Denuvo Defeated. When Will it be Removed?

[The Sad Man]

Been wanting to buy this for ages, but have been waiting for the Denuvo to be removed. Now that it's cracked, and therefore only punishing legit customers, is there any plan to take the crap out?

Is that true?

Yes, it is true, im a pirate myself and i can join both cracked and legit lobbies, its nice.

Cracked copys can not join legit rooms (they can run around in the lobby but can't join rooms from legit accounts). I've just confirmed that with my legit copy against a Voksi test.

From the technical aspect this makes no sense and from research I still didn't find any footage about a successful connection with a legit account. Ask your friend to record both the match and the profile view of his opponent because so far all accessible clues lead to my result.

As ever, "Works on my machine." blows away all others as most valued comment.

Deny the nature of the beast all you like. Plead ignorance. Make apologies.

Not at all. i'd never heard of Denuvo up until about a year ago. All I read in forums posts was how horrible it was so i wanted to know wtf it was and went and actually looked. Whole lot of "this might could possibly one day maybe cuase this negative effect".... but not much in terms of sold actual facts to those people straight trashing it. I was curious, I read up, formed my own opinion. which is I don't care either way, it's never affected me and from what I've looked into most of the negativity about it is pretty much bullshut.

They don't have the id profile number you get from a legit purchace linked to your steam account, (family shared also gets these since its still legit but tied to their steam profile)
The lobby matcher will not let them join, as they don't have a valid ID to join anything with, that ID is needed to keep track of your replays\last match records and BP the only things that don't go in your save.

Nothing to stop them from Spoofing someones legit ID tho, I dunno how but i'm sure they'll figure it out.

Eg the ID i'm talking about is the one people are complaining about everyone with everyone being numbers for names and they can't shut it off since they removed the lobby options switch to do it last patch.

This is probably why they removed the switch now, as it's the only valid reason they would.
The thing is that switch can still be activated via the savefile, hence the people with the numbers problems.
They then can get ID's from that.

This is a bad thing if thats the way there doing it, it means people who actually bought the game will have their records messed up. They could even drain all your BP using your ID.

They use the PayDay 2 Demo ID, also seen here: https://steamcharts.com/app/251040 (remember the numbers are not accurate due to steam profile privacy default settings being set to "private" but the recent number boost is an obvious indicator)
The test above shown was with this "trick" included, they still can't connect to legit accounts.

So basically the poor people can join the lobbies and run in circles. Hahahaha

They can, however, find and play with other non-legal copy players. It's basically like "For Glory Hell" in Smash 4.

In Smash 4, when many people report you because they are salty from getting bodied, you land in "For Glory Hell".
This will match you only with others who also landed in For Glory Hell which gave you horrendous waiting time and matched you up with many rage players who spammed insulting words in their tags when you bodied them.

Buying as soon as it is removed. Till then the pirate version is superior.

denuvo that unusefull ♥♥♥♥, all games with denuvo 5.0 has fallen, total war 2, injustice, db z, etc in less of 1 year.
Pirates can play full game with all the dlcs, while we have to pay for sound tracks, chars and goku clones.

Yeah ok you enjoy running in circles in the lobby. hahah

[Q]

Well theres something good from all this "multiplayer" thing from non-legit players, maybe the people running around the lobby unable to fight against legit players will get frustrated and sooner or later gonna buy the legit copy, that if they enjoyed the game and want the complete multiplayer features.

Reminds me of Guild wars 2, f2p accounts can play the main game and explore almost everything but with some restrictions, they cant access the "special store" or trade items in the global market or go to new maps, they must purchase either the 1st or 2nd expansion to get access to all the game features or else just enjoy the main, base game.

So right now db fighter z "pirates" are some sort of "f2p" guys, they can play the uhh story mode? run around lobby, maybe even chat and thats it right? no achievements, just pvp with other non-legit players?

This game gives players ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ or characters by finishing X difficulty or doing achievements, completing some challenge? If the answer is yes well i think its fair, if not then thats enough reason for not supporting shtty companies selling tons of dlc, doesnt matter if the price is cheap, it just encourage the microtransactions and they wont stop selling ya avatars, stamps, characters, skins, music, re-colors, cosmetics and all that sht if people purchase it without demanding better deals and free stuff adquired by accomplishing ingame challenges.
