Supposed "Hacks" For Plunder Pirates

Lately I've been hearing a lot of people claiming to have "hacks" for Plunder Pirates and games of the same category. I would like to point out to those people that believe that they can cheat to gain an unfair advantage in this game, are going nowhere. Please do keep in mind, this is coming from a players point of view since i am not in any way affiliated with Midoki. I have come up with a list of three reasons on why attempting in hacking this game is wrong, and how it would be near impossible.

1)The Game is Server Based

Have you ever noticed that Plunder Pirates is an online game? Meaning, that you must have an internet connection to play the game. Stated in the games description, "*Note: A network connection is required to play. iPatch optional."

If no data network can be found while starting up the game, you will be given a screen in which gives you an error message that reads, "No internet connection found. Please ensure that your device is connected to the internet."

What Does it Mean if a Game is Server Based?
Basically, if an application requires a data network to play (LTE, 3G, 4G, WIFI, ect.), it means that the application communicates with an online server. Online servers allow users to communicate with one another, while also storing your profile in a web based cloud.

What is iPatch?
iPatch is an intuitive and easy to use patch-maker for Mac OS X. iPatch is an utility which can compare the resources of two applications and can produce a standalone patches to update an older version of an application to a newer version.
​

2)External Hacking Applications and Jailbreaking are Ineffective

There are a lot of external applications that claim that they can add coins, grog, and gems to your account. These are FAKE. Like stated above, this is a client to server application, meaning that whatever you do on your device (client) must happen on the games server as well. If the client and server go out of sync, you will be issued an error code.

External Hacking Applications
External applications that claim to add gems and other resources to your account are not real. The main purpose of these applications (if it even exists) is to get free money. How? Many times, you will need to complete a long series of surveys to "unlock" the download for the specific application or even purchase it. DO NOT fall for these scams.

Fake Purchase of Gems
iAP hacks are very popular on the cydia application store. They allow a user to "cheat" in a sense. It allows a user to attempt to purchase an item on an application without paying for it, and the user will still get what they wanted. This only works with applications that do not require an active network connection to play. Again, this method of cheating is ineffective and will not work.
​

3)There is No Point, Cheating is Not Fun

The sole purpose of playing this game is to have fun. Giving yourself an unfair advantage to a game not only defeats the purpose of having fun, but it also ruins the game for others. How does someone cheating ruin a game for other users? This game is an online multiplayer game, allowing users to attack one another. Someone that is supposedly able to have an infinite amount of troops while attacking makes it near impossible for them to defend their base.
​

I hope that i may have cleared up any confusion relating to hacks on this game, for they do not exist. If they are ever to exist, however, I'm sure that Midoki will quickly figure out how to patch it.

I always thought iPatch was a pirate joke

 

I did too. I decided to do a little research and found that iPatch actually exists. What a coincidence.

 

Nice banner too!

 

Thank you! Ive been trying to create pictures for my account just finished my profile picture about a minute ago (obviously i didn't make the pictures used though).

 

Cheating your way through a game takes away the fun and challenge......AND eventually you usually will get caught!!

 

Been through it all before with "another" game. any loopholes eventually get closed and any A-Holes get booted or banned...

 

PhysiX, I wish I could talk to you just about Java Programming. I'm taking a class right now and the syntax rules with Objects just seem confusing to me. I'm also taking XHTML and CSS and that seems way easier.

 

so it seems that you are taking a class on creating web based applications?

 

Thank you very much for sharing this stuff. I didn't this at the first but now it give me the whole clear picture. Somehow, everything can be possible.
Cheating is always there. Making the hack tools for others to earn profits is there as well. For them, this is business not just a simple game.

 

I disagree with your "knowledge" about this kind of games that requires an internet connection in order to run and the impossibility of hack, there are some previous known similar games where IAP free applications were working perfectly, to name only a few of them, the Zenonia series, the Simpsons, or more recently trial, and IMHO, I don't see the difference in term of fun between hacking a game to enjoy the content quicker and having the possibility to spend hundred bucks for having the same result. The problem isn't who hack and who doesn't, but this system of iap not to have sprites only but to create a disadvantage between who has the money for it and who doesn't. Where is the fun to be attacked by a player who could afford to pay for the gems, BP and EP to have some more builders available to be faster developed and make all buildings possible without ever going to attack another player even once to gain the required BP or to pay for the shields to play on his side in peace. Hacks are and will always be a part of the player versus player online gaming, and no anti hack policies will ever change this.

 

great job on thread bumping an old post. and what? what are you talking about.
Plus your "rude"

 

I bet most of those hacks were on android and since PP isnt on android yet it doesnt suffer from many types of hacks with iOS.

 

First, I don't have a clue of where you saw I was being rude, just realistic, it's facts, nothing else. Second, iap free, iap cracker, iap crazy, are iOS apps, get Informed please before coming in underground scene talks. And honestly, PP doesn't need to be released on android to attract hacks, the iap system does it by itself. Please do talk only if you have anything more interesting to say, instead of coming and trying to take down someone without knowing anything I'm usually not the kind who dig on old posts, but when I see all this nonsense with people in the end lacking of experience in this domain, I can't help to stop by and correct it. My purpose was never to troll, but to not leave false informations like this.


P.S there is an edit link on the bottom left part of your posts to avoid double posts

 

Disagree with who the thread poster or replies? elaborate thank you.

 

Very nice post. You are absolutely correct about all of that. The only thing I can add is, these client/server communications are most likely pretty well encrypted, which makes it even more unlikely someone's going to be able to sneak anything into the data stream.

p.s. I love the .sig! No idea why

 

Yeah I wonder why you like his siggy. Hmmmmm

 

There's just something about it that...speaks to me.
