From everything I have seen it comes from the ruined vehicles, which would explain why it's there in DayZ but not in Chern when playing on the Armoury. I have my video memory set to default, but it still hits for me. I haven't tried "flushing" my memory as mentioned above... but who knows. Right now I am just avoiding those areas. Don't really need anything from there anyway.

I'm tired of it... .-. How can my group play without encountering hackers every day? It's like every day we spend hours getting re-geared because the day before we got hacked to death, only for the same thing to be repeated. What the fuck is the issue with this? DayZ has over 950,000 players and not a single fucking thing is being done about the scripters. It's even more irritating that anyone can use the scripts without being banned. The rest of the legitimate players are going to download and use these scripts, bypasses, glitches, hacks just because they're pissed that every other useless fucker is using them. What's even worse is that Rocket nor Bohemia are doing a single fuckin' thing about it. There are server admins that are attempting to do something about it. If the people who represent this game need some inspiration or advice on how to handle things, see this thread. Obviously you can't do anything yourself, so perhaps you should follow trend of someone who has less ability to protect the game from cheaters than you, the developers, the staff, the representatives. Point is, you can't do a fuckin' thing about it. Rocket didn't even acknowledge that the interviewer in got teleported to the 'Thunder Dome' for at least a minute. Keep in mind Rocket is indeed watching his livestream, so he knows that he was obviously teleported.In the exact same interview, Dean speaks about things he wants to add, such as indicators for bandits. Which would you prefer? Would you rather play without cheaters or would you rather know that the person you're looking at has a few murders under his belt? I understand that this is a mod that is currently in Alpha. But I've played several games in Alpha, Beta, or live. And this is the first one I've seen that scripters can spawn guns, items, vehicles, helicopters, etc. without even being kicked from a server. Why? Because they've completely restricted the access for the administrators of the servers. It's almost like they support the scripters. I'm sure this thread will either be ingored or be filled with trolls, but wait until you start getting set up in DayZ and instead of dying by a legitimate player, you die by some piece of shit that downloaded a script to do it instead of doing it themselves.

After playing this game around a week now I have always wondered what it would be like if everyone was "friendly" would we all be driving vehicles and possess the best guns would we defeat the zombie apocalypse or would we just have a 40 person group of hatchet wielding survivors? Tell me your thoughts on what would happen if we all worked together.

Hello! I'm Ivan and go by Argentino0 in game. I'm from Las Vegas NV and currently in the US Air Force. I been playing dayZ for about 2 weeks now and I still feel like a noob. I recently started playing with a friend that i met on a different game and trying to teach her everything about dayZ is not easy. We are peaceful but when it comes to finding other players we come across to many that are out to just kill making us very weary about killing others that come across. I'm looking to find at least one or two person to join our group in our quest of zombie killing and finding vehicles. Would be nice to find someone patient and mature who just likes to play for the fun rather than skill. If interested send me a message! Also please be on the west coast. We usually play around 5 30 pm to whenever we get tired.

the n my question would be where can i pull up player gam ids so when i report and record cheaters i have a solid gamid to connect them with? hackers tend to change there names. we had a hacker teleporting our vehicles away. I lost my UAZ and red car to this hacker. he teleported it on electro shore and when we saw batteye eye ban him the vehicles disppeared and we havent seen them since. even the bus is no where to be found. theres no way a bus just goes missing! I which vehicles respawn if unused for like 5 days. a lot of these vehicles could be in debug forest or off map somewhere and there will be no way to ever recover them...... main point how to i gather the hackers information so i can accurately report and record these happenings?>

That makes quite a lot of sense. The M107 is an Anti Material rifle, with a bullet so large I bet it can outsize your wiener. It's designed to penetrate armored vehicles. If that shit hits you, you'll be turning into the jam zombies put on their morning toast. The Mk.48 uses 7.62x51 rounds (which, according to the DayZ wiki, are the same caliber as sniper rounds, such as the DMR, M24 and CZ550). Combine that with full auto capabilities and you've got yourself an almost recoiless (at prone) sniper rifle.

You should see NwO vehicles/camps.

I was actually thinking of starting a thread about removing tents and storage capacity from vehicles. Thank you for sparing me the rage and death threats. You're my hero. I will also add that a player should not be able to loot his/her own body. This may be pointless and not worth the effort, though, because if the player is in a group, his friends can loot the body for him and then throw his gear in the ground for him to take, but still. This, coupled with the storage in tents and vehicles, make death meaningless. I totally agree with the idea of making the game harder, too. Zeds are not a threat. Their only goal is to make players more visible to other players (which is saying a lot, but they should be dangerous on their own). Food, drink, and temperature are not a threat either. Surviving after the first hour of gameplay is only a matter of not finding any players. Making matches an item with limited uses should help.

Hacker spawns in a out of game gun for everyone else. They all get kicked. Hacker spawns everyone in vehicles that arn't supposed to be in the game. They all get kicked. Hacker teleports everyone. They all get kicked.

