Mokow 0 Posted August 4, 2012 Okay so me and my bud are playing and we're killing zombies at a nice spot in cherno when we start getting fired at by another player. We eventually find the player and corner him but he logs off disappearing from our sight. A few minutes later I think we got nuked...Like everything blows up and my character flys off somewhere. Is this some sort of admin control?(If the player was the admin) or is it hackers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legacy (DayZ) 1091 Posted August 4, 2012 It's hackers. Admins have no way of controlling players in-game besides server management, and kicking/banning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmashT 10907 Posted August 4, 2012 (edited) Why do players keep suggesting this is server admins, are you guys retarded? Why would an admin nuke their own server. Edited August 4, 2012 by smasht_AU Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legacy (DayZ) 1091 Posted August 4, 2012 Why do players keep suggesting this is server admins, are you guys retarded? Why would an admin nuke their own server.Many many people who may or may not of played Arma 2 before don't know what powers server administrators have, they take it from other games. (MMO's.)

MoronToTheKore 57 Posted August 4, 2012 If you were an admin you'd be paying for the server and the scripts to harass people. That dosen't make much sense! You can go ruin someone else's sever with just some scripting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why would an admin nuke their own server.Idk maybe the admin was the player me and my friend were fighting if u can read. The admin would simply just nuke the area just for idk trolling revenge? I dont know what server admins can do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dont know what server admins can do.In DayZ, server admins can't abuse any powers - they don't have any. Hackers are rampant at the moment, just have patience and don't get to attached to your gear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skillasaur 8 Posted August 4, 2012 For the sake of balance, I've known a lot of server admins on other games who have also turned out to be hackers, even in amateur league clans. It's not a fair assumption to make, but it's hardly an unreasonable question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
