Yeah he is awesome. I remember that one thread right before the DA:I launch. The OP explained how you could use a loophole to play the game earlier and asked Bioware employers not to read the thread. Barrett then posted that one Simpson gif in response. Haha I actually think I remember that. Wasn't it something about tricking Origin into thinking you were in a different time zone or country where the game had already been released? Simple VPN/proxy spoof to have Origin detect a false location, typically South Korea because stacked release dates meant you could get a game as early as three days before official launch depending on your locations official release date. Not exactly harmless though, since the same trick can also be employed to access the online market for different regions and you could get the same game for lots cheaper if you say buy the game from the indian store (prices scaled to income average, even after bank fees for currency conversion you can save a good chunk of money if the price is cheap enough compared to your local pricing) and companies do NOT like seeing that (afaik one of the reasons why India in particular got the shaft in regards to global game keys for some games, so games bought from their store could only be played with the indian localization). |
