How to report people?
We played a game before, ran at enemy who i dont know if he was admin or not. His hunter get shot with rpg, explodes, he survives that. Okay, fishy but ok, next i shot him couple of times with katiba, teammate couple of times with sniper and another empties a whole mag at him. Crawles away in the middle of an airfield, he coudnt but okay, and than comes back with full on armed attack helly in 1 minute. When confronted he tell he took humming bird to his base and took a armed helly.
Sorry for a rant but its funny to see what he managed to survive. So how do i report people?

You cant and you wont be able to either i imagine. Cheaters will be banned from servers and global banned for all servers via battleeye. The fact is if it was an admin your out of luck its their server and tbh this would only happen on wasteland. Yje best bet is to join the servers team speak and talk to an admin and they will instantly ban the person if many complain. They wont be able to get on the server again and once full release their account is basically banned and they need to purchase arma 3 to play multiplayer (only if global battleeye ban)

Most if not 90% of arma players are legit mature players but there are certain game modes that attract a certain age group and maturity level.

Yes, wasteland and CoD wrecked Arma. There is no possibility of trolling/hacking ever pre-dating these games or mods.


That's sarcasim, by the way. People will be people, and EVERY game (especially on PC) has hackers and trolls. Dont make Arma out to be majestic rarity in the market that was untouched by dbags before CoD or Steam was invented. Like f off already. My server browser is FULL of coop servers, FULL of people enjoying it. You're going to tell me those ten wasteland servers, two stratis lifes and one game of domination wrecked your experience? Please grow up and get real.

Totally right. People don't seem to realise we had hackers and trolls long before DayZ or Wasteland. When there was a rush of new players due to DayZ there was a huge influx of the trolls and hackers but there was also a huge influx of decent players too, gotta take the good with the bad.

As for the threads topic, if you are on a server and believe the admin is cheating find another server. If it's a regular player that you believe is cheating then report it to the admins. They may or may not do anything about it and if the outcome is not what you wanted then either shrug it off and keep playing or again find another server.

there should take an example from games like AMericas Army when it comes to reporters. I never see hacking there and any griefers always get voted kicked. im some ways arma 3 never advanced.

I believe there is a vote-to-kick feature but it's up to the server owners if they will enable it or not. Servers can have it that if someone teamkills then the victim can either choose to forgive or punish, punishing them can get them kicked. Basically it all comes down to the people who have the server.

Ok, so mind sharing your wisdom? Yeah problems with hackers are in all games, just look at battlefield at begining. But is there an option to report people to get them globaly banned? It really shoud be an option. Dont care about that server and will not play there anymore, but after a couple of hourse and finally having a team od 6 people that can go after objectives only to get raped in a minute by some tard

-No theres not an option to get them globally banned.
-No it shouldn't be an option.
-Get over it.

As has been stated, the servers are run by the individual server owners / groups. They have the say and the right to choose who is and who is not banned on their servers. Take a look at the price of renting an Arma game server, it ain't cheap that's for sure and I know if I paid that kind of price I sure as hell would want a say in who plays and who doesn't play on my server. We all run into pricks when gaming, just forget about it and move on because as maddening as it can be it really isn't worth getting chewed up about.
