Curious. That means that the actual source code might be stored somewhere else as well and that a leak is possible.

As if the internet needed more MMORPG's and capeshit.
Autism attracts more autism. Sooner or later, an internet nobody will attract the exact kind of fans - and detractors - he deserves.

No pcgamer interviewed leandro. Hes the only one who has the source code including all original accounts that means credit cards etc. Hes been scamming people and doing gay ops to keep anyone from trying to recreate the game. CoH subreddit has been on full meltdown mode. Autists doxed leandro and trying to swat him. Its pretty crazy atmKugelfisch wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 2:35 pmCurious.

Still, I bet he's got a copy in some dropbox somewhere. He'd be foolish to not have a backup.AudioTechnicaMan wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 3:52 pmNo pcgamer interviewed leandro.

Probably but hes fucked either way. Its not like he can leak it anonymously anymore.Kugelfisch wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 5:54 pmStill, I bet he's got a copy in some dropbox somewhere.

You sure? He could've always given people emergency links in case shit goes down. If the source code finds it's way online I'd imagine it being next to impossible to actually prove it was he who spread it.AudioTechnicaMan wrote: ↑Thu Apr 18, 2019 12:15 amProbably but hes fucked either way.

I'm a little lost on how significant this private server actual is.
