The anti-tamper technology used in "Just Cause 3" has apparently made the game completely invulnerable to piracy. Just recently, China-based piracy team 3DM has renounced its bid to crack the open world action-adventure video game.
"The last stage is too difficult and Jun [cracking expert] nearly gave up, but last Wednesday I encouraged him to continue," 3DM founder Bird Sister said in a post translated by Torrent Freak. However, it looks like developer Avalanche Studios won the battle this time.
"I still believe that this game can be compromised. But according to current trends in the development of encryption technology, in two years time I'm afraid there will be no free games to play in the world," Sister explained.
"Just Cause 3" makes use of the Denuvo Anti-Tamper, which made the game virtually unassailable. According to the group behind the security winder, the technology is so effective that some publishers are thinking of console-only titles for the PC platform.
"FIFA 16" also uses Denuvo and it hasn't been cracked since it was released in September. "Just Cause 3" was released last month and so far, it seems that every pirating attempt on it ended in vain. It is looking like 3DM was right about game piracy meeting its doom soon.
In other related news, a gamer has found a way to play Jenga, a much more competitive, exhaustive and larger-than-life one at that, in "Just Cause 3." In the game, the shipping crates act as the blocks and Rico's grappling hook is used to pull them out.
To put the crates on top of the tower, gamers would need a helicopter. YouTube user teamcream shows how all that can be done in a new video, which ended with the colorful shipping crate tower falling over beautifully.
The "Just Cause 3" version of Jenga took teamcream a lot of time to perfect. Either way, it looks and works flawlessly.
