Possible GW Hack program?

I was chilling out in Seitung Harbour and someone said they were selling a set of daggers, +33% enchant length. So i took a look, it was only 19, then they proceeded to say this :




I don't know if we should all be alarmed by this, or not. They refused to show me the sword, and simply stated "no selling item".

Your thoughts?

they might be able to edit what is displayed on their screen, but i highly doubt that the server would register it as being anything other than a normal enchant mod.

Your post says he showed you the item THEN you said he said "No, selling" hmm . .. . .

No he didnt hack. Only l337 haxter bot wammos running mending can do that.

No, if you re-read my post it states he showed me a set of daggers, not a supposedly hacked sword. The sword i asked him to show me, but he refused to.

ZOMG that hacker is talking in green letters !

if I tell you I have pot in my dresser will you call the cops to my house?

seriously why waste the forum space on this...

Nope actually I would be saying "Pass it to the left, 'cuz the right way is wrong"

....so you're talking about possible hack WORDS?

I mean, all he got are just that....words. How hard is it to make that up?

yea he/she/it is bullshitting...

Bingo, Slappy. It is entirely possible that this is what is going on, client-side fudging of numbers that absolutely make no difference to the item itself, which resides on the server and which the server assures will not be changed, hacked, or modified beyond what the designers intend.

Do any of you guys remember the "speed hack" rumour of a year ago? Sure, the player looked like he was speeding like all get out, to himself and, short term I think he may have even appeared to be faster to those observing. But the server knew where he was at all times, and he wasn't going any faster than before the use of the alleged "hack." He snapped back to reality sharply, with no change in outcome from the attempt.

Nvm. hacks are bad w/e.

Gaile you just digged out a million of google searches...

echo mending hax ftw :P

You CANNOT hack GW. Everything you do is on their severs. All your chat logs and anything else you can think of you do in game they know about. You cannot hack them without altering the server which would be a red flag.

They may not be able to get rid of all the bots in the game but at least we never have to worry about duping. IMO is way more destructive than bots. Every game I've ever played had some kind of hacks within months of release. GW has gone over a year with no hacks.

Gaile if you are reading this forward that to your marketing team. A popular game with no hacks has never happened. Would be a great selling point.

You probably can hack Guild Wars... especially if people are using farming bots, but who would do that?

I've got this amazing speed hack where I can type "Charge!" into the chat box and the chat bubble will appear even though it doesn't appear in the chat window and then me and all the allies arround me go 25% faster! OMGWTFBBQ H4X.

OMFG he didnt hack. Ahcking! maybe hes ahcking? Hes probably sick!

If you hack GW, GW will know about it really quick.

I believe bots are a sort of script run by the computer, not an alteration of game content.

That's right. Its a seperate program running that enters key strokes and mouse clicks using the x,y axis on your monitor.

Its not accually part of the game itself. Any alterations to the game would be found immediatly. Technically GW has the best set up. All server side game to prevent hacks and streaming to give fast easy updates.

Don't ever uninstall though. Have to download all those updates over again.
