its not about getting banned, its about the few checks that they have introduced in this update release, so may be they are tracking the noobs down who updated the dashboard & still playing online via a modded console!
New Xbox LIVE Dashboard Release Date
- Thread starter Black Knight
- Start date
seriously what is up with all the noobs in this thread. Shani u should have done some research before updating. Dont listen to people saying that they havent gotten banned yet. They will get struck by the ban hammer eventually. And also some of the newer games like Fable 3 are not working because they have introduced some new checks with the update so it may be possible that upcoming games might not work on the new dashboard, weather offline or online. Seriously I already posted these facts a while ago. Please check a few of the previous posts before asking the same question over and over again. And Shinigami yes that noob friend of mine thought he was very smart for updating and than he called me up saying that he did not get banned. I asked him to try running Fable 3 a game which he was already playing and he got the "disc is unreadable error" Lol... He checked black ops next but it was working, I dont think he played it online though cause i havent see him online after our conversation 
i have an unmodded slim which i updated to the new dashboard last night. update went smoothly and i played modern warfare 2 online without any issues. all that was just for information purposes of course considering most people are wondering about modded consoles.
from team executer's website and c4eva, it seems that the new dashboard introduces real time cache, buffer and firmware checks. the LT+ firmware currently in the works DOES take care of these checks, however, the version they're working on as of right now is only for the 360 S. Fable III was perhaps one of the first games to implement the real time checks, hence with a beta version of the new dashboard it would give a 'disc not recognized' error because the software wasn't recognized.
just to clear up a few confusion points:
1. you can use your xbox offline just as you always have if you do not connect to xbox live.
2. if you connect to xbox live, you have to download the new dashboard otherwise you will not be able to sign in to live.
3. if your console is already banned from live, i would imagine you won't be able to download the new dashboard anyway so nothing to worry about anyway.
4. for people who got their 360 S modded, the update WILL mess up the mod and not play pirated games, so best not to update right now.
5. for the old 360, i don't have one myself so i can't say for sure, but pirated games are still playing with the new dashboard. the ban hammer will fall sooner or later if you are playing on live so i'd stay away from XBL for the time being until xecuter releases an updated firmware.
all the same, anyone's who has more info or something different to add, please share.

sorry for asking soo many questions,i ate a lot of sugar the slim is being modded by a couple of members on here...xboyhot and modmaster; problem is it's not safe for xbox live or the new dashboard. on the old dashboard it plays all pirated games offline of course.
there is no news from xecuter about new firmware for the slim, however, the most likely time frame is sometime after the release of kinect (hopefully within November). anyone who has the slim and wants to continue playing online would do well to wait for the "official" hack.

So does it mean that even in order to play offline, a new game like Fable 3, we need to update the dashboard???
As i don't wish to go online and i dont update my dashboard will i be able to play the latest games offline or not???

yar u will be able to play games as u have in the past if u dont update to the new dashboard,nothing more nothing less.Stop asking the same questions,read the previous posts first.
C4E posted some updates about the Xbox360 fall2010 dashboard security on #FW@EFnet. He reports the Update Process itself seems ‘safe’ at the moment, however that doesn’t mean you can go ahead updating and booting everything you want. AP2.5 games are a problem/unsafe for sure (and we don’t know exactly which titles all have or will have AP2.5 active). For the rest nothing is 100% confirmed safe.
[c4eva] ap2.5 already defeated, backup fable 3 running fine on beta dash! more data required for analysis!
[**] C4 are you planning on releasing the new LT+ for the old consoles? ie. not slim?
[c4eva] **:yes
[***] c4eva, is it confirmed that current FW and older games will be safe in the new dash?
[c4eva] ***:unknown at present!
[c4eva] dash out?
[c4eva] version please?
[c4eva] so it begins,dash version please?
[****] c4 2.0.12611.0
[c4eva] very good, thx, same version im already working with!
[*****] C4 are you still working on hitas? Will they eventually be released =)?
[c4eva] *****:was working on it , not for a while now!
[*******] c4eva so there will be a LT+ for lite-on and benq drives
[c4eva] yes
[c4eva] ok, have logged the update process, analysing!
[c4eva] logged entire update process, no vendor packets, only standard inquiry and key exchange, so update process safe!
[c4eva] fable 3 not safe! ap2.5 active for that title with new dash!
[c4eva] as soon as we have enough data on ap25 then there will be something
[c4eva] testing more game titles soon for ap25!

I think it would be a smart move if you just let the ban wave pass, get the new FW and then go on live.....unless you feel like wasting your current xbox
naa,i think its more fun if there is a chance of getting caught and ban can restart at anytime of the year,not just in nov or dec.
so older games r kinda safe with the new dash....its only the newer games that use ap2.5 that r not safe atm.
Why are you guys even taking a chance in updating? <_<
Cant you wait a few days till the CFW is released?
Edit: And does this mean that new games will require the latest update to play them? Will it be mandatory to update to play them offline?

Is updating the dashboard on xbox 360 directly and update from a USB the same thing? Because, it seems like updating to the latest dashboard is kinda safe. Can I update it from USB and then maybe go online sometime. Will that not cause a ban?
well fellas,i ouldnt wait and also updates,but the board has become much planer,all white and subtle,feels like a hospital to me.,ohh and also,there is nothing wrong yet,been playing MW2 entire day
everybody update their consoles. I updated mine its great now im going to get banned so you should also update and get banned with me,

Necrokiller:
The only valid thing from his pov he said in the video is AC dead since Black Flag. According to woke police that game was woke too. Welsh man in West Indies. So atleast he's consistent I guess lol -
Necrokiller:
It's based on an actual real life person so I don't think the woke police have a valid case here.
-
XPremiuM:
Meanwhile Ghost of Tsushima PC version is out now. Looks 100 times better than ASS Creed already. -
XPremiuM:
Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

Necrokiller:
Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.
-
SolitarySoldier:
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff. -
SolitarySoldier:
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol
-
SolitarySoldier:
"These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is
-
XPremiuM:
Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out.
-
XPremiuM:
They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
-
XPremiuM:
What's the f*** is wrong with them? I mean really? Have they completely lost it? F***ing retards.
-
XPremiuM:
So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.
