dgeesio 1034 Posted June 13, 2013 well just wondering as many do abuse this and my number one hate in dayz as many servers are obviously run by admins and giving them godlike knowledge of everything as going on kinda destroys the point in playing fullstop.i know it can be useful but many do abuse this tool and i have seen it many times. so will this be in standalone or not ? i hope not as you may aswell allow cheating cause most admins will follow you around the map will steal all your loot and will kill you by tracking you with the tool.

starthealmighty 597 Posted June 13, 2013 That Control Pannel is for Dayz ST Servers, most have their own custom toolsAnd I Dont think This will mean much, as Dean Hall has said many times, that The Standalone Will not have Private Hives for Awhile after its release.

rick808 9 Posted June 13, 2013 I doubt it, I think that was put in more to aid streaming events such as Survivor Gamez and the like as I know Rocket is a big fan of those and has developed with them in mind.im pretty sure it was made to combat hackers. just look for servers with admins that are not 12 yr old kids. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

m_mitchell 27 Posted June 13, 2013 That is rubbish. Admin's try hard to get their servers popular, not ruin the servers they pay for by cheating. Not necessarily. I know one that currently just kind of like "I won't be with the server much longer anyways" and doing sorta bad things. He's not killing everybody but he does reveal positions sometimes to his buds sometimes as well as fixing vehicles and such. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes there are some admins that abuse their powers but saying the majority of all admins do this is totally false. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dgeesio 1034 Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) omg love how admins will come in defending themselveslisten many admins do abuse this :rolleyes:who includes a tool that can let you see what everyone is doing live !why even play ? the whole ponit is to be stealthy and sneak about why bother when admin is tracking your every step.i have witnessed many people doing it on many many servers . admins are often playing in groups that group always seems to find you in some random bizarre place becuase one of em has the tool open and is tracking you.lock the tool dont make let it be live.what good is it just saying go find a another server who has the same tool and is doing the exact same thing :lol: genius !the tool is at fault it needs stopping. if someone other than the admin used this they would get banned ! its as bad as cheating. difference is admin can do it on his own server and guess what nothing ! nothing at all.its a major floor in the game. most people who admin actually have it open most of the time when they on.

dgeesio 1034 Posted June 13, 2013 Sounds like you need to choose the servers you play on better!i play on many many servers and it is common practicethe tool is a legit hack. anyone else would be banned for using such a tool. the only difference is your runnnig a server . thats it.you dont even need to see people live. there are anticheats to do that and this shouldnt be in standalone. before you start about anticheats next i have run servers gaming wise for close to 15 years i know what is what and what does what. you may not use the tool to your advantage but many many people do.admin has base you sneak in kill them take there gear woops lets check the tool oh they over there lets go. this is the too common scenario in dayz.you shoot admin with sniper hes with few other players on teamspeak wheres he gone ? oh ill just look. why even give people that power over public players when you dont need to be seeing what public players are mvoing live ? saying i might not do it or i dont who knows who doesnt when its smack bang on your pc screen while playing .

How would you recommend an admin identifies a teleporter without being able to see who is jumping all over the map?The resolution to your gripe is very straight forward, if you don't like the tools that private hive servers use then dont play on private hive servers!

HMS 115 Posted June 13, 2013 dgeesio, I am with you on this and have said this many times. While I won't go so far as to say "most admins this" or "some admins that" the fact is, if you have access to the SQL database which is the heart of your server, you have access to this. That's locations, health, loot, NVGs, every conceivable variable.These are the facts.The facts are also: I love the guys at Balota, Billy Mays, and other good ones. And also: I still do not like that.This is simply how the game was built.I am bummed to read that so far nobody has been able to say "Don't worry, the stand alone won't be like that."

These tools which the OP is complaining about are exclusive to private hive servers, so I dont know why you would think these tools could be used on Standalone when they cant even be used on the current official DayZ MOD public servers. :facepalm: Edited June 13, 2013 by U.G.N - Jedi Panda 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dgeesio 1034 Posted June 13, 2013 this is what i was asking or if another tool which would be made to do same tol on standlone !so basically triyng to stop it happening again when standlone is out.i understand about private hives have a dayz server up now :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kazioo 15 Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) Admin's try hard to get their servers popular, not ruin the servers they pay for by cheating.Yes, REAL admins are mostly great, but there are some people paying hundreds of dollars for power-ups in F2P games and even more for custom, undetectable cheats. Those people won't hesitate to rent a server for a while only to get some kind of advantage, but I doubt that SA server tools will offer anything exploitable.The idea is to create a "fake" private server (maybe even a "cracked" one with more "tools") connected to the main hive (will be allowed), use your admin privileges to find the best loot and then destroy normal players on real servers, who will struggle to even find an unopened can of beans...We are not talking about private hives, because those won't exist in SA alpha.All servers will be connected, you cannot just ignore "bad" servers and be happy, because those "cheating" players with their ridiculous gear will also come to the good servers with good admins.

marko4231 57 Posted June 13, 2013 Did you ever play Minecraft. Admins there are in creative mode, they can fly, TP (ok, so can normal players depending on settings) turn invisible, and use whatever block in unlimited numbers and many other thinghs.Now go to MC forums and troll them with your admin abuse theories.

SixGunLover 54 Posted June 13, 2013 I also have an admin abuse story (like many other) but just by common sense I know that this is not the vast majority of the admin that are trolling around. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HMS 115 Posted June 13, 2013 Panda, I will see your Cpt. Picard Facepalm, and raise you a Willie Wonka advice animal.What we are wondering is if the backbone and database are going to be handled essentially the same way, with easily editable tables in wide open SQL. Sure, the current claim is that the SA Alpha will be Public hive only. The question revolves around the fact that I don't intend to stop playing after the alpha, and am wondering how it's going to be built.We're all just looking for data.

RollingLizard1 33 Posted June 13, 2013 The obvious solution to admin abuse is just go get your own server. I for one am glad for all the good admins out there that create great and safe places for me to play. Only complaint I have is extra gear at spawning in and servers with tons of vehicles. I prefer to be a survivor. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f123456789knvm 10 Posted June 13, 2013 DayZ standalone will be more MMO oriented, they stated this a lot of times already, that means NO dedicated servers, this is to combat hackers and abusive admins. Quite frankly I find dedicated servers to be completely stupid and useless outside a clan type setting, admins abuse their powers and tend to be really in love with themselves. I have yet to meet a "nice" admin that doesn't flaunt their authority or try to keep an environment where he's pretty much invisible, and one of the excuses for this is that they pay more money. But you know, who cares since Standalone will have no admins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you talking about virtual game servers that are run by clans/groups/communities but are hosted by commercial hosts like Vilayer, or actual (physical) dedicated server's that clans/groups/communities lease, or do you mean dedicated game servers that are hosted and run by BIS? I suspect your using the term dedicated servers incorrectly as it makes your post not make any sense. Edited June 14, 2013 by U.G.N - Jedi Panda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
