Issue regarding new Battleye Update

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I just wanted to bring up an issue with the new Battleye update. First, I want to say thank you for getting the Navigator hack discovered/watched. However, I urge people who play the game from public gaming cafes to take care. Yesterday I was kicked/banned from a server for BEC Gamehack #77 - I didn't know what this was at first, but it relates the use of the above hack.

I was confused at first, but after I had checked out what the hack does I saw the only similarity was that I had Firefox open to use the dayzDB map. Subsequently, the internet history showed 10 links to the same directory (it wasn't a website) that when clicked on, lead to a blank Dayz map - I assume the hack writes stuff onto this map. Today I heard that the new Battleye feature scans processes so I believe that if the hack has been used on a computer, the process scan can actually read the cookies or history which initiates the kick even if you didn't have the hack open.

tldr; be careful when playing dayz at a gaming cafe, I'm likely going to lose my key now - don't want to see the same thing happen to others who don't have the privilege of gaming from home.
