beerjedi 2 Posted August 11, 2012 Normally, I look for an official thread, and maybe this can be the single thread that everyone just lists the hacking events. In the last 4 days, every server we have played on has gotten hacked. I know the first rule in DayZ is don't get attached to your gear, so not an issue. Though losing it to someone cheating can be a bit bitter. But here are the events that have led to this post, with the cresndo of last nights events. In the last 3 days, only one server we played on did not have a hacker on it at the time. We went back and bam, hacker. Last night, was a bad night.US 338 - Hackers spawned at least a dozen plus buses, as there was a bus graveyard on Sniper Hill overlooking Electro. Hacker was teleporting and just gunning down folks. Our crew (including me) can attribute 3 deaths to him. We also unloaded 2 full clips of DMR into him, me with an m14 at point blank, and another with a DMR at only 20 meters.US 1103 - Hackers (2 of them) teleporting to players and greeting with "Goodday Govna!" and then they shoot you. Our group found a random Heli on the road, hackers spawned more in the air and started crashing them on top of each major city. Spawned in weapon crates, etc. US x - Can't remember the number unfortunately - Hacker teleporting and shooting players. Got me and a friend in the middle of a field near Cherno. Last Night:US 824 (Dallas) - Abort was disabled. PLayers being random teleported, and dancing. Managed to cause a char delete. I say that as I was able to kill Arma process before being teleported, but when i logged into the next server, i was stripped of all gear, and starting a new char. Not sure if i was killed, or not. but if so, it happened in 2 secs.US 425 (I think) - regeared - spread what was left of our high gear. Ran into a "robin hood" style hacker. High geared players being killed, new players being given gear into bags. And then killed.Atlanta 117 - Standard godmode teleport and killUS 74 - Standard Godmode teleport and killBy the end of the night, our team was done. We enjoy the game, but hackers are just killin' us left and right. We laugh at dying, usually enjoy the pvp encounters due to the tension the environment can give (stalking, being stalked, the unknown factor, etc) however the oh crud, i just got teleported again signal to everyone else to abandon is killin' the legitimacy and entertainment value of the game.

Lonrem 62 Posted August 11, 2012 Yup, there are script-kiddies in DayZ.We all know this. But it's just like playground bullies; ignore them, walk away, suck it up a bit. If they don't get to come on to the forums and see a post of their various exploits and people whining about them, some of them will eventually stop. Second, don't call them hackers, they're little script-kiddies who found a website with a program to run. No hacking required. Script-kiddies. So much more appropriate and accurate.Also, sucks that you run into so many hacker prone servers. Sorry, dude. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pure (DayZ) 7 Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) what these script kiddies don't know is they are downloading a back door trojan. GL to them when they get hacked later on and they have to format the computers. Prettty much any persoal info they have on the systems are compromised. This is how hackers work, give something out and hope for gold in them hills. Edited August 11, 2012 by Pure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DayZPvP.com 143 Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) Like was said above, don't call these guys hackers. They don't deserve that title.I wrote extensively about the subject here: Hacking, Scripting, and Griefing: A DayZ PrimerI am holding out hope that the end is near for those guys.
