how many bugs must SH$ have before you can call it a game?

The only thing I don't understand btw is why the devs incorporated this protection scheme but decided to almost keep it a secret. I've only learned about it from reading this forum. I don't know if it's in the readme, since I've never read it. Imho they could have implemented a short warning prior to the intro stating that the game will run corrupted if a cracked .exe is used. You know, similar to what the devs of Operation Flashpoint did.
Otherwise you WILL get a good amount of unsatisfied customers running into those problems without realizing that it's a protection system, and when they don't read the readme (possibly) or any forums (and many don't) they might never learn about it. Makes for bad vibes.
