Biito 1 Posted September 11, 2012 So today I was running through the woods after someone teleported right in front of me as soon as I saw that I alt f4'd. Now was I in the wrong for doing this or not as I've had people tell me of people getting banned out of the hive for alt f4'ing and I'm wondering whats going to happen.

Welch (DayZ) 756 Posted September 11, 2012 That's an excuse. You won't be banned, they only ban for running illegal scripts.You better hope you don't run "Navigation Tools", which get rid of grass or show players' names. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuji (DayZ) 8 Posted September 11, 2012 no you will not get banned disconnecting at any time is not against any rulesit is considered bad form though if you are avoiding a legit fight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hetstaine 10852 Posted September 11, 2012 Thing is, did they teleport or was that them simply logging in ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dev (DayZ) 113 Posted September 11, 2012 no you will not get banned disconnecting at any time is not against any rulesit is considered bad form though if you are avoiding a legit fightIt is against the rules and you can be punished for it. Might try reading about how rocket himself said it is an exploit and that is why they are going to eventually track it.Alt f4ing is acceptable only if you know it is a skiddie doing the normal teleport everyone to one location/thunderdome/A10s flying over you.I have had people appear behind me and start shooting. Sometimes they are cheaters but sometimes they are people who I might have missed or just logged in behind me so I just kill them or die. Now if you are traveling through an open field and someone appears in front of you, that is a good sign they are cheating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skat3rat 1633 Posted September 11, 2012 Alt F4ing due to hackers is completely fine. Alt F4ing to avoid a firefight or players isn't OK and is heavily frowned upon even by Rocket himself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
