helcol 174 Posted March 28, 2014 Today, I have run into people going into a secluded area and duping everything that was hard to find. I even had times when I, and probably others here, have accidentally duped their gear. Should these individuals who "farm" this gear, if their identity on steam is discovered, be reported for this exploit? I know the dev's are clearly aware of this issue and I know this is alpha!! I am curious if there is any planned punishment for exploiters? To my knowledge, we were able to pretty much stop ghosting, but more things keep popping up left and right, good thing these are all being found in the alpha stage.

Geckofrog7 1168 Posted March 28, 2014 Glitch, not technically hacking at all, so I don't think there'll be any punishment besides in server admins banning those they find.It will disappear when duping is fixed in the not so far future. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Etherious 907 Posted March 28, 2014 No, they cannot get in trouble in this stage of the game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is annoying to walk up to a duping farm. :( Thanks for the replies! Do any of you know when it WILL be punishable to do exploits? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weedz 1105 Posted March 28, 2014 (edited) Do any of you know when it WILL be punishable to do exploits?When the entire point of the 'game' existing isn't for people to go find exploits. Edited March 28, 2014 by Weedz 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
helcol 174 Posted March 28, 2014 When the entire point of the 'game' existing isn't for people to go find exploits.so in beta stage? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M0RG0TH 40 Posted March 28, 2014 so in beta stage? Beta is still a lot about finding those pesky bugs and exploits that made it past alpha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
helcol 174 Posted March 28, 2014 Beta is still a lot about finding those pesky bugs and exploits that made it past alpha.then what separates the beta from the alpha? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M0RG0TH 40 Posted March 28, 2014 then what separates the beta from the alpha? They usually stop or slow down adding things into the game during Beta. This way they can concentrate on fixing the bugs and exploits. Though, not every development team in the world follows that guideline. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uberfrag 35 Posted March 28, 2014 Are dupers really bothering you that much? It's not like those using the teleport hack to grief and kill others..it's just people duping gear so they don't have to go through the timely process of re-gearing.I don't endorse duping but I can see why people do it and it doesn't really bother me.

But, the dev's know and I hope they find a way to fix this...soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glitching a duping is exactly the sort of thing you should be trying. If you get it to work, report the bug. This is the Alpha stage so try to break the game, do unexpected things. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

helcol 174 Posted March 28, 2014 before taking your brake please make sure you have given feedback about those dublicates mechanicsI will, sadly the group of friends I currently have pretty much stopped playing Dayz. However, I woke up today and thought to give it another go. Maybe i won't find two people and three bodies in the middle of the forest duping gear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Instead of getting angry at the people using exploits which is part of alpha testing in the first place shouldn't you be asking why the DEV team havent fixed the exploit? Why would they ever punish someone for the exploit ? Shouldn't the DEV's just fix it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why would they ever punish someone for the exploit ? Shouldn't the DEV's just fix it?That's why I was curious, because an exploit, like combat logging, is extremely hard to eliminate. But the dev's are trying to eliminate it. There are also some people that think combat logging is not an exploit. [Edit] my question has been answered. Thank you to those who did so in an ethical manner. :) Edited March 28, 2014 by helcol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frothyboot18 46 Posted March 28, 2014 I agree with you... The game is about survival and scavenging.... So survive and scavenge... If people wanna kos, let them, if they wanna dupe, let them, this is a game that they paid for from their pockets,for me, as long as they dont teleport, use aimbots, use god mode, spawn in guns and helis, infinite ammo and i can still kill them with my gun, then i say game on... At the end of the day, they can only use one gun, one scope and their m4 still needs to reload no matter how many times they dupe their mags and ammo. Saying youll quit on the internet just makes you look like a *meooowwww*.... Just learn to deal with it and play on.... :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
