TyRobot 100 Posted July 26, 2012 I've been moderating a few streams on Twitch.tv for like the last 4 hours...but, I've had at least 10 random people (...none of which would/could provide a link) claim that there was a massive wave of hackers banned today. I've searched all over the forums, and I haven't found anything. I know quite a few people were having problems (..and thought they were banned) after that magical Steam update, but they just needed to verify the game again via Steam.I can't seem to find where the Darwin List thread went to either, but if anyone could provide a link, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance...but, I just can't believe these rumors until I see some facts. However, every ounce of my being hopes this is true... ^_^If this is true...then good job Bohemia and/or BattlEye..kudos to you all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Disgraced 1123 Posted July 26, 2012 That's the rumor. There's another thread with a print screen from some scripted haven that people are posting in droves that they are being banned. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

neo2157 21 Posted July 26, 2012 Arma2+OA=40 bucks Subscription for hack sites=20 bucks, CD-key ban=priceless. though I imagine allot of them will just re-buy new CD-keys which i find funny, people are really willing to just keep spending money to grief people.

TyRobot 100 Posted July 26, 2012 Incoming follow-up DDOS wave?I hope they have the hatches battened down....Yeah, really! I can only imagine the chaos since this game exploded in popularity...working around the clock on patches, hotfixes, hackers, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They can continue using their normal ARMA 2 with DayZ. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

exesgo@gmail.com 31 Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) Incoming follow-up DDOS wave?I hope they have the hatches battened down....From my dummy (spy) accounts on some cheats sites.. that seems to be the case (the amount of rage is funny though).I've got my umbrella up.. dunno what that'll do though.

DarkRaven123 602 Posted July 26, 2012 If that Darwin list is all that's banned, I hope Battleye gets a patch and cleans up the rest of the skiddies using the current hook. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entaro (DayZ) 33 Posted July 26, 2012 Good news!There's always going to be dedicated hackers, but if the detections are frequent enough, then most of the leet kiddies will not last past 2 or 3 CD-Key purchases in my experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLoneRanger (DayZ) 22 Posted July 26, 2012 Appears to be legit. There was another topic in the cheat reporting thread saying the same thing. Great news! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sixbarns 217 Posted July 26, 2012 http://dayzmod.com/f...t-banned-users/It's in the announcements subforumThat's an old post with an old list. I don't see anything about todays bans in it besides random talk. There's only one post from today in that entire thread.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SupaFly1983 52 Posted July 26, 2012 I'm tipping we have, at best, 2-4 weeks before the hack bypasses are updated.But hey, on the positive side, that is 2-4 weeks of hacker free (or much much less) gaming :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sixbarns 217 Posted July 26, 2012 2-3 weeks? No, I'm betting a few days at least. A week at most. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
