Potentially fake DayZ servers
Hello! I come here after having a conversation in the official DayZ discord a few days ago. There, a group of people complained that the Battlemetrics' server list and ranking for DayZ has recently become meaningless. In my opinion, everything was working well until August. However, recently a large number of potentially 'fake' servers have appeared.
We believe that these servers are fake because they share the same mods, and have virtually the same statistics. Let me show you three examples:
https://www.battlemetrics.com/servers/dayz/28650185?playerCount=7D
https://www.battlemetrics.com/servers/dayz/28650159?playerCount=7D
https://www.battlemetrics.com/servers/dayz/28650217?playerCount=7D
But it is not just three. There are many, many like this! That's why I think that the rankings are seriously distorted. Some people there said that they believe that this is because of two mods that redirect the traffic: DayZed and Namalsk Vanilla. I think that something should be done with these servers. Either delete them, or count them all as just one server?
In conclusion, I would like to ask Battlemetrics to review all the DayZ servers that share the same statistics. Something does not feel right at the moment. Thanks a lot in advance for your time! 🙂
