Hacks blocked?

[rubberbandchap]

Ive been away from this game for about a year and when i left the game was hacked to death with bots, maphacks, dupes, drop hacks , you name it they hacked it but now people tell me all hacks have been killed somehow. i was just wondering if this is true and if so hwo was it done and why cant the hacks just get better.

Any information on this subject is very welcome

Thx for reading

MOST of the hacks have resurfaced upon the world of Diablo, but are very risky.

Some hacks are/include:
-Maphack
-Bot(s?)
-Someone mentioned Pickit/Snagit, but I haven't come across anyone using it yet.
-Some sort of Lag/Crash hack, that people use in Act 2 for Drop Trade games.

A new one im hearing about is some glitch or new hacking program or SOMETHING thats modding .08 items onto 1.11b Ladder unsure of NL, but then again what isnt duped/hacked on there, heh, no offence NL Players.

Although these hacks exist this season, these ones this season seem to be more prone to getting caught and getting you banned/closed.

Someone will probably post a more indepth post about this topic.

Some time ago, many people with MH had their accounts closed and CD-Keys banned.

Bots are still here. I spoke to someone who had one, and was selling his bot for a hr each. he said it was undetectable, coz it ran from windows or something.

Cause warden doesn't detect 3PP's on Windows.... Most likely because Windows is a far superior OS than all the others. :rolleyes:

It's wrong, hacks are still out there, dupes are still out there, bots are still out there.

I've been reading ermmm... some site with basic explanation of how duping works, and, well, the algorythms are so complicated and refined that Blizz will either have to implement heavy security on the servers (resulting in immense lags) or rewrite the client, which basically means rewriting the engine of the game, something they will never do. So I'm quite sure there wont be a solution to hacks at all. At least not in Diablo II.

so are the old hacks still usable and just more prone to getting caught?
Surly someone must know what the patch or whatever actually did?

Hmm... there goes the noob that told me "You can't dupe in 1.11" x_x

Well, it's basically the virus detector issue...... We cannot write a perfect virus detector. Actually, we can't even write a finite program that will determine whether another program will halt on a given input...... Therefore, Blizz can never write a perfect program that can detect whether a program will dupe/hack/whatever. There are just some things that are not computable.

*The heuristic can get pretty effective, though, so don't risk it.*

i think that hacks that worked in earlier versions no longer work, but the makers of those hacks have re-made them to work so they just updated the version to go around blizzards security system a new way. If Blizzard really wanted to get rid of hackers, why don't they hire one to test their security systems for problems. This goes for all games with hacker problems.
