so lets go through what rocket said. so they are going to use the old scripting system, with little increased work for hackers. obfuscation is no security by definition, but appearently BIS has not yet acknowledged that. with a sophisticated server software & communication protocol you indeed CAN make injection useless. this has been archieved by almost ANY game since the 90s of the last century, usually the client disconnects because of desynchronisation. Speaking in terms of DayZ: if the client "picks up beans" (or tells the server it does), the server has to check if it was able to do so ("there are in fact beans in valid range, which are not taken by another player at the same time"), and disconnect it if not! arma2 does not, but any half-serious game does. yes, lets take the problem we created by our own ignorance and put it to a "to be constructed"-workaround which will work in 10% of all cases at most. not needed if you would do your job properly. finally a good idea, but only in addition to a validated server-client communication goddammnit! the only uses of VAC/PB (PB should be your choice, as VAC fails totally in MW2) should be countermeasures against wallhacks/aimbots/clientside manipulation. i seriously hope you do NOT talk about the guys at battlEye. did you know you can attach a fuckin full-scale DEBUGGER to the dll without it even NOTICING? and that they do not even check the SIZE of the dll? we changed the version with a hexeditor and it didnt notice we run an older version! Games like World of Tanks, Heroes of Newerth (the latter developed by an indie company as well) and many others send their clients EXACTLY the information they need - and not more. if you cant see a unit, its not in your RAM. what does arma2's engine do? it provides ANY client with ALL information about EVERYTHING on the map. players, tents, vehicles, EVERYTHING. dont use anti-cheat measures to cover up your crucial mistakes with your engine!

From Elektro to the NW Airfield, no distance is too far for us! were you brutally murdered? or simply ran out of bandages and bled to death? Well we can offer you safe passage back to your location or to a new one! the only price we ask is rights to any loot found on the way. This includes vehicles, heli crashes, and dead players. However, we may typically turn down high yield loot oppurtunities if we feel you need it more than us. send us a PM if you're interested! (medical rescue service may be entailed)

By plenty of vehicles, do you mean none?

I see you have not added any sniper rifles to this list, i do dissagree greatly as you have added vehicles. And as people are complaining that the AS50 and M107 shouldnt be in the game because they are anti-vehicle weapons then you have take the vehicles out of the game too then please. Or we could etleast have one amazing gun in the game that we all aim to get (a lot of us anyway) such as the AS50 and M107, but a nice thread :).

No game is hacker free, but Dayz suffers from far more hacking than other games due to a very script friendly engine (we should remember this engine helped create the mod so it is not all bad). First you need to realize that since this is a mod of Arma 2 they are limited in fixing the script friendly engine since it runs the risk of breaking the actual game you bought to play Dayz (not starting that discussion but we should at least agree that Dayz is a Mod and there is a separate game that can not be broken for the sake of the mod). So they should focus on fixing things like tents and vehicles (which they largely did) because that was an achievable goal for the mod while fixing hacking beyond what we have seen is impossible as of right now. As far as the steps to combat hacking I asked a similar question and this was the response I got from him. Some of it is technical so not sure if all of it will come across but the gist is not allowing injection of scripts making it easier to identify those who do this. Hope that puts you at ease, but if you are still worried just wait a couple of weeks to buy the standalone and make sure to read up on the issues that are important to you.

He meant Panthera and another map (Zargabad mabye, smaller takistan like map) are available for download through Dayz Commander as of last night. To OP's question I love Lingor and have grown to like Takistan (but the desert spawns suck, nothing worse than having to run through 3000 meters of terrible desert terrain). Fallujah is still a question mark in my mind, sure it can be fun and the vehicles are cool but the city itself is terrible. Outside of the Airfield the map really does not have a draw so I find myself playing and having fun but wondering what it would be like with some other compelling areas to go. I kind of like the forest feel of Chernarus and Lingor versus the desert maps of Fallujah and Takistan, but that is just a preference (helps that Chernarus and Lingor are both well made maps versus the turd that is Fallujah). Panthera is awesome and might supplant Lingor as my favorite new map. Been having a ton of fun just messing around on the map and with the addition of the Vilayer hive it will only become easier for people to play on (for better or worse).

Vehicles get found easy, I have an idiot of a friend that managed to stumble upon a camp site and truck in the arse hole of nowhere in the pitch black. A lot of the time with vehicles is pure luck, other times like me, its looking in places people think are safe.

I hide all my stuff in and around cities. No point in playing if I have to spend most of my time traveling. Anyway, I often have all my tents and vehicles vanish on server restart, then the next restart they come back. So make sure you are checking back after the next restart. Good luck. I currently have a pick up, Gaz, PBX and old bike. This does not include the motorbike I crashed in the lake, the 3 small fishing boats I don't want and the 2 old bikes on a server that vanished. I am not bragging, just trying to say getting vehicles is not THAT hard. Keeping them is much harder.

