Battlefield 3 colour mod could result in hack ban

bf310

Heads up, Battlefield 3 fans: DICE doesn’t look kindly on you bringing mods to matches. Commenting on a mod which adds a splash of colour to the military shooter, DICE’s Gustav Halling said using “those hacks” could result in permanent bans, because it’s a “proper cheat”, not a brightness mod. Best to know this now and not after you find yourself on the end of the hammer.

Thanks, Blue.
