Hacker spawned you guys into the thunderdome TO FIGHT TO THE DEATH! You happened to find a clan / solo players stash in the debug plains where everyone hides their shit.
This isn't a report the server type deal.. its a wow this server sucks kinda deal. Me and my 4 other buddies were on here and we had 2 camps and a tractor with an atv. Now we were in the process of moving our camps when all the sudden my friend gets instant headshot. In the confusion we all try to find him ( Not me I was at the other camp ). Now as my first friend died me and my other friend were aware they were not legit so my friend left. I tried to scavenge all I could from the camp I was at before switching servers. I was in the process of picking up my tent when I heard a thump. After that thump I heard tons of footsteps, lets just say this guy was playing with portals and found out it would be more fun to try and AXE me for all my gear. Now when your 2km from NW airfield and a dude with a AXE comes up behind you its kinda suspicious how he even got there right? No one could get that far with just an axe. Let alone get to me that quickly. Needless to say as soon as I heard those footsteps I disconnected ( No alt+f4ing here ). My friend then waited 10 mins and got back on to see if he could scavenge our other campsite ( the one I wasnt at ). He was on for about 5 seconds and he heard it. Mortars. Tons! The whole forest area was leveled. He immediately disconnected. We learned that that server needs to be A. Managed better or B. Taken down as it is a front for hackers. One of my buddies died through this and I just think that NOONE should go on that server, please learn from my experience.
Cmon guys.. if your going to hack atleast try to be discrete about it. Script kiddies like this should be banned, but I know of a personal few ( not me I play legit ) who spawn in items that are ingame without anyone noticing.. so if kids are going to hack this is kinda how you can tell.
Are you saying as to for rocket to code an item that displays a message in chat when activated but can be differated? You know how hard that is because of the Arma2 engine? Very. ( Yes I HATE how the Arma2 Engine is so flawed <_< )
Alright so I was thinking about the whole care-bears situation and an idea popped into my mind. What if when you kill your first person your player actually reacts? Like you shoot a man in the head and your character can't stand the sight and bends over in nausea. Some sort of way to tell your character is still human. Of course if you have 5+ bandit kills you don't even flinch when shooting someone, you're a stone-cold killer.
Mabye it could be as a positive spin for being a good guy would be a karma style system aka humanity. The higher the humanity the better the loot possibilities? Therefore people wouldn't be as inclined to be a bandit.
