"He sent us the disk, give him a little reward"
"...but....what if he made a backup"
"Invite him out to sign some documents so we can sue him if it does get out. Oh, also give him more stuff to make him feel real bad if he does leak it. While we're at it, make him also sign this which says he can't even talk about that meeting or we will still sue him"

Stupid question, but why does it matter? The game is like 20 years old wtf
You will never get an adequate reward for returning something like this so it's much better to upload it or sell it
Because any reason to fuck over Blizzard is a good reason.
Yeah but that's to be expected of Redditards
Selling it would definitly be the most profitable, but you would risk getting caught and getting sued into oblivion
gotta cover all of your bases
Shit belongs in a museum. It'd be like if Carmack never released DOOM's source code but someone found the floppy in the wild with the original code.
Why are reddit users so fucking stupid?
Have you always been able to see this guys reflection? Someone hit that with some FBI ENHANCE technology
Still has a large competitive scene in Korea
Remind you that Yea Forums is just an acountless reddit
sued for literally fucking WHAT dude? What the fuck are you talking about? its not stolen, its a fucking released game
>find ‘making of’ video for old movie
>WTF DONT SELL THAT YOULL GET SUED GOY GIVE IT TO US HAHA
>large
it's on life support
>smart people acting like retards
change it to “people” and youre correct. Yea Forums is not smart
Turns out that the disc actually was stolen. He has no rights to publish the source code either
Yep, retards acting like retards is absolutely Yea Forums
Brainlet, that's the fucking SOURCE CODE for the completed game. Selling that would definitely be a crime if you didn't buy the rights for it from blizzard.
Based illiteratefag.
>don't have distribution rights for something not publicly released
>distribute it
wHy ArE yOu SuEiNg Me?!
>the guy never dumped the disc files
I'll still be forever mad.
why even sell it, just dump that shit on the net anonymously, if you take even minor precautions blizzard will never know who did it. i fucking hate leddit
I would have dumped it on something like anonfiles through a vpn and posted that link everywhere I could possibly imagine. Fuck Blizzcuck
How come these big companies don't have backups and shit like this stored?
I think that's what he implied
None of you actually give a shit
Because the entire thing was a set-up to get some viral marketing in before releasing the remaster.
I do I'd punch the faggot if I ever meet him
It just gets forgotten
Happens too often
Because they usually didn't need the source code after release, its only now when they've realized that they can still squeeze money out of this stuff that they bother to dumpster dive for it. I would not be surprised if the source code for a lot of pre-day one patch games were just deleted because the company didn't think they needed them anymore.
He could have sold it to some korean for serious cash. At least six-figures.
Because if we had the source code it could be updated and become the Project X of Starcraft
This will never not make me fucking mad, thanks for reminding me faggot
Deletion was and probably still is the rule of the day for Japanese game development, they don't keep shit and just reuse media for the next game. It's why they're now feeling the pinch of having to re-release mangled garbage when they "discover" that there is no source code and the assets are all gone.
Are people actually retarded enough to think this?
legit doesn't matter anymore, CXBX has progressed so damn far since then
>"Smart" '''''''people"''''' ''''acting'''' like ''''retards''''
>why receive money when you could get neckbeard praise instead
>money
he got blizzard good boy points lmao
Because not only are you making a bunch of neckbeards happy, you're making a multimillion dollar company incredibly assmad at the same time.
As someone who has made a multimillion dollar company mad before, there quite frankly isn't anything funnier in the world.
It's illegal to sell it.
Look up intellectual property you knob.
So you don't want the original Halo alpha build?
Okay then...
idk user, some of you fags are super fuckin smart. Smart enough to find a flag in the middle of nowhere using a video only showing cloud cover, the sun, and a few airplanes
>Halo
Not really no.
>user found a superpermutation from shitposting about The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
>user found a syrian rebel camp and got it bombed by ruskies
>user calculated how many people it would take to get fucked in the ass in a straight line around the earth
>user calculated the value of the Holocaust just to create a unit of measure for how much a Hitler is worth
that and you open the door to making this source code truly immortal when any grognard can get his fat hands on it and fuck about with it as he pleases. blizzard is going to do fuck all with that disk they'll lock it in a closet somewhere and go back to making overwatch characters who will be better known for the porn they're in than any interesting changes to gameplay
It's a shadow, not a reflection, Professor Forensics.
And the museum would give it to Blizzard the instant they caught wind of it since they'd consider it their property and sue the fuck out of anyone not willing to hand it over.
Don't forget this one rt.com
Literally the first one on the list
It never was the emulation silver bullet reddit drummed it up to be.
>halo
hi redd1t
Assuming this computer had it which was astronomically low.
Autists acting like retards is probably the most correct
>that guy who calculated how much kinetic energy a glob of semen would possess if someone came with the force of a thousand suns
you think they sent it into space?
Absolutely fucking based.
Just handle the sale it in a country that doesn't give a fuck like China or Russia. Good luck suing then (((Blizzard)))
It could be even worse like the guy who found the source code for asteroids in a dumpster.
Business just doesn't give a fuck about their assets beyond how much money they make them.
He should have released it, but what would really have been nice is the source code for broodwar.
i can't blame this guy, he probably did the right thing
but this dumb motherfucker deserves all the shit he's been thrown
