I’ve been playing for just over a year now, and in all that time, I’ve only had a handful of interactions with friendly players. It feels like almost everyone I run into is immediately hostile.

Am I just getting unlucky with the servers I’m joining, or is the Xbox community generally just "shoot first, ask questions never"? I’d love to actually team up or have some fun encounters, but it's getting a bit discouraging. What are your experiences?

These guys killed me twice within 1 hour. I thought there was something sus the first time, but I knew they were lag switching by the second time. These dudes built a base in Nabdor and are lag switching. The second video is posted on my profile for additional proof. I believe he is actually using god mode. He is missing his arms in both clips.

Definitely one of the most impressive bases I’ve come across in the wild. Perimeter fence. Living area with multiple tents, fortified staircases and windows right to to the top. A pedestrian bridge linking the two towers with multiple firing points.
Was empty when I found it so I can only assume some dormant player group built this in the heyday. Even several hundred meters away it dominates the area. A decent group would hold the entire region from there.
Found on Chernarus on Xbox server NWO. Outside of Serverograd.

Anyone know the story behind it?

EDIT

Guess I was the only one who didn’t know about the powers admins have on community servers 🤷🏻‍♂️

5 cars boiiii

I’m sure I’m not alone when I say I’ve been dying in very weird ways recently. but tonight persuaded me that the so-called “cheaters” are a real problem this patch. I was down near nadbor with a friend chasing some shots, eventually we get to town and I lay eyes on a very geared player so naturally we trail him to execute an ambush.
We isolate his location and my friend was waiting outside his door with a pristine/fully loaded vaiga, The geared fella rushes out and my friend empties his magazine on this guy. He should at least be unconned with how close my duo was, I push up after him to realize this geared player literally has no arms as he’s killing my duo. I shoot a shot of buckshot at him and unfortunately miss the center mass of my shot but no pellets connected whatsoever from my friend. (See video) We were not desynced, we had re-logged 15 minutes earlier and did nothing but run through the woods. Is this the downfall of dayz? Are cheaters going to be a **permanent** issue now?
This guy is blatantly running around in god mode. Mind you this is an Xbox only first person official server. What am I supposed to do?

Video of the guys that died with me

Back to community servers. Three of us were killed at the same time in different parts of the bunker.

Is it fun to cheat like this? I do not understand the accomplishment this must give someone.

Xbox series X, tried raiding a large(ish) base on community sahkal server.

Consistent 20-40 frames, rendering is terrible, lag spikes.

The game is BORDERLINE unplayable in its current state. Its honestly a shame, DayZ has so much potential. Sadly I think after like 15 years...this is as good as it's gonna get.

If you see this, I hope your life is miserable. Headshot the guy before this clip (ruined ski mask) and goes into god mode. Glad you’re having fun though.

Added the link to clip of the first shot hitting since everyone is an aiming expert all of a sudden. Blood clearly right around the dudes neck

Didn’t think I would post a hacker vid and start getting battered for “not being zeroed correctly”. So here is the first video. Y’all must not be hitting shots if you aim like you say you do.
