We’re so inspired by Bohemia Interactive’s new implementation of its FADE anti-piracy software, we’ve decided to adopt it ourselves. See, FADE is designed to cause illegally downloaded versions of Bohemia’s titles (starting with Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis back in 2001) to experience a rapid decline in performance. The latest game to feature the safeguard is Take On Helicopters, which gets all wiggly and wobbly as the game progresses, as seen in the screenshot above.
We’re still figuring out how to get that safety protocol on our website, but we’re pretty sure it’s going to have to involve getting the pirates to spread Vaseline on their monitor. We’ll have no way of enforcing that, of course: It’ll be on the honor system, which should go pretty well.
