What are people complaining about:
Hackers are going to be horrible once the game goes free to play:
I tend to look at this the same way I look at Planeside 2. I didn’t see many hackers on there and so far the banning inside H1Z1 hasn’t been too bad, I still haven’t come across a blatant hacker but I have seen people post videos of them. I’m actually looking forward to seeing how they’re actually going to handle them and if they’ll change anything.

We should be able to dupe while it’s in alpha and there are hackers:
Mind you this is not what lots of people are complaining about but once I read this my mind instantly blew up with how stupid this was… Literally. Allowing people to exploit the game does not send a positive message to follow the rules to anyone, especially if they allow it then suddenly don’t. Do you think anyone will stop? No. Will it stop hackers? No. Will it just ruin the game for everyone playing the game as intended… Yes.

Bases are useless as people can just glitch and build into them:
This is a problem and I experienced my first base had been grieved by someone placing a metal shed blocking any way inside of it. Lucky I’d moved most of my stuff to my second base at this point and only used this place as a safe house.
