Based on Titanfall and Titanfall 2, Respawn has a pretty fuckin terrible track record with security.

The clips are pretty crazy:

That is crazy, are there more clips or compilations? I’m just finding out about it through this post

Goddamn, it really did hit Forbes. Now I’m really interested in how Respawn will handle this one.

This is a contributor post, not a Forbes official article.
I read here recently that the rich people who pay attention to Forbes for investment information avoid all Forbes contributor content and focus only official article from Forbes staff.
I don’t know how true that is, but if you believe it then until a forbes staffer writes about it in an official capacity, it hasn’t actually hit Forbes.

I understand you, but they’re not the ones who matter here tbh; it’s other laymen. I don’t use Forbes, I just know what Forbes is. Looking at that page, I’d have no idea what you’re talking about. The url is Forbes, the author’s name is there, and is labelled as a senior contributor. For most of us: “we hit Forbes boys!”

I feel like the hackers got what they wanted out of it.
Dexx1s@lemmy.world 1 year ago
They definitely did. This will easily be the top Apex news for at least a week.

Wonder if this is a risk for all games that run EAC.
simple@lemm.ee 1 year ago
It’s certainly alarming and I hope they make a statement for it. The idea that any EAC game could have remote code exploit means anyone playing these games could be under risk of getting hacked.

EAC said no via twitter.com/alphaINTEL/…/1769734106395373635
We are confident that there is no RCE vulnerability within EAC being exploited.
