I have just bought the Alpha version on steam and have been getting used to the game. This last round, I spent a lot of time getting great gear, then I was killed by somebody that was server hopping. I shot at the guy and he logged off. He then went to another server, flanked my position, and then went back on my server.
This to me is game breaking and makes players not want to play dayz. This issue needs to be fixed, otherwise this is not a survival game, but a "who can abuse the mechanics the most" game.
Please let me know how this will be resolved, and I will look forward to playing this game with my friends.
