MadJim (DayZ) 2 Posted August 24, 2012 hi, this is to help anyone and me to make it clear/clarify if it is ok to use or pick up a hacked weapon? as i am aware if you spawn into a game (fresh spawn) with hacked weapons or cheats etc you can get banned but if you pick up a weapon via body or tent is it ok to use it!? what is the score? only comment if you actually know the truth 100% not just a rumor.......

Ajvkorn 72 Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) You can not receive a global ban, AKA battle eye. If an admin somehow knows you have a hacked weapon, I guess he can ban you from the server(who cares there are many others). So unless you run up to an admin and show him your gun, you won't get banned. Lot of people use an AS50 TWS(which is a thermal as50) and unless you see the gun up close, there is no physical way to tell it is a TWS other than just guessing.edit: and that is from rocket himself about the battle eye. I am not sure if admins have the right to ban somebody for it even if it is there server. Admins have the ability to ban players, but they are still restricted on why and how they ban you. If it is an unfair ban you can just report the server and it can or will be black listed. Edited August 24, 2012 by Ajvkorn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tiptoptopper@gmail.com 244 Posted August 24, 2012 Pick up everything. Nobody gives a fuck any more. Especially me dev team. They love the hackers, bugs and ignoring the community. Hey, why not try hacking yourself. It's probably the only fun you will get from this piece of garbage. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

l3dz3p 1 Posted August 24, 2012 From battleye.com:"No one is banned for using non-hack programs (like Fraps, overlays, etc.), picking up or using hacked in-game items, weapons or vehicles, being on a server at the same time as a cheater, or other passive non-cheating activity. Therefore all requests mentioning these things as possible reasons for the global ban are ignored." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jblackrupert 308 Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) If an admin spots you using a hacked weapon he is well within his rights to ban your sorry ass especially if you know where the weapon came from. Edited August 25, 2012 by jblackrupert Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wh1tey 1 Posted August 25, 2012 If an admit spots you using a hacked weapon he is well within his rights to ban your sorry ass especially if you know where the weapon came from.and this is the only right decision in my opinion. to know its a hacked weapon and use it anyways is the wrong decision because its not right. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ajvkorn 72 Posted August 25, 2012 Sounds like you guys are butt hurt. Just because they have a hacked weapon doesn't make them invincible. L2play the game and you can still easily kill them. People need to man up and stop bitching about it. The only real OP gun is the As50 TWS and even then it still has it's downsides up close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jblackrupert 308 Posted August 25, 2012 "Butt hurt"..... that term is very popular with the hacker crowd. Funny you should choose to use it in defence of cheating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You find a hacked gun: if its a dayz avaliable weapon I say go for it! Otherwise you should get banned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise you should get banned.That is actually quite common in DayZ. Admins often engage in hacking and then ban players who ruin their hacking fun.Many server admins in DayZ like to create their own servers precisely so they can hack and dupe items in peace.

JefBoy 0 Posted August 26, 2012 Why is it that people assume that an admin with a hacked gun has hacked it in himself? He could've picked it of a corpse or found it in a tent just the same as everyone else. I know I have. I just don't use them out of principle but it's mighty tempting if half the people in the server are using them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gywidion@msn.com 80 Posted August 26, 2012 To be safe, ditch it. It is ok to have per Rocket, but folks will see you as a skiddie for just having it. And some folks have been banned from servers for just having it. Not worth it really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sostronk 334 Posted August 26, 2012 It is not OK to pick up hacked weapons, some admins will ban you from their servers for having them, but you will not be globally banned for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
