I've killed the admin's friend on this server before, and never found anything odd to happen, however he did admit to Ghosting and killing one of our friends because "we were being dicks, because we stole their car, and its just not fair if we have more than one car" I do get the feeling these guys purchased this server because they thought they could hoard all of the vehicles for themselves etc. PS, if you're reading this admin, I have your yellow hatchback, but PM me and you can have it back. Cheers

July 14 at 8:45 pm GMT-5 Multiple witnesses saw a hacker teleporting, aimboting and spawning vehicles. Earlier in the day, he was also suspected of hacking and spawning bots as witnessed by two players on the server.

Some guy hacked the shit of out a game, killed everyone. Fuck it, I had M4A1, Camo Suit, Vehicles. This is just great..

Hmm you sure about this? Cause the bus was facing me exactly, and considering bullet drop the impact would have been exactly in the center of his chest without the windshield. So the deviation would have to be like 45 degrees after hitting the windshield and considering the windshield was maybe 75cm from his body that would be extremely unrealistic. Can anyone confirm that you can shoot through intact windshields in DayZ atm? Im sure i didnt miss cause i was sitting at a sniper spot ive been practicing shots from in the editor 20 minutes before... So if it was a bug i'll keep trying to shoot people in vehicles, but if not ill just kill them before they get in from now on.

Doing that is taking advantage of stupid noobs. I loot vehicles and stuff but i usually play in a squad so we have like 5-6 people covering whomever is looting and we scan about 15 minutes before even attempting to loot, we'll also shoot 320s and stuff around to lure people out and make snipers move. But yeah it's really fun to bait a Crashed Chopper...

Since so many videos and reports were made because of admin abusing, and not just in these forums but in all over the internet, what is exactly the thread's purpose? It's obvious there are legit and honest admins, but there's alot of them abusing their limited power over their servers. Also @zoop, I know the servers restart for many reasons. While playing for 3-5 hours without interruption, on many occasions I experienced, when some vehicles change hands, server goes apeshit. it's not entirely coincidental that the server restarts, and multiple times in a row, alway then, always with the same motive.

Just at the top of Zub having a look around with my binocs and I see one of the Gunz4Hire clan members crouch walking into a town. I only had an M4 CCO but I thought it would be funny to fire a few rounds (they would never have hit it's such a huge distance) and freak them out. I fired about 7 shots and got my binocs out to have a look. All the zombies were gone. Hmmm. Check the name list and they had left the server. Lame lame lame! I saw what I assumed was the G4H clan rocking around in 2 vehicles prior and I was trying to track them. Can't remember what the G4H members name was exactly but I won't be going on their server again!

I like all my posts getting locked and then hosting 3 servers and all get full to the rim in 2 hours. It really is sad you guys won't support the private HIVE system and make us edit files for our non-hive. I have 3-4 blades waiting to run more servers on my HIVE that mimics the official HIVE with the addition of a few more vehicles. Why not just give us the build and that way I could give you feedback at the code and help? Most of my users are playing on my servers because they want to play your fantastic game without having to wait 5 minutes to load in on the incredibly incredibly terrible HIVE system.

CH means cross hairs. Vehicles should always be on, but there is a chance that a clan has already gotten the main ones and is hoarding them in their base.

Sometimes when the server restarts, tents don't make it nor do vehicles. As Phresh said they come back at the next restart and it appears this has happened and everything is fine. @ Phresh - I hope one of the newer beta's has those functions enabled. Or even in Arma3. Arma2 servers, are to put it lightly, crappy.

Clearly, the green bike is the adult state of vehicles. The UAZ and ATV are just larvae.

Well due to people being fuckwits and exploiting the game by hiding things off map, you get people like myself and others exploring these areas looking for vehicles. It is strange there is a bike there though, maybe someone is hacking them into bikes?

I have found a few repairable ATV's that are not on any of the maps. Most of the maps out there cut off like 2 rows of grids on the top and there are some spawns up there. I've found several vehicles people have hid but been looking specifically for some of the military offroads and gaz's.

I would say in the maybe 10 or lower range. This is including all vehicles as in bikes too haha

There's tons of vehicles that spawn and aren't shown on the map at all. Just need to keep looking, once you get the hang of finding vehicles you'll pretty much always have them.

Ok, I want to say murder and companionship are bad skill ideas (as you proved in your post) but I also want to say something else. Here is the main idea: People want to balance out what people can do. Not everyone can repair vehicles, ride in a helicopter, and operate guns with absolute ease. Fix it. That's all. I might have missed some points, so add some if you like. Right now, I don't see anything I missed, but I'm not thinking that hard. Just wanting to tell people that what people suggest here is not THE way, just trying to get some form as to how this would all work, because if it did, I bet a LOT of people would like it.

I also find more enjoyment in scouting for other's camps. However I suggest more running/driving around one server as that is actually legit. I do it all the time when I play and I find a lot of camps (less vehicles lately, though). <-To be fair, though, I play a lot of hours each day. Had I only spent ~3 hours a day playing, then I would likely be a lot less lucky with my finds. But when I do find camps, it's usually more or less a birthday party with NVG's, GPS's, camos, ghillies and top tier weapons. That is why I do it rather than go die at barracks or Stary. I'm done with those half-raids :P I play solo usually. Don't have to server-hop. Exploring--while slow--is a fun part of the game. Biggest downside is the map feels smaller and you lose the sensation of finding new locations after a while. Can't wait for underground structures and/or a bigger map. Also, about the ethical part of hopping: it's quite unfair to raid someones camp and moving to the next server. It eliminates the "resident's" ability to protect his camp or hunt the scavenger down. I experienced this the other day. I had raided a camp west of Kamenka (it had a lot of goodies and some car parts/fuel cans) and was peddling onwards, bearing NW, when a car comes from my opposite direction (probably the owner of the camp, considering the fuel cans, etc). Needless to say he quickly came to a halt and started unloading at me, while I zig-zag'ed as fast and hard as I could while the bullets where planted everywhere around my tyres. I escaped alive and without a single bullethole in me or my bike as his car was no match in the forests and plains to my bicycle. Thank the stars there is no stamina system implemented yet :P

Oh sweet! I've yet to find any vehicles. I'd love to get the bike though :D or a tractor.. just for shiggles.

Officially vehicles are saved when you loot at them, scroll and select "save vehicle". I've noticed that lately even when not manually saved the vehicles seem to stay where they were when a server reboots though. But sometimes vehicles just seem to disappear into nothingness as well. ;x

This page gives a lot of info on vehicles in DayZ http://dayzwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Vehicles

Were they outside the map? Then it is your own fault. As if you are really curious: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/31571-hotfix-build-1723-rolling-update/ and search for "vehicles"...

Looks like vehicles reset on my server. It happens. Don't horde. Share the fun.

As far as I know, all vehicles remain in the game this update.

Hacker on DayZ 575, once the admin comes on today, your name will be posted here. I can pretty much guarantee that you get banned. Once we get your GUID, I will be personally reporting you to BattleEye. It's convenient that I know a BattleEye dev. I'll just report your GUID directly to him. Enjoy buying a new copy of the game. We know you are hacking and are able to see all of the vehicles on the map. You have killed multiple people within a second of each other with an AS50/FAL which is quite impossible.

Awesome idea, I'd love to help in anyway I can. I'm a server host and could probably hook you up with a server to be based on, if you didn't already want to play on the ones I currently have online. US-874 is actually a brand new instance ID; so all vehicles are just spawning in today. For more information, check out my signature.