On many of the public hive servers almost every vehicle is hidden out of bounds. They won't. Vehicles out of bounds will only disappear if they are not saved every 24 hours.

I always save them... Can a server have problems saving vehicles? But if that occurs, could the server save the vehicle sometimes?

Vehicles hidden outside the map will disappear after restart, and they're easy to find there anyway.

Hi, you are welcome to check us out at The BSB Network. We're a social gaming community that is dedicated to fair and fun gaming. We have over 200 players in various Fire teams and groups playing Day Z and using our Teamspeak Server to communicate and coordinate their scavenges and raids. These teams have several bases, vehicles, camps and play across several of our own home servers. The community is mostly adult gamers over the age of 20 (well over in most cases!) but there are no age, time or skill requirements - all we ask is you play fair and have a bit of common sense about you! Our members are based all over the world and are on at all times of the day and night, but all speak English and most are based in the UK and Mainland Europe with some in the US too. We've been gaming as a community since 2002, so we're not some ad-hoc fly by night clan that's been quickly set up and will be gone in the blink of an eye! There is no obligation to join our clan or any of our affiliated clans/groups to take part in our sessions though, everyone is free to urn up and get involved. If you're interested check out or website @ www.bsbnetwork.com and try to hop on our Teamspeak 3 server and say "hi!" 212.187.246.58:9140

There's a bug with the newest version when the server restarts sometimes vehicles and tents disappear. Might be what's going on..

Just a quick question regarding vehicles, how do you keep them? My friends and I have had 4 different vehicles only to have them gone the next day. We have saved them multiple times and they were in pretty well hidden places. Its to the point of why waste time repairing it if its going to be gone the next day. Could we be doing something wrong? Thanks for the help

Whenever I find a vehicle, repair it and save it, the next time I log in it's gone. My hiding place is next to my camp, which has never been found (couple months now), holding an L85, M4 M203, M107, DMR, things people would load in the vehicle when leaving. Happened 5 times now, and it frustrates me that I'm not capable of having vehicles. Please help.

Trust me, there are tricks out there that make vehicles so damn easy to spot. Not to mention the hacks that simply mark the vehicles on the map. Solution? Deal with it and wait for the Standalone.

Whenever I save a vehicle, the next time I log in it's gone. It's not stolen because it's right next to my camp, which has never been found (been there for a couple months, different camps in different servers, none found) and it was holding an L85,MK48, M249, M107, M16 Acog, M4 M203, all that stuff, still there. It's happened 5 times now, and I've simply given up on vehicles now, unless I have a solution for this.

Admins can only do a gear check by looking through the logs, a daunting and time consuming task. Admins cannot magically see you and your stuff on a map. Scripters running a script to take the vehicles, more likely than admin. Admin have far fewer "powers" than most players realize in DayZ. To the OP, likely your vehicles just got stolen. They are easy to see, even in trees and the places you think are out of the way are the same places everyone else thinks are out of the way. Thats why my buddy and I run through out of the way places every once in a while and almost always find vehicles and tent camps.

Hello there! I'm in very need of a ride from Whatever location you can go to near the coast up too the North west airfield. I'm a fresh spawner and you can have all the loot we meet, crash sites, weapons, vehicles etc. Please contact me with a PM or add me on skype Ludvigseen

Come join yall we are getting a trade in and upgrade system in place so you can upgrade your weapons and vehicles and even get custom bases!

what about construction vehicles .. Bulldozers (clearing trees' flattening ground ).. backhoe's ( trench digging ).. dump trucks... etc.. ... I know we are going to be able to make underground bases... Wouldn't we need these to construct them.. I not diggin that shit by hand.. Being able to modify and scavenge the vehicles in game now would be nice also. I can weld .. Why wouldn't I if this happened take my 4x4 and mod the shit out of it. Generators for what ever.. flood lights.. electric fences... Etc.. think of the player made base's you could build with some of this stuff.. Dig in.. build tree stands.. surround with barb wire.. sand bags.. bear traps.. electric fences.. not enough juice to kill you.. but enough to knock you out.. I saw in here somewhere about building traps.. why not.. snares.. pit traps.. spikes.. log traps.. rock traps.. If this was happening.. i would dig in so tight in my home range after years you would not be able to get near me when I at my base. Some kind of body armor also. I know if this shit going down. I be grabbing what ever I could find to help with personal defense.. shit even football shoulders pads. baseball catchers leg pads.. I played paint ball pretty hard core years ago and I had a real bullet proof vest I used to wear under my camo. Add all weapons in arma. can keep out all the thermals cept the L85..
