The more you try to prevent something, the more people will try to break it

The more companies invest to prevent people from pirating games, the more it will actually be pirated

Like spore. EA said they invested tonnes of cash in protecting the game from being pirated

2 days after the release, the game got cracked and illegaly downloaded a million times. i mean hackers just say=Challenge accepted

Its like guns. The more stricter you make a gunlaw, the more people buy guns on the blackmarket, and the more things get out of control

The most effective DRM I've seen lately was FADE for ArmA 2. I was wondering why I couldn't shoot straight in the pirated version, only to learn that it was part of the anti-piracy programs that slowly and steadily decreased the playability of the game. Needless to say, after being annoyed and not able to shoot straight...I bought the game just so I could try it properly.

$45 well spent I might add.

Ultimately if I pirate a game and love it, I will buy it though, for various reasons.

I also like TF2's way of doing it: release small updates every 2 weeks. It must have been a pain for anyone playing the pirated version, surely you would get tired of the constant cracking needed.

Back then anyway. Now it doesnt matter anymore when it comes to TF2.

But that ARMA FADE thing sounds very interesting.

But Battlefield 2 damage system, just meh.
M16 requires 4 body shots vs regular people, 5 shots vs ppl with body armour.
The AK101, which uses the same caliber, only needs 3 vs regular ppl!

Keep in mind, that there is a huge diffrence between the 5.45x39mm and the 5.56x45 NATO round

The 5.45x39 had a slightly shorter range, but damage wise, it is far deadlier then the 5.56
There is a tiny hole at the tip of the bullet, once the round hits a target, the bullet tilts vertically and has an unusual, but damaging pattern of causing flesh trauma. that way, causing a much huger wound then with a 5.56mm nato round

NATO doesnt use such a round, because it is forbidden.

Just read this now. You're thinking of the ak74. The ak101 is an ak74 in 5.56x45 NATO.

Looks like my computer pulls through on the specs  :)

Probably gonna upgrade my ram from 3 gigz to 4 or more. 

And maybe my graphics card from the Nvidia Geforce 9800GT to something a bit more powerful :I

Not totally sure if I'll be getting BF3 though. It looks ok, but ehh. I'll wait till after a few reviews from some of the forumers on here before I buy it, if it gets positive ratings.

Don't get too excited kids...the system specs that were posted are false:
Quote
Alan Kertz, BF3's Senior Gameplay Designer, recently confirmed the false leak by Tweeting, "We have not annouced any specs."

...I hate Steam...
Amen... :)


Speaking of, it appears quite possible that BF3 won't be available on Steam.

Nothing confirmed yet, but it appears EA has to choose between higher sales figures for BF3 or pushing their Origin platform.

I went and pre-ordered it today, getting the Physical Warfare pack (with the Type 88, Fletchette ammo, etc). And I'm getting the PW pack for no other reason than, it was 2 bucks cheaper than the normal BTK version...go figure.  :)



LOL, nice one EA... ;D

And in 18 months we're going to be waiting for FH3 to come out, bitching about how DICE somehow managed to make a crappy engine three times in a row. 

Soon enough we'll see if jumjum's prophesy will come true. ;D

Place your bets now gentlemen.


Frankly, the one thing that always makes me laugh is, there is always a 'but', in this game, plus alot of other games at the moment.

For example:
We have this awesome engine with all these bells and whistles and so many things and it will BRING A NEW DAWN IN MUTLIPLAYER GAMING....

BUT

You cant destroy buildings, fully, because it'll ruin the gaaaaaaaaaaaaaameplaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

You cant destroy all of the lights in the underground, because it'll ruin the gaaaaaaaaaaaaaameplaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

You cant have mutli crewed tanks, because it'll ruin the gaaaaaaaaaaaaaameplaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

You cant one hit kill people with high calibre weapons like IRL, because it'll ruin the gaaaaaaaaaaaaaameplaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
