ya know, people bash americans for their sueing happy asses.
Well it's shit like that is when america being sue happy comes into play.
Users getting banned for playing a game online before release date because Best Buy, Wal*Mart, Toys R Us or some shit decided to break the street date?
That shit will simply not fucking fly.

MS doesn't ban people who bought the game.

Not offtopic, directly related to Forza3. |
yep , seeing as the forza devs seem to be the one's conveying all the news via twitter and forums . Think I'll stick ma neck out and say it's forza thats doing the damage

Que? You think just because a game has passed "verification" from ABGX360 that you're immune to bans??
Ell oh Ell.
@Glottis
Ah. I didn't know that since I've not been in the Forza thread. Ok, thanks. Still - it's nice to have it's own thread so everyone can see it, ya?

Looks like only NTSC users were hit because it was prerelease review copy, unclear if PAL users are effected or not. Seeing as NTSC release was ripped more than 3 weeks before street date, and PAL only 10 days in advance. Also NTSC was released by unknown group and PAL by a trusted group that never released shit.
Bottom line people should know better, unplug cable when playing games early.

hope its just forza3. I usually am very careful about playing a game only after release date, but I jumped the ball yesterday with FIFA10. My league has already been playing since Oct 2nd and seeing the NTSC release, I couldnt be stopped from playing it online. Anyway I will have my invoice when the game actually ships on 20th, so hopefully no worries.

just wait for the game to be verified with abx360
btw,if we quite "know" that the 360 store the info of the game you played and uploaded them online,why hackers just can't hack this?
,and with a hack,people will be able to
just to turn off the console from live,and play early,without the worry from the console to "snitch" on you to M$
"Fuck Denuvo"
Your personal opinions != the rest of the forum

Online or did you go online after you played?
How does this banning process actually work? Do they fry you if you play a pre-R online(while you'r on live/going on live now and then) or do they ban you if you played a pre-R ever, like it doesn't matter if you played a pre-R six weeks ago, 2 days before the rls date, with the internets plugged out and got online now, aprox six weeks after the rls date, WE F**KING BAN YOUR ASS ANYHOW (coz back then you played that game before the street rls, now we know, so now we got you) ! ...?

been checking out the streams and most of the guys are from the states, could be possibly you are in an area where they haven't broken the street date?

I doubt this has anything to do with the games being pre-release, because MS has stated publicly that people who bought the game are safe from bans, therefore pre-release is NOT the issue.
Also, Gears of War 2 was released like a month early if i recall, and no one was banned for that at all (me included).
Which leads to the one obvious fact, Borderlands (and I'm assuming Forza) are plain old bad rips that MS is able to detect, and they are claiming it as pre-release ban.
This is the same thing as Halo ODST. French rip was bad, people got banned, proper Halo ODST was released STILL prior to official street date and no one was banned (me included).
Blame this on bad rips, NOT pre-release play.

Yeah, the reason for the bans isn't playing a game early, it's playing an illegitimate copy of it early.

^ lol, ok.
Btw, here's what someone said on a comment relalted to Borderlands:
Quote: | Your console records various boot/game data to its internal on-board memory and sends it to M$ immediately the next time you connect it to the net! You don't have to play the game online to be detected and find yourself on the ban list in the future! Hell - you don't even have to actually PLAY the game at all - just booting a game with bad stealth files can get you banned. Just because ABGX360 says an ISO passed its stealth checks doesn't mean it's safe to play - online or not - until those files are also verified against the retail files on the ABGX.net database. Until that happens, the game should NOT be burned and should NOT be played because the stealth files just might be BAD. I've lost count at how many ISO's I've seen pass the first stealth checks only to find that they weren't retail files and ABGX360 had to repair them. This happened with "Operation Flashpoint" and "Brutal Legend" when I checked them just earlier today, for crying out loud.
|
Quote: | when you BOOT a game, your console records data internally - whether your hard drive is connected or not and whether you're connected to the internet or not - and it WILL send that data to M$ if your console is EVER connected to the net again in the future. Period! Does that mean you'll automatically get banned? No. However, it sure as hell puts a huge friggin' bulls-eye on you! Why would you want to do anything to draw attention to yourself?! |
This sort of clears things out, for me at least.

Haha the account suspension subforum on xbox.com is hi-fucking-larious with people trying to explain their way out of shit and the mods acting all high and mighty.
This was almost too funny to even laugh at:
