    15-year old Stabs Bully 11 Times at Bus Stop, Gets Away With It

    Thank you for reasoning with people who are obviously trolling. There is no point defending this offensive, criminal idiot. You can argue that the 11y should have asked someone for help, but I guess they will create that environment now where you can feel safe. Simple people like to learn from...

    15-year old Stabs Bully 11 Times at Bus Stop, Gets Away With It

    I think the most people can't imagine this type of needless escalation. They seem not to live in areas where this type of behavior is "usually" happening. Why did the school, the community allow a 15y a) to "gang up" and b) to start harassing 11y olds? Where were the families here? I'm sure...

    Diablo 3 "Always Online" Requirement Helps Fight Hackers, Says Blizzard

    If I look at the net and forums, I could guess: to remove the "overzealot" critics .) People who don't care and who are simply happy to have quality entertainment at their fingers are the 'new black'. You can like that or not. Maybe they hope the "critics" simply go away, and they will...

    Diablo 3 "Always Online" Requirement Helps Fight Hackers, Says Blizzard

    Based on the current state of things, Starcraft2 is playable locally with some "help" from the net. Playing "on line" is different beast, and I wont go there. It took a year to make a "lan emu" to work, somehow. Questionable sources, of course. Instead of pounding Blizzard, I would rather...

    Diablo 3 "Always Online" Requirement Helps Fight Hackers, Says Blizzard

    When the whole logic (like Item IDs, AI of the monsters etc) is on the server side and you add the server side to the single player, you *can* find out how it works. The only way is to have a completely *different* software design how you do it in single player, hence: the complete new...

    Diablo 3 "Always Online" Requirement Helps Fight Hackers, Says Blizzard

    They claim that they didn't want to release the server code to the public to make cheating/hacking harder. Which is not a false claim - there are two main ways to design a game like Diablo: a) you write a serverclient out as single player/local server solution b) you write a...

    Diablo 3 "Always Online" Requirement Helps Fight Hackers, Says Blizzard

    TL2 is only _singleplayer_ in OFFLINE-Mode: http://www.torchlight2game.com/about I think we should be fair and not claim things that other don't deliver either, like "multiplayer in local network" or other stuff claimed in this thread. What you do with your friends is your business. The...
