Some help fellas?

Recommended Posts

So I went out of town for a week and my (insert insult here) brother got me globally banned. I've read the stickeys, just had a few questions.

Do I just have to re-buy Operation Arrowhead and change the CD key to be back gaming?

When I go to buy OA in steam it says I've already bought it, and can't again.

What do I do fellas? Sorry if these questions have been answered before, just give me a break, never thought I'd be asking this, as I hate hackers. Which my brother now knows. ;)

You will need a new steam account for OA, possibly even have to buy ArmA2 again unless someone knows a way round it.

You will also need to search the forum for ways to edit the old registery key and add the new key.

You'll need to make a new account to be able to buy the game(s) again.

But as per my policy, I won't let you in on how to change the keys once you have it.

So I'm guessing I'll have to buy OA and ARMA: 2 again?

Or just buy combined operations?

Sorry, I'm new to steam, don't really like it much.

You'll have to get used to it. It's the best and the biggest there is as far as PC gaming goes. Almost everything requires it.

 

You can get away with just buying ARMA 2: Operation Arrowhead, if you download ARMA 2: Free. (Demo of ARMA 2.)

He denies it up and down. I figured I can beat it out of him if I have to rebuy the games.

Excellent. So I'll just uninstall them both, start a new steam account, get ARMA 2: Free, BUY OA, install them, and I'll be good to go?

Sorry to keep bothering you bro, you're just extremely helpful. No good deed goes unpunished right?

Hello there

 

If your "brother" has not scripted, be aware there may be a key stealer still resident on your machine.

 

You'll need to get rid of that.

 

Search/google for the info.

I think he's a little liar. Because he's scared of what I'll do. I'll try this though, and see what happens.

Oh the brother again.  Always the brother.

It's like there's an echo in here or something. :P

Even if I wanted to hack, do you think I'd have the knowhow to hack, and then have to ask how to get the game working again? Logic OP.

I made another steam account, deleted ARMA II and OA, getting ready to buy and download Combined Operations. That will work for day z buddy?

I didn't say you were lying.  I don't know if you know how to hack or not, most of the DayZ hackers don't, they just buy scripts.  I don't even know if you have a brother.  I was just observing how many global bans are caused by brothers, it's a cautionary tale.

Haha, sorry if I was abrasive, just irritated. See, idk what buying scripts even means. =/

Combined Operations is what Day-z runs on correct? Sorry to keep pestering you guys. :(

Yeh it runs on Combined Operations which is Arma 2 and Arma Operation Arrowhead combined.  It's your OA key that's banned though so as Dancing said you could get away with just buying that.

Hey, thanks man. I'll try doing that here shortly and see how it goes. I'll be back to complain and harass you guys if it doesn't work. xD

Thanks for being so patient, I'm cpu illiterate, just play the games haha.

I don't know man, most hackers I have come across aren't exactly the brightest guys; hence why they hack in the first place
