Hive killed us?

[Fajeth 32]

Our squad of 4 players decided to have some fun yesterday.

We all had camo suits, some high grade mil weapons etc. We went to the barn north of Elektro, shot some snipers and camped there, killing ~ 6 players over like 2h, was alot of fun (not shooting unarmed players, 4/6 kills were banditkills).

When all of a sudden the whole server dropped dead and we all get ported to the debug planes, still in camo but without equip (DE 27, 64 / 64 players).

So we relogged onto DE2 and everything was fine (still in the barn north of elektro), everybody in the squad still healthy and full equipped, we logged out and wanted to sneak out later on a night server.

Logging back in 2h later we all just had the "choose your gender" screen and had to start new characters... what happened?

(And no, we weren't killed in the barn while logging in, we did not all log in at the same time).

How did we all die? And why are all my chars that survive longer than 10 days are getting killed by hacks / glitches?^^

Hackers. Admins don't have the power to do that and Hive is just a DayZ server component

Look across the forum. You´re not the first one experiencing this. I agree with TSAndrey must have been hackers. Maybe one of your victims wasn´t so happy and decided to play god.

Don't play on the DE 27, it's a crappy server. Restarts without warning and hacks. Not to mention tents are more buggy then ususal there.

Perhaps you guys simply joined a server that wasn't connected to the hive? Also, I have experienced players hacking on DE 27 multiple times, so I'd recommend any players caring about their gear to stay off that server. It seems like the server's relatively high population attracts hackers like flies to shit.

DE 27 and DE2 are both HIVE connected, we just were on DE 27 because its 64 players server and we wanted some action^^ (and yeah it was laggy as hell)