There are various ways to fix these things. Things like kicking the player if they've got a gun that isn't allowed in DayZ. If you enter a vehicle that isn't supposed to be on the server (there are a certain amount of vehicles on each server) you're kicked. If your location changes too dramatically, you're kicked from the server. Point is things can be done, but they aren't being done.

We're lingering around our camp, one guy is collecting another person who is injured and a buddy of ours is scouting. The scout is killed, so I immediately look up the road and spot the suspect. I kill him 400 meter shot with AS50. I run to the guys body and he had an AS50 TWS, Ghillie suit, coyote patrol pack, flashlight, bandage, and absolutely nothing else. No tools, no backpack, no gear, nothing. As soon as I finished checking the body, the same guy teleports on top of me and kills me. Member of the group is running to his body to find out his name (obviously so we can report him) the body is gone and the clan member is killed as soon as he appears in the area. This shit is fucking ridiculous. This is easily the tenth time my group has been encountered by a hacker. It's fucking pathetic that nobody is doing a single fucking thing about this. BI has their head up their ass, Rocket can't do a fuckin' thing, nobody on the dev end seems to give half a shit. The point of the game is being fucked by people who obviously control the game more than the people that have developed it. ==== We set the camp up that we have over a week period time. We set it up in hopes that we could end up with some sort of player vs. player action. Something fun to do with other legitimate players. The point of us gathering half of the vehicles and parking them in the middle of the map is so that people easily have a chance of finding them and attacking us. Fuck no. Appearently the only threat are script kiddies. Why play the game if all you're going to do is teleport on top of people and kill them?

Uses m107 rounds. The as50 rounds just do bonus damage to vehicles.

Would still be horribly abused to find camps and vehicles, spectator mode for admins should not be an option.

Yeah well done, although to come on the forum and completely lie saying 3/4 of us disconnected when there were only 5 of us and you claimed to kill all of us? Vehicles we never had any :) Fair enough brag away, but don't lie dude ;)

Been playing this game for about a month now, just decided to register on forums today. So far here's a few suggestions I've come up with it so feel free to agree/flame/ ect. 1) Better tent system - Make it a possibility to setup tents on rooftops and slanted ground. Not like.. 90 degree slanted ground mind you, but maybe use wood piles as stilts or something to be able to prop the tent up? 2) Fences/Tank traps, ect - Could rocket find a way to make these items (and tents) stop falling through the floor if we try and set them up on a rooftop or second floor? I think it'd be neat to make a small "camp" on top of a hospital or something lol. Yes it's open to snipers blah dee blah but that's the point - RISK. 3) More vehicles - In the month I've been playing, i've only come across two bikes and seen ONE vehicle driving around. For a post apocalyptic world, and with all these destroyed cars around... the running ones are few and far between. Make it a possibility to repair ANY vehicle you find, BUT the ones that are severely damaged take substantially more parts to repair. 4) Some way to give yourself a blood transfusion. If I've learned anything on dayz so far.... you cannot trust ANYONE. 5) More enterable buildings // barricade system - What I mean by this is say.... you find an apartment building. You want to live/camp there. You need to find x amount of w/e parts/wood/ ect to craft a door/barricade so only you can get in (i.e. u have a key) but make the door destructable after x damage, or implement a lock picking system so other players/bandits can eventually get in. 6) Player constructed deer stands? - they would be noticeably different fromt the stands where deer spawn, possibly taller and more noticeable 7) Add a "clothing" store in each town - it's enterable, and all of it's spawns are specific clothing items/ masks/ ect that are unique to each town. Cooler items will be rarer, but say a hoodie with the hood pulled up would be far more common. 8) Booby traps? - (I.E. - Tripwire, mines, ect) if you see them and have a toolbox/hunting knife, odds are you can disarm them. Very hard to find materials to make them, do little damage but are loud so they attract zombies and knock you down for a few seconds if you trigger them. 9) ADD A SHOPPING MALL - every good zombie movie has one! And why not!? I mean... maybe put one in the center of the map...or on GREEN MOUNTAIN? O.o Good loot, would have a little bit of everything, but that's the point. It would be a massive bandit/survivor magnet on top of the NUMEROUS zombies that wander around both inside and out. 10) Grappling hooks? - they spawn in military areas, i'd say a 40 percent chance or so. You can climb to the top of any building with them. Once the rope is setup you climb up/down the rope like ladder and can pull the hook off uptop and put it back in your bags. So essentially , u climb up somewhere, and you can't be followed unless they have a hook as well, or you're dumb enough to leave yours on the side of the building. - Here's the kicker - because it's a ROPE... if a sniper were to say.... shoot the rope while someone was climbing up a building... said person goes splat 5 stories below.

for one buddy, we didnt have 5/6 vehicles ...and if you found 5/6 vehicles then youve obviously been at the wrong camp....

which gun the L85? and if so no actually I found a tent city : ) had 3 vehicles and other goodies

To begin with, I do not support the removal of weapons before their is a disconnect fix. This is the biggest issue and why people turn to using guns like the M107 or AS50. I much rather use the M24 or SVD but the other person d/c right after they have been shot. Secondly, .50 cals are needed to shoot down helicopters or disable vehicles. This is the only thing I would want to use it for. If you want all snipers to be 2 shot kills, then you would have to c ounter balance this by removing the fal and certain lmgs. People just need to accept that certain guns do certain insane amounts of damage. If y ou are w ith a group with people and there is no d/cing, you should be able to pinpoint that sniper and take him out before he kills too many of you.

