Link to Xsyons client revealed

[dragonstripes]

Yeah but unless i'm mistaken the reason they wouldn't want this is because it slows down the downloads for everyone that can get in. Flooding the downloader with 1,000's of requests will slow it to a trickle and for what? You're right they still can't log in. Then the people that can log in have to wait forever for the download thus slowing down the beta testing process. Hassle...

Jooky, Hide the client behind a login please. It can still be open download when you want it to be, just make people register first. They will have to register at least a login name to sign in no matter what.

At least give yourself the option to control access.

Maybe a solution would be to give each individual a kind of serialezed link specific to that user, so if they leaked it you could deny their access to the game and send "employees" to their place of residence for re-education.

eh? eh?

Yeah ok well maybe not the re education part but at least break some bones.

OH and youtube it!

Your suggestion would be useful to identify the abuser.
Actually, it would be easy to use the querystring, e.g.:

http://www.imaginary.url/xsyon_client.zip?id=8473284923

But... to be honest, we all already know who did this
The problem is to keep out people who can't get in because they are not registered "citizens" and waste their time, bandwidth, and legitimate downloaders time...

Threatening to break some guys legs or hack into his hard drive because he posted a link to download the game client is a tad overreacting :laugh:

It's not as if anyone who downloaded that client will have access to the game anyway, so who gives a shit?

I don't believe any threats were ment, more of a joke than anything..

What did matter though, is the client is also connected to the websites server.. When it was being mass downloaded the website was slow as dirt. All clear now
