Trapped In America

Yeah, Denuvo is just a pain to crack. It’s not UNcrackable, just a giant pain. Not to mention the methed out psycho that was cracking them has probably gone to rehab or something.

The executables are basically running in an encrypted VM and require multiple keys from Denuvo’s servers to decrypt and run (hence why they want SecureBoot on now). With breaking the VM being the biggest hurdle as they’re each running their own pseudo-machine-code that the VM translates during gameplay. Meaning you can’t just make a universal unpacker/decrypter/patcher type tool that spits raw x86 executables out for you. Nope, it all has to be done “by hand” now. At least from the translation step and on.

Umm…

Yet* :P

It’s ego and they actually think they can win against cheat makers. But like it or not, there will always be cheats, for the same reason there will always be cracked copies of their games.

If it runs, it can be cracked. -An old 0day saying

PS - Just let us have our own dedicated servers again. Then we can just banhammer a bitch, instead of relying on a stupid lobby vote system and a report button.

Because they don’t need one. They just send a polite email asking for everything on Person X and they get an email back with EVERYTHING that person’s ever done on any of Google’s services.

Problem solved. No Backdoor or Warrant needed.
