Cheater possibilities

[ZomboWTF 527]

So yesterday on my favorite server, there were some weird happenings including a bunch of people getting killed at pobeda dam, to arive there 5 minutes later again with full equip

i asked some of my mates and they said cheaters were free to go atm because they can fake their arma2 cd key or ID, or can completely work around the scripting logs the servers are writing

So, does anyone know of a fact what dayZ cheaters can do such a thing? until yesterday i never saw a cheater myself, well, alive at least, saw some hacked in guns in bodies but not more

as far as i know, cheaters can:

-Toggle god mode

-spawn stuff in

-teleport around

-see where vehicles/players/tents are

-nuke a server

is there anything i am missing? can cheaters actually protect themselfes from getting punished completely? sounds like a lot of BS to me if they actually can...

They can polymorph other players. They can also teleport other players. There's also been reports of hackers turning non-full auto guns to full auto. That's just off the top of my head.

Edit: thought of a few more: there's throwing everyone in the server up in the air, teleporting them all to the same location, simultaneously breaking everyone's legs in the server, and now the infamous "thunderdome"

Well.. i don't know exactly if they have found a way around the battleeye.

But battleye will eventually be updated and catch those guys.

The problem is, even though their cheating have been logged, it'll take some time before they will be banned.
