Rogers' mother filed a letter with North Carolina's US District Court saying that Epic "has no capability of proving any form of modification" because her son merely installed cheats he downloaded from Addicted Cheats, versus altering the game's source code himself. literally just fucking admitted it though --- "Dogs smell like they've had too much fun and need a bath Cats smell like espionage" - Mead ...

I like how cheating is just altering the source code. You can do literally anything else as long as you don't mess with the code, that's clearly how that works :/ ... Copied to Clipboard!

I like that game. My tactic is to always find a small hut or shed and hide in it for as long as possible. Let all the good players sort each other out.

She says the case is based on a loss of profits, but argues that its a free-to-play video game, and that in order to prove a loss Epic would need to provide a statement certifying that Rogers cheating directly caused a mass profit loss
I know she's throwing out arguments against Epic and seeing what sticks, but I don't understand this one. If the game was $60 to play, they would have already gotten their money out of the kid. would see her point; they get $60 whether the kid cheated or not. However, this is free-to-play, which means they're only getting money on microtransactions. The players aren't going to want to keep coming back and buying in-game items when the game is full of cheaters. The health and stability of the game is the potential for profit. One person cheating does cause loss of profits from other potential buyers, but I suppose proving a specific amount would be difficult. ... Copied to Clipboard!

wtf?
This, along with the fact that the gaming juggernaut is suing a 14 year-old, strongly suggests that Epic had no idea who it was suing. That would actually make a lot of sense, although it's the kind of due diligence lawyers should be doing. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ... Copied to Clipboard!

So you could argue that this cheating kid is making players want to buy boxes so they can get better. --- "I don't believe you" ~ Link 1998 ... Copied to Clipboard!

They are not suing that scumbag for cheating. The only option is to sue because that piece of shit counterclaimed the DMCA.
