Yarrick68 (DayZ) 26 Posted August 17, 2012 So two teamates encounter a hacker that used the teleport script and killed one friend but the other friend shot the hacker... then 2 more hackers teleported in and killed my other friend.... So they run from the coast for 20 min and their bodies are still there so they get their gear back... However, the one hacker they did kill, his body was there as well... and he was loaded so they got gear they didn't have for their trouble... Now here is the issue... The hackers body has an AS50 with the thermal scope...a hacked weapon... Is this just their prize for encountering a hacker or should it be destroyed?

pwnage13371 147 Posted August 17, 2012 Keep it. There is no punishment besides a possible but unlikely server ban. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dallas 5195 Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) I don't use hacked in weapons myself, since they are not part of the mod. I consider it cheating, even if I didn't hack it in myself. I don't think you'll get banned by BattleEye, but a server admin might catch it scanning the logs and take matters in own hands.

Wallberot 37 Posted August 17, 2012 Loot it and use it! Or you could take the high ground and put it on a dead zombie, and hide the body. The choice is yours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ped 80 Posted August 17, 2012 Just as a heads up, you ARE flagged for having a weapon outside of the DayZ Mod. Any admin can attest to seeing hive_write spam whenever someone joins their server with AS50_TWS or whatever else. Or rather you could, I think in 1.7.2.5 the spam is gone. Sure, BattlEye won't ban you, but a server Admin can. Either way though, you're being tracked while you have it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lowbei 33 Posted August 17, 2012 HOW many of the exact same threads can we make?seriously use the fucking search function, this question is asked literally multiple times a day on these forums Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pwnage13371 147 Posted August 17, 2012 I'm pretty sure that a update caused the logs to suck balls. The server owner of the server I am an admin on told me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legacy (DayZ) 1091 Posted August 17, 2012 Sure, BattlEye won't ban you, but a server Admin can. Either way though, you're being tracked while you have it.Technically that is false, as they need sufficient enough evidence via logs to ban them if they spawned it in themselves. Picking up a legitimate weapon that it is in the game from Arma 2 is not grounds for a ban, but scripting and spawning them for yourself is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdz (DayZ) 238 Posted August 17, 2012 Don't fucking use it, it's a dick head move.If you're going to use spawned in weapons, you may as well spawn them in yourself and be just as bad as the hacker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
