading to a more and more immature community. Just guessing. I share your thoughts about PvP, it's not adding anything right now, as you said "i shoot you, you shoot me". Really appreciate your efforts but I think it will take some time until all the rotten apples fall down from the tree called "community".
  17. Hello dear Server Admins! I'm hosting my own HackZ server for about 2 weeks now. Before I became an admin myself, I rarely met any hackers and thought there wouldn't be more than 10% of all players cheating. Now I know better. By now it's nearly 25%, that means 1 out of 4 guys is hacking. This is not DayZ anymore, i pefer to call it HackZ. I've been killed by invisible or porting hackers about 10 times in the last week. It's awful to have to kick masses of players if you don't know WHO is the cheater. I do not want or like to kick or even ban players who did absolutely nothing. Luckily I managed to get to know someone who has an undetected map hack running. He's not playing with me or my group, he's just somewhere in the woods tracking suspicious players. In the last week, he told me EVERY evening about at least 3-4 people who were teleport-killing other players and spawning vehicles en masse. This guy is the MOST EFFECTIVE CHEAT PROTECTION, his speed of detection is insane, which makes him 1000 times better than BattlEye. "Someone just spawned a huey near Kamenka. His name is ... oh wait, there's a second one who just ported over to him. His name is..." I Log on to RCon, BANHAMMER INCOMING - 2 cheaters less. I think it's quite sad to say this but you better have your own friendly hacker to detect others because the games anti-cheat engine is totally worthless. If this guy is going to leave my server one day, I will shut it down and never try to set up a new one - unless there will be an extremely improved anti-cheat protection in this mod. Another bad thing is that server admins get their servers blacklisted/ disconntected from hive if they kick/ban too much. This means if many hackers visit your server and you do not know who it is you'll have to kick/ban many players to re-obtain power over your server. This will lead to a server blacklist. Hackers win, server admins lose. It's not going to change as long as useless BE is running.
  18. I'm somehow impressed that there isnt 2 pages of people swearing at me like "you're supporting hackers yourself" and stuff. Glad at least Legacy and some more of you guys understood. As I said before we are not playing with him, we have a straight agreement that he will not spawn, port or kill anything or anyone. He's only hunting hackers and oh my gosh he's damn good at it. I highly doubt what he does still matches the common hacker out there. If he wasn't there, I'd have to choice to let hackers take over the server or to kick everyone I don't know. For me, both choices are inacceptable. Most players on my server actually benefit from that guy because he provides that they can play the game how it was intended, without being turned into animals or port-killed or whatever. Even though I didn't mean this thread to be a general recommendation how to solve the hacking problem because as Legacy already said I'm risking a server blacklist. I was just trying to point out that the hacking problem has reached the boiling point. Not saying having your own hacker would be a legit way to handle it. Believe me, I'd be more than happy to tell our guy that his abilities won't be needed any longer, but I don't see that happening at the moment.

    Got killed by hackers 3 times today.

    Totally feel you bro. I loved DayZ and what the game was about for me but sadly I have to admit it's not worth playing anymore, at least in its current, totally hacker infested status. There were two hackers who killed me today on my own, rather low populated server.. yesterday another two were scripting in lots of helis for them and their friends, some days ago we found loads of hacked AS50 TWS and a guy flew above me killing me with an LMG, and so on, and so on... Well.. playing this ALPHA (no, I didn't call it "game") becomes more and more ridicolous. Actually it makes no sense to invest hours and hours again and again just to turn into a well geared toy for any hacker visiting your server. I can handle any legit kind of PvP death, I do not even care about gear anymore cause it's not that big deal to get top gear if you're playing in a decent group. But at this point where hackers basically OWN AND RULE DayZ I see myself losing interest in wasting any more of my time.
  20. Hi guys, we just found out that there is a hacker on US 10 Chicago, maybe affiliated with/ or even one of the server admins. A Ural was parked at a tent camp we found, it contained 5x AS50 TWS and some Makarov SD. One of us hijacked the Ural while nobody was in the camp. While driving for about 10 minutes heading north/north east our mate at some point leaves the Ural to look for an animal. Suddenly, someone speedhack/teleports himself right to the Ural, gets in and runs our mate over, yelling "GO DIE" in direct chat. None of us had fraps running, I don't care if you gonna response with some "proof or didnt happen" crap. I just posted this here for you guys to avoid this server at any chance, at least until an admin of the server has made a statement. The hacker's camp btw. is located at 004/110, I bet that stupid hacker took his Ural full of Thermal AS50s back there.

