Torrent worries
-
Hi, genuine question cause I don't know how it works exactly.
Is the Plutonium staff ok with providing torrents for the games?I've played a couple of games with revived dedicated servers and they usually steer away of anything that even remotely resembles piracy out of fear that the game company might shut down the projects on the grounds of "endorsing piracy" or something like that.
I've had the time of my life with Plutonium and would be very sad to see it getting shut down.I finally completed the Origins easter egg with randoms for the first time (it would often crash on ps3) and playing Der Riese with randoms was ironically like using a time machine.
One guy couldn't speak english, another had 500 ping and would move 1 frame at a time and the last one would type in chat about leaving a zombie alive at least 10 times per round.
It really felt like playing back when zombies just came out.
And now apparently support for bo1 is also being considered so I can finally cross "beating dead ops arcade with randoms" off the bucket list.Sorry for the tangent but just really wanted my wonderful experience with the Plutonium project.
Hopefully, you guys have everything under control and I can look forward to more fond memories in the future. -
Koblasco everything is under control yes.
The games are very old and Activision don't care about games below BO3 basically.Plus when you see the state of the games on Steam with WaW having no online anymore and the other games being full of cheaters they should actually pay Plutonium for fixing and improving their games if you ask me.
The team is very careful about this and (this is just my opinion) I'm pretty sure the team wouldn't mind removing support for non Steam files and checking for ownership if it was ever required since getting games for free isn't the goal

That is very good to hear!
Thanks again for making this a reality!
