Zombie Jesus 723 Posted October 18, 2012 Does dayz still have hackers if so is it bigger than before or is it getting better?No, wait for standalone and see if that is able to seriously reduce hacking incidents. (not directed at you AlcApwn, we had this discussion before and I will prefer to wait and see but by no means do I think it is guaranteed to greatly reduce hacking).Or just play casual and not let the few hack deaths get to you, in general I have had way more fun since I stopped caring what happened to my characters in this game.

rallye 89 Posted October 18, 2012 Does dayz still have hackers if so is it bigger than before or is it getting better?Private hives have reduced to the amount of hackers, are they still there? Yes they are, but they are far less annoying and rampant. If you wish to play go play private hive, public servers are just a disaster with airstrikes, satchel charge laying rabbits, Nyan Cat Magic buses, 'ghost' cycles, and more. ....

WalkerDown (DayZ) 296 Posted October 18, 2012 Private hives have reduced to the amount of hackersDo you mean passworded servers.. because "private hive" have the same amount of cheaters aboard .. or even more (coz ppl are usually banned on a single server if caught).

rallye 89 Posted October 18, 2012 I mean well run private hives with active admin teams and latest logs. Not Randomdudexxxsephirothxx's private hive of 120 awesome vehicles. Private hives that use white listing are what I am referring to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maddyn99 (DayZ) 25 Posted October 18, 2012 white listed private hives are teh only way to get away from 99% of the hackers. 1 or 2 will sneak in on occasion but nothing compared to a public hive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Double_Back 36 Posted October 18, 2012 Private hives 'saved' this game for me and I imagine for many others as well.I was pretty much done with the game at one point because of rampant hackers/cheaters/scripters, but I've been playing on the same private hive for a while now and havn't died once to a scripter nor have I seen any. I'm sure some are, but the admins are active and do a great job and at least the teleporting, laser beams shooting from their eyeballs, mass kill a**holes aren't running rampant. At the VERY least, what cheaters may be there have to be somewhat discreet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
