Hello, by security issues we mean mainly piracy no matter you don't care to allow anyone to connect directly to your PC. Money is not the goal of this, just a means to an end Moreover, a trully dedicated hacker can make wonders. Now regarding piracy the point was pretty clear, it damages the title, this change won't prevent the game from being pirated anyways. The original LAN and IP code relies on sockets that requires a direct connection to a PC, you indeed need virtualization or opening ports as they are disabled because it compromises your PC security, you can't play on IP nowadays unless you open a security breach to play, as we don't have servers (yet) to prevent this from happening we have to remove this at the moment. Our safety is not compromised by the LAN option. Just state that you are doing it so that more players pay to buy the game and that's it. This is for security against the game being pirated. This is not a change for player security. We hope to deliver new and amazing stuff but without neglecting security, that will always come first and on top of anything else. We are very sorry if after all the things we've given we have to rollback some for your own safety and the title's one.

You can gain much more popularity by improving the game and attracting people, than wasting time plotting against your loyal fans.

Now we take features away for the false premise. Back in 00s developers knew that giving features to the user is important. Originally posted by rusty_dragon:Yes, with same excuse.Īnd you can see how people like when LAN feature is being unfairly taken away from them.
