Rocket works at BIS. Arma 3 is close to being released for public alpha (since last I read 2-3 months ago). I wouldn't be surprised if he's been spending more resources on a stand-alone than on patching this mod. Stand-alone release this year is plausible, but would remain in an alpha testing stage.

You will be banned hard if you pick it up...unless I missed something?

As soon as there's a fix for quick disconnecting on the Arma engine, you can bet your grandma that Rocket will implement it straight away.

"Game is standalone, therefore unbuggy" Lolwut?

PVP will remain, forever. All the complaints in the world won't change that.

I'm not going to take time out to do what you can do in your own time.Read the stickied Rocket threads in this sub-forum

Rocket has a studio supporting him. What the hell is wrong with you people? At least research for 10 minutes before stating fiction as if it was fact. Every day I read posts saying "Rocket should be hired by Bohemia for all the money he's made them" or "Rocket is making this mod by himself".

What?If you stopped and thought for a moment before posting that, you'd remember that Arma engine is a simulation engine, not a game engine. There were no competitive goals in scenarios, just acts of co-ordination. Hacking also allowed people to take shortcuts in scenarios when things didn't go to plan, either from their actions, or from script errors. DayZ is competitive, however, but it is also a mod. Restricting an engine for a mod is just dumb business. This is why Day Z will be a stand-alone, so it does not hinder the flow of Arma.

To make a long story short; Arma engine has never had a need to prevent hacking

DayZ subreddit. http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz Its still pretty new, but a pretty good way to filter good from the bad (also I wouldn't mind if a DayZ staff member subscribed)

Remember that this is, and always will be, a milsim. It doesn't target players who want fast action, and the ability to quick-scope and knife people... Outside of DayZ, instances of hacking is relatively uncommon, so there has been no real focus on controlling it.

Meet Adelitas:

I confess I haven't played this game in months either...but to say it fails is very presumptuous. Rocket has a *tiny* team working on DayZ. The changes you are used to happening within a certain time-frame for other games will take much longer here. Just wait until this game goes in to full production, and the stand-alone comes out. I'll be playing the shit out of that.

:rolleyes:

This poll will have no effect on the course of the development.

Signed, Izugl. Don't you dare speak on behalf of everyone...you are nobody.

This is alpha, things will be reset eventually

Why did he not think of this before? I'll just pass you're idea on to him, servers should be down soon for about 1 hour, and all exploits will be gone.

As a fellow kiwi I'm highly disappointed that you posted this in the complete wrong sub-forum.

6-7 IRL, probably helped nudge a few online

Arma = simulator, not hold-hands corridor shooter. Welcome to the salt-mines, kiddo

The entire mod fails on this detail?

Admins are free to ban DCers when caught (as was discussed around a month ago)

Will pass it on
