Default Dead Island - Reached Level 50 on Chapter 3 - Ban??

Guys,

I tried to be descriptive in the subject (Made it a bit long) just so I could get responses from people.

I was playing Dead Island and I had reached Chapter 3 on Act 1 with my character. Today I used the Dead Island Editor v1.9 and modded my Game Save <-- My first mod!! Everything worked excellent.

After copying my gamesave from my USB Flash drive to my XBOX 360 and loading the game - quite quickly I gained the "Reach Level" achievements ... Reach Level 10, Reach Level 25, Reach Level 50 ...



The problem is I'm still on Chapter 3 of Act 1 ... which is quite early in the game. I haven't gotten the achievements for completing Act 1, Act 2 and so on.

Luckily, I use an offline, modified XBOX 360 for these modded games; I haven't yet taken my profile to my Online Unmodded XBOX 360. If I upload my profile now -- will I get banned? Will Microsoft be able to detect the fact that I got the Level 50 achievement but I'm only on Chapter 3 of Act 1 on the game?

Do I need to wait now & finish the game first before I upload my profile on XBOX Live?

Thanks!!

That's comforting; and helpful! I do want to understand things a bit more (I'm really new to this) and that's the only reason for my follow on question ...

From what I have been gathering, if you do "crazy" things with achievements that don't make sense, like unlocking Chapter 9 achievement when you don't have Chapter 3 achievement, MS detects it and you can potentially get banned. How is my case with this different? Is it because the "Reach level" achievements can possibly be obtained early on?

Thanks again - I appreciate it.

You're not going to get banned, just reset.

I was wondering that; now that I'm thinking about it - it is actually possible to 'Reach Level 50' in Chapter 3. You can keep killing zombies; collecting stuff and running around and technically you actually can reach Level 50 early on.

I think that's what I meant with my original question - Reset - which if I'm not mistaken means getting your Gamerscore down to 0, correct?

So can I get Reset if I upload my profile now with this 'Reach Level 50' achievement in the bag?

Thanks!!

The thing with that is - I know they can't see what chapter I'm on - but they can see I don't have the Achievement for completing Act 1, Act 2, etc. ... that tells them I'm still on Act 1 somewhere.

But I think I'm pretty confident now that I won't get Reset/Banned with this.

THANKS GUYS!!

I've modded level, weapons, health, items, ammo, etc on Dead Island numerous times and have had no consequences. Mod it up, play online, and have some fun.
