Here is an example of why this small game (more on that after the recap) is so huge, with truly huge creative ways of taking advantage of the limits and freedom within it.



I logged in yesterday afternoon in the limited time I had to check up on my account. I am doing some stupid things - I'm running a completely naked Tier 3 rig with about 60 or so upgrades on it. This cost over 200M GC to accomplish on it's own. But, I've got an alt, it's loc has never really seen the light of day except for some farming.



Of which I've been doing a lot of T2 farming. I now had over 250MGC from some light farming when I could (you break the locks and it's 10-20M GC at a time. This money was basically all I had in the world of Hackmud, and I was only 25% of the way to my *real* goal.



As I check the balances, I quickly realize that neither of them have any balance. I was done. Someone got to both my accounts. They got to SilentSeraph, then they got to the npc that connects the alts together, and then they got to my alt.



I was now the proud owner of two very expensive and very burned locs. And I like them both so much. They are my first two I made.



But this is hackmud. I have locs, logs. I know people. Let's give it a shot. And I have literally nothing to lose now.



So I start to probe the loc that breached me. T2 locks. And, brutally, a "glock", a special type of lock, is in the front of likely 9 other locks.



A "glock", the in game lock, is a 100M - 500M GC Tier 2 lock that you can use as an upgrade. You can buy them on the market even. It forces the attacker to have an exact amount in their balance, which is given to the lock in a transaction, and it only unlocks each time you attack if that *exact* balance is present. So you MUST have coordination with friends, some really fast fingers, or even two computers, two copies of the game, etc.



After the "glock" lock is opened, there was now an acct_nt lock, which is hard as hell because you have to know the right net amount in your transactions log.



That's the easy part though. You have to try and do this while the person being attacked (victim) is actively sending you a spam of random GC amounts, filling your transaction logs up with a downpour of 2 - 23GC in random amounts (they can do this if they are online and watching themselves be hacked). This is one of the BEST defenses in the game and is impossible to crack for someone receiving so many transactions. But it's an ACTIVE defense. You have to be continually aware of who to defend against next.



So there my 250MGC is sitting. I have two burned locs, nothing to lose. I reach out to the community on discord. I work with a benefactor who has a few more locs he wants. And he wants to remain anonymous. He appreciates my situation, two burned locs... he suggests we work together.



I start paying people to be decoys for 2MGC up front, to just send an amount every few seconds. Noise basically, and pretty safe for them.



Then I took on three breachers. People willing to burn a loc. I had two burned locs to give, and the benefactor was paying me well for it. I split all of this with the breachers and promised that up front.



We spin up a game channel with password (ala the tutorial - I just couldn't resist) (and later joined a Discord chat), and began coordinating. I was to go in first, per normal operating procedures, like I had been doing for the past few hours.



Once I knew the glock amount, I shared it in the channel.



Everyone all at once began spamming him. Two out of the 5 of us were breachers. It was easy to tell, of course, but all we wanted was a few minutes head start.



And we began breaking each and every lock down, each of us gaining just enough time while the victim spammed us with transactions, forcing us to wait for a gap in his own defenses.



At a certain point, more breachers on my benefactors' side joined the fray. We bet that there was likely no way for the victim to withstand the attack for much longer, especially after our 7th broken lock.



And then suddenly, we were through. Breached. Everyone cheered. When we check the logs, though, the person who breached us? Wasn't any of our group.



And the balance we find: less then 1MGC.



Everyone is bummed. There's no huge pile of money we were hoping for. Might have been a breach from elsewhere.



But being a hired gun has it's benefits: we took risk, and our reward was guaranteed GC. The benefactor who wished to remain anonymous? He doubled our rates for jobs well done: totalling to 220MGC for each breacher on my crew.



I funneled the money to a much more secure spot, and am now enjoying a new life of services work, building a pool of willing talent, both helpers and breachers and coders and alliances...



There's talk of code being written to coordinate an entire team of us, and as a group of eager architects (what the game dubs you if you can script), we know we can build it to make the whole effort faster.



Do you see now? This game can be what you want, because you can LITERALLY CHANGE THE GAME WITH YOUR CODE. YOU CAN MAKE NEW WAYS TO ATTACK: SOCIALLY, USE TOOLS, PHISHING, GAMBLING GAMES, BANKS, GC TRANSFER SERVICES, BLACK MARKETS, BRUTE FORCING ... YOU CHANGE THE CODE!



THERE IS NO SPOON. TAKE THE RED PILL!
