Muncywolverine 236 Posted October 30, 2012 Am i the only one?It's difficult to even find a full public hive server now-a-dayz. I always though the server-hopping persistance system was one of the unique features of DayZ, and i feel that private hives destroy that part of the game.Most people seem to think differently, and play private. That, or they play private on a different map. I miss the glory dayz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted October 30, 2012 Server hopping and ghosting are exploits...Private hives are better in every way IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Solitude 42 Posted October 30, 2012 I'm sure after standalone there will be a much better anti-hack system, and public hive server will begin to repopulate. Also if this goes big (like I guess it could), then you would be playing with heaps of others, and many new players, so it might have a lot of players. Same thing goes, it could go pear-shaped and be very easily hacked, though I doubt that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derpy_Hooves (DayZ) 4521 Posted October 30, 2012 well 34k players are still using the public hives so they are out there, honestly though i have had so much more fun on private servers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted October 30, 2012 There will be hackers. There are always hackers...The question is will whichever anticheat Rocket goes with stay on top of it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hawc 63 Posted October 30, 2012 Some or maybe all vilayer servers are part of a private hive so you can still server hop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheLibrarian 71 Posted October 30, 2012 Still playing public hive. And hackers are pretty funny. The small joys I get out of destroying stuff they spawn in. It actually keeps me in the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although they are Aussie servers and there're not many private aussie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josh225 129 Posted October 30, 2012 Havn't seriously played on a pub hive in ages, mainly because nobody seems to host to Australia anymore, seriously there is a very little amount of Aus servers, I honestly could probably type in au to the filter and count the Aus servers on my fingers. Stuck playing random private hives until standalone. Hate it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
