    Berezino Hospital Raid

    The typical in this game. Find a morphine and then break your leg immediately after. Never have I EVER found one and not broken my leg within like 5 minutes.

    Im not going to be the good guy anymore

    Hell, it's not even about bandits. Bandits don't bother me. I sneak up on players 99% of the time with accuracy. But 99% of the time bugs end up getting me killed instead even after I get the first shots off, accurately. It's damn annoying and I'm honestly getting tired of not being able to defend myself or be a bandit myself when all I do is get killed anyway after placing 6-7 rounds in someone or head shots with a revolver, or several hits with an M16 for example. I'll be quite honest. Been playing for about a week and I've successfully killed ONE player. Nearly all my play time has been out in the wilderness, hitting good weapon spawns at different locations, stalking players, getting right up on them without them knowing, etc. Never had an issue. I get in and out without ever been seen. The one player I've killed came up some steps, scared me and I fired. He was unarmed. Then after I bandaged his bleeding body he disconnected. Whoops. It's not me. This game just loves to screw me.

    Impossible to Report Hackers

    dude battleye is banning people left and right atm' date=' you just dont see it. you can go to some hacking forum and read their forum, a lot has been banned for using the public bypass that was released recently and many more still continue to try. the consensus is that battleye does delayed bans now and if you hack using the bypass that just went pub expect a ban less than 48hrs. battleye just pissed off a lot of people that used the public bypass and this ddos is probably their way of getting revenge. battleye is almost like blizzard's warden now, instead of straight banning, they flag accounts instead. this creates tremendous confusions about whether the bypass is legit hence it will always still catch people brave enough to try it. if a hack status is detected most will stop using it outright. if a hack is "unknown" MANY if not MOST will continue to use it and getting flagged. the flag system is way more effective because of the unknown factor and wont give hack maker a chance in time to shut down the hack in time unless the hack maker is REALLY REALLY skilled like Helios, Medic and the "buddy" guys that makes bots. they are always ahead of the system.... these guys literally can put their programs and profit from it all the while being the target of punkbuster, battleye and warden and STILL not get caught..... [/quote'] Hacks aren't the only reason people need to be reported. I'm just thankful this game doesn't use Punkbuster. That pile of crap has been a joke since day one and has never served any purpose whatsoever other than to kick legit players left and right for ridiculous reasons.
  4. cheat or not its a nice ass base' date=' would like to see rocket implement more "tools" and "mats" require to set up a nice base like this [/quote'] While I VERY much agree, it would need to be very difficult to maintain over time and have strict limits on things like size, distance from towns, etc. Otherwise the map would just get cluttered with the crap. SWG learned that lesson by not implementing limits nor enforcing them. And again, I agree with this idea. That facet of SWG alone (and crafting) to this day makes it in the top 5 MMOs ever made, even with it's negative aspects. Nothing has topped it, nor even touched it. This game could do great things with what you just suggested.

