*Cough* Malware Logic What?

[HJ®]

An SGP Team Member installed a Malware Logic Bomb in DAY ONE if his playing the game, and didn't activate it until today.

What the hell is this pitiful software? A reform is in order.

Malware Logic Bomb Basic Malware Logic Bomb 0.1 716.04 - 29.835 Days

 Malware BOMB function in progress...
All files on the host that were not installed have taken damage.
The files version has decreased by 0.71605!


What is this? Can we please get that changed maybe just a bit, or will it change to an acceptable level as the MLB version increases? After one month of playing, if he can acquire software over v30, this software is useless.

will it change to an acceptable level as the MLB version increases?

Compare the file's version to the damage it caused. In roughly 30 days the bomb cause 7x its version in damage. So if it scales linearly like everything else in this game, a v1 Logic Bomb will cause v7.1605 damage to all files after 30 days, or roughly v1 damage every 4 1/3 days. Considering how many files a main gateway should have on it, that's a good amount of AP and HPD in damages.

Yeah, but Moen, nobody's ever gonna let you activate a v1 logic bomb.

Perhaps the damage ought to be proportional to the version of the file that is being damaged, functioning in the same way as an overload bomb?
