smoke_ 2 Posted April 2, 2013 So I started playing DayZ about a week and a half ago after watching some gameplay videos on youtube and was been enjoying myself greatly. After a couple days of playing I took a weeklong break from the game to study for a slew of tests and when I got back on I was unable to join because of a global ban. Not really sure how this happened and I am wondering what to do. I emailed battleye support once, then waited several days and emailed them agian, but so far still no response. I cannot find a way to contact either bohemia or battleye by phone (as my emails get no response) and steam has been no help either.I am really upset first by the fact that I did nothing wrong and now the game, which I paid for with my hard earned money, is unplayable and second by the fact that I cannot seem to do anything about it other than buy the game agian, which I refuse to do out of principle.Has anyone else had this problem and if so would you be so kind as to give me some advice about what I should do?

herrjon 478 Posted April 2, 2013 Battleye is the only one that can lift the ban, you can't get any help here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
entspeak 374 Posted April 2, 2013 http://support.dayzmod.com/knowledgebase.php?action=displayarticle&id=24My advice to new players is to buy your software from BIS or Steam only; don't download any third party software claiming to give you some benefit in DayZ; and don't cheat. These are the ways to avoid being banned or having your key stolen and being banned by the actions of the person who stole your key. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smoke_ 2 Posted April 2, 2013 I did buy both Arma and operation arrowhead from steam and I'm not a scipt kiddie, which Is why I'm so pissed off. What would you feel like if a product you paid money for doesnt work and then be told that you can go stuff it by the company (at least thats what it feels like like they are saying).

herrjon 478 Posted April 2, 2013 We've all heard the sob story from hundreds before you, but the fact of the matter is, no one here can help you, and complaining about it does not good. You know your options, wait for Battleye or buy a new key, that's just how it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
