Ubisoft Uses Hacks to Fix Their Game
The last thing you’ll see before Ubisoft steals your hacks.
Some clever internet detectives have discovered that Ubisoft are up to some shifty shenanigans.
It seems a recent patch for the PC version of Rainbow Six Vegas 2 (version 1.03) caused issues with direct download copies of the game. So, being crafty internet users, members of the official Ubisoft forums figured a way around the problem: an illegal No-CD crack created by a group called “RELOADED.”
The crack fixed the glitch, but Ubisoft forum moderators lifted their mighty ban hammers in a threatening manner and started issuing warnings and deleting posts.
Not to be outdone by the masses, Ubisoft came up with a patch to remedy the situation like any good company should.
This is where the plot thickens. Some gamers decided to dig a little deeper into Ubisoft’s fix, and what they found was shocking, terrifying and downright blog worthy. Turns out the official patch was actually the same illegal RELOADED patch they had been culling earlier.
I can just hear Ubisoft now: “We would have gotten away with it if it hadn’t been for those meddling gamers!”
