The hacking of the code is by definition a threat to online security. It opened everything - and nowadays a laggy connection might result in someone being accused of cheating. Not the cheating per se is the problem - it's the suspicions that the hack roused because players can no longer be certain that everyone has the same settings.



You either missed the post I quoted above or you're making the very assumptions you accuse others to make. You interpret the lack of a grand statement as a quiet endorsement of someone hacking the code? Well ... let me make another assumption about your assumption: You say that, because it fits your agenda. So - did I hit the bullseye?

According to what I know about Maddox Games they are up to their noses in work for SOW, Oleg included, so they don't have time to populate some online message boards and cater to the information detox of some flight sim fans. The fact is for them Il-2 is history already and SoW is the future. You have three guesses which one has more priority.

Dear csThor,

I was thinking exactly at that very post from Mr Oleg when I did my statement. The accent is put on "online cheating", not on modding per se. Moreover there are clues, found elsewhere, that modding (not haking, nor cheating) isn't disliked by the game owners, for the reasons that I tried to expose. Your hypothesis to explain the lack of a formal stance by UBI/Oleg/1C (no time, other priorities) doesn't sound very convincing, sorry to say that. It just takes the time of a post, 10 minutes.

As far as my agenda, in case you're interested, it is made by one simple point: the pleasure to discuss with clever people on facts and opinions about a game that I greatly appreciate.

For the rest it's enough to say that I play 100% online, and in servers with anticheat = 2, that is *no mods allowed * ... and I never saw strange things happening over there.

Best regards,
Insuber

PS: I deliberately ignore the rather tedious personal attack, it's much better to focus on ideas and opinions and keep the discussion on an higher level
