Hypothetically:
1. I use a modded coalesced file (not to play DLC that I haven't bought) while playing single player.
2. I switch to the default unmodded coalesced file while playing multiplayer.

Would Origin still take action?

can u mod the single player without affecting the multiplayer? i haven't even looked yet, but isn't it all under the same .ini file?

It's .bin this time around, but yes. It's the same file.

What I'm asking is if we would get banned from origin/etc, if all we did was use a modded coalesced file for singleplayer - and when playing multiplayer, switched to the default unmodded coalesced file instead.


Hi HJF4,

We are only taking action against players who modify their multiplayer game to gain unfair progression, unfair advantage, or affect the experience of other players.

Examples are (but not limited to):
- Increase leaderboard rating.
- Increase amount of credits received on a match.
- Increase/modify weapon/power stats.

To clarify,

Scylla was
correct and I was correct. Scylla's answer was more broadly based in
that if you modify your SP and it has no game changing effects to
your/others multiplayer experience (say for example, granting you x
amount of credits or making a weapon x times more powerful) then there
is no problem with this. My answer was poorly worded and I apologize for
that - I was aiming to answer a couple questions I had received via PM
(the same two questions from many different users) as well as support
what Scylla said.

As mentioned by Scylla, you will not be banned
for modifying your files *unless (and this is where my intention was)
they give you an unfair advantage in any multiplayer aspect of the
game.
