Anyone figure this out yet?

Bump! This issue needs to be noticed and fixed.

Bump! This problem needs recognition!

Bump! I still can't play this fucking game! Why can't anybody help us?!

Never heard that term used for them before, you have my beans

What in the flying fuck is an infected hunter? Other players? Do other players spawn bear traps when I kill them?

Just happened to stumble upon a bunch of tents on US 101. There were lots of items in there, plenty of hacked ones (rocket launcher, satchel charges, etc.). The tents belonged to the MARAUDER clan. I saw a bunch of players near the tents run into a helicopter and take off. That's when I got to check all the items. I heard them coming back so I logged out. I come back on when there's only one other player, who happened to be an admin. The admin wasn't associated with the clan so I figured I hadn't much to worry about, but a minute later I get sprayed with bullets. Wish I FRAPS'd it all for you guys :P

where did server numero uno go? i had my fucking tent on that server...

They definitely need to patch things. No point in an open alpha if nobody can properly test the game.It's just common sense really.

It has already been announced to use the ArmA 3 engine bro.

1) Better graphics 2) More optimized (less FPS dips, artifacting, crap like that) 3) Ragdoll (duh) 4) Ambient lighting for night time 5) More fluid control 6) More polished gameplay 7) Better driving controls 8) Objects utilize physics when destroyed as opposed to a stiff animation The list goes on...

After trying to farm that Ghillie shit for awhile I gave up. I had really good luck at first but after trying to find a Ghillie suit for the last 5 hours I haven't had any luck. At that point I realized I was wasting my time, but at least I got a bunch of camo suits out of the process. After wearing them for a little while, I'm really starting to like them. First off, they make my zombie-skinned survivor look like a fucking badass. Most players shit their pants when I run at them, firing my M1911 and yelling into my mic. Obviously you're not a grass wookie, but the green pants and shirt offer better camo than nothing. If you plan on sniping, you might want to give up the ALICE backpack for a smaller one. There are only two real downsides. First is that it's a huge let down when you see you aren't getting a Ghillie suit. Second is that the texture is ugly as fucking shit. I've seen better texturework on the PS2. It's sort of obvious they intended to charge for a better model down the line. I simply can't imagine the person who designed the texture to have taken a look at it, think "Look's good to me!", and consider it done.

It's not that bad. You just simply can't play in the most populated servers. Learn to hit ALT+F4 really quick when you get teleported, so worst case scenario is that you have to run back to wherever you wanted to go. It sucks but at least you get to keep your stuff. Hackers that globally nuke servers are the sickest motherfuckers, and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it when it happens. Thankfully in my last 30 Day Z hours, it hasn't happened once. Oh yea, and don't try to hoard shit. You are wasting you time in that regard. Get some basic high-end gear and PvP. You're setting yourself up for disappointment if you think it's a good idea to try to build an armory at this point.

My rules for tent-building.... 1) Never build more than one in the same spot. 2) Never build within 300m of a major town, island, landmark, or edge of map 3) Never build on consistently populated servers (Should be an obvious one. Keep an eye out for servers that have low pop-cap and <10 players on average.) 4) PERSONAL USE ONLY I've had the same tents for a couple months, they've never been touched. EDIT: One thing I forgot to add is there are plenty of great hiding spots that aren't around the edges of the map. There's a lot of miscellaneous hills and forests that people ordinarily would never need to go through. People don't seem to pay attention to tents inland as much either, so if you can hide your tent between some trees in a non-traffic area, you should be good.

I've seen DMRs at Balota, which is right on the coast. it certainly takes luck to find though. you may as well find a better sniper beforehand.

ewww double post sorry.

I haven't had such luck to find a ghillie suit by accident, but its unoften I scout houses unless I need food. I'm at Stary now, ill let you guys know how it goes.

I've spent plenty of time playing the game without going crazy over high-end gear. The simple fact of the matter is that if you want a Ghillie suit, it'll take a very long time to find unless you seek it out specifically. The only time I've come across Ghillie-suits without wasting my time on it is off the dead bodies of hackers. And that's no fun. Since I have recently acquired night-vision goggles, I'll try venturing out to some towns. Stary Sobor is a pretty scary place I have to admit. Even on low-pop servers, that place is a battleground.

Yea, I'm in dire need of this fix too. I play this game on 2 separate PCs I own and sitting around Balota just gives me painful artifacting on both systems after awhile. No other game I own comes even close to driving my GPU's temps as high as this one. I can even turn it to low settings and my cards will just shoot up to 90+ C.

And I can't highlight it to pick it back up? Is it gone forever?

Fair thy well!

I can see it but I've tried approaching the weapon from every angle in every stance and I just cant seem to get it selected. I tried dropping a smoke grenade next to it and just like the AS50 - it is also unselectable.

The only way I could possibly imagine that you don't see a hacker is if you play pussy-style and stick to low-pop servers so you can accumulate loot and PvE. As for high-pop servers, almost every single one I joined in the last few days ended up with me having to Alt+F4 to avoid being mowed down after everyone in the server was mass teleported to the center of Cherno. There have been other times that hackers took away my weapons. I consistently PvP so I get to see hackers on on a more consistent and personal basis. I've seen atleast half a dozen ghillie-suit wearers in the last couple days at the Balota airfields. I've also seen a hacker teleport directly in behind me in effort to kill me (he was also in a ghillie), but I managed to alt+F4 out before he killed me. It's obvious that a bunch of people are using ESP hacks as well (which is frustrating). It's no fun being killed through walls...

They can take their time trying to figure out how to bust hackers for other things, but when it comes to the whole 'teleport the entire server to a location and slaughter them' ordeal, I have no patience. They need to find a way to block teleporting altogether. Lock a player's X/Y/Z coordinates with the server's or something. I've been teleported (and more frustratingly had my weapons swapped) by hackers half a dozen times today. It's getting really old. How do others feel about the mass teleporting hack?
