Cheaters
Feedback, NormalPublic

Description

When are you going to take serious actions on players who cheats and destroys this game?
I´m talking about dupers, lag switchers, ddos:ers, etc etc
Not only is it unfair and boring, it also affects the servers and can get the game to crash if you get close to alot of duped stuff.
You should just console ban these players.

I suppose you are thinking, "If we do that we lose to many players" but I know for a fact thats wrong. 80% of the serious DayZ players are quitting because its pointless to play against those cheaters.
You build a base for two months just to see it getting blown up in 10 minutes by dupers that has duped 400 granades and sprays your base with granade louncher.
Or you fight them just so see a player lag switch and kill you.
I can give you so many names of those players if you only would take action.

I provided video evidence of cheaters last year, but my ticket was not even commented on. Unfortunately, because of dupers, there is no point in building anything at all, I built a lot of walls, but copying explosives gives them the ability to destroy any wall in 5 minutes. There is no point in even hiding boxes for storing loot, because when someone runs past, microlags happen (FPS drops) and the person understands that loot is hidden nearby, and easily finds it. cheaters used to live closer to the north and if you dont go to military bases, you could find an interesting adventure. now cheaters started building near coast, especially places with water and police stations. I know a lot of people who are now rare guests in the game because of this.

Worth to mention is that I am not just some beginner who whines because I get killed. I have over 6500 hours in this game and it happens at least once a week if you have a large base.
An easy fix would be to just remove the Granade Launcher and the Plastic Explosions. Let them dupe granades and M4 how much they like if it´s impossible to stop dupers.
And then I agree with some other player who wrote a ticket. Start a group which are allowed to ban cheaters. Or take action and ban them yourself every time you get proof.

This is by far one of the greatest games ever created, but with all the cheaters you lose alot of players who would play this game 24/7, like me. :)
