Id tend to believe a Company like battleye more often then I would believe a 13 year old claiming they never used hacks.

When you have various tents full of backups waiting for you when you respawn.

AS50 is the best Ive used. Only problem with it is I find it really hard to get ammunition for it, meaning I have to carry around another primary in my pack at all times. Starting to think anyone who is running to cherno/elektro and sniping for any extended period of time has to be duping or scripting in the ammo, because I recently dropped the AS50 due to not having the ammo for too long.

I have more luck on low population servers. Larger server tend to attract hackers. Ive noticed one thing about hackers in this game that attracts them is this game isn't really for them, they want a game that is fast paced PvP, so they hack gear and go straight into the PvP and don't want anything to do with the Survival part of the game. Thats not every hacker, but from what Ive seen its a large proportion of them. Because they want PvP straight up, they go for servers that are almost full. It doesn't. I found it frustrating for a while as well. But Im no expert at this game so I use the fresh start as a chance to learn the game a bit better. If I don't feel like working through the early game again, I have a few tents on various servers to head straight to so I can get geared up quickly again.

hahaha

Im a little surprised this is still going on at such a large scale. Honestly, I thought they would get bored with doing it.

SadPanda, Ive heard rumors that you are running for biggest fanboi, can you confirm or deny these rumors?

Happened twice to me. In both cases I logged out underneath a tree. I don't know if thats relevant, but as practice to avoid the situation I don't log out with anything above my head. I think this might be causing the problem.

Same one I use. Seems quite accurate.

Maybe. They might be doing something, I haven't been thunderdomed for two days. But its too early to say. It feels like there are less hacks around tbh.

There was talk quoting Rocket speaking of how it was possible to run 200 player servers. If so, my first concern is map size. Also I think they need to work on the spawn locations. Its going to be really hard to head North if duping is fixed. Currently there is already to much congestion on Cherno/Elektro and their surrounding areas. These kinds of cities that have huge loot spawns should be the furthest away from spawn to give incentive for players to move away from there as the current map setup is pretty much a head to cherno/elektro and play a quick deathmatch game.

Ive spawned on the island near Otmel on one occasion. Not sure if intended or not.

As a player who plays in a clan from time to time, we like to have enough vehicles that on some nights (usually weekends, aka Friday/Saturday night) we can do some night time raids etc. Problem is, all our vehicles eventually get stolen. In order to actually have enough vehicles for the nights we wanna have a bit of fun we have to constantly steal vehicles, whether they be from other players camps or their spawn points or whatever. Because we usually roll these night time raids with at least 6 people we usually need at least 3 vehicles. ATVs are really good, but guaranteed if we only take 3 ATVs there will be nothing left of them by the weekend. So we steal as many as we can and hide them so we have any chance of doing what we want to do. We are vehicle hoarders because they are constantly stolen or destroyed on site. If people left them alone, we wouldn't need to take more than our share.

Wouldn't I become a Zombie after being killed by one?

Check out DayZ myth busters. The guy jumps from the top of a tall building and because he landed on an "object" he walks away from it.

I once had a fresh spawn in Stary sobor. I assumed it was hackers but I wasn't sure. Thankfully, the town was completely engulfed in snipers fml.

Two is fine. From my small experience in the game though, Ive found having a sniper, Machine gunner, assualt player and a "zombie dealer with" player really good. Machine gunner can lay down suppressive fire, Zombie dealer can deal with the aggro (and deal with it before it happens if he has a silenced weapon) and the assualt player can push up and deal with closer ranges. The "Zombie dealer with" should babysit the sniper. I find Snipers in this game way too strong though. Seriously two of these in a squad can be a real nightmare. Depending on how many players you have and how they are kitted out just provides some limitations on what you should and shouldn't do.

Im a run on sight guy. Avoid players. I have a clan I run with. Don't like to grief players on my own. But when running with the clan its shoot on sight.

Looks like battleEye is moving in. Ive been getting notifications that "they are aware of the current problems that have come and are working on it". Thank god. If they fix duping we might actually be able to give better input as Alpha testers.

Personally I think clothing should be balanced and there should be more options. IE Ghillie gives the advantage of being harder to see, why not give it a negative bonus like a small movement speed drop.

Black SUV is not in DayZ, only in ARMA 2. If you see one its hacked into the game. Sucks though, Id really love a black SUV or a Humvee.

I don't believe Zombies would ever exist lol. I just would like the option to become one in game if bitten.

Due to having many girlfriends who turned out to be hoes, I became very resistant to infection and it took the weakening of my body from a Zombie attack to fully turn me. Now I wants your survivor brains.

I used to think the same thing about NVG's, but after playing around with my settings I find they aren't a massive advantage.

I believe it depends on the server settings. I recently checked a map and realised that it was marking my position on it, with footprints labelled "man", but it doesn't seem to be like that on every server.
