sdhfguih2i3df 55 Posted July 4, 2012 Hey, so I saw someone driving a tank in Cherno,and hid by a street until the guy got close enough and I could jump in. Anyway, after I hopped in, we cruised around for 10, 15minutes, and then he said "it's all yours" and took off. I then rolled around in the tank until I somehow made my way to the NW Airport. I was promptly banninated from the server.I 100% didn't realize tanks weren't a part of the game, being a complete noob to DayZ (and arma, I had to google youtube videos to learn how to even switch spots in the tank and fire the bloody thing), I was wondering if my ban could be removed?I've since scoured the wiki and know what vehicles and weapons are legit, so this won't be happening again. I just think it's a BS ban that nobody told me to get out or that it was hacked. I have many friends that can vouche for me, I don't hack, I don't combat log, and I play fair. My character's name is "ken", this happened about a week ago on the NY25 NwO server I believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sdhfguih2i3df 55 Posted July 5, 2012 Yeah, except when I got in the gunner I was using the machine gun. I thought I could use the tank as the driver, the guy before me in the tank was driving, he'd stop, and shot, so I assumed it was the driver who aimed the main cannon, as all I had when i crept up on the guy in the tank first was the machine gun.

gen.jax@gmail.com 8 Posted July 5, 2012 I actually think I was in one of those hangers and saw you roll by... LOL I was like what the #$*%... The truth is though, at the moment it doesnt matter if its a hacked car or gun, if you pick it up and use it your at fault. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

acid_blotter 75 Posted July 8, 2012 I believe him. The map is big but Ive learned Chernarus Very well before playing dayz he could of stumbled upon it. I have seen in many servers illegal vehicle spawns left behind from hackers and they are there until the server restarts.If you don't get unbanned go somewhere else who cares, if it happens again you should be perma banned.

I know my way around the map, I know where to go and how to act ( died once in ~40 hours of game time ) and I didn't know till now that tanks were not part of the game. I just thought they might be really really rare. I guess the thought should have occured to me since I didn't see any tank vehicle spawns on the db map but still.

sdhfguih2i3df 55 Posted July 13, 2012 It's not hard to sit with my second monitor up and a map. That's besides the point though, the guy who was in the tank first, I snuck up and was his gunner. He drove most of the way. And why didn't the admin of the server provide proof like that other guy, I certainly don't have the knowhow to run a script or whatever that bit was about.

Usually the noobs are the ones that get caught, however there are plenty of hackers I can't get proof from logs on because they can completely bypass battleye.