    Pending Update: Build 1.7.2

    Bear traps? Really? If that happens then I am not playing anymore. It's going to be nothing but a bear trap spam city everywhere worth going. No thanks. They better be DAMN hard to come by or you can kiss my participation in this game bye bye. You fix infected breaking your legs by breathing on you but add a feature that auto breaks legs making your character useless. Not the best of moves. Broken legs makes DayZ a broken game as is currently.
  6. As I've figured, there are still issues. Servers are FUBAR. The main server is FUBAR. Not been able to play for more than 5 minutes without issues all day, since very early this morning.
  7. Not to be a downer, but the character server is still not working.
  8. Part of this is pasted from another thread that I replied to: *** A note on the teleporting player. I believe I was on the same server as the person that reported a player doing the same recently (US 52 or so?). A guy spawned on me inside of a barn today (the one with the 2 stairs going up on both sides). I walked down the stair, turned around and there he was laying on the same exact platform I had just stepped off of. Then he shot me with an Einfeld. Where there goes the M1100 (sp?) and the Revolver + large pack etc that I worked really hard to find. What really struck me as odd is that about 5 minutes prior I heard a shot that scared me. I thought maybe I misfired my gun. Did a few circles around that bar and went back in and was in there for another 10 minutes or so waiting on a friend. Prior to going back in, the gunshot had brought a few zombies around. When I walked back in the barn (after hearing LOTS and LOTS of zombies making noises) they were all huddled up in one spot (about the same spot where the guy was laying). There must have been 12 of them. I killed all of them. Then stood there for a while. Now, the side I'm on is opposite where these zombies were. I walk down, turn around, and get nailed by the guy laying where I was JUST standing, opposite the zombies. Really weird occurrence. I've died like 12 times in this game so far and not once have I been able to kill another player? Why? Hackers or general bugs. Ie., going prone, firing at someone's head and watching the bullet hit the pavement. That sort of thing. Or hacks like the one above. Trust me, I've tried to kill players and up until this hacker, I've ALWAYS gotten the drop on them. Always. And I've lost every time to stupid bugs or hackers. Another player I shot 6-7 times in the back at point blank with an AK. He was fine and dandy. It said he died. Nope. I could hear him moving a short time later (I ran around the corner because I was out of ammo at that point). Ok. Then it says he dies 3 more times. WTF? I end up dying by climbing the roof above him and getting hit through a window by 2 (count them - 2!) shots. Seriously? Zombies: - Clipping through, walking through walls and attacking. - Clipping through floors, walking UNDER buildings and attacking from below the floor. Wow. This is the kind of nonsense I've come to expect in this horrid Arma 2 engine. It's not DayZ. It's Arma itself. This is not my idea of fun. I've lost gear I worked really hard for time upon time to absolute nonsense. Alpha or not, these bugs are NOT going to get fixed. Why? That would require fixing Arma 2's engine, not DayZ. I'm fine with losing gear and getting killed and making mistakes and not getting the drop on someone and being killed and all of these things. The issue here is not even DayZ bugs. Like I said, these are generally Arma engine bugs and I really don't see how Rocket is going to fix these issues.

    Looking for a group

    No results for any of those steam accounts in search. Add me though: Steam ID = chrismgtis
  10. Anyone near Berezino that can offer morphine? I got hit by a zombie from about 100 feet away that crippled me due to server lag. I've been getting killed because of bugs and hackers non stop and really don't want to start over yet again because of another issue. Would really appreciate it. Steam ID: chrismgtis

    A Recent Hack/Other Issues

    Now I just died by a zombie hitting me from 100 ft away, after agroing from 100 feet away. This game is so absolutely broken that it's unplayable. Just like the AI in MP Arma 2.
  12. Just happened to me. Some dude spawned on me inside of a barn (the one with the 2 stairs going up on both sides). I walked down the stair, turned around and there he was laying on the same exact platform I had just stepped off of. Then he shot me. I've died like 12 times in this game so far and not once have I been able to kill another player? Why? Hackers or general bugs. Ie., going prone, firing at someone's head and watching the bullet hit the pavement. That sort of thing. Or hacks like the one above. It's ridiculous.

  13. To keep it short, I'm looking for people to play with. Server doesn't matter. You can reach me on Steam ID: chrismgtis I've been soloing and would like to play with others just to have someone else to play with and to watch each others back. So far I've been very successful at stalking players and getting the drop on them. Even with a good bit of experience in Arma 2, I've had a lot of issues actually killing players. Why? Bugs. For example the shooting while prone bug causing the bullet to hit the ground or putting a full clip in a player at point blank and not phasing him, etc. I seem to have pretty horrid luck actually getting the kill even when I always get the drop on the other person and they don't know I'm there. So a second person would help to alleviate that issue. :)
  14. You'll say it's "fine" when you get torn apart by a zombie that hit you threw a wall, or from above you on the floor above your head, or you break a leg going down the stairs and then get torn apart by a zombie that was randomly up the stairs, or several zombies walk through a wall (has happened to be countless times) then sprint at you inside of a building and tear you to shreds. Yea, that's not fun. Not one bit. I literally, absolutely, die 95% of the time in DayZ because of bugs. Not DayZ bugs for the most part. Arma 2 engine bugs more than anything I think. Bugs that Rocket likely will never fix unless the engine itself is fixed.
  15. Add me on steam ID: chrismgtis Goes for anyone in the thread.
  16. If you "found" "thermal" vision goggles then I'm AFAIK pretty sure that you found a hacked item.
