How many hackers nowadays

[Scarlet_Blade 12]

I haven't played DayZ for about 30-45 days... quit cause of school / too many hackers/script kiddies/supers, and so forth...

Is the game still completely infested with them? same with D/C'ers, cod kiddies, etc?

[terex 322]

It seems to be happening less often or very rare.. Then again, I am only playing on private hives and Lingor lately.. Not on the regular hive.

[Scarlet_Blade 12]

What's the deal with Lingor / private hives?

Did Rocket give in and kinda let people do whatever? When I was playing it was illegal, and you couldn't lock your servers on the main hive, etc.

it's a little calmer than before, battleye sent a new wave of bans out the other day.

What would you consider calm?

When I was playing it was common to get killed/tele'd by a hacker 2-3 times a day. :<

See I think since the BE wave of bans its been worse for me, i've gone from being able to survive a few weeks and get 20-30 kills on average, to lasting no more than a day and lucky to get one murder, all circumstances where i died felt suspicious. It could be that players have gotten far more cunning than me but i doubt that they must of all been cheaters XD

My past three (EDIT: Make that four D:) characters have been killed via hacker. I really haven't seen it getting any better, but I can't put down the game...

With players changing tactics to now evade scripters as best they can aswell as anti camping etc, things are changing and evolving, you just gotta stay one step ahead and maybe change the way you play to gain the upper hand and survive a bit longer

If they the hackers kick you, YOU KICK EM RIGHT BACK!

...and you join another server.

[Scarlet_Blade 12]

Interesting... might log back on and give the game another go for a while...

Thanks all for the help :D

hundreds of thousands. I havent been in a server in 5 days that hasnt had a hacker. Thankfully they seem to be immensely retarded and i managed to kill quite a few. They spawn in AS-50 ASWs (not available in DayZ), they spawn in hundreds of satchels and blow up entire cities, they teleport, they make it so that they cannot possibly be killed (ive pumped 3 rounds into a guy at point blank with the 50 cal and get still came up and shot me).

Its honestely disgusting. There are too many hackers now to take the game seriously anymore. Why play if someone is going to play against you unfairly.

I think I was killed by a hack today, thats the first time in 2 weeks so i think its getting a little better. ;)

[resoula 23]

Not only were 2000 bans handed out in one day but Battleye recently had a secret update which led to a large amount of hackers being banned recently, bout two days ago.

[sostronk 334]

Proportionally there are probably more. But theres less thunderdoming and script killing entire servers going on. More teleporting and ESP hacks.

[Bruin (DayZ) 5]

Earlier today a whole server (50+) all got teleported to the coast and raped by a light machine gun, had no idea what the hell was going on at first, just cutting through a forest with my CZ550 and then I'm on the coast with 50 other people getting sprayed at. First time that's happened to me ever on a Cherno server though but I've only been playing a few weeks and that's been switching between Lingor and Cherno.

I eat hackers for breakfast havent seen some in my last two weeks of gaming only one kid in lingor he flew over me with a helo I shot his sorry ass out of the thing and he teleported to me again while in a hospital my akm chewed him to shreds so he teleported to me on last time and used black magic to break my bones and left the server. I was in the hospital so i gladly crawled over to a supply box grabbed a morphine and was on my way. Steak and Potatoes 3 hacker 0

If anyone needs cheering up just hang around in the ban appeals area and watch the excuses roll in. Currently the most popular post is "my brother/cousin used a hack when I wasn't looking, please can you unban me?".

[Steak and Potatoes 13480]

I would have said my mom was using my pc its more reasonable

[Welch (DayZ) 756]

There're over 9,000 hackers, that I know...

Thats exactly what i was going for

[Bonehead3535 105]

got killed instantly every time i logged into populated servers

[straw 5]

I get killed by a hacker at least once a day if I play more than 3-4h, but this doesnt annoy me as much as ghosters and all the faggots running around with as50TWS. Today my team went to cherno as I saw a group of 3 guys in ghillies. I took my m24 out and watched what they are doing. One of them dropped his back pack and they then all picked it up, came back and pulled as50TWS out. Just before I could shoot them down all 3 disconnected. I met my team of four in a barn and as we were checking if team TWS is back we saw all the zombies in the fields. We spotted 4 guys in the fields all had as50TWS (this beige scope is too obvious) we started exchaging fire. As soon as I hit the first guy with my m24, alt+f4 ^^

- we dropped 3 of them as we noticed one guy in front of the barn spawning there.

He got killed and another guy spawned in the barn (genius) with us. We killed him too and lost 2 guys in the firefight. We thought all right the air is clean we waited around 10 mins for the other guys to come back to us. We checked the dead guys and all had as50TWS (what else) since then we renamed cherno into TWS City. As we left the barn there was people spawning or teleporting all around us, shooting at us taking again 2 guys out.

Me and one guy run into another barn to leave the server as one of our team said he's in balota and already being shot at by as50.

We run there and shoot a guy under a tree with a AS50TWS again. We checked his name and it was the first guy we shot at the cherno barn firefight.

A few minutes later (yes we were expecting his team to spawn behind us) we changed position and saw people spawning in, behind the snipers position around 200m . They were ghosting as every team was we engaged today.

That was way more annoying then just being teleported into the sea. You think you are fighting a legit firefight but people just dc & reposition them selfs while others keep you in postion by supressive fire.

BTW total kill count of TWS douchebags today was 9 confirmed. There were way more who shot AS50 but we didnt get to loot the bodies so TWS is not conifirmed but I'm 99% sure they had it.

oh and the favorite secondary seems to be g36 SD or C or camo and such these days.

ps. saw the monky monitor a few times today.....thats a pile of bs too..
