Darkendeavor 5 Posted July 23, 2012 Hey guys,Something that I have witnessed and I am sure a lot of you have been victim to as well- having that invincible player gunning you and your buddies down, the teleport in the sky and fall to your death, the random explosions, and many others. I know there are many threads about this, however it still is a problem that is effecting a large number of the player base. I would like to start a discussion detailing player experiences with hackers, what they had happen to themselves/friends, and any other details that they can add.As for the Day Z staff, if possible I would like to ask them to give us some insight on how things are going on their end on resolving these ongoing issues and if they have experienced anything themselves while playing. The mass ban a month or two ago seemed like it calmed things down for a few weeks, but here lately it has been more prevalent.Among technical issues such as zombies hitting through walls and random glitch deaths I think this is one of the bigger issues regarding this game, since death has so much significance.If you are lucky enough to not have experienced these issues, or perhaps you just bought the game from steam's awesome sale, here is some evidence from Youtube:They should be in order as it happened, just different perspectives. Thanks guys for your time and hopefully we can work together as a community to stop the hackers from ruining our experiences. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DarkRaven123 602 Posted July 23, 2012 Battleye is contracted to handle anti-cheat.Rocket and team don't have anything - Directly - to do with hackers as it stands at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkendeavor 5 Posted July 23, 2012 I thought Rocket had to do something manually to initiate all those bans a few months back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Womb Raider 92 Posted July 23, 2012 You are right, if you've played Day Z for a fair bit you would of experienced at least one hacker by now, I've been playing for a while and I've only ever experienced three hackers. The first time was when everyone on the server died instantly, the second time was yesterday when the whole server was teleported to the same spot twice and killed by a hacker. It sucks and I'm sure people would be quitting over it, but I had a laugh at it and pressed on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
