Its going to really suck when they add diabetes to the game.

This is not an easy game and thats where some of its charm comes from. Sometimes I try to think of it like any other FPS but you life lasts hours/days instead of minutes.

I think the private hive serves a purpose now but not sure if it will after the full release.

It's been better for me over the past couple weeks, last thing that killed me was a insta death on login and I think that's a bug not a hack.

You got my beans, not for the tip (already knew it) but for not being one of those people who quit and then make a post about why you quit.

When you think about it this game mechanic was added to replace the gut feeling you get when you meet someone. Looking at someone in real life you get a feeling for what type of person they are by looking at they body language, clothing and the person them self to address their threat level. It would be cool if a game to give you all of that but currently they can not so I think its a great way to communicate this to you. It would be a bit nicer if they could make it more subtle. So why keep it through death, well in real life when you die you die and cant come back. In this game you can and it is very likely you will go back to playing how you did in your previous life so for that reason I think they should persist the bandit stats through death.

Software development is not always linear. The person working on fix A might not be the same person that is working on new feature B.

I have seen less hackers over the past couple of weeks.

Hey you darn kids, get off my lawn! :)

I don't even know the key you press to text chat in game, lol

I might pop in and chat with you guys, I am 34 and also an in IT

Its cool your going, I am going to stick with DayZ for now. We will see ya when you come back.

Yes

Whats the normal time you play at and whats your play style?

Very true, and a bit sad that things are that way now.

The more people you have killed even in self defense makes you more dangerous. Bandits are in the game to warn you how dangerous someone could be.

Like this guy

I switch to the Steam browser (Shift + Tab) while holding W and the switch back and run stays on. You have to be running the game in Steam for this to work.

This topic has not had a post in 5 minutes, is it dead?

Hackers are also part of the experiment, just wish it was a part that added more value.

You guys were kinda hard on this guy. I believe him because most of us have been in situations with hackers when a quick disconnect will save your guy and gear.

I ran into this dog today, I am pretty sure it was a hacker I know the sever had hackers on it. But It was kinda cool to see anyways. No I did not kill the guy in the start of the video, he was dead before I got there.

I know the game has issues that make hacking pretty easy and with code changes they can be reduced however it might be a little bit of time for those changes. What can we do as a community to make this better. We know there are more honest players than people scripting and maybe we could come up with a way to make this better on our own. So what tools do we have or what actions can we take to make this problem better? Think creative, think out of the box.

Counter Strike does come out today, maybe that will help too.

I did spend a couple hours with some "honest" hackers (well they did not do any thing bad when I was with them) and they seemed to know when hackers came on to the server. Anyone on how they could tell?
