I can't even access the forums still. Still says it's down for security buffing

EDIT: After refreshing the page 5 minutes later I see it's updated... figures

[Sarsipius]

I'm just hoping the forums do come back because wow they will make for some fun reading for a few days.

I expect mostly about the hackers and lack of Sergey presence. Most likely any threads made will be deleted and the OPs will be banned

True but it's more what the defenders of the game will have to say that I think will make for compulsive reading.

Forumz at its finest!

Most comments to begin with will be "great job Hammerpoint for making me feel safer, I can see you're working really hard, etc etc."

The usual BS

*yawns* This is their excuse to take your money and run people. In six months that notice will still be up and nobody will hear anything from anyone associated with that scam again!

i got the feeling there will be rages burst out when Forum is back, Prepare some Coke and Popcorn guys >:D

[BSNB]

I dought it comes back and if it does there won't be any more payments for anything. Why do I think this? Because I read on a few Russian hack forums that there are flaws in the game engine that allows hackers to take advantage that can't be simply solved with a few lines of code.

This has been a humbling experience for us.

Translation: Karma has finally caught up with us but please you must continue throwing your money at us, we need as much of it as possible to fill our large bags of cash before we flee to some tropical island. We promise to remember all of you derpfaces...erm, loyal fans

Sadly, peeps WILL continue throwing their money at this nonsense because cheap games with (omfg!!) zombies make some gamers turn off their braaaaains and open their wallets >.<

Anyway, this is entertaining as heck so yeah *eats popcorn*

Oh wow, the hackers really did get login details for the game as well. The post by the hacker seemed a bit fuzzy regarding what exactly they got access to.

Hey, Hammerpoint, good on you for finally ceasing to ♥♥♥♥ around and admitting it. It does seem like they've at least made the effort of contracting a PR/lawyer type person who knows what to say in these situations.

I would trust the words that reflect poorly on events. No reason for them to make things appear worse than they are. I would not at all trust that they're dealing with the situation as professionally as portrayed in this message.

[Siresly]

Encrypting login details means ♥♥♥♥. HOW were the login details encrypted?

[Siresly]

No Payment information Exposed.

All payments are made through a third party and not through our system. Therefore there was absolutely no exposure of your payment or billing information of any kind.

I seem to recall this not always being the case? Didn't they at some point handle payments directly themselves? Or did they always use Xsolla?

I dont think WarZ will survive this.
Not only the game severely lacking in the gameplay department but now it's also a hazard to your internet security.

I really wanted to be more constructive than that but in reality, all we can do now is grab some popcorn and watch everything burn.

the ones who supported a scam are now going to be scammed themselves

how fitting
