I know some people will think i'm crazy for having quit, but i'm just posting my veiw.
This is a great game, i am not denying that.
Firstly, i know i will just get many reply's saying "Just play in a legit game" but my mind cannot be changed on this.
Ep1+2 is being destroyed. As it is simply a port of the dreamcast version (almost, a few differences i think) all the people that were determined to hack it from the start were already halfway there.
They discovered how to dupe and multi equip and stack and etc. This allows people even without an AR to cheat in some form. And since these are glitches that sega messed up on, it is their own fault in a way (as this was also on the pc/dc version). As this was sega's fault in a way (it is still cheating, im not denying that) I learned to live with it and decided not to complain and just have fun with the game. But there are three things i never, and will not be part of. The first two of those three being hacked items and hacked mags. those two speak for themselves i think, they just make the characters too powerful at very low levels.
Then the AR codes started coming in. The classic that almost every AR owner who is determined to cheat/hack the game has used- Lvl 200 code (ablsolutely demolishes the point of the game imo). Now people have discovered the codes to be NPC's. I have seen many sonic/tails/knuckles NPC's and even Elly Person and the ninja (ninja i have no idea what part of the game he is from. Seat of the heart? i dont know, ive never played the quest). I'm not gonna go into any more codes, as i think being NPC's without getting banned proves what is possible.
I admit it was a mistake not to play 100% legit (With the exception of 1 character i have always raised my own mag. The mag i used with the other was a panzer tail given to me by a good friend). It ruined the game for me, as i had seen pretty much every interesting weapon there is to see, I have done most quests, and i have been through the entire of both episodes. I have never used hacked weapons though, and when i made my probably best find ever (a cure/paralysis from a red slime on V hard
), FSOD. It was gone, as i carried it with me incase i got to a room with many lilys or something of the kind. That, and the fact i have seen most things, just bored me of the game. Luckily, episode3 came very soon after that.
I hate to say it, but that game is slowly dying. Soon, it will be a shadow of PC and DC. I had great fun while it lasted... but i left to episode3 where i could be truly 100% legit, and the challenge of that is one of the reasons i like it so much. That's why i dont play it anymore. And to end this post i just want to say- DO NOT just say make a new character, completely legit and go play in legit games. It is too late for me, there is nothing that can change my mind. Occasionally i may go to 1+2 to play a quest or two with some friends, but that is very seldom.
