This is probably one of the most highly suggested topics in the forums. From what I understand, Rocket is aware of the frustration of such an unforgiving miss-click and is working on your exact suggestion. Personally though, I think that if Rocket does add a confirmation window, it'll ruin DayZ's unforgiving nature of: "too bad fuck you". DayZ is about making mistakes and learning from them. It's a good life lesson really. :)

YOU LOSE, GOOD DAY SIR!

Any other suggestions? Bumping for Rocket to see.

You really think hackers haven't figured out a way to mask the server from logging their inputs? Why do you think BattleEye fails so hard? LOL.

BAN HAMMERRRR

I don't really give a shit what that guy says. Dwarden can go fuck himself. This method worked for me (and everyone I've told) and does not interfere with game files, BattleEye or anything. Even though it's perhaps not an 'official' method, all it does is trick Steam into lunching the beta .exe for Combined Operations directly from your library: allowing the overlay, logging your time in-game, and makes your Steam account appear in-game to other friends. There is nothing illegal about it nor is it breaching any rules. He's just some minimum-wage employee that doesn't know what he's talking about.

To everyone saying: "what's the problem with spawning close to your friends/group"... Let me give you an example: Me and my group of 5 friends are going around player-killing. We let our guard down momentarily and YOU (an independent player) manage to kill one of my group members. Everyone takes cover and waits without another shot fired. 30 seconds later, our fallen comrade respawns back into our group. You kill another two of my group members before getting killed yourself. You respawn in Kamenka while my other 2 friends respawn back into the group and we continue our way to the NW airfield and not a fuck was given. Get the picture?

Just out of pure curiosity, is anything actually being done about these fucking hackers in DayZ?!?! BattleEye is such a joke. I was on Dallas 47 yesterday and sniped some asshole with 5 confirmed hits from my .50 cal M107 (it should only take 1 shot to kill a player). He looked around momentarily to see where the shots were coming from, locked on me, and killed me almost instantly with only 2 or 3 shots from his M4A1 at a range of ~332 meters. He never died afterwards (indicating that it wasn't lag issues). I respawned on the same server in Cap Golova and started running back to Chernogorsk only to find a huge mushroom cloud and all of the buildings destroyed in Prigorodky. Now today I was playing on Atlanta 80 and some hacker flew over Chernogorsk in some twin-turbine carpet bomber. Luckily I managed to ALT+F4 before the fucker bombed the shit out of me. So uhhhhh... I ask again: is anything being done about this?!?! Side note: only ALT+F4 to avoid death from a hacker, never in legit PVP or avoiding death from zombies. Oh yeah, and why the fuck do I get kicked for pressing 'm' and going to 'server controls' to vote-kick a player? I got auto-kicked with some BattleEye message immediately after clicking 'server controls'. Someone wanna explain that shit? I really do love DayZ. I can stomach the glitches and bugs (since it's Alpha afterall). But, I honestly have no patience for hackers. /rant

Dunno. I just gave you a thumbs up though and dropped you a comment. :D

Yes, most people are dumb. That's why I love the gaming community of DayZ because only the smart ones are able to successfully install it and join the game. It's like natural selection in biology... The weak ones die off and the dominant species prevail.

LOL what a dcer. Did you ever manage to get a bandage though?

This thread is actually in the appropriate section. Thanks for pretending to act like a moderator but gtfo.

Since when do survivors = noobs. And bandits = have good loot? The terms survivor/bandit refer to a player's humanity (not the rarity of one's loot). And bandits are no longer a feature of DayZ anyways. :P Pointless argument is pointless. LOL.

No, because the 'cooldown' would be saved on the central servers. Just like if you log-out while you're in shock, you will still pass out for 8 minutes if you rejoin another server.

Obviously. But good luck catching/reporting them since the server doesn't say who kills a player.

And make their webcam automatically turn on too!!! That would be awesome. Privacy invasion? HA!

I agree. It's bullshit. They need to relocate the debug plain into the middle of the ocean where no one can shoot you while you're loading.

He's implying that he's not a bandit or else he would've said he's looking for survivors to kill.

Yes but the hilarity is that he's looking for bandits to kill yet doesn't think he's a bandit for doing so. Also, bandit morphing is removed... So how is gonna differentiate? :P

BLACKLIST EM!

>looks for bandits >wants to kill people >doesn't think he is a bandit SWAG

Just setup your video camera aimed at your computer screen. That's how the professionals do it, don't cha know?

How exactly does it hurt your eyes? Do you need a foam helmet too?

There is no reason for a server host to lock a server... EVER. It's 100% against the rules and it'll most likely be blacklisted if not given a stern warning.

Time for a blacklisting, Rocket. Sorry about the loss of your home server. :(
