Hacks are non existent in MMO's, sometimes they are hacked but it is very rare.

I've played one MMORPG; Dark Age of Camelot. It was fun for a while, until I saw people running around with completely hacked chars.

Blizzard does have a talent for attracting hackers.. Confused

and they also have a talent for getting banny when it comes to hacked CD-keys

Guys, don't forget about the GM (Game Master) who are the player that try to catch the cheaters, they have the best equipment in the game and they can see what you wear... If they found that you cheat, your just dead...

Don't forget that Blizzard will bring us better services and servers, because we are actually going to pay them extra money beside the game cost each months...

They will most likely make the different server cost different.
Like a 500kb/s cost less than a big 5Mb/s and if you think about 1.000.000 users online or more then 500kb/s dosen't sound as good as a 5Mb/s server
(don't know about the speed, can be more.)
So they will let the demanding highspeed, low latensy users will end up paying more then the ones who don't really care for high speed.

They're going to go with the cheapest server they can afford to keep user costs down, but once the game's popularity explodes, they'll need 3 times bigger server = much more money from us, the drones.

As long as Blizzard can avoid all the tcp-ip packet related cheats, which Battle.Net is overflown with, things would look better.

Also, the reason Diablo2 is so hacked, its because players are fed up wth the game, and Blizzard (and I totally understand them) dont put many resources into maintaining a "free" online game.

With WoW, part of the montly cost will be paying Blizzard resources that are dedicated hack preventers. Blizzard also say they have a very good "from scratch" homemade server technology. I think WoW will be relativly hack free. (Thats what I tell myself, makes me glad !!!) Smile

Question 1: Why hack/cheat on a online RPG

Question 2: When they are warning you sop much about hacking/cheating who would dare a completely IP ban

Question 3: The cheat busters have the best weapons on the game, but if you have a cheated account then you can most likely have made the weapon to 100times stronger (one shot death) weapon that kills the busters.

Answer 1: If you are always scared of losing then you might just find the a place on a huge german site that tells you how to cheat. All other 99,99% are happy with the challenge.

Answer 2: Hackers who have 90% of the entire trained muscular system inside the fingertips and are logging on at 10 different IP's dayly.

Answer 3: The hack busters have the best items and if the person were cheating that hard they can always just enter the username( and IP) on the ban list. Very Happy

They hack because they can, or they hack because they get provked, or they hack because they can sell ites on Ebay and make lots of money.
Everyone that hakcs also are Twisted Evil

IDIOTS !

I remember when the "Windforce" diablo2 bow went for 1500$ IRL money on Ebay. That was sick. In a world with 5 billion people, theres much sickness...

Well i dunno it shouldent get hacked unless it has alot of bugs witch hackers can manipulate but blizzard never do a scrappy job of sorting bugs out so i think that wow would be 99% safe from hackers unless of corse some big massive monster hacker comes along and just downs the whole lot tho blizzard could still beat them befor they could but with all the beta tests there shouldent be no hackers the only people who might be able to hack it are the creators themselves but yer rite cause there gunna hack there own game lol oh one question do you get gods in the game? so like u can get special mega rare god items like armor and stuff?
