acoastalhero 46 Posted March 12, 2014 I have just been killed by some guy who was teleporting behind me and laughing his head off around the back of electro, he kept appearing behind me and vanishing again calling me a 'fag' like being killed by a hacker is not enough it had to be a 12 year old. This just seems to be happening more and more and i just do not understand what is going to be done to stop these cheaters, everyone is so quick to say 'there will always be cheaters in a game' but that does not excuse the fact that nothing is being done about hacking. Battleye and vac are not good enough on their own. I never played the mod but i am 99% sure they had both and it did not really make any difference there so does anyone really think it is going to do much now, especially when the hacking websites sell copies of dayz for really cheap as well so the deterrent for cheating is not working. I think hacking needs to become the number one priority because i am not going to play this game again if i get killed by another hacker. Is there anything else that can be done to stop cheating ?? because if battleye and vac are the only things then i dont have much hope for the future. Is anyone else getting killed by hackers a lot more lately ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zero22 0 Posted March 12, 2014 Happened to me and my friends (5man team) two days ago. We survived from a few firefights and got decent loot, only to die later by a newspawn with an axe blinking behind us like a ninja and laughing while killing us all. Was annoying.

ld-airgrafix 403 Posted March 12, 2014 The only way to stop people from cheating is to reduce the need for cheating. And I'm sorry to say (or am I????) that the only way is remove pvp. I think there are actually heaps more cheaters than we know, mostly everyone has experienced "only one other player on server and he just happened to be at the same spot as me", we are calling it a glitch but I think it's more than that. Banning players will never work, devs just need to invest in better anticheat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Meekalew 44 Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) I never understood why devs don't code in basic anti-cheats in the server; it takes almost no resources to remember player positions and if player position A is exceedingly different from player position B within X amount of seconds that would be impossible to reach by running then to instantly kick the player (not ban, just kick). Same goes for ammo checking, etc. The server have to process and forward all these calls to nearby clients, an extra count check is not going to lag a server at all; it's networking that slows down servers, and none of these things would slow down the networking.

Lordocalot 14 Posted March 12, 2014 TP'ing will be fixed soon, the MMO architecture can be changed very easy. Spawning is also disabled for now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrappleX 354 Posted March 12, 2014 Battle eye bans in waves, and another should be rolling in soon. Expect to see a ton of "wah, I got banned for no reason, help me" threads.Always a good read. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PJSleaze 111 Posted March 12, 2014 Happened to me and my friends (5man team) two days ago. We survived from a few firefights and got decent loot, only to die later by a newspawn with an axe blinking behind us like a ninja and laughing while killing us all. Was annoying.Recently happened to me- didn't see him appear, just know that it was in the woods outside a base, crouched in some pines, and I'd been real methodical, but someone axed me from behind. No footsteps, nothing. I figured someone just got the drop on me and I must have missed something, but the where/how felt out of place. Maybe its a trend. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jex 1104 Posted March 12, 2014 You should have ran to the sea, dived in, swam out then logged. Oooh did I just find a new exploit for logging? If you log in water, you'll sit but can u do that when ur in the water? Will it sit you on the ocean floor and hidden from view? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really wanted to find out what else can be done for stopping cheaters other then battleeye and vac so although i understand it may be annoying i wanted to know why more has not been done. Also if you have not noticed and the many threads are there to prove it if you want to believe them, cheating is becoming a lot more prevelant. I am noticing this and so are many others and i dont think another ban wave is really going to stop it so i guess this game seems to me to already be like arma 2 and no one can tell me why this is going to be any different.
