Disgraced 1123 Posted July 31, 2012 Yeah, people gonna find it. Thats why previously they always stashed them off map. New idea: only one chopper, spawns in cherno. All chopper parts spawn in elektro. Go! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A.Jones 5 Posted July 31, 2012 how is the full version going to tackel this?how will the servers handle the game?what i want to know is how can it be 100% safe that your time isnt being wasted because of server problems and hackers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buffjesus 357 Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) our first chopper we completely fixed it up, my friend / cousin flew it to the mainland for fuel while i stayed on the island incase something bad happened.they start flying back to get me; some guy spawns in on the island and kills both of them with 1 shot of an AS50.i finally make it into the server 15 seconds later (total load time was like 7 minutes so far) see the chopper starting to rise so i put a full as50 NATO mag into it blowing it up and setting the whole island on fire.but guess what, they picked up their corpse (after having zombies kill them so they could respawn... magic you can still respawn if you dont spawn where you want huh?) we hopped to a new server and fixed up a new one.

drake_hb@hotmail.com 22 Posted July 31, 2012 had an 8 hour battle last night with another group for the heli, even got it repaired but had no fuel. until everyone in my group had to leave and then my net died. Killed them so many times over the day/night. Woke up this morning, logged in and they'd obviously got it without us getting in the way anymore. Sucks because we repaired it and they got it haha. Great little war though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SwissArmy (DayZ) 5 Posted July 31, 2012 New idea: a little Tamagochi keychain box to protect your loot while you're AFK? :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A.Jones 5 Posted July 31, 2012 my point is that i could have put my chopper in a safe place if the server didnt start dropping players or before that a hacker didnt teleprot me to the westest part of the map and make me run for an hour.if you dont understand why im frustrated why bother flaming me?

danielreid 84 Posted July 31, 2012 Rocket has made it clear that the current server architecture cannot support any more anti-hacking protection. A standalone game will not have the same problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
