At the risk of going off topic, EvE isn't quite like that in that you skill up in real-time, that is if you want to get instant rich in-game you can buy 'Plex' from the publisher, which is a physical item representing 30-days of subscription. you can then sell this for in-game currency on the market to other players. However, even tho that will take care of the financial side, a ship + Fit that take 200+ days to train for still take 200+ days regardless. their is no "super weapon" you can get by pulling out "Mommies credit card" like many games that cater to "rich kids" with micro transactions that are a Pay-to-win situation. What gets expensive is Multi-boxing which requires multiple paid accounts. As of writing this im up to 5 personally :P each costing about 15$/month

The very first time I played dayZ (Back in the days of spawning with mackerov) it was night and I run right to the church in cherno following the gunfire thinking this was a PvE.. err.. PvZ (Players Vs. Zombies) game. They instead shot me and left me to the zed, and I decided right then to make my beans on the backs of any sucker I cross paths with!

Back before Christmas My clan and I used to patrol the coast with 2 hueys and NVGs picking off any poor sucker we find with MG burst.....

Pro tip: if you have trouble with finances never ever Start playing eve online. ****'s addictive and keeps getting more expensive...

I'm just starting to play DayZ again, but back in the prime of the mod (official servers) I routinely found 10+ tent camps. General procedure was to take the vehicle with largest capacity and everything I could load it with. I also remember the no-so-long-ago days of MASSIVE camps "Off the grid" well outside them map. good times :)

I like to use lots and lots of commas; like this, this, and this!

Spawn killers need love too.

Can't seem to find any these days. I have tried some of the private-Hives and have no problem with them (existing) but really cant be bothered to have different mods/versions depending which server I join, DB wipes, etc. Also hows the Hacking these days? I quit dayZ back aronud Christmas due to Hacking being out-of-control

I guess we'll just have to wait and see what the "Initial release to the public" price for the SA ends up being. sorry for being out of the loop there.

I can appreciate your feelings, but let me ask you this- Have you ever Admin'd a server (with substantial traffic) on a game/system that is very restrictive or has poor tools? Do you even realize what a dedicated server capable of running games like this with 50+ players costs a month? It's an imperfect system and hackers (and people who buy hacks) will always find ways around automated detections. It is an Imperfect system but ultimately I have 2 Main points on this- 1. Admins need freedom to decide the "standard" of proof for them selves, and use 3rd party tools. and 2. Servers are FREAKIN EXPENSIVE. if a individual or community are putting up their IRL money to provide YOU a place to play either accept that its "Their playground, their rule" or vote with your feet and play a different server. I have Nor problems with admins that allow "Donator" starting load outs etc. I would, tbqh Be more inclined to donate 50$ of my money to a server that's gona let me re-spawn with an AK-47, tent, and some basic supplies then one that's gona put my username in the MOTD. Couldn't agree more. I absolutely hate when a developer/publisher delivers a Piece of broken **** game and then later says "Its the first in the series and was more a test of concept" I paid full retail price I expect Fully finished content, Stable and consistent game mechanics and a worthwhile and enjoyable experience. I WILL NOT PAY FULL PRICE TO TEST A GAME FOR SOME PUBLISHER. That's a lame excuse developers and publishers use for rushing out un-finished content to meet stupid deadlines or take advantage of Holiday/summer break sales opportunities. The only possible way I would consider this is if they did like what Minecraft did. It started as a simple "alpha" with very few features but workable (and was free at the time) and as they have improved it they started charging and later increasing the price. IE "Buy it now and play it in its constantly being patched and re-patched alpha state for 75% off and get to keep it even when it goes to final release" thereby offering the customer a chance to try features and give feedback, but not screw them with a broken game they paid 50$ for and you have no incentive to really fix now.

Some Add-on Maps (Islands) also don't have the proper editing work done on the physical map creation its self for AI pathing with buildings and roads. I however do not think that would be your specific problem. Also when setting up a Private-Have server (which is effectively what your doing (Be it over LAN in your case but still) I had to remove the required Version parameter to allow "any version" after making edits to the DB stuff and Loot table. this may be similar to your issue but im not sure. I haven't messed with any DayZ editing since before Christmas and their have been numerous changes since them im sure, so I cant really help you much beyond that. It still sound to me like one end or the other is failing to load all files/keys. Try looking through the server process or logs.

TY guys i'll give those a try. Im a US player but the French and German hosted servers are normally fine for me. That's good to hear. So even the legit AS50 is a thing of the past (the one with the normal scope)? I now they actually spawned in heli crashs at one point. I never had a problem with them TBH it was just the Hacked in one from Arrowhead that had thermal sites that was a problem.

Additional Files/textures/sounds must be called in the description.ext file of the mission. If your mission (DayZ.MapName) is a PBO you will need to Un-pack it (Using a tool like Arma UnPBO) and edit the .ext file to include additional mod files. and yes format DOES matter. read the scripting wiki. you will also need to make sure that Mods are added in a certain order. Eg. if mod B requires Mod A then Mod A must be called/run first.

Id Like any populated "Oficial" server. last time I looked I could hardly find any that kept more then 15 on for any amount of time. Sadly the Massive hacker issues over the winter drove the bulk of Players to Private hives where 3rd party anti hacks and Backups could be used.

I really need say nothing more then what his own Youtube videos show: Latest Video: His channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/evansaidhi Edit; Banned him from our servers for Teleporting Edit 2: I can provide GUID to DayZ staff if requested

He does use a bypass. After this incident i throughouly checked the logs- There is no way i could have detected this as an admin had he not been foolish enough to post the video. He also uses gear spawning hacks, and has teleported to people and killed them, And i Strongly (tho cant prove it) believe he used some kind of hack which put everyone on the server way up in the sky then dropped them to their deaths.

new video. hes hacking on OUR server.

I have multiple people complaining to me that he Teled and killed them (IIRC about 10 in the span of an hour) on OUR server which is conected to the hive and public/BE enabeled. those complaints normally would simply result in a thorough investigation of logs, However combined with the evidence that He already has accounts global banned (he admits it even in this thread, Plus a YT channel where he has ***ing vids, PLUS a stream account where he has Hack videos. imho all thogether that's sufficient. obviously someone who has hacks, uses them, and knows how to use them. After banning this individual we had no further problem with tele-kills or unexplainable insta-kills

If he wasnt hacking legit servers to begin with why does he have a banned copy? Also as i said - This is combined with multiple complaints that he teled and killed people. I take the issuing of bans very seriously and do not arbitrarily kick or ban people for single complaints. In this case; I had numerous complaints against someone who has demonstrated that they use hacks and have been banned in the past for using them. Odly enough after the ban there were no further issues... The main pruose of this thread, At any rate- is to lay out my evidence and reasoning for the ban before the DayZ staff in event of appeal- which i fully expected based on this sort of behavior. Quite frankly it's not my problem if he goes elsewhere and continues to do this - That said I work hard as an admin on my clan's servers to ensure this sort of behavior is controlled there to the best of my abilities.

I like the idea. It may push admins of some servers to more agressivly persue hackers/scripters and keep them off their servers.

I believe 10+ complaints in one day that you teled and killed them is sufficient Especially when combined with the fact that you have multiple accounts BANNED FOR HACKS. You have a YT and stream dedicated to HACKING. Please Dayz Staff correct me if you don't think that all put together is sufficient.
