Hackers are slowly pushed out

[Serious Stan 202]

I did an early flame about the uselessness of battleeye not too long ago, i blame them for a reason. And that was alone about their responsebility to keep cheats away from this game... Anticheat as they are.

Now after 3 updates and i witnessed around 500 global bans i must say!

I belive in battleeye now. I havnet been killed by a hacker in a week and i am really enjoying dayZ!

Thanks for the updates. They are working!

Do not get too complacent, they are slowly getting weened out.

I seen some chat spam come up on the side of screen, I decided to log out. Just when the whole server was killed.

Haven't had a hacker death in a while, or at least one I thought was a hacker. Playing only on private hives.

Ah good. Now i only have to worry about the bandits

I play on public hives, set battleye required to: Yes

even if its 30-40 players on the servers i have yet to see a hacker in a week.

I agree I haven't seen a hacker in a good few days so either the bypass isn't working or they're trying to troll the private hive players, on that note I did notice or got the impression that they moved over to the newer maps because a lot of people moved over to them.

For all the grief Battleye get they've made some great progress. I've noticed less hacking publicly and privatly.

Awesome! It had gotten to the point where I was playing private hives with <10 players cause it was the only way I could play for 10 minutes without being teleported in to the sky, lol.

I've moved up to private hives with about 25 players in the last week or so and haven't seen any hackers yet. I guess I'll give high pop a try again. ;D

They still have to deal with the illegal items problem, i doubt they will wipe the hive but at least they should add a remover into the mission that detects and removes items that should not be there in the first place...they already have the list.

[pvtjace 37]

Iv noticed zero hackers in 2 weeks now. All public servers..Seen constant bans, its insane!

[Venzire 76]

I'm looking forward to this new injection detection system. :)

And tampered game memory detection.

I'm all for some update that removes the illegal weapons BUT if it removes my radio I'm gonna be F'in pissed

Also have not been teleported and instantly killed in just over a week. This is pretty crazy and I was waiting for a thread on it, but are we just goading on the hacker cunts to come back? I see people get global bans all the time, in fact the Battleeye feed is quite immersion breaking in itself, there are so many ban messages. Has the grief hacking only stopped because they are banned or has there been some change in that arma patch? If there has been a change and the game's more secure, battle eye should come in here and post a freaking topic about that. maybe some hundreds of thousands come back to the public hive . glitches are also gone for me

[Maniacmike (DayZ) 24]

Great news!

[DieBrotmafia 79]

I might just start playing again.

[joeoblong@yahoo.com 614]

Wait? What!? Ah damn it! Now we like BattlEye!? What do I do with this effigy and pitchfork?

[spankerfist 44]

2 updates when i played yesterday. Im starting to like battleye

[Smythes 0]

I specifically made an account, just now, after seeing this thread - I too have not been killed (teleported/shot) by hacker in about 2 weeks also.

It means we can start moving on to more populated servers with more of a purpose :)

DayZ is a great concept and it's great tp think we know might be able to enjoy it as intended.

Yeah man only played on the most full servers even during the worst of the hacking so I really noticed it just switch off like a light just over a week ago. It used to be 100% guaranteed I would get killed out the blue by a hacker. It has not happened once lately. It really has been safe to play on jam packed servers for over a week, just seems like many people haven't realised that yet

ive encountered a few everyday (but i play on maybe 20 different servers in a day) but i can vouch for the number dropping in total.

Great stuff !

Started playing again a few days ago and was amazed how many global bans that were being issued. I really was like "wow".

One more step closer to stand alone release... :)

Is there somewhere you can see the number of X total global bans?

Sorry the rookie question but BE's homepage dosent give much info ;)

BattlEye do an announcement in-game every so often.

[Taiphoz 95]

I have to say my major issue with the game right now is combat loggers and people that jump from a server while in combat to move behind you on another server and then log back in, or ghosting.

I think they need to make it if you fire your gun or take fire and then you alt f4, it should just kill you on the spot and spill your guts all over the floor, better yet the server should drop a bomb on their face.

BattleEye has not captured all the hackers, but in saying this has hit a majority of script kiddies.
