We (the players) are allready infected. Thats why we allways have brain melting temparature (42C°) and we have infinite Stamina and we of course have a way higher methabolismn, thats why we have to eat and drink so often ingame. There is no point in this whole thread after all.

and you cant tell if you need food or drink. I think the exact amount of blood is an Important thing to know. If you´re below 9k blood the chance that a zombie knocks you out is significaly higher. And everybody knows how fast you can die because of that, a Single zombie break your legs in full sprint or simply knocks you out and then eats you. And if you´re below 4k blood you can randomly fall over. So Imho, the blood symbol isnt simply enough.

When you where looking through the gear of one of your mates, you could clearly see that one had soldiers clothing in his inventory.

This isnt allowed but sadly you are Providing no evidence, not even a Screenshot. And: the DayZ team doesnt seem to care because you see that very very often.

People that use Hacked weapons are not any better then hackers. Soldiers clothing, PDW SD, G36 SD, Laser Marker and so on. But still was kindah entertaining to watch, this reminded me of my own group.

You got that kill? I´ve done that with remote control, but as soon as I blewd him up, he DC´ed. Was a real shame because they are so rare.

We just had something similar on a german server. We where driving to a safe place to refuel our white off road pick up, when suddenly in the middle of the field the car stops, and starts burning. There wherent any shots fired and there where like 4 people on the server at this moment. It simply stopped moving and changed to a burning wreck. Our guys simply step out of the car, and fall over. There was no Explosion but we went from 12k blood down to 4 and the timer would have taken too long. I Never disconnected in a Firefight but after watching my blood fall below 3k I thought, fuck that and hit the button combo. My mate said he would make it and at the moment he got up again, hes dead. Btw its terrible that you cant have both anymore. (Debug and symbols) So, he said dont worry, He geared up quickly and came back in a matter of 20 minutes. Right when he approaches the wreck and I get in again, he says: "WTF, there is a Ghillie!" "What, where?" "Right behind you, he teleported behind you!" While my mate tried to kill him and hit him 3 times with the Leroy Enfield, the other guy just turns around shots him instantly in the Head. This took some seconds luckily, otherwhise I couldnt have disconnected. Like I said, im none of those combat dc´ers and so I takes at least 5 seconds for me to do so. I got no problem with loosing my gear in a Firefight, even if i get sniped. But I wont loose my stuff to a hacker and or random glitches again. My Character before on day 27 got Killed by a server hopper who logged in the southern barracks at the right time right when i wasnt looking. This game has a really shitty community basicly, I mean, they even post vids of them hacking/scripting in this very forum and are proud of themselves. Thread was "thank you" in the gallery, allready have been taken down.

Nah man, Betsy was very well hidden. Theres no way someone could have found her in those 2 hours. But it doesnt matter anymore. R.I.P. Betsy We´ll miss you.

Thats why we have our Main server choosen to be a low pop server. All those high pop servers with 50 of 50 players on them get nuked at least once a day. We had so much bullshit happen allready that we avoid servers with more then 20 people on it because of all those shit. A nice story for this happend a week ago. We found a Motorcycle and just drove it to the woods to hide it, when we got off it, saved it and ran to a near tree to log out a ghillie appears right next to the motorcycle and drives away with it. Took like a second for us to realize but he got away. At least 50% of the playerbase is using some scripts. Hell, I took some research and found tons of Forums where they talk about what "hack" to use and where to get it. They are offering those shit for like 10 bucks. Seriously?! I Dont really think it will get any better with the standalone. Its just a Matter of time. BE is bringing up propaganda all day trough the local BE client. "We banned 2.000 Hackers" and shit. 2000 from a player base of 100.000 is nothing. There are so many scripts undetected by it that like I allready said allmost 50% of the playerbase is using that. The Game is still enough fun for me though and I dont think the standalone will be any better. I am playing for about 6 months now and this game is still fun for me. Theres no chance those fucktards will ruin it for me. @Welch: Helghan belongs to the Helghast!

