FIX. THE. MOTHER. FUCKING. HACKER. PROBLEMS.

FIX. THE. MOTHER. FUCKING. GRAPHIC. GLITCHES.

That is all.

[Chiromishi 28]

Well.

As we need more of these complaints that barely do anything to help with the problem. Good job mate!

Could probably give some names to hackers and their IPs to help...

[Dancing.Russian.Man 1631]

DayZ devs can't do shit to the hacking problem.

GET. RID. OF. FUCKING. BATTLEYE.

[MoronToTheKore 57]

This is literally a thread on this exact same topic two spaces down as of this post.

[foxdie_01 121]

Hopefully the devs find these threads as annoying as the players find the hackers.

[Gogster (DayZ) 626]

Ban hackers.

Ban people making threads about hackers.

Ban everyone.

Except me.

[Arseassin 10]

The more posts about it, the more oppressive the tone is for the developers.

Hacking literally makes this game unplayable and unenjoyable. The dev's are losing players by the thousands every week. There is no single game period that has this large of a hacker:legit ratio, and in a game where some of the best satisfaction comes from surviving for days on end, hackers can pose a serious threat to literally the entire community, which in turn takes money out of the dev's pockets.

[Legacy (DayZ) 1091]

Normally I lock these threads. But I'll let this one live so people stop making the same thread for 3 days.

There is very little that DayZ Developers can do, hackers developer a bypass for BattlEye and then use that so they can cheat on our servers. They get banned anyways but they just buy a new cd-key.

Go bitch at BattlEye if you believe it's such an issue.

[Sticker704 121]

There are 3 threads on hackers on the same page. Why do you think that you feel the need to add to the count?

Then how about posting your complaints on the Arma II [edit: or Battleye] forum, not DayZ's. Rocket needed a game engine to test out a revolutionary game concept and this happened to be a good fit. The hacking problems are an unfortunate side effect of using this engine and cannot be remedied without taking resources away from the standalone. We're alpha testing a proof of concept FFS. What the devs need is contructive criticism of features which have been included in the mod which can then be assessed and taken into the standalone. Spending time criticising features of the mod's game engine is utterly pointless, unless you have a valid and proven reason for thinking this will also going to be an identical issue in the finished game - Game not mod.

If people choose not to take part in play testing because they are frustrated they're not getting finished-build quality at alpha stage, and for free, then what's the point in anyone trying out new ideas?

Go bitch at BattlEye if you believe it's such an issue.

If we believe its such an issue? Excuse me sir, but do you even play dayz?

The game has nearly become a terrible version of battlefield with zombies. Everyone spawns in Cherno/Elektro, and deathmatches it out. The food chain starts at the top with all of the AS50 wielding SUPER LEGIT kids (because the AS50, Ghillie, and ALL survival tools are sooooo god damned common that of course 9 people in the hills of Elektro have them), and whittles down to the chumps running around with hatchets providing some sort of enjoyment for the scripting fat kids in the hills.

Whats the point of even trying to survive when you know you will either die to a teleporter, get thunderdomed, or godmode/invisied by a nerd with unlimited ammo and time on his hands?

Even if you do manage to survive your first 2 hours - you find a tent, hell, maybe even a vehicle or two, set up camp in some uber secret place that no one would ever find.. Except that at some point between you logging off and back on, a hacker has - SHOCKINGLY ENOUGH - flattened your tents and destroyed your vehicles leaving you stranded miles in the wilderness, only to run hours to a city and probably die on the way or as soon as you get there by - you guessed it - another hacking piece of shit.

This game is literally getting assraped by hackers right now, its like that episode of South-Park where the new Indiana Jones movie comes out and they keep seeing him getting raped by the producers.... The DayZ team, as well as the community, are getting raped by hackers... Dont play it off like its some uncommon thing.

"Go bitch at BattlEye if you believe its such an issue." no issue here AMIRITE?

You know what, you're right.

Let me go over here and test out some of these featur---- Oh shit, just got thunderdomed.

Quack

Yes yes, I know of the thunderdomers, invisibility hackers, invincible satchel charging, you ame it. Point is... Posting on DayZ forums will not help, you need to either get in contact with BattlEye or BiS (Arma II) who can control the situation a lot more then DayZ Developers can.

[kander 80]

As an addendum to my post. All posts about hacking should just be edited to

"Idea for standalone: try to minimise hacking"

Because that's all that can possibly be achieved by this debate. These debates. These endless debates.

[Dancing.Russian.Man 1631]

GET. RID. OF. FUCKING. BATTLEYE.

As long as DayZ stays as a mod, that's impossible.

Standalone will not have BattleEye, I guarantee you that.

Rocket himself has said in an interview that he has hoped that the mod would die down a little, because they simply cannot keep up with the community.
