Or they can post if they have any insight over the bug itself. You aren't alone though and trust me, together we will get this solved..but these scattered threads like this aren't getting us anywhere (that is, if this update didn't fix the issue). Once you see the official post, please post there and tell all your friends with the same problem to. It will be also a sort of petition, but also with t he information in the list template I'm providing, hopefully all these posts will point glu towards what caused the problem (my guess is last update before this one) and exactly where they can look within the code to fix it.
Thanks..and give me a few minutes to write it up. I'm not trying to one up and one who has already posted about this..hell I have. But it's a bug/suggestion forum and bug reports need to be given in a standard format that developers are a costumed to (and game suggestions too, but they should also have "[SUGGESTION]"prefixed in the title so you can easily search through bugs and suggestions by searching the titles.
That is for posting this and confirming once again that it is a huge issue. And don't forget to add your post as well to the official post once it's up and I'll do the same. I'm a programmers so I'm hoping that if I follow protocol that I'd tell programmers under me to follow, that they will listen (and avoid immature posts and people just cussing them out.
Thanks for posting this! Big things we need to know are device, OS, and to ensure everyone is running the most recent version of the game. Aside from that, we do know that there are many unrooted devices that are flagged as rooted due to other programs/packages, which is what is causing this. I am trying to get a full list from the devs of the programs that are causing it.
With my solution, you attack the problem by securing the game's data so that even if decrypted by a hacker, it becomes useless to them because once they encrypt the data so that it can be read again on the server side or within the game, the checksums wwon't match and you can them do with suspected hacker as you see please.
We are using this technique in a game I am helping to code on and so far nobody has been able to cheat the game, and we are even using a very weak encryption scheme as such to not slow game speed down at all. The key is that data is encrypted, but during each encryption/decryption extra bytes are added or taken away from the file (usually in dummy numerical name/value pairs. This happens on both the server and client side (on client side it's handled in game code) and check sums are calculated, synchronized, then stored in a database. If these checksums don't ever match, we know that game data has been modified and by who. There is more complexity to it, but tthat's the general outline.
We don't believe in punishing anyone on a rooted device because why punish somebody for having complete ownership over their phones? Diablo II was on a PC wherever anyone could modify files. In single player mode yes, hacking was easy using a hex editor. In online play I NEVER saw somebody in fun runeword or elite unique who had hacked...go figure.
Rooting ≠ Hacking ... Rooting ≠ Gaining Administrator Access (good analogy)
Either that or he loves to read his own writing. Nice essays.
Might as well, ...can't at the game (join any competitive guilds).
Do you ever post a reply without including an essay containing your life story? Just curious
Sorry if it aggravates you. Really am, but it's easier to scroll past posts than to click the reply button and take the time to type. And if you think I'm the elephant in the room here (the problem in plain sight everyone is ignoring), then I am very sorry.
I was referring to the dozens of huge paragraphs of unrelated side-stories you include in all your posts. Ever heard of a phrase called Keep It Simple Stupid? (KISS) I think that would go a long way in your case. I need a nap after powering through any one of your replies. You're repeating the same comments about this root/jailbreak issue all over every thread, in a long-winded, exaggerated, side-tracked, mountain of paragraphs. I hope your code doesn't run on like your posts, that would be pretty inefficient don't you agree?
Yeah, some of my english papers are shorter than his posts. I agree that this isn't Twitter, but the 8 paragraph stuff is kind of annoying.
I've given up on that though. Unless something is going to hurt them in the pockets, they aren't going to worry about it. I just went to Google, told them what happens and linked to this Support forum. I got back everything I had spent.
