The Conduit 'virtually unprotected' - hacker

The Conduit - Image 1High Voltage's The Conduit is apparently vulnerable to hackers. This is the diagnosis of hetoan2 -- a hacker himself.

According to him, he discovered that "Everything is virtually unprotected" when he dumped the game's data and used a remote debugging program to open it up. "All values can be edited fairly easily, and there's no virtual sign of an attempt at hiding values, fixing bugs, or preventing online hackers."

Both offline and online codes are completely identical as well, so there should be no difficulty at all in accessing both. "The only difference is in the online mode the game sends the variables in real-time to their server.

And what do you know, he's done his civic duty and released some patch codes, initially altering them as well so that they can corrupt the save files of anyone using them. And what's more, he is now working with High Voltage to catch those cheaters. Their MAC addresses will then be sent to Nintendo for banning.

Guess the old adage does ring true: it takes one to know one.

» Ok.

1. There are working online hacks.. I tested them out myself.



2. hetoan2 is a *****ing jew. He doesn't care about people hacking online, his morals are very grey and he's only doing this for fame. Only a script kiddie would fall for his game save corrupting code.



3. There are ways to bypass Nintendo's banning system. (Mario Kart did this).



4. The Conduit generally sucks ass. I played most of the single player, played some multiplayer, hacked a bit and now I'm done with it. There's seriously no reason to buy this game if you've played any FPS in the last 10 years.

Telling someone to stfu is equally insulting. No need to get sand in your vag over this, so why don't you stick with the topic mmkay??

I know hetoan (sorta) from the efnet irc and all he wants is attention 24/7 he's also the guy who came up with the fake galaxii exploit.



If you see make sure you call him hetona, he freaking hates that
