AthanTheGreat 5 Posted March 31, 2013 Thought I would play some vanilla DayZ today so hopped on and headed north to find a fully working car with 3 AS50s in it, (was a clans). I then drive up above NW airfield to make a little base. All good so far. Check the barracks and so on.I then abort. Later I join back to find the server down so had to go on a different one so I can't get my base. When I join I am in the debug forrest walking around, so I just abort and join a different server then I am re spawned at Elektro with all my same gear. Was kinda annoyed that I am all the way down here but was thankful that I still had my gear at least. I then head up to sniper hill to see if I could kill some bandits ( so close to becoming a hero.) I find a good spot and go prone, instantly breaking my legs and killing me. Then respawn at Kamenka and run all the way back to elektro to find my gear still there, thankfully. Pick it up, and, the next thing you know, half the server just got killed by a hacker.What a great day.Still love DayZ though, just think I'm gonna stay away from public hives for now.

Maloney (DayZ) 26 Posted March 31, 2013 Yeah if you join a server and spawn in the wrong place then gtfo. Chances are its a hacker.A similar thing happened to me, I was fully kitted out, I had an AKM with about 6 rounds of ammo + food and beverages, medical supplies etc. When suddenly a hacker telported me to the middle of nowhere alongwith all the other players on the server, I logged out before I got killed. While I was logged off I decided I would join a private hive, but before that I wanted to try and loot the other players the hacker had killed, I got shot down by some guy who was prone on top of a nearby hill, probably the hacker.

derpybob 0 Posted March 31, 2013 Yeah, I was playing with my brother when a hacker who was invincible killed him.This is the one thing Consoles have going for them. Hackers are next to non-existent. They'll be there everyonce in a while, but far less than on PC.*Sigh* Just play and adapt, I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The mainstream consumer doesn't want to have to know about his computers specs and the many trials and errors he may have to experience, he just wants to sit down and play, which Is so much more convenient on console.I prefer PC due to the freedom we have, a mod like DayZ will never be possible on console. Not just due to console hardware but also because of the restrictions that are enforced by companies like Microsoft and Sony. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
