Dan - hilarious! No, really, I mean that.....yawn ;) hwkiller - Are you taking the p**s !!
I'm pretty good with the english language - and as far as i can gather from my own post i'm not laying blame at anyone's door. I think my post makes that pretty clear. As per the purpose of this list - amongst other purposes - i'm simply passing on vulnerabilities that occur. Please dont insult me by trying to think for me. Why would valve go to all this trouble - creating new models, new code, new this, new that - only to allow someone playing on their local machine within 2 hours to 'achieve' 22 our of 38 achievements WITHOUT coming into contact with a real player in the real world? In effect - it just puts their hard work to waste imho. All they have to do is write some code that stops achievements being recognised on bots and/or on a local machine. Then it FORCES cheaters/exploiters to achieve them in the way they were meant. Sure you can lock your server down, grab a few mates and stat pad it out - i dont think you could stop that. But really and truly, these updates takes a lot of thought, work and testing before we get it. Why would they allow it to be so easy? I say its an oversight. Blame is too strong a word in this scenario. WTF do u mean it not like its a challenge? Of course it is supposed to be a challenge!!! I cant believe you said that. But u did - and its there for the world to see. If i can get 22 out of 38 in 2 hours using bots and my machine - then its a waste of the programmers time and skill.
