Repeated false positive VAC bans (2 in 1 month)

Recommended Posts

I recently received a VAC ban out of nowhere for DayZSA on my steam account. I appealed to steam, and they never responded, which I believe is indicative of a rejected appeal. A week or so later, I purchased the game again on a new account, only to have it banned again a couple of weeks later.

 

What could be causing this to happen? How can I avoid this happening? Is it possible for me to get any of these bans lifted? I don't really want to spend another £22 after investing £42 already.

 

I love the game, I have over 1200 hours and I'd never cheat. I just want to play again without fear of being banned by mighty Gaben.

 

Any suggestions?

well. last time I checked VAC doesnt ban you on DayZ....Battleye does.....

 

 

EDIT: And if you were banned on DayZ, do not send appeals to steam, send them to battleye, for they take care of all DayZ bans.

Battleye doesn't even consider lifting bans. He's fucked. Sorry dude but BE will just tell you to suck a dick tbh.

Doesn't DayZ run both BE and VAC? Still two bans on two different accounts are hardly coincidence. You are probably running something that is considered cheat by the engine but not by you.

I thought it ran strict BE? Right? I could be wrong.
