Fix duping, and wipe characters...

[Reaven1911 48]

I think Rocket should fix duping and wipe out everyone's character data, and I know this is a cOLD topic but still...

How i think you can fix duping is simple, every time someone puts in, or takes out or drops and item in either the ground, a players backpack, a dead players inventory, tent or vehicle the players inventory saves their inventory right after they put in or take something.

if it meant away with duping I would be okay with my character getting wiped, this game needs more people running with makarov's and enfields, not AS50's and M107's.

priority 1. Fix the hacking.

priority 2. Whipe everything and start from beginning.

Fixes.

The rarity of weapons will go back and the game will become challenging again.

Rocket can't fix hacking in DayZ in it's current state, on this engine. He's stated it MANY times. He needs to work on what makes the game enjoyable right now, and plan for the future.

Just gonna have to deal with it until the standalone comes out and then hopefully everything will be fixed.

no point in wiping till standalone

stop mking these threads. wiping the datadase is not a solution. Dupers and hackers will just dupe and hack weapons again in a few days after the wipe. Just wait for the standalone to come out

Oh, dumbass idea topic thread 78963432421134324-542345245213432.

Btw, why is everyone just now realizing this is a horrible idea? Could've sworn a week ago this had a solid 10 pages of support.

I see someone can't read.

and people are expecting a bit much from the stand alone, dayz will still be restricted by arma 3's engine.

Who said the standalone would use the ARMA 3 engine?

you'd fix duping by implementing item ID on every item in the database. but as has been pointed out, that's easier said than done, and probably not possible in this alpha. it's also not worth bothering with. i'd be horrified if effort was expended on creating a better experience for players of an alpha mod, when that effort could have been expended making the final product better.

i think we have to accept that the devs have taken this mod about as far as it can go. the announcement of standalone is, i'm afraid, the death-knell of any more serious and concerted effort on this mod.

the only thing that mitigates against this attitude is that, right now, most of us would agree that the player experience isn't being tested on this mod anymore - by which i meant that the devs cannot use the player experience on this mod to gauge the experience on a stable, hack-free, dupe-free standalone, because dayz becomes, daily, entirely the opposite of that.

we are no longer playtesting dayz.
