Getting screwed over by other players cheating in H1Z1 isn’t a fun feeling, even though the game is still in early testing and has many more resets before it goes live. But it is fun to watch cheaters try to get something for nothing, only to fail hilariously. So the most recent developer post on Reddit explaining how the game is dealing with noclippers floating through doors into secure areas is a riot — at least for those of us on the right side of the rules.
Essentially, when the doors close on a secured area, the game takes a snapshot of the people who are inside when it closes. Since there’s no way that anyone else could get inside according to the game rules, as long as the door remains shut, only the people who were inside when the doors closed are able to loot containers, damage other players, and so forth. So cheaters might be able to float through the door, but they’ll find their efforts inside stymied by the fact that the game doesn’t acknowledge their presence inside. See? Hilarious!