I just got banned from this server and just saw that someone else got banned for no reason last week. It seemed that person was banned because they were stealing the admin's ([DES]Nasir) vehicles. Today (about an hour and a half ago), myself and two other friends were in the Elektro police station upstairs and I happened to see [DES]Nasir spawn in the room all the way to the right and I proceeded to kill him and take some loot. An hour later after we killed a few more people including another one of his clanmates, and then I was told I was teleporting and got banned. Someone needs to take care of this guy if it's widely reported that he is doing that to others.

Pretty much. it's much worse on server's with super geared clans that are duplicating everything. but why even bother hoarding the spawns if you're duplicating everything in tents/vehicles anyway?

Would love to see the map filled with vehicles but fuel being so rare that driving one almost never happens. Good suggestion OP.

Hey guys, I have been playing DayZ for about 3 weeks or so now and I have been enjoying it quite a lot, although I have never really had a successful life. Basically, this is my story about what happened to me today as I lost my best life yet (by a very long stretch) to what I believe was a hacker; I will post details and maybe you might know more about this than me, so you could help me out by putting closure on that life. So, after having travelled up the map with my two friends, and visiting NWAF, we were pretty kitted out with and L85, M240, M4A1, NVGs stuff like that. Then, we decided to set up a camp on top of a hill overlooking the Podeba (I think) dam in the far North of the map. It seemed safe as from the dam you couldn't see our campfire and it was forested over. We had a few tents and then we began to find vehicles, we had in the end 3, which, considering as I have never found one before was quite cool. Moving on to the last couple of hours. We all spawned in and met up at camp, after having been out collecting supplies in our truck. We parked up in the forest and saved all the vehicles, then proceeded to sort out our tents and that, getting ready for our next 'outing'. We were there for about 20 minutes, we filled up bottles at the dam and had some food, then all of a sudden our vehicles disappeared. About 20 seconds later, as two of us went out to investigate, I think some sort of turret appeared and mowed us down. My other friend D/C'd and survived but surely that is not legit? It was nighttime so maybe I am wrong but it sounded kind of like an AS50 but automatic.. Needless to say I was pissed; What I think is a hacker T/P'd to me only to kill me, he doesn't want my stuff just wants to piss me off. He succeeded! I took the respawn and changed servers, I felt as if the original (De 695) was 'tainted'. I was near Elektro and I went in towards the church. There was a bus near the church in poor condition but a dead player nearby had a wheel which I took and attached to the bus, so it could move. I took it to the Elektro Industrial Park near the coast and fixed it up, but in the process I was shot, which broke my leg and made me pass out. I was unarmed so I guess he wanted my bus. However he never came to my body or finished me off so when I woke up with about 118 blood in crawled into the bus and took off towards Cherno where my friend was. On the way, my friend told me over skype that he had been sniped; tbh I was getting tired of this random banditry and felt like leaving it. Then, as I continued along the road, a guy with a Makarov ran past and said he was friendly. He could have just shot me for my bus but he agreed to help me by giving me blood and morphine. So we went to the north Hospital in Cherno and he fixed me up, I offered him my bus to thank him but he turned it down. This restored my faith a bit in the DayZ community, because that guy could so easily have ended my life and took my full condition bus off with him for his needs. Now my character is in the Cherno Apartments, I hope this life can go better than my last. Thanks for reading my first (incredibly long) wall of text! But if you didn't: tl;dr - Got killed by a hacker on a good life, found a bus in elektro nearly died (118 blood) met a friendly on road to Cherno who fixed me up without killing me for my bus. Faith almost restored.

Clearly this whole hacking thing has been way overplayed… even though I met two hacking clans, watched my friend die to an invisible DMR guy, found hacked vehicles, logged into a server that had been completely flattened, been massmurdered, found a partially constructed thunderdome, and had my vehicles at several different camps satchel charged… all this week. I'm sure that's all just my imagination. You've clearly proven that there aren't any hackers because you played on one server for a whole hour.

Would definitely like to see vehicles being used regularly instead of hoarded, and this would be a great way of achieving it. The most exciting firefights I've been in involved vehicles, and it's a shame players don't often tend to come across them without the tedious work of scouring the map for camps. If this involved the ability to siphon fuel, I could certainly see groups being confronted with some interesting decisions to make when caught up in combat with a fuelled vehicle nearby. Providing cover for a squad mate while they recover your precious fuel would be fun. Also should be good for providing additional important locations on the map beyond the usual player hotspots. Removing persistent storage from vehicles (or at least drastically reducing it) would also go a long way towards removing the incentive to hide them, as well as introducing more difficult decisions on how to make use of backpack space. More food, more ammo, or more fuel?

Dont post new servers. Completely RUINS the server. Now watch some clan make it their home and hoard a lot of vehicles.
