Hackers/Exploiters??

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I just has my first real "WTF" moment. I've had the same character for quite a few days and had some nice gear. I've been raiding staying in the forests, eating animals, doing the occasional raid etc... I've been up and down the map a few times.

Then just now I was in a barn when the screen glitched and suddenly I appeared on the coast with a couple of players surrounding me in ghillie suits. Shot and killed me...

What the hell is this? How did they transport me to the coast to kill me?!?!?

So annoying. I dont mind dieing but if someone can just instantly transport me to an ambush then the game is sort of ruined for me now. No matter how careful I am it doesn't matter...

surely you can work this out yourself...

seriously, crying that the game is ruined because of one meeting with cheaters? pretty childish.

eh...how am i crying? I'm stating a simple fact.

what do you expect me to say? hey, ho pip and dandy i've just been killed by cheaters

is the point of these forums not to air ideas and grievances. i'm simply stating the fact that unless cheating is controlled in some manner then the game will be ruined. Should I just keep quiet and not share my experiences in the hope that cheating will some day be tackled - which I am lead to believe is one of the main areas the developers are currently looking at...

why do you feel the need to come on and not offer anything constructive anyway?

what is "pretty childish" here is your reaction to someones post. sad really

You were teleported by a hacker

thank you. this is a more balanced response.

I figured that was what happened but I just find it odd that this isn't better controlled in some way.

Keep in mind hackers are in every game. That cannot really be stopped, It's just a little more annoying in dayz because you lose sometimes days worth of loot when they hit you. Try playing on lower pop servers, They seem to like the higher pop ones so you should be safer.

same reason you feel the need to make yet another "oh wow hackers" thread. like every moron on the forums.

yeah, saying work it out yourself (from the overwhelming evidence) and telling you to stop crying that the game is ruined because you ran into cheaters is so childish.

you'll be whining that some asshole shot you next, after you shouted friendly and everything.

you are aware that it is damn near impossible to entirely stop cheating? let alone on an engine such as the arma one?

the more you know....(the less you look like an idiot)

If you want to play as a survivalist at the moment you would do best to play on a private hive that has side chat and active admins. You at least stand a chance of seeing the hackers coming then and you will have time to bug out or cry to the admin. Personally I find that form of play boring as hell.

Its more annoying in Dayz because its A LOT more common ( not the devs fault people abuse the way the game works)

Its just script kiddies being douches .

If I could get my hands on a new GUID I would help you out and give your items back.

no. i'm all for the that. it adds realism to this game which is absent from most others. what annoyed me was that you can contend with the fact that any minute you can be shot or overwhelmed by zombies. thats fine. now you have to deal with assholes just cheating. thats my point

thats everyone else for the balanced conversation.

is this becoming more common or am I just unlucky.

3 times now today the same thing has happened. On 3 different servers.

Each time I get teleported into an ambush.

Either I'm seriously unlucky or this "hack" is becoming more widespread...

The instant you are teleported hit esc/abort , i have it down to a fine art now :) Always carry morph and keep your blood up because sometimes you will also have broken legs and get the long knockout timer when you relog. Expect it to die off a bit as the other game is now out and the script kiddies will have something else to play with now.

Weren't you just on here the other day all proud of being a hacker? Karma is a bitch isn't it. Hope the kiddie BS was worth your $30.
