caik 122 Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) Just started playing Dayz, trying to learn controls and inventory but people keep appearing beside me to give me stuff. Sometimes appears in my inventory sometimes a body full of stuff or vehicle beside us. It is hard to resist as i am rubbish at looting/character control and die by zombie frequently.Will i get banned for having hacked items (that I struggle to use)?Should I be trying to kill Hackers even when they help a noob(me)?Currently hiding in the woods worried my "stuff (silenced M16 and DMR)" will disappear. Apart from feeling like I'm cheating this game is amazing!Die Zombie Die! Edited January 22, 2013 by caik Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SmashT 10907 Posted January 22, 2013 Admins may ban you for using hacked gear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caik 122 Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) Should I chuck the guns away too avoid a ban? Edited January 22, 2013 by caik Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OrLoK 16188 Posted January 22, 2013 Hello thereYou wont be Globally Banned by Battleye for using hacked in gear but you may get put on the dreaded community ban list by an admin if he spots you using it, which is a bugger to get off.I'd toss hacked gear.RgdsLoK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

herrjon 478 Posted January 22, 2013 It varies from admin to admin, some will ban you for simply having hacked in gear even if it's in the official loot table (such as the DMR), others will ban only if it's not official gear (such as your M16 SD) and some just won't care. I think though your best bet is to just get rid of it all and not have to worry about it.I'd recommend killing a zombie (not with with M16 SD but something else, or find one) open up the gear on him, and load the hacked in gear onto him. Then just chose the "hide body" option. The gear will be removed from the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted January 22, 2013 I'd move to a whitelist protected private hive server where you don't have to worry about hackers TBH. Much easier... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caik 122 Posted January 24, 2013 Hello everyone that replied.Took me two days to pluck up the courage to head back in, cos:a) This game has increased my paranoia,B) There's zombers everywhere,c) Worried about getting banned,d) Knew I'd struggle to chuck everything (whilst in the middle of nowhere).Loaded in and everything was still there, killed about 100 zombers with M16 SD (easy). Fired the DMR once, surprisingly loud, got swarmed.Tried to switch to M16 SD and the DMR got crunched in my backpack. Felt better for getting rid. Found a deer stand with pistol M9, so I crunched the M16 in my bag. Felt even better. Broke my leg getting off the deer stand and bled out!Back on the beach with nowt, so no need to worry about the fully armed noob in the wood.Will log in to whitelisted server next game.Will avoid hacked gear from now on.Regards Caik 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
