Do official servers have admins? (admin abuse?)

[maliceubx 73]

I had a very weird experience on East 1-8 with a few friends and it seemed very fishy. We were in electro completely geared out and we bumped into a group of 3-4 who were geared to the teeth as well. Two of us were in the backroom of the grocery store and two of us were sniping/overwatching in the hills above the grocery store. After a little fight I ended up killing one of the guys coming into the grocery store and then proceeded to die from a mosin shot, and then our snipers took down two of their guys on top of the little sniper hill.

 

As soon as I hear a confirmed death of the guys on the hill I began running back from Solnichniy when all of a sudden I hear my friends "What the fuck is going on?" and then I see 5 players disconnect from the server 'losing connection'. 3 of them just so happen to be my friends. No battleye issues came up and no explanation was found for why they got booted but when they came back a second time they were immediately booted. They waited 30 seconds and joined a third time and when they finally got into the server every single one of them were shot to death before they could react. They were all split up a fair bit around the terrain (probably separated by 200m) yet they all died to gunshots within 5 seconds of login.

 

One of my friends even spawned in bleeding and saw a guy standing over him before he got shot.

 

Is this possibly admin abuse or do official servers not have admins..?

Honestly it sounds more like a hacker than an admin.

There is no admin power that can achieve what you described.

Admins can kick and say (ban not sure) and thats it. Indeed sounds like a hacker.

Seems there has been a massive influx of hackers/scripters lately. My last 3 days of play ended with hacker interaction. Once with a guy who teleported on me and my friend who proceeded to 'lock' our weapons so we couldn't pull anything but our fists out, and tried to box us both to death. Another was this incident here and just together I had a guy with a revolver teleport in 5 different locations within 10 seconds, 2 of those locations being right beside me and a friend who then proceeded to shoot us both in the head.

 

It's getting kind of ridiculous. Running VAC, and BE on a supposedly much more locked down client/server system then in the mod and yet we're still seeing it just as prevalent. I'm glad private hives will be out soon, at least they kept them decently locked down with consistently admins and 3rd party anti-hack.

BattlEye tend to hand out their bans in waves. I predict a massive surge of 'UNBAN ME' posts in a couple of weeks.

Unfortunately hackers will always be around, in every game.  Especially a game with such a large player base.  Your best bet is to log out during those situations.  As said above VAC and BE both hand out their bans in waves after they compile a large list of all offenders.
