He didn't waste any money. Probably used trial accounts and/or is playing and will just get a refund when he gets banned. I actually said this would happen back in the discussions about automated monetized tournaments. | ||

This kind of dischacks were used in a mmo I used to play. Basically the guy was using an item which had a texture that wasn't suppose to be in the game. Therefore the game client didn't had it. So when your client was trying to render that item it crashed. Maybe he is doing something similar. Passing some information to the server, the server passes it to your client and your client is not able to compile it, so it crashes or d/c. If Blizzard didn't implement something that checks if the information that passes through their servers is valid, then it's a big fail for Blizzard as this thing are kind of old. | ||

That would be true if it wasn't for section 8 of the EULA allowing Blizzard to monitor your RAM during play, which allows them to see what programs you have running in the background. | ||

The irc chat was pretty lame even by troll standards, the guy is enjoying the thought that other people *might* get mad but has no way to even confirm it (the game ends so suddenly). Fail troll. There's tons of threads filled with people pissed at him on various forums... | ||

But I wonder if there's going to be a LAN support hack in the future. | ||

But I think blizzard should like IP Ban you and Hardware ID ban you if you get caught, then they can't play anymore unless they change IP and hwid, and buy a new cd-key | ||

How should this help? I often run a program which analyzes my incoming network traffic packets individually (for university). And I play games while capturing traffic. Blizzard cannot ban me for this. (Even some firewalls function this way). Blizzard can scan for program signatures (assuming the hacks arent sophisticated enough to use some kind of polymorphism) in RAM and they could ban some people using well known hacks. But they cannot prevent maphacking as a whole as long as the needed data is being transmitted to each player (dont know if this is true, someone stated it in this thread). Just use a hack which isnt well known (no signature in Warden or whatever RAM scanning program they use). On the other hand: If this IRC guy was the real hacker (which I honestly doubt^^) Blizz can do something against it. He says he used some kind of flooding - but because all the traffic for SC2 is routed over the blizz servers (preventing LAN latency even while being in a LAN) they can prevent this kind of flooding. | ||

But anyways i dont think it can affect very much to the people who only takes ladder for training or fun. oh!! you got dischacked!! who cares!?! go to the next game, they dont win anything, they cant play tournaments so its useless... just a ladder record that no one serious cares ![]() | ||
