Hackers are using poisoning attacks to collect data
New, NormalPublic

Description

So I played on official for over 500 hours that had been my total dayz experience. I have moved on to a community server now because the official server experience basically ruins the game. You cannot bury anything without it being found and you cannot build a base anywhere without it being crashed and raided within 24 hours. More likely 12. How do hackers know where everything on the map is? Same answer as why did we get kicked constantly on official servers. They are using an ETTERCAP like man in the middle attack to collect data. Every time you are kicked they are intercepting the data when you respawn. This allows them to locate every feature on the map by intercepting the data stream. So if you figure out what IP's are injecting the poisoning to cause the kicks and ban those IP ranges, consistently. You will be a long ways towards stopping all these "Undetectable Cheats" Which make the game unplayable and enjoyable.

Steps To Reproduce

Join any official server/ get kicked constantly. Put a combo lock on any gate with some loots inside, anywhere on the map. Build a base, Bury some prime loot. See how long it takes to get busted or discovered.

Spend 2-4 weeks collecting materials. Build a base 3 layers deep, log off for 4-8 hours. Come back to a destroyed base... Or catch them in the act, sneak up on the blind side of your own base and get double tapped by some invisible person...
