jcrose803 48 Posted January 17, 2014 I was playing with a friend just now, providing cover with my mosin sniper while he planned to loot balota airfield. He killed two armed bandits at the airfield and I guess they had friends because during that firefight two snipers started firing at me. The two snipers and I got into a very long firefight during which i was sure I landed a few direct hits but did no damage. One of them even ended up server hopping to my building and I axed him to death as he loaded in, lol.... It was intense. I was determined to win, and was trying to keep the remaining sniper's attention while my friend moved up for the kill. Then the unthinkable happens........ From the airfield more than 600 yards away, the control tower to be specific, a barrage of bullets erupts. They were automatic, and one would assume they were from an M4 except there was one issue. THE BULLETS WERE GLOWING RED STREAKS OF LIGHT THROUGH THE AIR! Every bullet looked like a tracer bullet on steroids, and even though i was laying down behind the wall where i would not be visible, they were fired directly where I was laying. From my experience, at that distance an M4 shouldnt be able to fire a spread that tight at full auto. The bullets were all very accurate, with not much recoil effecting them. It could just be me freaking out, but they didnt even sound right. I've never seen an M4 do that! Is that something new added to the game or have I witnessed some ridiculous hacker ray gun laser beam cannon? Beware the space guns. Has anyone else been assaulted with space lasers? After I saw the space bullets I screamed at my friend that hackers were on the attack and we both immediately exited the game....but first I hid the server hopper's body. dick bag. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

poodude28 (DayZ) 36 Posted January 17, 2014 Well on the bright side if kids/hackers get banned they will have to make a new Steam account and spend another 30 dollars to play again. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Immersive 121 Posted January 17, 2014 (edited) This game hasn't been out for more than a few months and hackers have already made there way here. Shows how bored they are. Shouldn't they be off prestiege hacking in Quickscope of Duty or something? Edited January 17, 2014 by Immersive 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jubeidok 495 Posted January 17, 2014 Try to train yourself to call them what they are, cheaters. Hackers actually have a certain level of skills, knowledge and intelligence to do what they do. These people are simply piggy backing off someone else's work. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyingpurplehippo 17 Posted January 17, 2014 (edited) Take a can of beans, a batteries, a knife, a flashlight, matches and sticks.Break open one battery, poor the acid in the can (after you empty it) and use the sticks and matches to burn it.Now poor the concoction in the flashlight where the batteries go and turn it on.Bam, energy shield, now throw it on the ground, stand up and snipe that bandit who has a laser automatic sniper rifle.
