tents are bugged, its just that tents not properly cleaned up with 1.7.2.4 or some update before that are not updated, and refil on restart just how they were tey also never despawn, or keep stuff you put into them its a bug, and admins banning you for exploiting is as legal as duping, no one can get you doing it, and no one really gives a sh*t how it seems, though it utterly destroys gameplay, thats the only thing admins can do to protect players playing the game the way its intended and tell your nice alt+f4ing friend that he deserved it

not able to carry an m107 and a coyote? you guys are so pro.. lol get your sh*t right also, i am way better than you guys, i killed elmo with a tractor

people who complain about complaining: STOP seriously, read the post of rocket regarding a creative process needing two sides, not just one praising everything golden, but also one side pointing out the things that are not-so-golden

well, it would help though to see WHO kills who with what in the server logs just to get rid of the script kiddies

a few days i headed to NWAF, i took an extremely sneaky round, heading there from the back of the mountain, in a forrest, at nighttime, a DARK night, just to be killed instantly by a 50 caliber (which we know have no NVG capability), at a spot only visible from the back of the mountain (the side not pointing to the NWAF) we were checking our surrounding with L85 rifles all the time, and i saw only one person with my thermal scope up the hill: 1)Why would a sniper sit on the BACK of the mountain? 2)how could he see us that fast in the woods? 3)how could he snipe us while we were moving at night (he had no NVG or thermal when he would've been legally equipped) i can imagine it was a hacker, or a really lucky guy, or someone feeling good picking up a thermal sniper rifle from a dead hacker, or being a the wrong place at the right time, but even then he sniped us from so far away with a .50 in the night... thats more than improbable so yes, long story short, i dont go north anymore...

well, there are two types of bandits: RP bandits: living up to the word "bandit" and killing or threatening to kill for loot DayZ normal bandit: theres someone, shoot him! hurdurr (so, basically everyone) also, bandit doesnt mean you're pvp oriented, EVERYONE is pvp oriented, bandit means you are the one shooting first, asking questions later i am a survivor, but not a hello-kitty one if i see a player and think he will shoot me, i put a bullet between his eyes without hesitation if i dont think he will kill me right away, i try to talk to him and just because i sometimes shoot people out of caution or bad feeling doesn't mean i am a bandit i dont understand what "shooting someone out of fun and not looting him" has to do with banditry, but the word bandit describes just that in the dayZ community, just like everyone knows what someone means saying "hacker" and some people are pussys about the definition of the word

at day, its far beter then the DMR: more dmg higher accuracy A RANGEFINDER opposite to none at all if you know how to read te range of the targets, its one of the best sniper rifles against soft targets ammo a problem? lol, not before 1.7.2.5

been to green mountain fairly often, since there are two vehicle spawns... theres something fishy going on up ther, just cant point the finger on it... always dead zombies with loot, never players, and every time i am up there, i lose my sense of direction

bunnies with LMGs? we are all f*cked

yep, people destroying tents are either trols or they allready have a camp and want a disadvantage of other players i always wonder why there are so many tent cities, when hiding a single tent and making a few tents well hidden is so much easier and safer

great work, keep it going, at least those cheaters got to spend more money for new copies

There are three things making dayZ way too easy and unplayable: 1)Rapant hacking (if you never ebcountered hackers before, get on a server with more than 2 people) 2)Duping and glitched tents 3)Unlimited ammo This three things turn the normal gameplay of dayZ: I spawn, i collect stuff from a town with loot spawns and head north, where the better stuff is, maybe i find a low tier gun, maybe nothing into: I spawn, i found a camp with 25 ghillies and L85 + AS50 with ammo once, i still know where it is, i get the stuff, and have full equip after 10 minutes and have nothing to do than searching for vehicles When searching in the night, i get sniped from 800 meters away with a .50 gun (no NVG, dark night, so probably a thermal hacked weapon)

you basically just negated your response nr.1 with your response nr.2

i think its the rampant cheating and duping, which both destroys the whole atmosphere of dayZ It's at the time just like any other arcade shooter Once you find a tent that has duped stuff in or is glitched like all tents (not updated, take anything in there, server restart the tent is full again) you are requipped and can go on a rampage, theres people all over the place running around with L85+AS50 with nato ammo, because of duping, and unlimited ammo relogging also, hackers bring guns into the game, once a hacker was killed, congratz, you have now a AS50 or M107 with thermal which you can dupe as much as you want, and its even legal and not to track with battleye or server logs balance is so off these days, i dont even know how to start with it because of the two reasons given above

as far as i know, the standalone will be based on arma3 engine, and guess what anti cheat they will be using.... battleye!

