KNOW your enemy (i.e people who shoot on sight)
2ndOmen replied to hungrycam's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I have lots of loot. I don't enjoy spending all day shooting and looting areas when I can't save it in tents/vehicles. Why waste a whole day finding good gear when I could go to a 50 man server, wait a few minutes, kill a few people and then be fully loaded out? If I see you, I will shoot you that way you can't shoot me. -
**I have thoroughly searched the forums for this topic. Thus far, I have not located a topic like it. If this is has already been posted, sorry!** Thus far in Dayz, I have been plagued by alt+f4ers, people who abort from zombie aggro, and a variety of other players who coward out of fights. A good simple solution to prevent this problem is the introduction of a logout timer. What is a logout timer? Put quite simply, a logout timer is something that when a player disconnects the player's body stays in the server for an addition amount of time past the player's disconnect. The mechanics of how something like this would work could vary and are debatable. The important thing is that a logout timer would prevent people from evading combat by disconnecting. Here is an example of logout mechanics that could work for DayZ: #1: If a player currently has zombie aggro, his body remains on the server for an addition 30 seconds after disconnect. #2: If a shot lands within X amount of distance from a player, his body remains on the server for an addition 45 seconds after disconnect. #3: If a player fires a shot, his body remains on the server for 30 seconds after disconnect (except in a case in which Rule #2 applied). For those of who think this would never work in an online game, EVE has been using a similar style system for years: http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Combat_Timers Thanks for reading.

Actually, if you must know, you ignorant twirp, there was 2 hackers from [LOST] running around with Infinity ammo, helicopter, teleporting, invisibility hacks. We don't mind dying if you're good enough to kill us, but we had to kick everyone and shut down the server to go through the logs and ban/report the hackers. Next time don't act like a cocky kid when you don't know your facts.
