Posted September 28, 2017 (edited) I haven't seen this referenced if it's already included, but due to the vast amount of electronic hardware available (or will be available) in the game, I had a system on my Altis Life server that created a career path for "Computer Hackers". These players could be paid sums of money to trace player locations, erase evidence from police systems, attain bank account information from bank systems, and basically interact with many themed electronic devices on my server. This greatly changed the dynamic in how players had to play, either for better or worse. For example, players that wanted to play by the law often got annoyed that they'd have to pay insurance premiums to protect their bank accounts from theft, due to hackers. The hackers on the other hand would have access to a single-use access of another player's bank account, so they could withdraw any amount of their money (or deposit money if they wanted to be charitable). A career profession in this game as a Hacker could open up more possibilities (I've seen that people are complaining that too many players would just become an assassin) and it offers alternatives. A Hacker might not necessarily be a bad player, they may be called upon by Law Enforcement to try spy on criminals for them, or obtain their whereabouts, or be used to obtain more evidence for a conviction.

Posted September 28, 2017 Yeah, I'd definitely have been a hacker myself if it was possible, but sadly it's not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 28, 2017 As rinyuaru-kun said, there will not be hackers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 28, 2017 It's a shame... hopefully the developers would consider it for a future addition to the game, as it could add a lot of dynamic options to what already exists. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 28, 2017 They don't want to do this for balancing issues not because of the work it would include 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) I could imagine that some troll takes a whole of people's money in the single server like, let's say, I am a troll, right? So I take all of the people's money and they cannot afford to buy something. It would be completely unfair to actually play on the server with troll hacker takes all of your money for no reason.
