Hello, I am very pissed because of hackers right now, it looks like over 50% players using hacks (scripts). Yesterday I was trying to repair chopper with my team, we found chopper on the island, we spent a lot time to get there, guarded it and tried to gather all parts to repair it. After like 3h we had most of the parts we needed except some main rotor. Then someone logged near the chopper, all of us started shot him from like 2 meters, he didn't die even after receiving heavy gunfire directly in the face. After like 30 seconds, he just entered chopper and.. flew away. Chopper wasn't repaired so it was impossible to fly it (we tried). But he did. Chopper also survived heavy gunfire from us. We just started to shot chopper after this guy turned on engine, including nato ammo shots from two as50. We were so pissed off because we wasted like 4h to repair it and then some random hacker stole our chopper. Then we decided to find another chopper on different server, on the same spot. We finally found one on some DE server. We found all parts again except engine, chopper was almost ready to fly off, we just needed this last part to make it moving. And then situation repeated.. someone logged near chopper and just fly off. Of course he survived heavygun fire. But this time, in addiction, he killed all of us and nuked island, so because of that our bodies disappear and we couldn't loot them. Also I am afraid that was same hacker, just roaming on high populated servers, searching for chopper. We were very tired and very pissed off, spending so many hours to repair choppers and losing two of them by hackers. But finally we decided to repair another one.. We jumped on another server and we had some more luck this time because we found all parts quite fast and repeired chopper, all we needed it was refueling it. Then one of us (me) went to solnichniy for jerry cans. While I was searching for jerry cans outside the island, my teammates on the island received heavy as50 fire from the coastal near krutoy cap. I came back fast, and noticed two dudes shoting direcly at the island and my friends, I killed both of them. Then I looted their bodies, one of them had.. AS50 TWS (Thermal AS50). We finally got chopper and killed some hackers (yes I don't know if they were hackers, but they had hacked weapons, I think they spawned it because near the road was dropped Bison). So in my opinion, hackers destroying this game. Scripting is so easy (I just found program that allows you to do any hacks you want by few clicks, however I am not gonna download it, i am not cheater) and server admins cannot even ban those people legally (just kick). So yea, awesome game turned into hackers wars, which don't understand that point of playing dayz it's fear of being killed. My question is, should i drop AS50 TWS or it's not bannable to possess hacked weapon? At the one day we met around 6 people, 5 of them were hackers/had hacked weapons. Thats really ridiculous. My friend also looted someone with hacked skin and hacked silenced sniper rifle. tl;dr - fuck hackers. another qq thread

This is not only QQ thread but complex and suspenseful story. :3 Also I just wanna know if me and my friends can hold those weapons or something changed (as I know you CAN hold those).

We hold more weapons than just sniper rifles, that's how we doing this. :) And of course we need short-distance players as well. We playing for fun, looting, sneaking and killing when we meet someone on our way, we looking for people that take it serious and does not attract zombies if it's not neccessary etc. We really need some friendly mid/high experienced players to play with us so we can make more fun and feel more comfortable while looting town, arifield or crashsite. :) Also repairing vehicles will go much faster. So contact Ivehag if your interested!

Thats sounds awesome! I am definately in. I sent you my steam account name on private message.

Hello, So I am wondering, how people using huey? Except fun from having rare machine, is there anything that you can do extremly effective with chopper? Let's say I found fully working chopper, what should I do with it? :D

Sounds cool, flying "outside" of map is allowed and it's good place for searching tents? Or using tents here isn't even possible? :)

1. You are forced to Kill people. Basically there is no way to not kill people if you don't wanna risk to be shot in the face. Proposal: Give us something, that tell us if player is trustworthy or not. Like humanity bar over player head, or in the playerlist. 2. [Veteran] If you kill player you don't know whos your victim. If you get killed you don't know who killed you. In my opinion, in game where you have only one life, thats some kind of basic information.. Proposal: Give us this info. 3. [Veteran] No way to check players nicks. Makes teaming up so hard. Proposal: Let us check players nicks on veteran, somehow. 4. Flies when no body around. Proposal: Make filies dissapear together with body. 5. No penalty for being Bandit. Proposal: I was thinking about something like that: If you have high humanity (dunno why they removed humanity anyway) you should get chance to respawn with some of your old gear, if you are bandit and die, then you start with basic gear. 6. Hard to teamup, due to random spawn/distance. Proposal: Let us choose spawn point (more or less) or make boats common vehicle so players can travel around coastal fast. This will also reduce players amount in main cities. 7. Lack of info. how you died. Proposal: Give us some info. how we died (zombie, type of weapon +player nick or starvation etc.), and shot direction. Would be nice to know what we did wrong and it will prevent questions "What did just happen?". 8. Lack of chat channels. Proposal: Give us global channel for survivors, global channel for bandits, private channel. I don't write about bugs like zombies hitting through walls and other bugs, becasue thats obvious. What do you think? Those changes do not make game easier, but a bit more comfortable.

So much hate. As expected. But you guys didn't gave me any arguments yet. And do you know what kind of weapon killed you? Good for you. No' date=' those proposals won't make it more or less carebear. Thats just some portion of informations we should get or let single players team up with others easier. No, in fact in "one-life" game and on so big area, killcam wouldn't become painful for "killer". Anyway I didn't write anything about killcams so I don't understand what you talking about mandman. :) Also, if you think that information "who killed you" is bad, write why, please.

Hello, I am new here. I just found that awesome mod and I want play it badly. I just have few important questions. Can someone trustworthy what I need to play DayZ comfortable and forever? I have Arma II Non steam with SP serial Code (lost my mp code), what else I need to play DayZ? Can I use Arma Free on steam + buy only OA? Will it work properly? Greetings!
