U.B.C.S. Hops 128 Posted July 30, 2012 Finding hacked in-weapons. Either you killed said hacker or you found some laying in a tent somewhere.Is it okay to keep the weapons?I have heard people say it is okay to keep them as long as you didnt spawn them in.I have heard people say you cant keep them and you will be perma-banned.I have heard rocket say you cant keep them and you will be banned/profile corrupted ( Are those the same things?)I have also seen him say it is okay to keep hacked in items as long as you didnt spawn them in yourself?I am really confused.

CamP 81 Posted July 30, 2012 I'd say that it's not ok, I'd drop it where no one will find it to get rid of it. (or destroy said tent). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Never 237 Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) I am really confused.So is everyone else.wouldn't worry about it to be honest, Battleeye is as useful as a chocolate teapot, and theres much greater hacks going on so i think the fact you've got a nice gun shouldn't be a probem.Unless its modded to the point its a full auto .50 cal or something.

norreka 45 Posted July 30, 2012 You wont get banned for using hacked items. You get banned for hacking them in. So just feel free to use them if you managed to kill a hacker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kruemelkatze 5 Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Finding hacked in-weapons. Either you killed said hacker or you found some laying in a tent somewhere.Is it okay to keep the weapons? Depends on your attitude. I never got into the temptation to grab a weapon off a corpse/tent, as I always found them after finding my favourite weaponry.I have heard people say it is okay to keep them as long as you didnt spawn them in.Same as above. Using hacked weapons will not get punished, as you cannot separate them from legit ones.I have heard people say you cant keep them and you will be perma-banned. Nope, the devs would have to ban a significant amount of players.I have heard rocket say you cant keep them and you will be banned/profile corrupted ( Are those the same things?) Nope. He may be a badass, but that would send DayZ halfway to its grave.I have also seen him say it is okay to keep hacked in items as long as you didnt spawn them in yourself? True again.I am really confused. Grab some beans.I have no source, but there hasn't ever been a game from which players got banned because of using cheated/hacked/whatever items (unless they did it themselves). No go on and flame me for it. I know you want to. Edit: Argh, don't use this color. Edited July 30, 2012 by Kruemelkatze Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
U.B.C.S. Hops 128 Posted July 30, 2012 Why would I flame you?You contributed a lot to the conversation. Thank you.Just next time, use a different color please?Makes my head hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ridley (DayZ) 19 Posted July 30, 2012 It is okay to pick them up, just don't spawn them in. That reminds me... what the crap happened to the AS50 TWS, Saiga, and Makarov SD? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swineflew 480 Posted July 30, 2012 Rocket said you won't get banned but your account does get some kind of mark against it.He didn't make it clear but he said keeping the weapon is a bad idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
