The Hacker Project - a free online game

I think what HJ is referring to is the 25 HPD bonus you get per click.  Right now the bonus is squat.  But at the beginning of the game the 25 HPD is HUGE...  500 HPD is a couple days worth of starter missions...

I'd like to suggest putting a limit of one Malware (either Overload or Logic) per box.  I don't mind Malware (I've got over a hundred) but having dozens of them on a box seems a bit much.  It is starting to feel like SlaveHack with the goal of destroying each others servers... and not much hacking...

In addition, I would like to see more 'doable' missions against other players.  Currently we have delete missions (which take so long as to never get done) and disinfect the baron mission.

I would like to see us have the ability to install spam/fileshare on our own systems again.  But instead of targeting a faction we can set it up to target another IP.  This would allow us to steal HPD from other players as well as factions.

Random target = me...

Too me that seems inappropriate.  Since it helps out you...

Ah... I think I understand it...  I had to re-read it several times...

This won't be too bad to your firewall and such, they will just get 'killed' and unloaded from memory.

Where this will have a big impact, is that it will 'self destruct' virii.

Imagine your HUGE baron install... Imagine that you just got nuked... Watch your several hundred hour install baron go bye-bye in 24 hours if you don't get your server back under 100% utilization...

This would be a good way to kill someones malware farms.

BUT... Is it going to make barons even more of a hindrance to keep up?  They can already be disinfected within 5 hours times their .1 version, but still take 54 hours per .1 to install. 

Hmmmmmm.....  I'll have to stew about this....

People used to collect just before the .1 mark because the program calculated rounded up, if I recall correctly.  So you could get extra money if you collected every .06 instead of every .1.  It rewarded the person who collected a lot.

Although it doesn't stop rev attacks against players, as far as I know... Correct?  So it really is only good against getting your barons and such disinfected while you are AFK.

Unlisted servers are for faction missions.  Search and Destroy.

Same player? Or is he using a different name?

Hakuza:

And they used to really like me for a while...  I spent a long time in Hakuza to begin with...

One thing I don't like is how you go from +2 million to zero just by switching.  I think you should slowly destroy your rep when you switch..

NiVom,

If you are interested in trying it out, buy $1 worth of in game money That'll give you 176,000 HPD).

Buy a hundred units of memory, processor and 10 GB worth of hard drive (15000 + 15000 + 30000 = 60,000 HPD)

Click on the Software tab on the left, choose software dealer and then purchase the .5 version of the following:

Log Undeleter          10,000
Password Break       10,000
Decryptor                10,000
Unhide Files             10,000
Process Tracer         10,000
IP Leach                  10,000

Total Cost of $120,000.

That will allow you to do any of the original basic (non-anti viral) missions without having to spend a week messing around.

Play for a few days.  See how it works out for you.  Most likely you'll like it and drop the twenty bucks to get the gold account.  The biggest benefit of the gold account is the external hard drive to save your files.  At the beginning levels the files are very easy to delete.

I would highly recommend doing the basic missions for a couple of days, before attempting to hack another player...

Oh yeah.  She's my sweet little angel. 

Except when she's not 

I've got 1 girl and 2 boys (and 1 girl on the way)...

I deal with kids all the time.  We regularly have six or more kids at our house on a daily basis.

I don't think they are derailing the topic.  I think they are implying that either you need to have more children (because you are rich) or you should get snipped (because you are a trailer trash, hill-billy porch shooting hick).  I haven't decided which way the conversation is going.



Oh, and congrats!  Although, I must warn you.  Girls are much more difficult than boys.

I think what Bontrose is trying to request is rankings and such for virii.

We need more (cowbells) rankings.

Thinking of you...  I know what it's like... especially if this is your first (I can't recall if you said it was or not).  I've been through 3 already and the first is the most nerve racking.
