When you hear a heli overhead and your first thought is "Wonder if I can snipe the pilot and repair it after."

Hey guys be careful where you park the (insert vehicle name here), we hav...had...tents.... Dude, I just found a mostly functioning ATV on this bridge, just a little hull damage.....*BOOM* I'm going to whip around and kill this zombie chasing me, sec. *whips around* OHMYGAWDMYLEGS! Hey man, we found a heli parked in these trees, score! *BOOM*

In the off chance this is all true, I'm sticking with 95417. Though I'm half tempted as a legit player to replicate all these situations while frapsing, if I get banned post the video to youtube and send a message to battle eye with a link to the video. If I don't get banned, post it on youtube and put a link on the forums. If it truly is an issue with something having been changed in the patch and battle eye throwing a false positive (anti-malware programs do it all the time), hopefully battle eye logs the data that results in bans, and can use the information when cross referenced with patch changes to expedite the appeals. Saying it's impossible for battle eye to throw false positives is the same as saying: "Hello, I'm new to computing. Where is my start button?" Response: "Try alt+F4." Outcome: N00b_04 has left the chat. Yes, I'm aware that 90% of battle eye "fanboys" are just trolling because those comments tend to make people rage. We all know battle eye is pretty terrible about actually detecting hackers, otherwise there wouldn't be such a huge slew of recent thunderdomes/mortal kombats. For any of you who truly are legit players stricken with an unfair ban, I hope it all works out. Unfortunately after reading the draconian stated ban appeal policy from battle eye, my opinion is that you are most likely screwed. Suggested stance if no ban appeal: Word of Mouth. It's the best/worst advertising method depending on whether the opinions are positive or negative. If you were unfairly banned and denied an appeal, spread the word. Do everything you can to block future income to this and other projects by the developer. While it's not directly Bohemia's fault, if they feel that battle eye has a made an era, there are steps they can take to remove the issue. Such as using a different anti-cheat. Best of luck, if I get bored I might try and get a false-positive ban and post my findings on youtube. If I do this I'll probably fresh install arma 2/CO, so that it's as convincing as can be before too many people just cry I shooped it all.

This should be a meme. Seriously, it's a box of golden beans.

My guilt moment is after raiding a barn at night, I watch another player enter and start moving around in the barn. By this point, he seems comfy that he's alone and start moving towards item spawns, I sneak up behind him gun drawn at his head. Instead of following my instincts and popping him to see what he has on him, I stare at him til he notices me. He turns around, spots me, we lock eyes for about 3 seconds before I take a hail of Markov bullets. Sucks for him I had a Winchester pointed at his head. The guilt? I feel terribly guilty I didn't shoot him when I had the upper hand. Was kinda hoping for a meaningful player interaction, this has set my sight straight and I won't assume such fallacies exist.

Interesting sociology experiment.

PVE would be fun to play for a chill night where I just want to be lazy, but if it's not an option I'll just continue to do what needs to be done. If I'm not on voice with you, I'm going to shoot on sight. I can't afford to take chances with you. I generally try to avoid other players if I can, but confrontation will always be the same end result. One of us is going to die. I don't know you therefor I can't trust you. IMO, this isn't too different than PVE, only the AI isn't scripted. It's still artificial intelligence though. If it were real intelligence it would be doing the same thing I do, trying to avoid unnecessary contact. Sorry bandits, this wasn't meant for you. You're game play is centered around confrontation.
