What's the current hacking status like in DayZ:SA?

[Max Planck 7174]

What is up with the hackers? 

Merged

[tsandrey 379]

battleeye employee for example? a bohemia trainee? i dont care who tbh...

waste of time is to play dayz when the ingame-feeling is like half of the players are hackers.

And how many employees would it take to make a considerable difference? 100? Your method is impossible to implement for this game!

i dont Encounter many...and we useally have 1-3 firefights a day....

 

seems more rampant on US Servers...

Should see a big improvement on stable today. I didn't notice any on experimental but I stayed well clear of berezino and the neaf isn't the hotspot it once was.

The ghetto-rigged anti-cheat is horrible. You cannot drag anything to the ground if the items appear on the left side of your inventory.

 

I don't even know anymore.

[GrumpyFragger 67]

So did anyone encountered one of the common hacks ( Safezone, unlimited ammo, inventory steal ) after the new patch went on stable ?

The fix was pushed out of the door to get rid of the hack as soon as possible. The fact that you cannot drag anything off like you say is not as detrimental to gameplay (imo). We're fine tuning it now. Have no fear.

There were steps taken against unlimited ammo, there should be no more of these. Inventory stealing is fixed. Not sure what you mean by "safezone".

Just yesterday kill this guy and another one before that. Both had infinite magazines.

"Safezone" is the one were the hackers pray puts his gun on the back as soon as the hacker gets closer then 50m without being able to use the gun as long as the hacker is within that range ( atleast thats what people said when they encounter it and what I saw on uTube ), never happen to me tho...

Just wanted to share this:

We just finished a 2 hour session with a buddy,we got killed at least 3 times by players using speedhacks or teleporthacks,on 3 different servers with only 20 people on it.

One time in Novodmitrovsk,we both respawned at Cernaya and got killed the following seconds by a some guy who appeared right in front of us with a gun pointed.

Later we switched servers and we were killed again at the NE airfield by someone using the same hack..

 

I hope its not getting worst,i never saw this before....

[frosti 2165]

Stable or experimental?

Yep,sorry i forgot to mention but it was on stable hardcore.

Gotta wait few days.

 

Sometimes people #YOLO dowload hacks from youtube and have fun for few hours/days and sometimes it is new undetectable (for some time) hack.

Saw 3 kids yesterday with duped infinite ammo M4s. Also, Invisibility hack, instant knockout and speedhacking are still there. Encountered two hackers yesterday within 3 hours of play, I believe, one ACT wallglitcher and said 3 infinite ammo kids. So far I didnt encounter the stripping of a conscious player-hack. It may be that the infinite ammo mags are made before your countermeasures and are duped since. If you empty one of those mags, the ammo vanishes into the warp.

 

That was on stable 0.46, regular.

Dear DayZ Team,

 

There are still plenty of hackers online and i wonder why they are not stopped.

I also do not see a function to contact a server admin and make him aware of these guys. (tell my if i'm wrong and there is a function to contact the server admin)

Died twice to a hacker recently.

 

He's appearing on 4th floor, killing me. Blinks to 1st floor in a second to kill my pal and suddenly appears in the forest 500 meteres away in front of our third man.

Third man of our group luckily shot him and fell unconsious when looting his corp -_- The hacker is alive shortly after, fully equipped, reanimating my pal and telling him he's actually hacking 'cause he considers it "fun" and other players "hack too".

 

On the airfield we are trapped in a building and prepare for a fair fight. Guy just walks through the wall behind me to finish me off and kill the rest of my group too. Not reloading his M4 at any time and definitely using more shots than the mag can hold.

 

We dont need a new weapon nor a new town or airfield nor cars.

We need a working system to spot hackers and ban them. The mentally poor will not stop hacking as long as they are not punished.

It's no fun exploring the new content if guys like these are still around.

Hello there and welcoe to the Forum,

 

please make sure to inform yourself before posting, as the Anti-Hack-Tool is provided by BattlEye, which is a completely different company than Bohemia. The Dayz-Devs aren't the ones providing the Antihack.

Well that's an easy way to handle off the players concerns.

When i buy a car and the brakes do not work, i contact the company which built the car, not the one which made the brakes.

So the DayZ team should read these posts (and im aware of not beeing the only one complaining here) and work on pressuring BattlEye or switch to another Anti-Hack-Tool since this is obviously not doing what it should. I play this game since 2 months and it's still the same problem. So this does (or at least should) affect Bohemia, cause DayZ is their product.

[GrumpyFragger 67]

I stopped playing DayZ about 2 month ago when infinite ammo became common and it really saddens me to see that its still not fixed even if the BE guy said they fixed it ( last site ) and blaming it on Bohemia`s engine when proven wrong. Just check the usual DayZ YouTubers or Streamers and you see in every 2nd vid someone who is hacking.

I dont know how much money BE gets from Bohemia for their service but at the current state is clearly too much. I would love to help you test and optimize your game Bohemia and die on ladders, stairs and to wall glitching Z`s but its not fun to be the entertaining factor for some 12 year old squeekers running around with speedhack, infinite ammo and the hack that puts your gun on the back as soon as they close to you.

You will having a hard time getting this game finished and played when you not taking actions against these morons either by giving the community the option and tools to ban hackers themself from the servers aka give us private hives or you need to put more pressure on BE to get their act together.

Currently you losing those players who love this game and would stay for a long run and you gaining only those that wanna destroy it and will leave as soon as they get bored.

So I contacted the BattlEye support.

"(..) We are doing what we can, but you have to understand that we cannot fix inherent weaknesses/holes in the game engine.(..)"

 

May this now be Bohemias problem? Or should i search for the employee who wrote the exploited code in the engine?

This is hilarious. You're just pointing at each other and the players have to bear it. I understand it's an Alpha version but again: work on running the game safe before you spam the content becaus that is what lage parts of the community wants you to do.

 

And update something like "we improved this and that to minimalize hacking" not draw the curtain over the posts by merging them and pointing at me like "better inform yourself before you post".

Do you only count scripters as "those that want to destroy the game" ?

do you also count

for instance .. "fuck YOU Gaming JOIN = KICK"  [5.9.45.103]

(the name of a server today, taken at random)

Don't you think 'Fuck YOU' gamers are doing harm too ?

Between 'scripter gamers' and 'fuck you' admins on the public hive... I understand honest players feeling sad from time to time

 

But - definitely - BE, and BI developers are doing plenty to eliminate each hack

as soon as they can, aiming for permanent elimination

This is easy to see by looking back over the last few months

Tbh, I dont care how someone names his server if he plays after the rules set by Bohemia. And if this is a server were the Admin has his own whitelist and kicks all unknowns to provide a certain group hack free gameplay... kudos to him. It only shouldnt be abused as privat loot hub.

I gave the details of that server - go check it out, see if they play by the rules

I'm not complaining about a server, I chose it because it was the first on the list that came up, there are penty.

They are not helping players to enjoy DayZ that's for sure

they say what they think about ordinary players - they think "fuck YOU"
