Well dependong how long you haven't played... You might want to call this game HackPvpZ xD I still play it daily, the new maps that the community is giving out is keeping the game fresh. I recomend you play on a private hive.

Good private hives have slowed down hacking quite a bit. There hasn't been many graphic updated. They removed the L85 cause of its thermal scope.

I'd say in some ways the game has changed a lot and then in others it hasn't. If you are coming back I recommend a Private Hive. Hackers can be pretty annoying at times and quite a worry at others.

Check the change logs most of the recent updates like 1.7.3 and 1.7.4.4 have been done by the community if I am correct, You may want to read the change logs since the version you last played on this mod has changed significantly.

I want to give a list; I just came back and there is so much. But take the other poster's advice, just read the release notes. A lot has changed. Private Hives now are the thing to combat the hacking, and they have also created a more serious community, which is helping in the standalone's development.

Find good private hive from here http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/92982-community-private-hive-server-listing/ and try some of the new maps. It will be a hacker-free, fresh DayZ experience.

As far as the core game is concerned, its just as fucked as its always been. Except teh UI is different and there is no L85. Doors still kill you, watch out :D
