nmford 0 Posted August 5, 2012 The game is unplayable until it is built on a new engine which isn't as easy to hack and sell exploits for to kids.For the 4th day running I've been unable to get through 24 hours without losing everything to a hacker. Whether it's some weird instadeath or they teleport everyone to 1 spot and machine gun everyone down, they essentially nuke the whole server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zexis 127 Posted August 5, 2012 The game? ARMA 2 is fully playable, what are you talking about?Oh wait, you mean the *mod*?This is important. I'm not being pedantic or turning to semantics; there is a distinct difference between the two. This mod owes nothing to you other than what Rocket dictates.That being said, it seems quite likely that this will one day be a standalone with a better engine behind it. But that day is not to come soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gotenks918 0 Posted August 5, 2012 No he meant the game. Due to Arma 2 being so easy to hack it translates to DayZ being easy to hack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But that day is not to come soon.I understand these exploits are in Arma 2 as well.Also, I never whined or complained I paid for something I'm not getting. I simply stated that the game is unplayable at the moment due to the widespread hacking. By the game I was obviously referring to the mod, there's no reason to get caught up on the details.

ApriL 28 Posted August 5, 2012 Arma 2 is a polished game, DayZ is an alpha mod? Six months from now there may still be hackers but there wont be as many. It is a slow process but we will see less hackers in the future as DayZ in developed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SadPanda (DayZ) 181 Posted August 5, 2012 Cool, maybe you should stay away from the mod and the forum until it's fixed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By the game I was obviously referring to the mod, there's no reason to get caught up on the details.I'm sorry, I'm just tired of seeing these threads. We all know that the hackers are a problem and that there isn't much to be done at the moment. I'd rather we just have a single "Report hacking incidents here" thread instead of clogging up the forum with the same complaints. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
