FrostDMG 398 Posted August 14, 2012 Alright, came back after a month of absence, and boom. Every server I go into there are hax0rs - everywhere.Hacked tents, vehicles, skins, invis, godmode, teleports, thunderdome, ammo boxes...I shit you not, there have been at least 2 hackers in every server I've played in.In one server there were 5 tent cities, 20+ tents each, all haxed weapons, on another there were 5 flying hueys in the server...Seriously, everyone is getting geared from the hacked tents and just sniping in Elektro. What little encouragement there was to explore the map is gone.Tent duping, infinite food/water bug, ammo glitch still works... Sorry, but right now I cannot play this anymore, this game is probably a ton of fun with hacks, but without them I cannot be bothered - seriously. Gear is now meaningless - oh you've found an AS50? Remember how happy you were to find one of those rare fuckers in 1.7.1.5? Now it's just "oh I found ANOTHER AS50, guys...".I really wanna give DayZ a chance still - I love the idea and the gameplay that was offered in 1.7.1.5 - I even think helis should stay out of the game - I did not see one hacker in 200 hours in 1.7.1.5, now I see them on hourly basis - if they are playing stealthy there might be even more.:( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
terex 322 Posted August 14, 2012 (edited) Avoid Elektro? Safe to say 90% of the hackers are near the coast and around the popular areas.. The hacked gear and vehicles I am fine with, more people with gear to kill and bury, more vehicles to blow up while they are driving. The shitty hackers are the ones that nuke servers, teleport you, teleport behind you after you killed them, god mode, invisible people and other grieving hacks and scripts. When I roam around Elek I encounter hackers all the time but once you leave that area they are pretty rare.. Edited August 14, 2012 by terrex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sixbarns 217 Posted August 14, 2012 Unplayable? I played for 4 hours straight last night and only ran into one hacker. I played a couple hours this morning and had a blast. No hackers. Nothing. I guess it's just luck?Sounds like those servers have some shitty admins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sp86 508 Posted August 14, 2012 The forum mods really need to disable pictures.CuntMaybe they should disable crybitching too. Look, the game is an alpha mod for a game that was designed to be client and server script driven, that makes it extremely vulnerable. If you didn't know this going in, well, too bad. Buyer Beware. If you can't have fun with it in spite of the problems then the name you're slinging more aptly fits you, which makes sense since you toss it about so callously. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rollonio 54 Posted August 14, 2012 Try playing on 1st person only EXPERT & HARDCORE Servers. Far less hackers there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I played for 4 hours straight last night and only ran into one hackerI realise the point you were trying to make but this just makes the game seems silly. As it should. Playing for 4 hours and only running into 1 hacker would among any decent game out there be ridiculous. I understand it is alpha but they are saying there is next to no way of fixing this and the OP has a perfectly valid point. The devaluation of all gear in game is a HUGE hit to this game as gear gathering is one of teh core mechanics of a survival game such as this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
