GeordieMarv replied to pingu (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Unfortunately yes you can play again. I wish you couldn't though, it's people like you who have almost destroyed this mod. -
What is the worst thing you've ever said to a hacker?
GeordieMarv replied to nicraM's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Couldn't agree more. This thread is also pointless and just encourages more people that have been hacked to make yet another "oh noes, i have been haxxored" thread. Why can't people just give them the attention they deserve, which is fucking none at all. /thread -
First Encounter with a Hacker.
GeordieMarv replied to nubcake211's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Being teleported to the Thunderdome. Unfortunately it certainly will not be your last encounter with a hacker. Just laugh at them and don't let them wind you up. This is exactly the reaction they want. Give them the attention they deserve. Which is absolutely none. :thumbsup: -
The constant discussion about 'hacking'.
GeordieMarv replied to Matthias1987's topic in New Player Discussion
There isn't much to understand really. They get their enjoyment from ruining other peoples enjoyment. It really is that simple...unfortunately for all of us. :( It's nothing to do with Rocket & co. The flaws in the ArmA2 engine are down to the ArmA/ArmA2 team if anyone. And even saying that is unfair to them. I bought ArmA2 3 years ago when it first came out. I also bought ArmA eons ago. What alot of people do not realise is this :- ArmA was made for such a hardcore minority of fps/war sim enthusiasts. It really was a niche game. Because all of the playerbase was so hardcore...they would never in a million years contemplate cheating. Because of this, the ArmA2 engine was designed from the ground up to be so customisable and accessible. It is only now that DayZ has brought ArmA2 to the masses, that this very trusting and open ended game has been so easy for the masses of unscrupulous scripting gimps to cheat in. -
How long do you live in your first lives?
GeordieMarv replied to Lewf's topic in New Player Discussion
My first few games i was unlucky enough to join a night time server, as it was night time where i lived. I recall my first life was about 2 minutes, as i couldn't see. Couldn't work out how to equip my torch...and ended up walking right into zombies. The next few lives after that i didn't fair much better..maybe lasted a minute or two more. After about my 4th life i decided to look for a daytime server and i think i ended up on an American server. Now that i could see, i managed to last about 20 minutes. Not very exciting, and i only lasted this long as i was far far too cautious and crawled everywhere. Now my average life if i'm unlucky enough to die, is anywhere from an hour to a few weeks. -
No problem, glad to help.

You can't be globally banned for using hacked in weapons or items. If the admin of a server want to ban you for using them, i guess it's upto them. You will only get globally banned if your caught hacking in the items/weapons yourself, so dont panic. You could always just dump the hacked in weapons under a bush and they will de-spawn themselves after a short while. That is however upto you.

The constant discussion about 'hacking'.
GeordieMarv replied to Matthias1987's topic in New Player Discussion
Couldn't agree with this more. What can we do about it? Not much! All we can do is wait patiently for the standalone, and hope they have made it much more secure. If people think there will be no hacking what so ever in the standalone, they are being incredibly niave in my opinion. No matter how good your coders are that write the game/anticheat/protection routines, the harsh reality is that somewhere in the world there will be someone that is much better at coding than them. -
Yup. Happened to me last week too. I got my name changed and whoever was trying to control me, kept trying to make me shoot my friends. Just left the server, problem solved.

Week 3 Ivan and Martin arrested. Show them you care
GeordieMarv replied to Mysticales's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Signed! What i find absurd is that it's not as if any of this "map" information won't already be readily available on things like google earth etc etc. And in much more detail. As for any military equipment or vehicles/aircraft they MAY have allegedly photographed...well have the Greek authorities not heard of people like "Janes". I bet most of the hardware Greece may have is also readily available through military books/databases like these :- http://www.amazon.co...47920261&sr=1-1 SHIT ... what have i done. I'm gonna go to jail for 20 yrs!!! The whole situation is laughable for everyone except the 2 poor guys siiting in some Greek jail who are obviously being used as "scapegoats". We can only hope the Greek authorities see SENSE. Free the Bohemia 2. -
Fastest way to quit the game?
GeordieMarv replied to CaptainBigSmoke's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Obvious troll. Hopefully this thread will be locked/deleted soon. -
As has been mentioned, bandits are a part of the game. It would be incredibly dull without the fear of getting killed by a bandit, and personally i wouldn't have it ANY other way. We all want a bit of fun, a sense of 007 secret agent if you will. But these people that befriend others...or even go to the lengths of joining an online clan...just to infiltrate them and cause havoc... i just do not understand. Especially when they have "befriended" these people OUTSIDE OF THE GAME ENVIRONMENT for weeks to gain their trust. I can appreciate they want to be a bad ass bandit, i appreciate they want to have some fun and be ruthless. But as mentioned there are limits to this. Some people not only step over the line...they fail to see the line entirely.

If you got a global ban, no one on here can help you. It's between you and Battleye and that is all. Click the link below and talk to them. http://www.battleye.com/support.html Hope this helps. And good luck. Edit - Ninjad by 2 other people @ exactly the same time. Apologies.

Why not just ban everybody with a hacked gun?!
GeordieMarv replied to SennenT's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
NO. Quite simply because of what these 2 guys have already said. Punishing people for something they have no control over. NO THANK YOU! -
What? So basically you want to make it EASIER to get back to your body and your loot? When you die, your meant to loose your stuff. Being able to just select the "square" you died in kind of defeats the whole point of it being a survival game. You die, but can then quite easily get back to your body by getting a plane to the square where you died? Yes i know you say parachute. But it's not going to take long until people learn how to judge when to bail out. So after people get used to the mechanic they will be back at the exact same place they died at within 5 minutes?? No thanks.

Chernogorsk - the territory of death
GeordieMarv replied to HCSQ Forester's topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Wtf! -
All you've done is make yourself look foolish. Having a go at the guy...telling him to "maybe look at his game menu, before posting!" Maybe you should have a look at the patch notes, before you post and have a go at people.

Yahtzee "Zero Punctuation" reviews Dayz
GeordieMarv replied to Obeisance's topic in DayZ Mod Gallery

GeordieMarv replied to Phantra (DayZ)'s topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
:) is it just a case of connecting? Or do i have to be added to a list or something to be able to join your server? Edit - Nevermind. Saw that i have to ask to be added to your list. I will do this at somepoint in the next hour or so on your forums. I'm already a member of a clan myself, so not looking to join up. Just to play and have a laugh with some of my "own kind" :P -

GeordieMarv replied to Phantra (DayZ)'s topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Well being a Geordie i feel compelled to try this server out. -
Probably server lag/desync. The server is not catching upto you last position. Give it a min or so before you log out...it may help the server catch up to your lastest position. And you have posted this thread 5 times. You need to learn not to SPAM the post button. The forums also suffer from lag!

The original trailer is exactly the same without the cat. And it can be seen on the dayz mod home page. http://dayzmod.com/ I knew this already. I just liked the edited in cat reactions.

Did you know scripters can get you banned?
GeordieMarv replied to aaronivo@gmail.com's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Have to agree. If you cared for the mod & the community in general...report this idiot scripter. Oh no, you prob won't ... cos he's your mate. What was i thinking. Just turn a blind eye to it right? I mean ... what harm is he doing? ...good grief. -

Cool. Thanks Delta. Not that i instantly believed it. But these hackers/scripters have no morals at all. So god knows what they are capable of.