the problem is that the logs tell you nothing if they hooked into the dll files (or something lke that, not sure how its done) log files dont even show WHO killed someone, even if the hacker teleports in the admins face and kills him, he cant find out who did it you only get the normal messages "xyz was killed" even in the logs if you culd actually see who shot who with what gun, it would be hell of a lot easier, i cant see the problem with that

yep, almost as bad as the hacking going on, happening on all servers i know of with 1.7.2.5 everyone just runs around with an AS50 and a L85 AWS, its getting really annoying

I dont really know how we are supposed to test the game when hackers manipulate it so easily and devastating we arent experiencing dayZ at the moment, but only the script techniques of arma2 and trust me, once your server gets a little popular, hackers will ruin your day

sadly, i agree since the last week, my favorite server has severly been attacked by hackers, and the admin cant do anything about it when they dont appear in the server logs since its an alpha, at least give admins the ability to track players loot/positions/kills/deaths in the server logs until hacking is solved by battleye or Bohemia

that has to be the utmost troll vehicle in the game then^^

I dont think Sniperjay is a hacker, i think you confused skill with hacking He is a VERY good sniper

So, a day or two ago i found a tractor a little bit south of zelenogorsk stuck in a stone wall I managed to get it out a few minutes later and decided to drive through chernogorsk honking like an idiot (because i am that way) So i drive south to pavlovo, and on half way someone is running north on the road with good equipment how it seemed (M16 M203 i think, alice pack etc.) I dont think he really noticed me or ran without looking, as ran him right over, a message saying "elmo was killed" popping up a second after that sorry elmo :_( http://www.google.de/imgres?um=1&hl=de&safe=off&client=firefox-a&sa=N&rls=org.mozilla:de:official&biw=1041&bih=759&tbm=isch&tbnid=jXlLgKQg2S-69M:&imgrefurl=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elmo&docid=CoAxr3jHgdzDNM&imgurl=http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/48/Elmo.PNG/220px-Elmo.PNG&w=220&h=210&ei=eEsdUI3rEJPV4QSivoDgDg&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=112&vpy=94&dur=1350&hovh=168&hovw=176&tx=79&ty=189&sig=102312216174087469212&page=1&tbnh=153&tbnw=133&start=0&ndsp=15&ved=1t:429,r:0,s:0,i:138 so, i drove through cherno honking like a mad man a few minutes later, nothing happens, not getting shot or anything I drive over a bridge, and suddenly the tractor gets launched 10 meters into the air, landing on the side, but not exploding or giving me damage it was about then when i got out of the thing, and noticed the tractor had a few AS50s and DMRs, ghillies, L85 AWS etc. in it, grabbed the loot and ran away great day, first time running someone over with a tractor^^ and i killed elmo

seriously guys, stop spamming the patch notes from 1.7.2.5 with "FIX IT FIX IT FIX IT FIX IT FIX IT" it's getting annoying it is as if you'd be screamed at by your children while fixing the car tire "Drive NOW daddy, NOW NOW NOW! DO IT!"

recently found soldier clothing in a tractor, too didnt put it on, but was very confused as to if it was hacked in or not

but i dont wanna do math :( to the OP: if its so glitchy and hackers dont get banned while legit players get banned, let me guess: you got banned but i bet you werent playing legit, instead i take another guess here and say you got banned for ghosting/server hopping or a hack you found in the internet you thought would be okay to do if not, you're just making assumptions and are a fool, i never heard of people getting banned while playing legit
