DE and other active Zers, what's your take on servers that are exclusively first-person view only? Not having played the game I don't have any experience but I imagine that it would be a lot more immersive and challenging.

the problem with DayZ...
hacking. Enemy #1 easy... this is the gayest part of the game.
Duping: this got incredibly out of control..so much that there were more AS50's in cherno than lee enfields
Combat Disc'ing: another ridiculous aspect of the game that ruined it for a lot of people.
Server Hopping to change position: Like engaging in a fire fight, logging off, and then reappearing 500m from where u were, behind your target.
Server Hopping to loot: this was another joke... going to a certain spot and server hopping until you found something you wanted.
Glitching/Blocking/Artifacting: Barbed wire made the Airfields/Cities all impossible to loot... because people were spam abusing barbed wire/tank traps and these would A. Block you in, B. Promote server hopping to change position, C. Make areas impossible to loot, because of Artifacting ruining the screen...

IDK. Personally i wish that character information could be stored server-side... so people couldnt do stuff like Bring gear over from one server to the next. People are always going to abuse this, as long as they can hop between server's retaining all of their gear/the gear they find. I don't see a better solution to most of these problems without doing this... make server hopping impossible, because it strips your gear when you do it, dont let people to change their location with server hopping, but even if you strip their gear when they log in to the 2nd server, that would also fix it.

Some sort of system where if you log into X server, all previous gear is wiped. But when you log out, you still have your gear, and when you log back into X server, you keep your gear. But as soon as you log into Y server, your character is wiped. So now if you join Y, then quit and join X, you will be a fresh spawn with no gear, not allowing people to abuse server hopping

Most of this will be fix in SA with the new "mmo" server / client side architecture and they will work with valve anti-cheat system which will make the hacker job lot harder and less common. Most of the hacking / duping hacks are only cause because the client can run scripts files.



Private Hive works like this atm. Its in their design to have many server to use the same character. Many private hive dont allow you to server hope within their hive (like bmrf), you have a timer of 5 or 10 minutes before you can switch server.

From your post, I am assuming you havent touch dayz mod for severals week, if not months because many of the stuff you are pointing as flaws are already fix in the Mod, let alone the Standalone.
