you killed someone in the cherno/elektro deathmatch and you care? dafuq

you should not have mentioned that place.. this thread is now cursed

I have been hanging around the NE airfield for a few days now and no one ever comes up here.. it seems people are so obsessed with the major cities that other areas of chernarus become ghost towns What incentive is there to go anywhere else if you can quickly gear up and shoot people in cherno/elektro? besides hoarding gear/vehicles ofc The standalone needs to scatter the best loot around the map otherwise there is no point in having a big map imo does anyone else live out in the sticks or am I just retarded?

Just shoot anyone that moves and you won't have a problem

I always play on high pop servers (at least 40/50) to increase the chance of coming across someone to shoot :D but NE airfield and berizino seem to always be empty.. methinks I have to relocate to Stary

This. Snipers use it to slow the movement of their targets. Someone vaulting is easy to hit.

If it had a suppressor it would be OP :D

This is incorrect there are games that have practically no hackers.. EVE online for example, I have never seen a hacker in that game in over 2 years of playing it, people don't even bother because they will be caught by logs, lose their characters and sub money. In a game that requires you to invest time and effort in persistant gameplay, paying a subscription is the only effective way to protect the players investment. DayZ standalone won't get a subscription based model and will always have problems with hackers. All this F2P/cheap key crap means you get inundated by casual hacking kids.

no you will not get banned disconnecting at any time is not against any rules it is considered bad form though if you are avoiding a legit fight

had a 12 year old kid teleport behind me when I was in the middle of nowhere sitting in a tree.. he said "hey bandit you friendly?" in a squeaky voice (he had the hero skin lol) I knew he had to be a hacker and probably had god mode on so I just ran away checking behind me for about a kilometer.. he didn't follow. then he teleported right behind me again and said the same shit "hey bandit you friendly?" I facepalmed and disconnected. you can only really tell if they do it twice otherwise it might just be a coincidence that they were traveling through the same place or spotted part of you not covered by a tree.. unlikely but possible. I have come across and killed a few people in very remote places.. they probably thought I was a teleporting hacker they got brutally murdered by my m14 :D

m14 aim and DMR both use same ammo both are almost a one shot kill against players (taking high damage makes you go unconscious) use m14 when traveling for close to medium range and DMR if you see someone at a distance never shoot zombies

DMR, heli crash site M14 AIM, NE airfield control tower 88 players got their primary from spawns 117 got their primary through other means definitely alot more hacked in weapons that will not be shown by this poll that end up in tents and on dead bodies atm it seems like there is a shady russian arms dealer on every corner of chernarus just handing out guns

and my M14!

I found an M14 AIM at airfield but I kind of wish I hadn't.. now when I die, I will spend hours trying to find it again, lesser weapons seem useless by comparison

I'm a murderer.. always shoot on sight never underestimate the advantage you have when you get the drop on someone its just how the game is.. I've been nice to new spawns before and they have stolen gear from my backpack and have had people who shouted friendly shoot me in the back If someone looks new (i.e. hatchet/lee enfield/double b shotgun) I will avoid them unless they are heading straight for me if you play legit shooting someone is much easier than finding gear again its kind of sad that only hackers can afford to be nice

basically this.. also don't wear ghillie suits and don't use vehicles (if you can find them) they seem to attract hackers and always be prepared to alt-f4/disconnect when thunderdomed or if lots of players start dying my char has been alive for 14 days now (about 1-5 hours each day) hanging around NE airfield and Krasnostav everything you need up there (including some potiential heli crash spawns) and you still get action from tent dupers and lone wolves heading west

why you still poasting here Thadeum? banned from the game should = banned from the forums imo

well fuck you for trying to take the intellectual high ground, you think you're a shade of grey but you are as black and white as they come.. nothing but a dirty script kiddie cheater you are the reason we can't have nice things

This. I can't believe the amount of people in this thread saying they don't mind hackers.. there is no such thing as a "good hacker" anyone that just spawns in gear is getting an AS50, ghillie, M4A1 CCO SD, M9SD, NVG etc and having an instant advantage over the legit guy who has spent half an hour finding a winchester and beans. Just because you don't thunderdome dosn't mean you aren't ruining the game for everyone.

didn't read becuase OP is taking the piss

wtf..you are just condoning hacks if you use that gear why don't you just spawn it in yourself then? whats the difference?

QFT also at OP wtf did you think would happen? survivors wouldn't shoot eachother for gear? you need to blame the game design not the players.. there needs to be a greater incentive for helping other random survivors the problem is you can't flag whether someone is random or not and it will be metagamed to shit

yeah its crazy the aussie and nz servers are not worth playing on atm.. its because of our small number of local servers; if you have 50 servers with 10 active hackers, 1 out of 5 get hacked but if you only have 10 servers with 10 active hackers you're screwed

I don't think they are that rare.. seems to me with all the thunderdoming and warping going on there would be alot of players sick of searching for decent gear just to lose it straight away.

hackers/scripters/Battleye = why we can't have nice things
