Bruthol, that'd be copyright infringement
and you'd get your buns sued >=O

and if you were able to find weaknesses
with the server side data, how would you
be able to use them in the online version?
even then, i think Loftar would notice um

BECAUSE UNLIKE SOOOOOME PEOPLE! i have
faith in our devs

+1, we just need to wait a few months =).

You never know, some parameter not sanitized, some sql injection...
Even if Loftar would notice it, if the perpetrator is using some proxy chain like tor, he wouldn't be punished in most of cases.
And well, judging by the number of queries i guess are played each second, I doubt it would be easily noticed.
Man each time you do a single shit, there are queries. The position you moved to, the water left into your flask after a drink, the position you left that boat, ...
And almost 1000 people do that when server are online.

I must admit I tried some hack stuff (i would have report any weakness, don't ban me ^^). And shit, this loftar seems to be good and left nothing with a hole behind him.
But again, you never know. Trying to hack "black box" (when you don't have an access to the sources) is way more complicated than hacking "white box" with a real sources audit.
And even if there are no weakness like injections SQL, there are probably some DDoS made easy.
So someone could just make a tool and crash the server when he feels unsafe in game.

Regarding social though, HnH LAN servers with a x50 multiplier on LP or something?:).
Mh, similar to like, missions or something, werent things like that planned some time ago?

I'd +1 this, but some of the peaceful guys would only play that and there'd be no one else to get stuff from. >__>
So, neutral. And it'd be single player too, so there'd be about half as much stuff to do. (how are you supposed to take down trolls with no friends? Not that I've ever seen one )

Offline mmo, lol.

+1 to this idea but our beloved lazy developers will not even try to make a offline version of h&h
they now working on salem or are too drunked to stand up ...

They've never said they were planning to make an offline HnH, jackass.
