Breaking News: Ready or Not’s Source Code Stolen, Game Experiences Technical Snags
Massive Hack Threatens Game Stability
In a recent development, it has emerged that the source code of the popular Steam shooter Ready or Not has been stolen in a massive hack. The attack, which allegedly occurred in March, saw hackers take away over 4TB of data from the game’s developer, Void Interactive.
Among the stolen data are console builds for the game, raising concerns about the security of its future releases on PlayStation and Xbox platforms. Although the stolen data reportedly does not include sensitive player or employee information, it has sparked worries about the impact on the game’s development and stability.
Player Frustrations Mount as Bugs Plague Gameplay
While the data breach has raised concerns, Ready or Not has been facing criticism from its player base for some time now. Despite its initial success, players have lamented the prevalence of bugs, lack of new content, and unfair AI behavior.
The game’s 1.0 release in late 2023 drew particular ire from the community, with many criticizing the gameplay changes and unresolved issues. One player on the Ready or Not subreddit remarked, “This sucks and you suck if you are celebrating.” Void Interactive has not yet publicly addressed the data breach or the ongoing player frustrations.
Game’s Future in Jeopardy?
The stolen source code could potentially lead to piracy, unofficial modifications, and other security risks for Ready or Not. Moreover, the lack of communication from Void Interactive regarding the breach and the ongoing technical issues has raised questions about the studio’s ability to support the game in the long run.
The future of Ready or Not remains uncertain as the developer grapples with the challenges posed by the data breach and player dissatisfaction. The outcome of these events will undoubtedly shape the game’s reputation and community perception.
