    I think it could be interesting
    It would be really strange but awesome at the same time, I really enjoy games about hacking, and I think it could be nice some type of matrix game but with freedom to edit your skills and abilities "virtually hacking" the database. Also I think there must be some kind of restriction (something like levels). Cause if you're a real hacking master you own everybody with only touching the enter key
    Well, anyway it would be interesting to see

    I haven't played matrix online, but I was thinking about some kind of game similar to what the world of matrix teach us... for example two game modes, the normal one, where you see your pj walking, fighting, drinking cofee, etc... and the other one like a terminal mode, where you have a "virtual pc" and there you try to "hack" other players and the central server to gain more power or skills or whatever to use in the normal one...
    It would be great if also with your "virtual pc" it comes a "virtual server" where you have your personal space and you can edit everything, terrain, buildings, etc...
    And if you're a high level for example it would be nice if you can alter in the central server the buildings or the terrain, "only for a period of time of course"

    Hahha play open battle.net on diablo 2.... They don't let you but it's hacked to hell with item editors and character editors ect. I don't think blizzard really cares about open battlenet any ways.

You couldn't edit the real game or anything, just yourself and stuff, and it only worked for Avatar ON. Avatar off was solely pure skill. Wouldn't that be awesome? I mean, hell, most of you would probably be like, What is the point. But taking SAFE hacking to a whole new level in bringing it into gaming with everyone.. That would be so kick*** for me. I mean, Newbies would learn simple hacking but learning to play the game at the same time. Obviously, the GMs would have to make it so that you couldn't edit the real game itself, and etc.. It might be very hard or impossible, but I'm sure it could be done in the near near future.

    Edit: If they had like an area inside the game where you could edit stuff, so you wouldn't have to make any programs to make the hacks and stuff would be logical.

    What are your insights?
    Hacking=illegally modifiying the game


    Therefore if hacking was actually allowed then it would be "hacking" anymore..

    Not just that.. everything on the internet is hackable,therefore his theory of having a game where you "hack" is pointless,furthermore if everyone could hack the game freely people would eventually find holes in the security and obtain a way to get GM easily,and also to prevent this takes alot of coding more than in a normal game...thefore this whole idea is useless... I admit its a nice idea,but it will only happen in you dreams...

    well basically I think it can be possible, you mix a hacking game and a mmorpg and that's it
    I think that the idea is not hack the game... I think it's more the ambient of hacking, you hack ingame yes, but you don't hack the game, you make a virtual hack. You have a false pc where you search for ip's, try to crack accounts, infiltrate in other servers etc... but all virtually, not real.
    Like all the hack games that are in the world, for example www.slavehack.com

    There's a horde of singleplayer hacking games, there's one browser based one and there's a MMO one that's in development (P2P of course).

    Either that, or you could take a week to learn memory and packet editing.

    i Know a game, it's web based though. it's called SlaveHack, in this game, the goal is to hack other player's net computer and install viruses in it to earn money to do stuffs like upgrading ur cpu/internet etc, and whenever u gain access in one;s computer, u leavee trails behind for other players to hack ur computer. And recently they just ahd an update, now u have more softwares u can download from ( note: at beginning of the game u only have the worst basic softwares and comp but as u follow the quest plot, eventually u ll get the best softwares evar!)

    IT"S WEBBASED, BASICALLY it's text, that's all!

    Doesn't make any sense to me.
    Hacking to play a game, if allowed wouldn't it be the same as...
    GM allowing everyone to be God-Mode forever?

    I'm sorry but this is a pathetic question. If you could hack you wouldn't be asking. I hate the term 'hack' when it's really people getting scripts off the net THAT THEY CAN'T WRITE and use them, then say they hacked. Hacking is the art of illegally gaining access to a system without consent. I personally believe it's getting into a system by your own means, not by someone elses.

    Anything close to your description is Second Life, you get to make your own programs on it. Can you make your own programs? No? Then you're not a hacker. If can, then you'd know about it or wouldn't be asking.

    Sorry about the rant but i draw the line between script kiddies and 'hackers' (ie, hackers require skill, script kiddies require google.com).i

    Hacking games include Slave Hack (mentioned), Uplink and Street Hack.
