Is this legal?

Recommended Posts

Ok so 20 minutes ago i was at rog castle when i spawned in to a server and the all castle was blocked off. I saw 4 tents just near me so i hopped over to them and what do you know i see soldier clothing and a l85a2 holo so the main reason im typing this up just so i know that i wont get globally banned of DayZ. so please any suggestions?

Both hacked in.. Wont get banned for using them though. Server admins might ban you from their server.

Personally dont like to carry hacked in gear but you will not get a global ban. It is only a holo that uses STANAG rounds so nothing too crazy, but using that gun with soldier camo will give people the wrong impression fast.

No, don't use them. Battleye won't ban you, but server admins will. You are knowingly exploiting the game by using hacked weapons, even if you didn't hack them in. I could give two shits about camos, but if you knowingly use hacked weapons, you are just as bad as hackers, you just don't have the money to buy their little script packs and spawn stuff.

Don't listen to this guy. You found them in a tent, you can do whatever you please with them.

If it was something like a thermal AS-50 you'd have a moral obligation to ditch it... but go ahead and take that stuff.

You can ONLY get globally banned for actually scripting/hacking in the weapons. If you find them somewhere, it's perfectly legal.

Butthurt server admins may kick you, but that's just them.

Yea that is why I can't really get worked up about someone carrying the holo version when the in game version is so much better. If pushed I would be cool with taking the thermal out of the game but I won't lie and say I pass it up when I find one.

Found an M249 TWS once....possibly the most horrendously Op weapon ever.

You can't get globally banned by BattlEye, many servers will kick/ban you from their servers though.

Stuff that take it and use it. Screw cry baby admins

Even though I had a bad run in recently with an admin I still understand that they are providing a service to the dayz community. Warning and kicking people for weapons not in the mod sets a tone that hacking is not tolerated so I can see why some will enforce this rule.

Just get a list of legal items. If you find a strange weapon or tool you haven't really seen before, check it up. If it's not on the list, Then don't pick it up.

Play fair, stay legal.

The Holo is much better than the AWS IMO... just because it's so much more efficient at close range.

Back to topic though i think it has been answered sever times already... Hacked items, wont get banned but most likely frowned upon.

Using knowingly hacked in weapons is just as bad as hacking them in yourself. Do the moral thing and ditch them.

Oh and if someone kills you with that stuff, they'll assume you're a hacker, which you should be labelled as just for using them
