Is there any info on anti-piracy measures?
just seen a few piraters, "IGGGAMES" there should be a anti-piracy measure.

So far what they said they wanna do is force a convict/prison inmate costume on pirates and maybe attemp to alter their stats to make the game impossible to win (like giving them no damage or only 1 HP to make them go K.O. constantly from the slightest bump against a wall).
Basically they won't remove pirates but they'll try to make them easy to identify and turn their game as unplayable and non-fun as they can (it'll also help spot them if someone makes a Forum post saying "I can't change my costume outside of a prison outfit and I get K.O. in 1 hit! HELP!!").

It would, but for now only the convict costume is confirmed, we don't know if they'll add the stat downgrade aswell as there could be issues that might arise from that.

Ah thats fine as well. I am always looking for 'naughty boy names' like IGGGames and VSETop to beat the crap out of them anyway. At least the torrent bois don't have an advantage over you (yet).

Edit:
There also seem to be a lot of players called ''tuttop'' and ''user''. Probably piratebois too.

This idea is fantastic and would be perfect against pirates who think the game can not be annoying
