They also recently admitted to loading other players entire profile including their stash, and other content that they “have” which you would have zero access to, into memory on your PC, anytime that user loads into your zone.

It’s why you can’t have more than four stash tabs, because other people’s computers would be negatively affected.

My developer friend tersely summarized this as “lazy programming”. To put it as briefly as I can, in his view, it’s likely that all of your stuff including inventory and stash are all part of your character object/class/whatever, so to load other players, your client has to load that character object, complete with everything they’re carrying and everything that they have in their stash.

IMO, this means you can mod the game to dump a list of everything another player is carrying/holding in their stash.

Seems like they have minimal, if any, separation between clients, other clients, and by proxy, their servers. So rules need to be enforced at the client level, so the other users and the servers can stay protected.

Are they trying to nuke their game and community? Cause at this point, you gotta wonder if it’s intentional.

I can’t speak for Acti-Blizz but Ubisoft regarded people finding and using exploits or even power imbalances as cheating and a banhammering offense if they got too much loot for their efforts.

Finding the exploits is part of the whole point.

Imagine banning people for playing the game the way you created it.

Modding (as long as it’s not hacker modding in like RDR2) makes the game personalized and so much more fun.

I wanted to play Diablo but Blizzard support hasn’t taken off the keyfob authenticator off my account, despite repeated requests. So I guess I don’t get to play anyway. Now I really feel like I’m not missing out on anything.

OOTL on RDR2. What’s going on, just scummy hackers?

I wish that shitty Diablo patches would result in me getting my money back.
