I just recently came back to DayZ in hopes that this cheater situation has been dealt with, and in all fairness it is better than it was several months ago, but it's still far from perfect. I understand that it is hard to deal with cheaters, after all all games have issues with cheaters, however it is important to remember that DayZ, unlike other games, requires a ton of time in order to get decent gear, and losing all that to a cheater just makes players demotivated and eventually quit the game. Dying to a cheater after 3 hours of traveling and looting truly makes me think about all my life decisions that made me get to this point. I know it's unlikely that anyone at Bohemia will hear me out, after all to you I'm probably just another fag that's complaining about cheaters, but have you guys considered doing what other competitive games are doing about cheaters? For example, some games use multiple anti-cheats, some even make their own, some have an report system where trusted players themselves can investigate reports (so no need to dedicate any of your people to check reports) and so on. In theory there could also be a simple algorithm implemented where players who hit several, long-distance headshots in a row get flagged/banned. I don't really know what you guys have considered and what's already been ruled out, but please, don't give up. DayZ as a game is truly beautiful and unique, especially compared to other games, and solving this issue would make the immersion truly unbeatable. You really can't be immersed in a game where you can blame your death on anything else other than your own stupidity.
