Theres obviously a communication Issue

dayZ Staff can not and do not have access to BattlEye global bans, and can not revoke them in any way possible. You MUST contact BattlEye support about any bans issued on you

This was said in a post that i recently just saw. Okay you guys may not have control over the bans that Battle eye put out, but is there communication between between the company that deals with DayZ and Battle Eye?. You would think that there would be considering the fact that there are people getting "Globally Banned" everyday for just logging in. I have a friend that has been Banned 3 times and bought the game 3 DIFFERENT TIMES, and is stilling getting banned. No sense is made of that at all. Its better for this problem to get fixed before the cummunity goes down. Right now all it looks like is the companies are just robbing people of their money thinkin that they are going to just buy the game again anyway. Just something i think (and many other gamers think) you should act on.

Well DayZ is a free mod for Arma so really you should take these concerns to the BIS forums. The reason DayZ devs have no control over global bans is because it's a mod of Arma and Arma uses Battleye. I personally have many friends that play DayZ totaling thousands of hours in-game and not one of them has ever been banned.

I would suggest that for your friend to be banned multiple times means that he's doing something wrong either knowingly (hacking) or unknowingly (having a key-stealer on his system). To be falsely banned once is extremely rare, three times suggests the issue is at his end and not BE's. If he got banned the first time by unknowingly having installed a key stealer, then that malware will continue to steal his key's however many times he buys it until he removes it from his system. Keeping your key safe is your responsibility, not the devs.

so to cut a long story short you think that volunteers who do not work for dayz/bis/battleye have an open dialogue with batteye short answer is no the script files are made by bis and are modified voluntary people by bis for dayz in his own time. your friend really should try and find the reason he keeps getting banned ie check out his pc

i have been playing arma since it came out and dayz since it first was realised as well as other mods and i am still on my first and only key

Sorry. This is they Dayz forums. A representation for the development and community interaction with the developer. NOWHERE does it say that they can revoke bans.

You were banned by Battleye. A 10 second google search gives you there website.....

If all of the companies that are involved have even the slightest thing to do with it if shouldn't matter what "Forum" I post it on. If they are working together then there should never be a problem with anyone in the "staff" to bring the issue to Battle Eyes attension....Eat it

dayz isnt a company the "Staff" are mostly volunteers its like asking apple for support for an ms office product.

Did you actually read my post? It looks like the issue is with your friend, not BE. Can you use the normal font colour too please, it's hard to read otherwise.

you cant fix stupid.

Multiple bans means: he either uses hacks, or he buys his game keys from shady sources which sell keys multiple times, or his computer is malware-infested and thus his keys stolen and then in turn sold to hackers.

also, DayZ is not being developed by a company, and the developers are not earning money from it. Your money-grabbing argument is invalid.

Lol all the colored text intimidates me.... -_-

[hollenfeuer88 124]

It's amazing how many people suddenly get "banned for no reason" after Dayz got big.

[Target Practice (DayZ) 1335]

The OP was indeed correct with his title - there IS a communication issue. Sadly, that issue is that he's seemingly unable to understand what others are communicating to him. Still, he seems like a nice enough fellow...

[Steak and Potatoes 13480]

There are a few BE devs that have mod forum accounts, that being said I don't think they need to comb the plethora of ban appeal's submitted by players as they have a site of their own to review the same thing.

Myself and other Moderators/Staff do communicate with Mr BattlEye when required.
