But warping in colossus/mothership? that would be cool, someone should make a map like that. | ||

Like I said before, it can't be that hard to design the system so that you generate a hash from critical game files and then validate it via bnet. If a single byte is modified, you don't get to play. | ||

The server only sends what information is necessary to the client, thus preventing the hack in the first place. | ||

And that a part of that code remains somewhere and he is abusing it. | ||

Anyone who has ever used the infestor burrow/cast technique or magic boxing is just exploiting the game's coding. None of those were intended either. Did you just really compare this to using magic box? | ||

Yeah, I too am wondering where they got the immortal warp-in animation from. Either way this is just sad. Why the heck do people go out of their way to develop all these hacks instead of just playing custom games =\. | ||

In HoN how many new units can enter the screen at once? like 5? What happens if you scan a 200/200 zerg army in SC2 with that system in place? Like 10 seconds of lag as all the data gets transferred. Even stuff like zergling run-by's would cause huge lag. | ||

Right now, the only way to viably use Immortals for anything but defense is to use Warp prisms. | ||

Guys ... think! Seriously! Or at least read the thread ... do you think that the warp in animation was hacked into the client? Why should it show on normal "non-hacked" clients then? And what does this have to do with BNet? All that this hack does, is that it triggers a command coded in the client in order to use a feature that has been there since alpha and just never been removed (maybe because they were pondering whether they should reactivate it some day). This can be very well done at runtime and is most definitely not related at all to Bnet design. Sure, it is sloppy coding, but only on behalf of the client team. | ||

Spreading out your units through an intentional game feature is not abusing the game...'magic boxing' is not an exploit... | ||

Thats BS. All that needs to be transmitted to the server are the player's actions. The clients will sync the game to the server's version. Server decides what information to send back to client, it really doesn't take much bandwidth to do that even with 200 units. | ||
