The point is.... the developer will sell you a product for a few bucks that costs them thousands to develope, if you respect their rights to the product. Tell me how these companies who provide a product you enjoy so much can stay in business if the first one they sell, is copied, changed, and sold or given away. With "you sold it to me I can do whatever I like" attitude.
The people who have hacked the game have put in jeopardy the future sales of possible 3rd party developers of the IL-2 series. And possibly put in jeopardy the code security of the SOW series, delaying development, or even making SOW not worth the effort. Extreme...yes but everything has its consequences.
