Secure pin code :)

Hi gamez

i dont know if you can do it or not, but what you thing about make a secure pin on characters like on Official aion?

I thing that its very good thing, because numbers are different with every pinning and maybe if it will be when some1 will delete items which need "Confirm Delete" to success = more safe and "hackers" (crackers) have a big problems with it

i know that its more clicks than normal when you need delete character or something (what need "confirm delete"), but account and items protection versus hackers must on first PLACE! :rightful::rightful::rightful:

:wink:

 

think it was a 3.5 feature.. correct me if I'm wrong

 

You're wrong.

 

oh you are already back to gamez? ;p


yes it's the best security

 

wrong then XD

 

nuttela: not back,, iam still here, becauce i like this server but not trust them like before

but maybe better security return my trust to them

And i thing that pinning is very good idea

 

ye it will be a security ingame.. since keylogers will be useless with that

but it needs work.. not only ingame but also in gamezaion site

like in retail you have to put your pin code in the site.. and you type it

if the keylogger finds the pin from there then there is no point

 

No on websites... did you ever play on official aion?

when you log ingame on your account - you see characters - you cllick on 1 char - start game - and before it start you must enter pin its all.....and the reason is that you not use keybord and numbers are on diferent place every pinning .)

 

yes i played..

both US and EU but i don't remember which one has the pin code on site

it will be a pain in the butt if people forget the pin code thats why it is needed in site too

 

We enabled this waaay back in what... 2010?

People got confused and the feature was eventually disabled. Though if memory serves NCSoft has since replaced the 4-digit pin system with like 6-8 (yikes!)

Not sure if the feature still even works but I don't see much reason to enable it regardless. Not like many people get keylogged on private servers anyway. The people who do get "hacked" are, most of the time, people who have given out their login credentials to friends anyway. They'd have to give those "friends" their PIN in the first place so I can't see it changing much.

 

Alente you can trust that on in all times you must share your account with any1 to get hacked...

but the pin code is very good for secure

players forgot pin?? are they stupid or what - with real life you too must remember pin...exampla: credit card .)

 

I don't agree with this idea, i get bothered everyday when i need click in 8 numbers to log on my character in retail

 

yea it is bothersome, considering according to the server files u get 5 password attempts and then 15 mins ban its pretty hard to get into an account without actually sharing it

the thing is it does help against keyloggers that net cafes experience (and net cafes r a huge party of aion population since the players r mostly pinoy/indonesian/brazilian)

 

I have been try playing AION 3.5. i see secure code there (6digit - 8digit) you can using it. so i think that will be make hard secure-key. :lol::lol::lol:

 

was about to say that it is a VEERY annoying thing to do every time you log in..
have been playing OFICIAL aion.. and its kinda annoying .. every time i log in..

BUT..
after being hacked 2 times .. i think its pretty much necesary and good

might be annoying, but it would be awesome to have it ,

TIP to the masters, if you feel lazy to do that.. just ask for 1.5k creds to purchase "more security account" or any crap to get something from it

nice idea Hellercz

@Alente the pin is still there, just go to game\config\default.config and change "gameserver.passkey.enable = false" to true

 

I'm aware it's there, whether the updated 6-8 digit version has been implemented is another matter.

One I don't particularly care to test as the need for this feature is so ridiculously narrow it doesn't justify implementing it and the subsequent headaches that would cause for some users.

 

I have my sword to "secure" my codes.
