@LinRARVtuber My hungry ass thought that was a can of ground beef.

@SanIgnacio02 Infinite whataboutisms vs active security threat.

Your computer must get more visitors than the village bike.

[Gagant @Gagant_]

It's crazy how malware in the launcher is treated like a minor issue. The launcher could infect your computer again at any point if they ever let a domain expire again.

@Kuolitee The delayed response.
The manual fix containing incorrect information.
Almost no communication for days.
Insulting compensation despite hours of labor users have to do to recover from the virus.
Still no info on if the launcher is safe for the future.

[Gagant @Gagant_]

@BuDoU_1029_daYO I wiped my computer after saving important files. The. Reinstalled from a USB. Now I don't play Nikke on PC since we don't know if what happened could happen again in the future.

[Gagant @Gagant_]

@Your04 I received a similar template reply in English. 😔

[Gagant @Gagant_]

@unifla Yeah I wiped my entire OS and ran multiple deep scans. They still haven't given any additional info past the initial post so for all we know the launcher could infect everyone again whenever.

@lordvictor If everyone eats lunch between 11am-1pm then you need a lot of microwaves.

[Gagant @Gagant_]

@YourPalRags Yeah, the VBs in 2077 have a suicidal in-group priority. If it wasn't for being able to kill them all, it would be the weakest part of the game.

[Gagant @Gagant_]

@PF_Hako I managed to send support a message asking for help and clarification, and they have yet to respond.

[Gagant @Gagant_]

After my PC finishes resetting I'm probably not reinstalling #nikke I'll just use my phone or quit. It's not worth the risk.

[Gagant @Gagant_]

It's crazy after the initial #Nikke hack response we still haven't heard anything else from ShiftUp, or Level Infinite.

They said the launcher was fixed but there has been no confirmation that the launcher is secured and this can't happen again.

[Gagant @Gagant_]

@mekisiko4 I had the same situation. I went ahead and did a full wipe saving only personal files.

[Gagant @Gagant_]

@arece1222 Good luck!

[Gagant @Gagant_]

I've given in. Time to reset my PC after the k2f_chan malware #NIKKE It'll be a good refresh I guess since Ive been using the same install for 7 years.

[Gagant @Gagant_]

@YungExcal Okay so you weren't affected by the hack. My computer was affected and I've been working on securing everything for the last couple days.

[Gagant @Gagant_]

@YungExcal Damn I guess Nikke is just screwed then. LI hasn't made a statement yet outside of the one on Nikke's account so I doubt they care.

Do you play Nikke on PC or mobile?

[Gagant @Gagant_]

@YungExcal Well it doesn't matter if it's LI or SU that steps in to help players. Though it's SU's game so I don't think LI really cares about the last damage to player trust. Though SU should probably close the launcher until a proper response can be made auditing the failure.
