fuck MS, I have been using modified firmware for two years now (updated irregularly), playing more than 80+ backups etc. Been playing before street date as well. Gold user for all of the time, otherwise spent 0 on live

Only thing what I did, I never played bad rls of game...

I do not remember any topics or posts at xbox-scene regarding banning firmware only mods (w/o played backups).... As well I dont recall any information about possible method how MS could detect modified firmware...

and detecting illegitimate copy from MS side...

Let me think a bit. Hmm Canadian, US etc. guys playing french release (potentially bad one) . What is the probability of cheating?

If french guys are banned (with proper release) maybe then I would start to consider that MS can detect a shit

That's because nobody knows how MS detect. Bushwacka is probably 100% right; MS could very well already know about each and every FW hack. They just randomly ban to keep us on our toes Wink

Let me get this straight.
so they don't ban you just because you have 360 with FW,
they ban you because you played backups on your console{when they detect you}
and if you playing "good release"{for example?}
there is a lower chance to get banned
am I right?

I'm 99% sure I've read about people who have had modded FW's, but only played originals, and they were banned on the last ban-wave..

Let's just put it bluntly, ok?

If you flash your drive; you'll get banned. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow .. but soon, and for the rest of your (console's..) life.

See? Simple. Play with piracy, run the risk.

The difference being; Obama *isn't* white. That's not speculation, that's fact. If SiN says he's heard of people getting banned for just having hacked FW, then that's what happened.

Look mate, if you don't like the answer; stop asking the question Rolling Eyes

You can constantly ask "how for they banning?" all you want, but you're not going to get a conclusive answer because the truth is; NOBODY knows. The only ones that know how, and when, are those working at Microsoft.

I read it over at Xbox-Scene when the last wave had just struck. Look it up yourself and you'll find it. It was in the thread were they collected info on the banned 360's, wich FW and how they played games (only offline, only retail games online, etc etc)

My xboxlove account is still ok & console not yet banned,although I have not played ODST on my unbanned console yet,I played ODST on my current banned xbox360 & logged the 1st few achievments,put the hard drive into my unbanned machine to play SOME BATTLEFIELD Online & ok so far,not gonna use ODST in my unbanned machine only in my unbanned machine,Its not like you can play mulitplayer anyway?,
having read that MS are likely only to be banning accounts rather than machines,if account is banned couldnt you just set up another live account & be away playing backups online again,I know you may lose DLC from the old xboxlive account so if this is case i wonder if there doing this as if they ban consoles people may just say screw MS I'll just pop out & buy a PS3 slim now they have reduced the price & not bother buying a new xbox360 to get back on live that way they will have a banned xbox360 still be able to play copies ofline & play online with there PS3 for free,just a thought why they may have changed stategy now sony looks like it is gaining some ground in pricing

What I am saying that I have not heard even any single theory (logical one) how MS could scan for hacked FW...

wouldn't it be logical if someone from MS would post such notes to scare everyone...


You are basing your opinion of rumors, I am basing it on facts, that myself and noone of 5 other my mates for whom I flashed their consoles and who have played only good releases are not banned....

So you're basically saying that because it hasn't happened to your and 5 other mates ... then it doesn't ever happen and that everything is else is just scaremongering rumours perpetuated by Microsoft themselves?

Major Nelson Tweets About Halo ODST Bans *Update: MS Detects Copies?*
>> From Major Nelson's Twitter (via team-xecuter.com):
Quote:

Be careful folks! RT @Stepto Hrm. I spy with my little eye some *illegitimate* ODST players. No early play for you. Commencing permabans.


*Update* Seems like Microsoft claims they can detect illegitimate copies. Xbox Live Chief of Police Stephen Toulouse told kotaku.com:
Quote:

I can be clear however that this applies to illegitimate copies only, the ban covers the Xbox LIVE account and could possibly include their console depending on the results of our investigations (which are ongoing). We do this from time to time with titles to combat piracy.
If a user happens to purchase a legit copy of Halo 3: ODST early, then our problem is not with the user but the retailer who broke the street date. Those individuals will not be punished.

"some blog posts"? Xbox-Scene is the biggest website dedicated to hacking the shit out of the Xbox and X360 that there is ... "some blog posts" doesn't exactly begin to cover it.

Wow, I'm sorry, your "evidence" is rock solid, I'm sorry I ever believed what I read!

Laughing

Yeah, it was MS emplyees, let's go with that Laughing


Just the fact that you call Xbox-Scene a "blog", and at the same are serious about using yourself and your "5 mates" as good evidence is just hilarious.
