frankthetank (DayZ)

I can confirm that this player GodlyKills is a hacker on the US349 server. He kileld leemarvin and tstinger and teleported to me which i was on the other side of the map NE corner. I am sad to say that I was a coward and alt + f4. I didnt know what else to do agianst the guy spawning a BLACK SUV and shooting AS50 like a grenade launcher. When I logged in the camp was destroyed and all the trees were knocked down or uprooted. The BLACK SUV was all charred and burned up. Thanks to this my friends are done with the game. Hopefuly they will play when stand alone comes out. This game with its scripts is just too easy for hackers and battle eye seems to be doing jack to fight them off. Sure 11k bans out of what? A 1 mill + pop game? Anyway, I feel for you Ark. I think that alot of people will be skeptical to buy the standalone when there are so many complaints of hackers ruining the game, so I say good luck to rocket and his team. This game has such negative publicity that many players will pass over the future standalone game. Hacking has become synonomous with DayZ. Why would you spend hours getting tents,gear,vehicles only to be destroyed in 1 second by some hacker who can join at any time and fk you over? Adios my friends who have died from god unkillable hackers.

Same thing on our server. It has respawned twice in the water. Everytime you get in she blows up. Server restart does nothing to fix.

I think this game needs more melee weapons though. The casual player often does not get a chance to get sd ammo or silenced guns. At night time you want to make as little noise as possible so you use the fire axe if you dont have a quite weapon. Personally, I would like to see maybe a katana or chain saw replace the pistol slot so you can have a silent kill weapon as a secondary. I think the entrenching tool should also be a melee weapon that you can wield agianst zombies sort of like a shovel But seriously, wheres the baseball bat or golf club to quietly take down some zombies. The options for a silent melee weapons are endless. Who needs a crappy pistol when you can cleave zombies with a butchers knife? Atm their are how many melee weapons? An axe and a crowbar? Thats it....common. It would also be cool to see more throwable objects.Which also should be added to kill zombies at range quietly. More Throwable weapons ideally: Throwing knifes Saw blades Tomahawk Molotov cocktails Cans (already in game) Bottles (already in game) Darts Melee weapons ideally: Knife (hunting knife) Axe (hatchet) Crow Bar Shovel (entrenching tool) Bat Chain saw Katana Tire Iron chunk of wood ( should be able to swing your fireplace wood at zombies, I mean hey its a weapon right?)

I love the idea of having a chance to bring a teammate back from the grave. As long as the item is rare kinda like antibiotics where you have to venture to a facility to get the loot.

Just happend to me last night. Instant death followed by tp outside the map. I managed to find my body and noticed a few other bodies near the coast with high end gear, I assume the same happend to them. Btw running really sucks! What causes this? Is this a glitch? Has this occured prior to the latest patch?

Time: 3AMish EST Server: US349 (Peacekeepergaming.com) I logged in to check and see if the tents were spawned and holding items. After the last server restart all the tents and vehicles de-spawned for some reason. I get to the lobby screen and see to players named: LeYang and Trevisus. I took a screen shot later but I dont know how to find it or if it saved. Anyway, I got past the lobby and instantly died before I even saw my player even load up. I previously was logged out in the middle of no- where near a tent with full health and wearing a ghille so its impossible I was found or killed under normal circumstances. I mean ffs, a server with 3 ppl in it and this douche hacker kills us? I mean what is he doing testing his stuff out? Anyway, instant death followed by teleported waaaaaaaaaaaaaay outside the map as there was no vegetation anywhere. I press 'G' for gear and everything is gone. I still had my ghille on. I see one other player where I was but no idea of his name just said survivor. My kill count and zombies are all still the same even after my death. After staring at the other player in a ghille who was not moving (maybe afk) I logged out. When I logged in thankfully I was teleported to Oatmel nearby the coast. ALL MY GEAR GONE but I have my kil count and ghille suit. Thankfully I can go to a town and gear up agian, that is if I decide to play anymore...from reading the forums it seems like its easy to hack and battle eye is doing a good job of banning people who are just playing the game. I loose all my gear that I spent hours collecting for no reason. I mean its one thing to spawn flying cows (which i saw several days ago on the same server) but another to fk with players who did nothing to you.

can you explain what is this if not a hack? Is this a common bug now or what? Thanks I read a little bit and it sounds like people are just spawning out in the de bug plains, but they are alive with gear. I am telling you I was killed before I even saw my hidden character. When I logged in I had a ghille suit which I should of lost of If I was killed normally and had 0 items not even a backpack or flashlight. I have been killed hundreds of time, each time you start with a fresh skin + flashlight and backpack as well as kill count. My kill count was exactly the same when I was alive and had my gears when this happenend. I suspect foul play.

Whats wrong with the logs providing more detailed information? Server admins IMO are the last line of defense agianst hackers. IF anything admins should have all the tools at their disposal to rid players who are scum. Paying for a server, imo should give you the right to take out the trash in your server even if its leased.

I agree. If your going to hack at least do somthing creative, I mean have a goddman heart and dont punish innocent people. Its one thing to spawn items, another to just kill everyplayer in the server.
