why do most pc cracktros suck?

category: general [glöplog]
A new prod = EP answer to dipswitch :

1/ for narrow band internet access : for 56Kb modems and less
2/ for DSL / Cable / Broadband access

Please note they are different versions regarding GFX : low-speed is lower quality, but faster to download for 56 Kb modems.
Sites are invisible and will not be indexed by search engines.

Mind the pet shop boys song lyrics while reading :)

Note that these sites will be available for reading till 15 days after hugi 30 was released.

So be fast.

Why pc cracktros suck ?

Well, nowadays people download cracks from massive cracks directories and don't bother about cracktros style anymore : people who play war games like half-life II simply aren't interested by style but by killing as much as possible !
So as cracktros don't interest audience, crackers simply crack and make a tiny intro, with already written code.
Please also notice that nowadays the number of programs, games, tools released by the computer industry is so huge that crackers can't get the time to code intros and simply make cracks industrially too :)
I mean when you have to crack tons of programs, you focus on cracks and not on cracktros.
Crackers are lamers ?
I don't think : crackers are people interresting by reenginering not by coding. They love investigate codes by other people, finding the key to get rid of the protection, and code is just a tool to understand, not a tool to master. They love cracking not coding, this is really different : this imply understanding code already written, not to write code yourself or just a few.

PC cracktros suck because of the number of games available to crack.

Dip, what do U mean ? :)
Does some crackers are also demo coders or does some crackers are crack (drug) addicts ?

It's obvious that demo makers who rip or try to are also people who can crack.

Crackers spirit is debugger spirit, coders spirit is compiler spirit :
but a coder have to debug his routines so he have both spirits.

Their is a particular spirit to trace a routine using a debugger and finding where is the bug and wipe it.
Crackers don't wipe bugs but find where the protection prevent the game / tools from running and yes that's fun to crack.
Like it's fun to rip...
But well this is forbidden.

Here we saw also something interresting :
to code implies having 2 opposed spirits.
Reading, writing ASM / C++ / whatever language is mandatory to get a result : you share knowledge with others.

Both opposed spirits combined to get a good result :
like in life, two opposite a girl and a man combine
to make a new one...

Pc cracktros sucks for one more simple reason :
When the PC started to be known I mean when the 286 / 386 was available, this computer standard was so widely spread (USA was a good way to start a business : you sell the biggest shit to millions ppl without doing nothing) that protection were not added to games.
This way games can be quickly copied
and the cracker function was not needed.
So crackers only have appeared after
and were coming from others platforms or started on the PC.
They were moving from one world to another
and had no time and knowledge to build cracktros :
PC is for customers
and "no crack needed" means no knowledge to gain from cracking.
So cracktros were not produced in masse on this platform.
PC crackers focus on cracks not on packaging.
Moreover the number of software to crack nowadays is so huge, that crackers don't have time to release cracktros.
This form of technological art did not born on the PC.

IT'S BECAUSE THERE ARE NO CRACKTROTOOLS OF COURSE!!!11

fortunately there are demotools and introtools, yes!

ep: before stating authoritative and narrow-minded arguments, you should try looking closer : of course there are almost no oldschool cracktros any longer, but the PC cracking scene is still leet, focusing on excellence and optimization, that means keygens and patchs instead of serials and cracked exes. AND some keygens and patchs can easily be considered as the new cracktros, featuring chiptunes, nice gfx and eye-catching effects.

Yes cracktros on PC exist but they aren't as good as those I see on Amiga / ST / consoles.
I've given argument for my thoughs.
Plz respect me if you want me to respect you.
Answer the topic : PC cracktros suck, why ?
See higher for my analysis and answers to this question.

i bear no respect for people without logical rational.
time and patience is precious. i shall not waste mine explaining things to people who choose to rant their idiocy instead of attempting to understand things.

ep, nobody respects your arguments and opinions on the scene because they have about as much basis as mine on brain surgery.


you and adok should get along perfectly. =)

Maybe 'cos noone really bothers to make cracktros anymore. I mean, who needs cracktro for a CD-ISO? Craxx0rz are just not creative enough anymore.