First of all, i´ve been playing this game for a very long time for now. I think I started around 1.6 where only about 50 servers where online in total and you had to spamjoin if you wanted to play. We play in a well organised and equipped crew (we are not a clan or something similar and we dont want to be). We had allready serveral "base severs" with camps on it, but after they got raided from time to time, sooner or later we started loosing interrest in setting up a "base camp". We where like wandering around and doing shit. Simply having fun and mostly avoiding PvP hotspots because the PvP is bullshit in this game. There is no point in playing fair if like 50% of the player base is using scripts, disconnects in the firefight or ghost´s you. Hell, we died more than once simply because some fagg was server hopping just right behind us. (Last one was "Bolt") But today, we found a Helicopter. It was like the friggin holy grail for us. I am kindah the designated driver and the only one with enough flying experience because of my normal Arma 2 playtime. And I allways loved to fly shit around, no matter what game it was. After finding this helicopter things went better and better. We found a massive campsite on our actuall main server and a SV3. I bet you know what we did next. Right, we raided the camp and got away. We now had like a truck loaded with all sorts of "High end" military grade weapons of all kinds and shapes with enough ammo to start a war on a small country. So, our group was full equipped and ready to go. SV3 with everything, Helo with jerry cans and ATV´s, Motorcycles and everything. Our main server restarts every 6 hours and right when we found a nice spot to hide that shit untill the server is back again, we decided to make a Break. After like 2 hours, we log back in again and everything is gone. My Helicopter, which I named "Betsy" was gone. I Didnt care four our loaded truck or everything else. But Betsy was gone. Allright I thought, lets keep calm. We started running around the last locations where we had to land, because this is DayZ and finding a vehicle at a savepoint earlier isnt new for us. Even though it should have been "fixed". We all know how this works. After spending like an hour, driving around with our last ATV and motorcycle we didnt found a shit. And we lost the ATV because it started jumping in the middle of a field right into a tree. At least noone of us died, right? When we where close to the NWAF we heard betsy for the first time. I was like pissing my pants but then I slowly realized I will have to shoot her. If i cant have her, noone else should have her. So we discussed the situation and came to the Conclusion it would be the best to go near a Central point of interresst like Stary. We did so and she came by. I was struggling but I hit her with my M107 right in the side. Somehow a conversation started in the server lobby trough the group channel and it turned out, that a guy called "OutlawXGP" had found her close to staroye. Thats not even close to where I left her. So there are like 2 main possibilitys. 1. They where scripters and stole it. 2.someone else did and left it there and they really found it. We where talkin about it and after some lines of text, he wanted to give it back to me. At least he said so. So I told him, to bring it close to vybor and leave it there. I wasnt actually close there but a mate was. He was waiting there for a couple of minutes until Betsy showed up. She was hovering above Dichina. Straight in the sights of my buddy, allready checking the distance and aiming at it. We where talkin about that the whole time. "I can shoot her or I could atleast the Door Gunner." "Wait for their actions, maybe they really land it!" ... 3 Minutes passed and I was sprinting my way there. "I´m dead." ... Those fuckers stole betsy and then killed my mate. They where hovering all the time above dichina and my mate could have killed Betsy and their thiefs. But our wish to get her back was bigger then our allready learned experience with others. I wasnt mad at this moment. I Simply was dissapointed. You know, I still read this forum since the beginning at least once a Day. And I came across dozens of threads of People "I dont kill others" or "I am a Good Guy" and all this bullshit. Everyone that reads those know how they are. Fuck that shit. All those claiming to be "Real Friendlies" are just people (at least most of them) which mostly run around the coast and have nothing of Value on them. This game is basicly pretty easy to gear up. Everyone with at least 1 week gaming experience would agree. You get decently geared up in like 30 minutes. But having a Helicopter, driving 2 hours down with the fucken Fisherboat at 14km/h from berenzino. Fixing up the Heli and all that shit. Is something completly different. Its not even similar to a campsite or having a Car. You waste so much time for fixing the heli and putting the 600 liters of fuel in it, everytime after server restart. its something complety different and a Thing you will of course get attached to. Because you really worked for that. Later on, back in the lobby chat. This guy "Tucker Dale" tells me that he crashed the heli somewhere between elektro and cherno. And the other guy "Panic shot" my mate. All sounded pretty shitty and I still dont believe any word of this shit. But still, thats not the point. And I am still not mad. I am simply dissapointed. We had her for like an Hour. Just to came back online and shes gone. Basicly it was most propably my worst DayZ day so far. We allready had a lot of bullshit happen to our group. But thats a whole different level. We learned our lesson, again. Next time we´ll kill her. Next time we´ll guard her. Poor betsy. :( And to all those claim to be friendly guys: Fuck You. I am still not Mad. No hard feelings. The Worst thing about this game arent the Bugs, its not the Hackers and not the alpha state. The Worst thing about this game is You, the community.

I Would assume you missed the shot and ran in the opposite direction. Dont get me wrong about that whole topic. But without side channel its hard to tell if someone is friendly or not. On the lingor server we play mostly, there is Side enabled and we had alot of friendly player interractions. Just 3 days ago, while we where alone on the server at night time someone joined and after 30 minutes he told us where is at and asked if we could help him. We went there and gave him a blood bag and even had a nice talk with that guy. But in Chernarus isnt this way anymore plus we mostly opperate around "hostile" areas like NWAF and such. First we tried to avoid others, if we saw someone we let them pass and waited till they where gone. But we got to often shot that way, because they saw us in the tree´s or for some other random reasons and started firing on us. We learned our lesson: If we dont shoot first, they do. Thats DayZ. I Still miss the side chat.

I was gettin tired of gettin shot by friendlies, ghosters and what else. Just Yesterday at the southern barracks of the NWAF, when i got into the barracks I was alone, after takin some stuff out of the second room I was heading back to the floor of the barack just to get shot by a server hopper that had just logged in at this very barrack. The worst thing about this game is the community, so basicly I´ll kill everyone on sight. I dont even care anymore if they are unarmed or not because it allready has happened to me, that we let pass someone and just about 3 minutes later we got shot by this "Friendly" that has found a gun somewhere. Btw, the Server hoppers name is "Bolt" he is often at the server DE 274. (We where alone before this guy joined, that how I know.) Funny thing is I still have right now 13k Humanity.

maybe you guys should stop alt+f4 in a firefight, then you would have something to do again.

shitty story.

I dont get why its so hard to fix the goddamn artifacts. Just remove those dead bodies and maybe even the wirefence. They have no value to the game experience itself. Just remove those dead bodies and we all can play again like we where used to.
