Ncsoft Copyright Announce


Recommended Posts

Excellent idea. deMEV has already started it: http://demev.ru/main/?p=457

 

PS: and make code open source, right? :D

 

Well here, it's a real ripoff :P. NCSoft will close it simply because you used "chronicle" word.

Right, so not the stolen assets, but the word, alright, alright. Great subterfuge.

blatant copy != stolen. And tbh it can't be worst than the original (which goes wrong and wrong with time).

 

You haven't enough chinese blood running in your veins.

I don't help enemies of my glorious nation, scum ! Moreover when they die for nothing, you didn't lose your master or dishonored. You're just a spy sent by japaneses to steal the secret of fireworks.

Well, they created the game client and server side. Writing emulator and using their client is a theft without two words. If you can write entire server, just write own game - profit.

On the other hand, the official server sucks ass, i wonder what will peeps invent to go through this clownfest and keep havin private s3rbid0rZ :)

 

And by the way,

 

"the Infringing Code no doubt was obtained by interrupting the encrypted communication that exists between the consumer-side and server-side of NCSOFT’s proprietary game code"

 

What does it mean? They dont like the fact that someone reversed the protocol and created a server for that, and thats basically it?

you are wrong. There has a new term which very clearly states that emulating now is just as illegal as client modding. Sure they might never give a shot for a server but if some angry kid reports a server the odds are not in their favour. And that sucks

The solution is one, just make a game like lineage2 but find another name. But I don't think so that ncsoft will make this, some players don't like to play In l2 official. Lineage will lose many people's with this way....

Sounds like they are just scorching Earth.

 

If they can't have the players, no one can.

 

Sucks to be such a shit company. Private servers have (or had) the potential to offer something different, they target a completely different audience.

I dunno, I kind of see their reasoning behind this. I mean I won't lie, if all major private servers died, I probably would go to offi. And you know if at least 1 in every 100 players would think think the same as me, the retail would be crowded as hell once again  :not bad:

this wont stop the private servers ... believe me... Ncsoft gains nothing by doing this btw. Im pretty sure they wont gain new players by shutting the code sites.

    • Well, sorry not sorry for resurrecting old topic, but I believe it's ultimately stupid to implement license checks like Vilmis did 🙂   private static String url = "jdbc:mysql://185.80.128.233/" + getData("Zm9ydW1fZGI="); private static String username = getData("bXJjb3B5cmlnaHQ="); private static String password = getData("Y29weXJpZ2h0XzEyMw=="); con = GlobalDB.getInstance().getConnection(); PreparedStatement statement; statement = con.prepareStatement("SELECT field_6 from core_pfields_content WHERE member_id = ?"); statement.setInt(1, Config.FORUM_USER_ID); ResultSet rset = statement.executeQuery();   This awesome way of coding things leaves us with base64-encoded credentials and DB exposed and accessible globally 😉 Btw he checks his licensing data from some plugin generated table his forum uses. Vilmis took action and ensured that mrcopyright user would have only needed accesses and rights for this operation. But he forgot to ensure that his INFORMATION_SCHEMA database would not be exposed and readable... That leads us to fully readable server variables like version used (10.1.26-MariaDB-0+deb9u1 - pretty ancient DB and OS, I'd assume). From here you can go south and do some kinky stuff, if you want and have knowledge for that. But who cares, right?   Ooh, table core_pfields_content field_6 is IP address which is checked by FORUM_USER_ID. Yep, you can query all IP addresses there (124 of them right now) and also do whatever you want with them! 🙂  The most fun part? Files source has been shared what, more than 2 years ago?  Vilmis still uses very same credentials and never changed it after sources exposure - who cares. Although, "sources" may be way too strong word here. If anyone still use paid Orion versions, I'd suggest packing your shit and leaving immediately, or at least fix this incompetent fool caused problems. It's obvious Vilmis don't care or maybe doesn't even know from the first place how to solve this problem (hint hint - tiny PHP Rest API microservice which would do absolutely the same but without exposing sensitive data?). By doing that, he exposes his infrastructure and YOUR data, and he does that for more than 2 years now 🙂 Developer of century!
