Shot through floor

[Pi]

I was in a city row house on the stairs between first and second floor. Heard a player entering the house.pull a gun and one shot me. The stairs look like solid concrete, is it possible to shoot through them?

Das war safe ein Cheater. Bei diesen Häusern kann man nicht durch Wände und Böden schießen und wenn doch, braucht man mit Sicherheit mehr als einen Schuss.

Depends on which house, and the layout of the stairs .. they might have just been able to see you, while you could not see them.

Same thing happened to me in one of the piano buildings where I heard a guy downstairs at one of the doors to get inside, heard a shotgun shot from downstairs, and died instantly

Absolutely no possible way he could've had any sort of sight line on me whatsoever, but it's just how it is on official servers

You know you can HEAR people moving around upstairs right?
Unless your ears are "painted on", Or to busy grooving to your tunes...
Why is hackers always the default position?

Maybe because you can't shoot through this floor... or because a shotgun has almost no penetration power. But hey... i guess that are just little obstacles for a true expert veteran.

Tell me how this guy's gonna shoot me when I'm crouching in the upstairs office room of the piano building while watching the stairs (third person) AND hearing the guy voice chatting from outside the building at the doors

This is also one of those piano buildings where there is no sight line into the office room from outside since it's surrounded by flat landscape and the only raised elevation is on the opposite side of the building. I also heard the shot from downstairs at the same location the voice chat was coming from and didn't see anybody standing in the room with me during the brief glimpse you get after you die

I may not have the hours that you do overall, but I can say with certainty that more of my hours are spent PvPing, so I know a lot about sight lines and 3rd person peeking and locating the source of audio in a 3D space, so I have 100% confidence in saying it was a cheater

This is why you can't judge solely off of hours in a game like DayZ because there's two completely opposite sides of the spectrum that someone can be drawing experience from

If you play a game like Siege, then people know that you're gonna have a PvP-based experience with the gameplay, so hours can be a VERY good gauge on someone's game knowledge. However, DayZ has the ability to be both PvE and/or PvP, so someone with 10k hours could have spent all 10k of those hours in PvE, all in PvP, or a mix of the two. In my case, I would say that 75% of my legacy play time (~1,300 hours) was spent PvPing or at least residing in a PvP environment (looting places that have confirmed enemies nearby) with the other 25% being in low pop/empty servers messing around with friends or gearing up to join a PvP server. That is 1,000 hours of PvP-based experience in this game specifically which means I have a lot of knowledge about what to and not to do when it comes to positioning, shooting, and locating sounds

So, where did i say it was possible to shoot through the floor?
Go on, show me..
And, what i said about hearing people move around in houses is 100%
true..
Tell me, why are you always trying to pick a fight with me?
Your not very good at it.. You know that.. right?
why can't you ever get your facts straight?
Why do you just make up?

:bambi:

hearing someone doesn't equate to shooting them through the floor tho,just because you can hear them doesn't mean you can shoot them or know their exact position so it makes no sense to mention hearing them unless your implying they can be shot also probs why he said that as the thread is about being shot through the floor not hearing someone

No, it's not really possible to 1-shot through concrete walls, in vanilla dayz at least. If you have a helmet and a vest, you have nothing to worry about "wallbangs". Watch WOBOs videos on bullet penetration.

I have a lot of anecdotal evidence on this. Someone once mag dumped me with full auto through the wall of the "land cementworks" building in the Max Quarry. They basically did no damage, even less than getting punched out by zombies.

It was silenced and the rate of fire was very fast, so I'm guessing LE-MAS.

Anyway, I took a LOT of hits and went uncon (probably hit my helmet too), but I was still at white health when I woke up, and only 1 bleed. I was on the lower roof outside, and they were inside the hall, so they didn't have line of sight when I was uncon.

Devs should do something! I so, so tired of playing this game and encounter a cheater. They always do the same, they encounter you and then they speak to you very loud and clear. Today I was inside a building without windows and when a was on the exit count down he kill me instantly.

There is no tool to report it. So they can do whatever they want to...

The level of anger you show in no less than 3 separate comments, and 3 separate posts in the span of 10 minutes, tells me everything I need to know ..

I simply answered your question

in the context of the SUBNORMAL's post and in the context of the whole thread.

Yes, IslaDeMalta's post is definitely filled with immature, undirected rage that mimics the actions done by a small child when they don't get what they want

Seriously, this guy's just stating pretty common stuff regarding cheaters:

- Tired of dealing with cheaters
- Cheaters like to be egotistical when they interact with you
- Provides an example (no matter how detailed or short) of an encounter he had
- Makes a valid point that this game has no report function

Also, if you were desperate enough to look into his post history for something to say, you'd see that he is from Argentina and English is most likely his 2nd language. I don't know if you know this, but non-native speakers tend to say things differently than native speakers because they didn't grow up with the language as well as having their native language conflicting with their 2nd language. In a lot of instances I've encountered when speaking with non-native English speakers, the way they say things can come off as offensive because, like any English speaker should know, English is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up language beyond the level of any other language in existence with thousands of special cases that go against defined rules of the language

TL;DR
Not only is Isla's post perfectly normal, but it isn't even phrased in a way that goes beyond standard outrage that any buyer of a product would have regarding dissatisfaction with the way things are done
