dubscheckem 13 Posted June 26, 2012 Note: I'm posting this for my friend because he has yet to receive his activation email.An outline of events as recanted to me by my friend:He respawned near Elektro and found a 1911 with a single magazine. As he's moving towards the outer-city firestation from the center of town he spotted zed aggro and then a guy in a ghillie engaging the zeds with a suppressed weapon. My friend killed the guy in the ghillie with his only mag of 1911 ammo.When he went to loot his kill he discovered the following: 2xNVG, 2xRangefinder, Backpack (coyote), 1xL85A2 AWS, 1xMK17 CCO SD.It is my understanding that the L85A2 AWS is legitimate, despite not being listed on the loot cheat sheet. Is the MK17 CCO SD a hacked weapon? It has an icon in-game, which I guess means it's legit, but we're still not sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaginun 87 Posted June 26, 2012 Yeah , it's hacked , I would suggest not picking it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubscheckem 13 Posted June 26, 2012 Yeah ' date=' it's hacked , I would suggest not picking it up.[/quote']Please don't take this the wrong way, I'm just looking for more information.How do you know that it's hacked? I mean, Rocket has added/removed weapons silently multiple times, mostly for the heli-crash uber-lewt. Is it possible that this MK17 CCO SD was added silently at some point in DayZ's life?

Is it possible that this MK17 CCO SD was added silently at some point in DayZ's life?It's not in the loot tables, and I don't think he is adding and removing weapons silently anymore, the forums would be filled with threads about "So is this a hacked weapon or not?"

Survivor-Kyle 148 Posted June 26, 2012 NVGs are ultra rare. The guy had 2 of them, the rarest backpack, a very rare rifle, and a questionable suppressed weapon. He was a hacker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rakkasan 23 Posted June 26, 2012 Or the hackers found a way to get it into the game with picture attached to it. I would have to say it is hacked otherwise there would be a lot more post on this weapon asking if it was hacked or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dut 21 Posted June 26, 2012 Lucky, the only hacker I've killed didn't even have NVGs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aks 5 Posted June 26, 2012 I do not believe it has been added into dayz from the default arma 2 CO weapons list as of yet.If I were you I would leave it alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jemoeder 51 Posted June 26, 2012 Rarest backpack + ghillie + weapons ike that and a NVG & Rangefinder <-- when no sniperNobody would risk so much in Cherno or Elektro i think lol withouth a groupDef a hacker just drop the CCO SD gun to avoid a DayZ Database banBut if you want you can use it on your own risc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unsobill 0 Posted June 26, 2012 You will not be globally banned for carrying hacked items. You will only be banned for doing shit or running 3-rd party scripts or injecting hooks or other malicious shit. That was announced by Rocket long time ago already. There is shit load of things that not on that list - for example radio, does that item radio is hacked ? I remember some weapons that used to be in the mod for example FLIR sniper rifles got removed after some patched and caused massive buthurt from masses, yet for some players some weapons stayed mysteriously. This is alpha - everything is possible - don't explain everything with hacks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rakkasan 23 Posted June 26, 2012 ROFL you WILL be Global Banned for carrying hacked items. How do I know? My friends killed hacker before the mass bans, he picked up M4 Silenced Halo (grenade launcher) and red dot sight. Used it for a week. Global ban hammer hit him. Poof. Do Not Pick it up or use it...

Jemoeder 51 Posted June 26, 2012 Unso would you be so nice to link the topic ? because you can turn off 3rd party shit after you hacked your gear?... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
racecar 0 Posted June 26, 2012 This forum really needs a sticky to dispell this "No Icon" myth.You can very easily tell if a weapon is supposed to be dropped in DayZ by looking at the game files. They aren't encrypted or anything, you just need to download a tool for opening the .pbo files.This weapon is not supposed to drop in DayZ.Edit: Oh, and Battleye will not ban anyone for picking up guns. Especially not for weapons included by default in ARMA 2. It would be kind of a problem for all the people who don't play DayZ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unsobill 0 Posted June 26, 2012 your friend must have used some extra shit while playing mod.rocket DayZ StaffDayZ Dev Team Posts: 1,163Joined: Apr 2012RE: Why did I make a global ban! Pls HelpYou do not get a server or global ban for picking up weapons, or having weapons, or anything to do with weapons.You get a global ban from BattlEye, for hacking/cheating.Unso would you be so nice to link the topic ? because you can turn off 3rd party shit after you hacked your gear?...you cant turn off shit bro' date=' since you need to run application that inject hooks into memory while playing game to hack shit from main database. [im not sure how shit works, so this is my phantasy talking'] Now once you run application that "hacking" shit for you while playing Dayz mod Battle-eye detects memory injection and bye byeyou cant run hacks separately from the game.

Flip4Flap 8 Posted June 26, 2012 Everything beeing said.So much stuff and risking around doens't make sense. Even more with 2x NVG.I highly suspect the guy to be a "soft hacker", no mass killing just spawned instant kewl stuff for player hunting. And yeah, the m17 ain't in loot sheet so I highly doubt it's legit, picture or not.If you like the gun, the M4a1-SD would be an equivalent.Try it but at your own risks, you've been advertised. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Macenzie 79 Posted June 26, 2012 That gun is not legit, it does not spawn in the barracks, it does not spawn at chopper crashes. The ammo doesn't spawn anywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zerafas 0 Posted June 26, 2012 I found this exact gun on a hacker a long time ago. Was laying down in the forest outside komorov waiting for a mate to arrive from Kamenka. I had an MA41 CCO at the time. All of a sudden i see a guy in a guillie suit stand up not 15 metres right in front of me. Scaring the crap out of me i popped a few clips into the back of him. He dropped before he could DC im sure, and he was a clan memeber of some kind (sorry i couldnt get photographs at the time, figured this guys was legit until i found what he had on him). I looted his body to find this gun, the best back pack, 17 clips for it, another quite rare gun with 5 mags, and pretty much every single piece of equipment in the game. Thinking at the time, "was this guy loot cycling for like 2 weeks to obtain all this?!?". My mate then met up with me and we checked out the rest of the crap together and split what we could. At the time ofcourse i had no idea if the gun was hacked or not. So i gave him my gun and ammo, and took the gun off the body plus what ever else i wanted only to get that inventory wiped clean bug after clicking something. Im like what? it must have either been hacked equipment if it just disappears or just an annoying bug. Other than that my mate and i ran off empty handed thinking "f#$&ing hacker".
