Kirov (DayZ) 585 Posted August 9, 2019 I guess only the Aussies can sign for it to have any meaning? I'm sure this community would be glad to help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry, but digital copies also apparently been pulled from xbox and playstation stores and soon steam,... WTF because of weed?,.. These classification tossers must be corrupt as fuck, high and selling meth to even have that notion and release those words from their foul mouth, SHAME ON THEM!, GTA, Saints Row, Scarface, etc etc... all allowed, hmm but not DayZ?,.. are they out of their fuking minds?? Really?... My country is becoming a bunch of nanny state backward control freaks,.. My mind is absolutely blown, I read the article like 20mins ago.. they cant be serious surely,... thats completely dumb and illogical,.. stupid addictive games like fortnite or LOL dont even get a second look and games like fortnite have literally ruined childrens lives and its actually classed as being addictive equal to any highly addictive drug but they do nothing about that and let it continue to ruin childrens lives and their parents'... This cannot be allowed to continue and the board should be dismissed immediately and their retarded classification system overhauled because DayZ is nothing compared to the other games that are allowed, it should not of even be looked at as a threat. Sign as many petitions you can survivors for the love of DayZ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aussiebobby 82 Posted August 12, 2019 Or wotmate 7 points 22 hours ago* This is a marketing stunt. It's been out for ages, and only now the classification board has suddenly found a reference to cannabis in the game files that aren't actually used in the game? How did they find it? It's not like the people on the board have the technical expertise or even the time to go trawling through unused game files to find this stuff, so somebody had to tell them. They don't even play the games ffs... You watch, the developers will release a patch that removes that file, and it will suddenly be available again, and lots of people will buy it because of the extra media exposure. https://www.reddit.com/r/australia/comments/coq16y/dayz_banned_in_australia_for_something_that_isnt/ewkoya4/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ICEMAN-FMCS 69 Posted August 21, 2019 So Dayz has been 'unbanned" here in Australia great but still doesnt say much about the stupid classification boards reasoning on banning/refusing classification it in the first place.

I read the RC classification in Australia is for the in-game use of illicit substance as incentive for specific benefit, such as healing. The files haven't been implemented, nor do we know any effects! It's a load of craps. Sorry you guys had to deal with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
