Pirated Version Accessing Public Sections
Developers, Please: fix the Online mode of the game, only for those who bought the game officially!

Some players are downloading the pirated version of the game and are able to play Online. There are even videos on the internet, showing this, and the pirate version is able to access the online mode normally, and not only in local mode, but in PUBLIC.

As a teenager on PS2, I also practiced piracy, oftentimes, but, for more than 10 years I started working with Video and Audio Creations, and I started to understand what content creators are like, this plague of piracy. For the Trolls, dont come crying, original programs are super affordable, music only Spotify and Movies only Netflix. Steam and Live Sale is there too! Only those who do not want to! My Live and Steam library speaks for itself... ¬¬

As a professional, as a Creator and as a consumer, I ask to become aware of this problem and solve it, making possible the access to servers or public sections, only for those who have supported and acquired the game legally, and if they wish, they have access only to "Unofficial" sections.

It's sad because I've been supporting Team17 since Worms a few years ago and I understand that piracy is sometimes good for the market, to control some company's attitudes, but it must have its negatives and one of them is not having Access to online and online official content, which should be exclusive to those who are within the legality, providing support and acquiring the product properly.

Trolls can do as much as you want... I will not even afford to respond to childishness. I just ask that the developers be aware of this fact and try to privatize the official public sections

Piraters
So then...any plan on cracking down on the piraters who are playing online in multiplayer? It's not hard to spot them when they all have the same Steam name: CODEX.

If you cannot be bothered to even post what the issue is, then you have no issue.

Hey All

Thank you for the reports regarding sightings of pirated users joining your online games.

We obviously want to remove these users from being able to join legal owners of the game and our team are looking into this issue now

Thanks!
