Anybody got a magnet?
How do those magical things work anyway I wonder 😏Dot org gamedrive
lmao they uploaded the files without encryption on steam
I wonder if they let Copilot to do the upload.
And that’s bad because… That’s what GOG does
Because it was supposed to be a preload.
The way those generally work is that the entire game in encrypted so you can download it early and when the release date comes they release the encryption key.
Except this time they uploaded the game unencrypted.That is really stretching the definition of “leak”. Leak implies some kind of malfeasance, like someone “on the inside” releasing the files in an unauthorized fashion. Sounds like they did exactly what they intended to do, where they intended to do it, someone fucked up, perhaps unknowingly, and oopsied the timeline of encryption. It could have even been intentional to garner attention and boost sales.
This is more of a leak like… They forgot to seal the bottom of the boat, now they “have a leak”.
I wonder if this is ever going to happen intentionally with some kind of “phone home” system to slap people with lawsuits. Has that ever been done before? I know similar things have happened with antipiracy measure but those usually only effect the actual game. It seems like something big companies would want to do.
That would be stripped out by the cracking team before release. The scene doesn’t forget to test things, you know (also many countries where cracked games are hosted/more prevalent are places where foreign copyright law doesn’t matter much).
I wish real life driving hadn’t ruined car games for me.
How?
Nothing astonishing, just driving long hauls every day for several years, almost every day stuck behind traffic, snow, landslides, landslide remediation crews, trains, etc. I feel tired and stressed out just looking at cars sometimes. I still have to drive a decent amount and I still want a small and cheap minimalist everyman’s EV as long as I expect to need a car, but I really wish I could just stop one day and maybe not dread them so much.
Interesting take. The first thing I thought you meant was that you can’t get the feel of a real car in a game.
Wouldn’t arcade games like Need for Speed be unrealistic and different enough to not feel stressed out, or same problem?
You’d assume fun car games (especially beamng) would let you blow off some steam
