Wallberot 37 Posted July 20, 2012 Not really.. I don't hate any of you.So... I finally find myself a camping tent in the apartments in Chern. I set off to find a good spot to throw down my newly aquired tent, locate a spot I believe to be "pretty" safe. This took me like 2 hours, because I am still in the process of figuring out the map and what not. alt tab out, in, etc etc looking at the DayZDB map.Ah ha! This place is perfect.... I proceed to lay down my new tent after a few minutes of crawling around to find the sweet spot. I put a few things in like a can of beans, a few clips, what not.... I didn't have much. I save the tent.The next hour I am just "sorta" standing around admiring my new tent and talking to a friend when I fellow in a gulle suit logs in right on top of me.. I kill him, and am unable to loot some of his gear and within seconds his body disappears.. At this point I realize a hacker has found my location, and am dead a few minutes later.I took it well, and shrugged it off. We are in Alpha, after all.Gosh dang some of you. Gosh dang you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scerun 227 Posted July 20, 2012 My heart sank a little bit. You were building up a really inspiring story, and then you snatched it away. Gosh dang hackers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wallberot 37 Posted July 20, 2012 Thanks, Scerum. I wish I had more to add. But, that was it. The voice was entertaining, and have no way of adding that. Just basically me swearing and my friend laughing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
badbenson (DayZ) 38 Posted July 20, 2012 man i feel your pain! actually i encounter hackers everytime i play dayZ now. it wasn't like that before but now it sure is. with the hack they use they can warp around the map very fast. due to that i more than once killed a guy twice in a matter of minutes because he came back after i killed him once.your "story" describes pretty good why hacking in dayZ is even worse than in any other game because just getting the most simple stuff used to be an achievement in dayZ. and even for PvP it's the same. all the work i do to get in a good position and all the patience i invest to wait for the perfect moment to pull the trigger are worthless now too because once i search for the guy's body i realize his body is gone and then he comes back knowing exactly where i am and shoots me in the back.and even if you are more skilled than them (which is always the case...why would they hack in the first place) it won't help you. i once revenged the dead of a friend killing several guys who tried to get me too. i kept changing positions and they never knew where i was (i thought). after killing the first two i was stalking the last guy while shooting him atleast 5 times in the chest from about 200m away (which didn't kill him because the hack makes them invincible except for head shots) his buddy i just had killed appeared next to me out of nowhere with fresh top gear and a ghillie suit of course. i had to empty a whole mag into him before i killed him again. so if you have the slightest suspicion that someone is hacking just disconnect because it's not worth it if you wanna keep your stuff. i survived that time but most of the time they will bomb you or teleport behind you to get you.