    DayZ Stories

    Like many of Chernarus citizens I'm somehow getting used to the frequent hacking/scripting atm. Well, the thing is I always thought of all of them are total assholes. I was wrong. Its just the (99%) bad hackers who teleport themselves right next to me, killing me while they are in god mode.. yeah, these guys are douchebags, but I'm not upset about losing gear. I enjoy fresh spawns. Actually me and some friends joined a server which we assumed to be a regular hive server, BE also was running.. we found out much later it was a "private" non-hive server. So no big suprise that I manage to spot a guy near Kamenka driving around with a motorcycle. He instantly draw our attention and the four of us, all unarmed, ran over to him and saluted to that as50 carrying, ghillie suited guy on the motorcycle. Usually I get shot at that point whenever I meet a hacker (I like to run towards them, especially if I'm unarmed). But that guy tells us he would like us to suggest some funny things to do and claims that "funny things" do not mean playerkilling in any way. We all agree and suggest him to give bicycles to all of us so we can have our own "Tour de Chernarus". He laughs and gives each of us a bicycle, we travel around for like an hour. On our way, we meet another guy with a DMR scouting in a field next to the street. He shouts out "I'm friendly" and he doesn't lie, he probably already got that 5 guys on bikes can't be legit.. anyway, that ghillie guy tells him that he likes people being friendly and gives him a bike as well. We talked a lot to him while traveling, he also gave us decent weapons "but only to defend yourself against zombies, not to hunt players" he said. Traveling with him was epic fun to this point. When we came back to the South, we decided to give our bikes away to anyone we would meet in Elektro. Unfortunately, a guy on the fire station opened fire and killed 2 of us. Another guy shot the ghillie suit guy from behind. I killed the one at the fire station, then the pistol guy ran down a hill towards me, obviously ran out of ammo. He yelled at me "YOU FKIN HACKERS CMON YOU LITTLE..." and so on, I killed him. I was so confused. A Huey suddenly came near Elektro. Our "friend" returned to us on an ATV to tell us that he had obviously pissed off another hacker who teleported himself over to him, swearing at him all the time. I told him we were sorry and wondered how we could piss of ANYONE as neither me, my mates or that ghillie suited guy harmed any other player in any way. After that, we switched servers to play our hive chars, who had been killed yesterday by a guy who shot all 5 of us in 3 seconds with an AS50, we were convinced he was using an invisibility hack. I've learned something about hackers. Not everyone of them has fun nuking Cherno. Try to talk to them if they're obvious, be friendly. Still most of them will shoot you because most of them are douchebags. There may be just one in thousand hackers like the one we met, but after all at least some hackers have more sense for humanity than the average player does.

    Kamikaze Gone Wrong! Funny!

    had a good laugh, already subbed to your utube a week ago right after watching your "fun with a noob" series.
  23. Hey guys, when me and some guys joined a server (i think it was LU163, but not sure) today, some of us reported there was flames in the sky which usually means there has to be a crashed aircraft somewhere near. So we investigated the area to finally find a crashed aircraft in the middle of the woods north of Kamenka. We found out that this must have been a jet aircraft, facing it we were able to "Save A-10", which lead us to this one: Has it been hacked in, or is there a way to find this thing now?
  24. There was no need to blow it up since it wasn't repairable and totally destroyed, according to all the trees on the ground that hacker must have sucked at flying. To be honest, hacking seems to grow like crazy at the moment. For weeks I've NEVER EVER encountered a hacker. In the last week, two hackers were flying over me, trying to kill me from above while yelling at me, we found a hacked AS 50 with Thermal sight in a tent, now we find a crashed jet aircraft... seems like the average script kiddie tools work very well atm.
