When I'm considering buying a game, or even downloading and playing a free game, if I read reviews which state, 'game is now overrun by hackers,' I have no interest in playing it - and I think that's true for many people.įrom my experience, when developers and game communities make a clear statement regarding hacking and cheating - stating those who engage in it will be unequivocally banned, etc. In a multiplayer game like this one, one of the biggest 'cons' a game can have is a community rife with hackers. While the intent may seem to be the opposite, this essentially gives people a free pass to use hacks in the game, without consequences. I have to be honest, this is pretty disappointing.
