In SC walls are only there if you dream hard enough

Also lol of course there will be hacks for an engine that has been in the world for 14 years (in one iteration or another)

I can only assume CIGs anti cheat consists of 'Is player a cheater = no'

The question isn't how he's doing it, it's why - and I think we can all agree that this kind of behavior says a lot more about the streamer's morality than about CIG's coding.

Man the client side offloading in this game must be really broken. Server doesn't even know what the level geometry looks like, just trusts the client that it has LOS to the target.

If that's the case, I doubt the server even knows how many bullets you have or the firerate of your gun. Looking forward to the hack that fires infinite bullets at each opponent instantly.

I think even a script would work if you just told it to rotate the player 360 degrees as fast as possible (should be super easy as the game already does that sometimes) while shooting

Good idea, let's complain about how bad the person is instead of the lovely coding that allows him to do it. That will definitely solve the problem and ensure nobody ever does it again.

This happens a lot in MMOs and such but way less in modern shooters. Mostly because that would involve some injection going on and thats easily detectable.

The weird thing is that Sandi having been in porn is so much funnier because it was such softcore stuff. Somehow, her being in the sort of full on, double-penetration while being whipped and pissing on a dwarf porn that I would some people jerk off to would be more sad than anything. But tickle porn that doesn't even have nudity? That's just funny.

I like that reddit post that implies it isn't true when it's literally on her IMDB

How'd you get into the alpha?

It's hard to explain but I'll try

I purchased the top tier pack a long time ago , and they decided to release alpha access in waves

So each week or two they would release a set number of alpha keys

If you had the top package you had a say 100% chance of getting picked , based on the date of pre order

So those that bought it 1/1/2015 would be picked from the pool before me who bought on 1/10/2015

If you bought the next lowest pack you had a 50% chance etc on down the line

I'm not sure if they've stopped giving keys now , as everyone who pre ordered received access months ago by now ? But their forums will give you a better idea , if you buy a pack now do you get instant alpha access or not

i think its really over the line to go that much effort to "expose" someone especially when a lot of it doesnt have anything to do with the game, although whether or not it has anything to do with the game isnt really important either. additionally i think its really bad that its apparently fair game to do insults based on his creepy detective work in this thread. if shes guilty of some kind of crime or fraud whatever then the way to get justice is report her to the authorities or take her to court or something.

It's very applicable, she's not just someone out on the internet, minding her own business. She's the VP marketing who has claimed without evidence to having marketing degrees, and is responsible for the predatory practices of the company by virtue of her position. If it makes you unhappy, just go call your parents, I'm sure they'd understand and could explain it to you.

I'm reading they're still issuing keys per a game package and order of purchase system

So it looks like if you get the eod package (top tier) you will 100% get an alpha key, it's just a matter of if it comes straight away or if you need to wait a day or two

Also reading the forums I caught this ... totally applicable to the thread

So I had brang up the hacking in Star Citizen thing and weather or not it was the right thing to do for test purpose in this thread sometimes over the last month to which some goon reply with a link to the hacking site that already had hacks for it.

I just want it known, that if Shitizen are going to look at this and use it to blame Goons, that I think of myself more as an associate of Goons as apossed to an actual Goon.

I back this up by having never paid no catte tax.

(I do have a catte I could tax and you would all pet but I'm unsure about how to/where to upload the tax to and how to link - also waitting on Trump to reduce the taxes so I don't have to picture the whole catte, he is large - not Ben large though)

It's an easy thing to say, but with DLC and lovely releases it's impossible to apply that statement perfectly. For example Star Sector is still technically not finished, but it has a ton of content and was definitely worth what I paid. OTOH poo poo games like Sim City were finished but not worth playing.

I'd say a better rule is "Pay for what the game is, not what it could be."

On one hand it's good for hacks to be published while the game is in alpha. On the other hand this hack isn't something complex, it's just down to the fact that there's literally no hack protection at all. Even without this video, it would have been possible to come up with the advice of "hey, how about some hack protection?"
