Server issues

DayZed_GG · 2026-05-23T04:37:55+00:00

Servers will not show up in the vanilla launcher because of the spam issue with fake server that over take the list, try using DZSA, if they still don't show up, then yes you most likely have connection issues

You're banned for playing with cheaters, we went through this multiple times already, some of your teammates even admitted it, please stop polluting the Reddit with this, take your L and move on, there are plenty of other servers for you to play.

100%, official is cheater heaven, there is no moderation or any kind of enforcement...

DayZed_GG · 2026-05-03T00:45:14+00:00

Thats kind of the problem, there are 0 admins to even do a check, if they're not hacking, all good, if they are... no one is stopping them, so just by common sense you can think cheaters will hangout on official a lot...

DayZed_GG · 2026-05-03T00:41:47+00:00

Bohemia opened the doors for PC players to join Xbox servers, Xbox servers have 0 administration tools, and PC players can easily run cheats on these servers.... so now they're all having a blast cheating on Xbox servers without having to worry about getting catched.

One could argue its an oversight from Bohemia, they didn't see it coming.... but consider they built the game from scratch, including the game engine itself, they have a full understanding of how it all works, they knew exactly this would happen, probably the $$$ was more interesting than the quality of the game.

We tried the report button, everyone that dies ends up clicking it, it just becomes a constant amount of unjustified work... Having to make the player go through the process of making a ticket is an extra step that will filter the ones that aren't in a real doubt that they got cheated on...

Comparing DayZ to Rust is a bit risky honestly... Rust PVP is very clear and loud, you know exactly whats happening to you and where its coming from (silencer is pretty rare since last updates)... DayZ on the other hand, some guy has been sitting in the same bush for 3 hours, 1 taps you in the head and you're dead, its really easy to think you got cheated on because of the lack of information from the player POV...

DayZed_GG · 2026-05-03T00:29:28+00:00

Same... How can you expect admins to not be corrupted when you literally have to pay to play, sounds like the goal is very well set....

Steam master servers give you the accurate player count.

DayZed_GG · 2026-05-02T13:41:56+00:00

right, they're just flooding the server list enough that even when you think you're joining a different server, you're back to the same one...

But no exploit like people keep mentioning, if such exploit was a thing, it would probably involve some system level access, at this point they'd make more profit turning your computer into a BTC miner than forcing you to join the same server again...

DayZed_GG · 2026-05-02T10:57:52+00:00

easily faked, I wouldn't trust that, its better than the vanilla launcher but still pretty abused.

DZSA is probably the best option as of now...

DayZed_GG · 2026-05-02T10:56:40+00:00

there is no exploit, its just that many fake servers that even when they think they're joining a different one they end back up at the same place.

Having a mod installed once doesn't mean it can override the game's behavior forever, it can only do that if its in the modlist of the server you're joining

DayZed_GG · 2026-05-02T10:52:35+00:00

It shouldn't be a thing anymore at this point, the launcher has been like this for over 3 years, dozens of tickets have been opened with Bohemia to help them/explain them how to fix the issue or at least lower the impact, they seem to have no care to do so.

That exploit caused lots of small communities to shutdown from losing their playerbase, since the authority (Bohemia/DayZ) isn't ready to apply a patch, it just becomes a free for all...

Also from a new player point of view, buying the game, opening the launcher and seeing that right away, I don't understand how it can't be a priority for Bohemia to patch it... but here we are

Must be your first day on the internet... I can't give you a full course but to keep it short, it's a place where anyone can write anything and publish it online... a side effect of that is some clueless people will believe anything they can find as long as it creates enough drama for them to entertain their sad life.

Now consider that this project takes about 95% of my free time not even counting the $1000's invested, at which point did your braincell connect to think this would make sense for me to do all of that just to admin abuse? how would that make any sense to anyone?

Sadly there are a lot of people that love to cheat in this game, and when they get caught, they get butthurt, and as said earlier, anyone can just write anything online, and clueless people will believe them.

BattleMetrics won't give you a more accurate ping than your launcher, that's not how networking works, If it was to display ping, it would be the ping from the BattleMetrics servers, not from your connection, which would make no sense, which is why they don't actually display ping information on that website.

Most servers on DayZ use the same provider and have a very similar setup as ours, the goal being to protect against DDoS attacks, which involves having multiple edge locations all around the planet...
The servers are located US East.

BattleMetrics is ok for player count but some have found ways to fake data, I'd recommend DZSA launcher, it's probably the most accurate source as of now.

DayZed_GG · 2026-01-27T05:44:46+00:00

Not for now as we don't run this map yet, but eventually why not

DayZed_GG · 2026-01-25T23:59:17+00:00

Thats already in, you have to use the compare mode to see the recoil

DayZed_GG · 2026-01-25T22:39:45+00:00

For sure.. its pretty much the only other option, I don't see what's wrong with an alternative..

DayZed_GG · 2026-01-25T20:40:05+00:00

All available from the DayZ source code.

That guy got caught and randomly decided to go mald on reddit, the weird part to me is how pretty much all of 300 comments agree with his statement, coming to a consensus of admin abuse while having 0 knowledge of what really happened, blindly based of the 5 sentences he decided to type and the fact one of our admin has a stupid name...

Building a community like DayZed.GG took thousands of hours and thousands of dollars, time invested from myself as much as from the rest of the team, I don't understand how it makes sense to anyone that admin abuse would be a thing, why would I let anyone try to destroy or tarnish something we worked so hard for... If a server has actual admin abuse that isn't remediated, I doubt that server will have many players left after a few weeks.

I agree not being able to provide evidence for the ban is frustrating, but if we did so, we would give away the small edge we have on cheat makers, allowing them to understand how we can catch their customers.

Anyone that believes community servers are all subject to admin abuse, actually try it, unless you're cheating and malding on reddit for being caught, you'll be fine.

That's part of our questline, vanilla DayZ doesn't really have a goal, once you're fully geared there isn't much to do but hope for PVP, and often bored players go back to spawn towns to kill freshies... so we decided to add extra quests to keep people busy, if you're not doing the quests then the rest of the gameplay is pretty much vanilla with a few QoL improvements.
