GTA4 protection

I remember I heard that there was some sort of anti piracy in UT3 and Gears of War which would enable you to play cracked game but you couldn't save your progress unless you log on with GFWL account? Will that be the case with GTA4?

It's nice way of attracting people to buy the game, they download it, get addicted and then realize that they have to play all over again each time, so the only option they're left with is to buy the legit copy... sigh.gif

Yep you have to go trough a whole lot of bullsh to just install it, think about internet confirmation and always staying linked to internet to even play or save

 

crappy deal if you ask me

Yea they do wich sucks...but you can also get a nocd patch from tons of websites wich let you play without it

Just be sure to install the whole game then including the radio stations

I don't think IV will have the option to leave some data to be read from the DVD drive.

But will the patch affect the game become unoriginal? Coz I know that GFWL games require the original for playing online.

lol, Someone makes a topic with some claim of something he says he remembers he read somewhere and people take it as truth?

 

btw Gears of war saved and played fine offline with a no-cd.

I mean like earlier versions where you could install everything even the radio stations so you would only need a no cd patch to play the game without dvd/cd rom

Copy the original exe file to another catalog and change them to No-CD. When you'll play online, put the original files back.
