Dandiser 1 Posted October 10, 2014 Hey I've been playing DayZ since it's alpha release for some time till January 2014. After that I had no time to play or do stuff / read about it, sadly.Now that a lot of time passed and I can finally enjoy my favourite type of games, survival, I find myself having banned account.Now that doesn't really matter, mistakes happen. BUT. I want to know one thing. If I buy DayZ on another Steam account, am I going to be banned from it or not ?I have no bad intentions to the game and I don't try to die to get Electro spawn :) I hope any of you knows the answer and replies.Thanks a lot for your time. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chepaco3290 59 Posted October 10, 2014 If you buy dayz again on a different steam account, you will not be banned so long as you don't hack, man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Calvin Candie 189 Posted October 10, 2014 Yep, free hacking pass only costs 23 euros. Bans should be IP related or some other way so you cannot come back. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Btw thanks for answers. really appreciate it You wouldn't get banned if you didn't hack. Now that a lot of time passed So you are saying that you stopped playing then came back to a banned account? Yeah, doesn't work like that. Like Calvin Candie said, bans should be by IP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k3malb3y 23 Posted October 10, 2014 Yep, free hacking pass only costs 23 euros.Bans should be IP related or some other way so you cannot come back. our IP numbers are dynamic in Turkey, restart router - get a new ip in the pool. Today I think different, optimist way; Those script users also helping development *twice :)DayZ win. either way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boxman80 964 Posted October 10, 2014 You wouldn't get banned if you didn't hack. So you are saying that you stopped playing then came back to a banned account? Yeah, doesn't work like that. Like Calvin Candie said, bans should be by IP. Yea IP bans don't work because of dynamic addressing. What you really need is the hardware bans that you get with some applications. That would really be expensive to get around! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khanarac 252 Posted October 10, 2014 Maybe he manipulated the PBO files back when it didnt cause BE to bann people. Now it does. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DURRHUNTER 597 Posted October 10, 2014 I wish they would use the thing that the ArmA 3 Breaking Point mod uses that scans your PC for any kind of cheat/hackware and automatically bans you if you do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foxdie_01 121 Posted October 10, 2014 Wohoa, don't try to hard to stop all the hackers rebuying the game, otherwise we'll have no left to bank roll this game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No to that. Cheat engine would be on that list as well then, and Cheat engine is a tool that a lot of people use (not just for cheating). IT students use it as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boneboys 7988 Posted October 10, 2014 "If I buy DayZ on another Steam account" You will have to ask Steam about that.******************************************************Guys, we don't want hackers on these Forums, even the innocent ones, including my brother (cat, next door neighbour)!
