fucking swedish and their raiding culture

[SoM]

Problem is, movie/game publishers know their movies/games are being pirated, and I'm sure they'll know to what extent. This means that pirating something gives off the signal that there is a demand for something. Combine that with the thickness of the skulls in question and they'll never ask themselves why people are pirating. Instead they'll be searching for ways to translate said demand into sales.

I thought they'd set-up a distributed network after one of the previous raids to make taking the site offline difficult? If all the mirrors relied on the master server rather than sharing the database between themselves (you know, like how torrents work..) it seems like poor resiliency design.

I thought Usenet had gone downhill nowadays due to everything being corrupted due to DMCA takedowns? .

It's vary rare for me to buy a day one game due to the fact that, as Kracus mentioned, they seem to needs patches and all sorts straight away. Also the fact that the prices drop like a stone and I hate buying things that are not needed as such and then two weeks later it being half the price it was before.

[SoM]

cause ur a moron, never buy shit on day 1 son

[seremtan]

unless you want bragging rights, which many people do, hence the pricing strategy

What's been pissing me off though of late is paying for a brand new fucking game and then having to wait fucking hours for patches and shit.

Actually paying for brand new fucking games is a total mug's game.

Alien Isolation's already 50% off, patched and DLC bombed.

I'll just not understand the 'day one' mentality with new games. I guess half of it is a willingness to gag on down on the hype and forgetting your other hundreds of games exist (be them from sales, shareware, freeware, emulated - any chump with a PC has a plethora of games at their fingertips) for fear of 'missing out' or some bullshit.

Patience is indeed a virtue. In this such land of corporation cuntism, spewing incessant and shamelessly spurious marketing bullshittery into our faces on a constant basis, it's also a prime marker for intelligence.

I don't like buying day 1 games except for racing games. Racing games unfortunately these days have day 1 cars you get and shit and sometimes those cars when properly tuned are the best cars to own for a particular class. It does suck I agree but I'm pretty competitive in racing games and I don't like missing out. I also find that it's more difficult to get your name on the leaderboards if you haven't been playing the game since it was released.

Game publishers have you by the balls

[Κracus]

They do, it's a good thing I like their games.

Online gaming leaderboards

[Κracus]

Yeah... online gaming is a hobby of mine. Imagine that. Must be a huge surprise for you cause you know... it's not like you're posting on a forum dedicated to a game or anything.

[Doombrain]

Bullshit

[Captain]

Virtual gaming leaderboards (a race to see who can hack the first 0.001 second time trial result) were made for people incapable of real-world accomplishments.

Like Kracass for example.

[obsidian]

Racing games: the one place where Kracus really does own a GTI.

[ALMighty]

I torrent Real Time with Bill Maher.
Now who's gonna tell me the solution to everything.

[Κracus]

I'm sure I'd destroy anyone here on a race track whether it's real life or virtual.
