This is a metaphor, a Christian allegory. The fact that I have to explain to you that Jesus is the Warthog, and the Banana is drepanocytosis is just embarrassing for you.

All those ransomware attacks ended up getting traced and domestic/extraditable attackers were arrested though because feds and interpol have their hands in crypto.

This kid better hope his government isn’t willing to hand him over to the feds for stealing game code like the HL2 guy. He almost ended up boarding a plane that would’ve landed him right in prison except the German police arrested him themselves, hit him with some light penalties, and convinced him to go white hat for them.

I always wondered what happened there. Jesus what a legend.

I don't see how this hurts Rockstar at all lol. Do people think someone is going to make their own GTA game with the stolen code and then when GTA comes out it's not going to sell a billion trillion copies anyway?

It could gently caress up monetisation of the online parts by making it even more trivial to cheat undetected.

This hurts Rockstar because they like money.

Chinese game developers are going to finish the code and put out some cheap gta knockoff

Also competitors can see what new features and ideas take two was working on for their new gta game, aka the market leader in the industry so they can start implanting that stuff in their projects

Yeah that exact angle is dumb no doubt. I mostly feel bad for the people who had the game they’ve been working on revealed by some random jerks online instead of officially in the way they want it shown off. It might seem dumb to outside people but leaks definitely hurt a dev team.

GTA6 will still be a massively high rated money making extravaganza there’s no doubt about that lol

If anything this leak increased the hype om GTA6. For once I'm a bit interested as by the time it releases I should have a new console to play it properly.

If the stolen information includes GTAV (and by extension GTA Online)'s codebase this would completely compromise GTA Online's security and would require a shitload of time to overcome

The interview with him is worth a read. https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2016/06/what-drove-one-half-life-2-super-fan-to-hack-into-valves-servers/?amp=1

He definitely seems like a different sort of person from whoever or whatever group did this Rockstar thing. He was young and curious and admits he didn’t consider that he was making the lives of people he admired a lot more difficult for no reason. That came later with age.

GTA Online never had good cheat detection or safety measures in place anyways. The source code is unlikely to make that any worse. It also depends on how old it is.

I believe Emmanuelle is shit, though Emmanuelle 2, Emmanuelle '77 and Goodbye, Emmanuelle may be very good movies.
Just so everyone is up to speed on the hacker and how they did this:

-They claim to have done the uber hack the other day
-They claim to be 18 years old
-It sounds like they are from UAE based on gtaforum info
-Both the uber hack and the rockstar hack was done by getting into their slack by posing lol as an IT manager lmao and asking two dumbass employees for their login data at both companies lololol
-hacker claims they had no idea a leak for the newest entry in a very popular game that people have been waiting near 10 years to see would go viral.
-hacker claims to have gta5 and 6 source codes but wants 5 digits for gta5sc (hes loving 18 remember, he is lowballing, no idea what hes doing here lol) and he is not selling gta6 but wants rockstar to contact him, assumingly for ransom.
-a cryptobro got scammed out of 100k of apes or whatever the gently caress it is.
-hacker has deleted their telegram because they believe their location to be compromised. Still posting on gtaforums but now bunch of fake accounts have sprung up on twitter fighting each other over who the real hacker is while they claim to "unleash hell" tomorrow if rockstar doesnt pay the ransom. This is real life.

Is there a booty size slider?

Or maybe they're using the horse testicle technology to change her booty size depending on her emotional state?

Or maybe each character has a unique skill just like in GTA5, and hers is Booty Skill?

Makes you think.

The rockstar hacker claiming to be from the UAE is a bit interesting to me because that is on the shortlist of countries where GTA online whales live. It rings as plausible I guess.

i really wanna play this game after watching a digital foundry video on it. seems to be even more graphically impressive than TLOU2 which i thought was a real visual treat.

but there's still no way im paying 70 bucks for it. so can i get dibs on being third on this hypothetical list? i would ship it to whoever wants to be fourth for just the cost of dirt cheap media mail lol

I remember seeing something recently indicating it wasn't canceled. I did a quick google search and I guess Embracer assigned it to another studio. Still, I'd love to see the aborted version.
