matty19908 18 Posted July 25, 2012 So i logged into UK34 with my 8 or so day old character with ghillie, silenced m4 and m107 in my bag aswell as the biggest bag in game.. waiting for my buddy to join.. i see a survivor running in the distance at elektro.. so i watch as he moves at lightning speed toward me (no way he could have known i was up there as i was lying down)... he runs at me shouting on microphone so i shoot the zombie after him.. at which point he charges at me and it makes me go into first person and unable to move as he laughs on mic.. so obviously i was scared of losing my gear to this douchebag so i aborted.. joined a new server at which point i can see i am a GOAT!..Is there any way that someone can revert me back to human.. losing my gear isnt an option.

Drblodski 53 Posted July 25, 2012 do you have screenshots? Quick - press esc and respawn before its removed! Go find new gear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

matty19908 18 Posted July 25, 2012 Well the guy ran at me so i shot the zombie. then he changed me and started laughing.. i could even hear him when i was lobby saying "whats up bro?".. people who hack/cheat in games are pathetic... ive been through so much with this character that respawning isnt really an option.. ive heard of the developers moving/changing players who are stuck.

matty19908 18 Posted July 25, 2012 im just going to hit respawn.. seeing as admins/moderators arent even replying to this so its just wasting my time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
subtle 29 Posted July 25, 2012 Yeah this isn't going to get fixed. Just respawn. At least you weren't turned in to a newt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leavaris (DayZ) 8 Posted July 25, 2012 im just going to hit respawn.. seeing as admins/moderators arent even replying to this so its just wasting my time.they probbly wont reply/look into it either, they have far to many reports to lookinto ontop of there current dev work,hackers are runing rampantly due to nothing ever being done and server admins not being able to do anything, and when/if they do they get hate threads of folks claiming they are cheating, im a testament to that i have 3 loland now with a new public hacking tool that was made available several days ago(i wont post the URL), this will get much worse. every scrub who thinks they are cool with download it and hit a button and the laugh.Dayz dev, i fully understand your work load but get your shit together, either keep up with the current ammount of reports (which i dont think is possible) or seriously rework your rules to server admin. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drblodski 53 Posted July 25, 2012 I love how everyone expects rocket to fix the script kiddy and 'hacker' issues. This problem has plagued the game from day one since a very long time ago (more than 5-6+ years).It is not rockets job or responsibility. Barely any of you (<5% now I would guess) played this game before the DayZ mod came out. You have no clue. Write to Bohemia and ask them to fix it - but honestly they won't or are not able to technically. The ARMA engines were never meant to be used in intensive PvP situations like this. Nor with persistent playable units. It was designed as a mil sim for mostly coop play. I get tired of these self entitled adolescent little pricks going on about rocket you must fix this hacking or nerf that exploit and make it your number one prio to fix!! He cannot in most cases. There is no prevention other than the cure that is banning CD keys when it is detected. And even that is patchy. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Littleassassin2 73 Posted July 25, 2012 Is there any way that someone can revert me back to human.. losing my gear isnt an option.Also, you could always go to an empty server and have a trusted friend kill you near a big city in the south or just somewhere near the shore and have him/her guard your body till you come get your stuff again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
