Hello guys,
We started to think about the future of public hive servers.
We are considering the idea to discontinue the possibility to rent public servers. Admins have very limited options to moderate public hives and servers are frequently used as loot/dupe farms, which ruins the DayZ experience. According to community, public servers are more often targeted by hackers. That is however not confirmed by our data which indicates that they are rather aiming at higher population servers with streamers present.
So, we need your opinion guys. What do you think about public servers hive? If you are renting public server, why did you choose a public and not private hive?
EDIT: This isn't about ending public hive, but not allowing people to rent a server on the public hive. We will still have a bunch of official servers offering intended experience.
