Locking servers is at the Admins discretion. I know that we would start accepting requests to join our server and start logging information for all people we dont personally know so that we have a log of who is playing so when shit starts going haywire with scripts we know where to start looking. Again, your points are moot if you stop thinking about yourself for a second and think about how those of us who are actually willing to put money into playing this game feel. You have absolutely no point that cannot be overcome, why don't you start thinking about other solutions if you dont like mine. Its easy to discredit someone else without having anything to show for it as an alternative.

Clans will have some work if they want people on their server, I know we will. But I guarantee clans would rather sift through applications and build a healthy fun server than the current situation. Plus we are only talking about long enough for either BI to do something about Arma2 or the DayZ standalone release which probably wont support the current hive anyways so we are all starting over when that comes out.

First of all, whats your point? I could care less what you claim to do or know. Second of all if you have access to a clan server why do you care? Are you server hoping? Are you running scripts yourself? Please keep replying, its just bumping the thread so the rest of the community can see it. Thanks!

I hope to see this happen, just temporarily. Once the standalone is out and Rocket has control then this would never be needed.

You are correct, but if all servers could be locked its going to be fairly hard to server hop as you suggest so that point is moot. Players can still come here and submit tickets for servers and admins who abuse their privileges, your second point is moot. If you don't pay to rent or own a server you really dont have a leg to stand on in this conversation. Im sorry but your playing for free, Im not.

Those of you who think this idea is horrible need to understand more and more server admin/owners are becoming less and less interested in renewing server costs. If you think we will continue to provide servers for you to play on while they are destroyed by script kiddies you really have another thing coming. Think about that for a second before you say its such a bad idea.

Agree 100%

In the words of the late and great Freddie Mercury "Another one Bites the Dust"! Great job catching this fool guys!

LOL did he just get teleported to Thunderdom? Was that hacker or something else?

Names can be changed in less than 10 seconds, wont change a thing unfortuantely.

The respawn button is supposed to light up if your legs are broken, have you relogged and checked that?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1756799/ New Post Apocalyptic movie coming out, looks pretty good. Though there are no zombies, it definitely emphasizes on a lot of the social aspects of society we see between players in DayZ.

Look a little harder, releases this month in the US

No bounty awaits you in Green Mountain, just steady loss of your sanity before death

Very good write up until this part. You seem to understand a lot about the Arma2 engine yet fail to really understand it. To say that the DayZ team has no ability to control Anti-Cheat is completely false. There are options that can be written and ran server side and to be perfectly honest I would be very surprised if Rocket and the DayZ are not already exploring and developing something. So I believe you owe that person you quoted a small apology as there was nothing wrong with what they said. Now had they come in saying things like "Rocket and the DayZ team charged me for a hack infested product and will never fix the problem" then you might have a point.

DayZ will become standalone which means Rocket can write and have control over anti-cheat

Which is why you will never know if its a real girl or not

The problem is that DayZ is a mod and not a game /thread

I could care less about getting items restored, I just want these fools caught and globally banned.

I have a suggestion to help combat user who run scripts and cheats, but it wont do any good if its public knowledge beforehand. How can I go about contacting someone on the DayZ team? Thanks!

Ya i know better than to try and send him a PM hahaha.

While I appreciate your effort, youve basically just doomed new players. I remember when I first started playing DayZ and watched a video where a guy suggested hitting Balota and the airfield because it was generally "less traveled". Ya fat chance, I was getting KoSed left and right because thats what EVERYONE was doing and so where the bandits most likely as a result of that video.

They need to just bring back the Markov when you spawn so newbies have a fighting chance. I dont really see how removing it has helped spawn killing other than respawns killing eachother. Now your just out there with your ass in the breeze for anyone alive longer than 20 minutes.

Either way people and players are very unforgiving. If the cheaters destroy the player base before the standalone it could very well be a contributing factor to how it succeeds. Further more there is also the War Z on the horizon which could end up taking players away. They are boasting the same features as DayZ on their own engine which could eliminate the hacking problems and push the game ahead of DayZ.
