Potential User Data Breach

Thanks for letting us know, time to get a new 100 char randomized password xD

Good thing i changed my password yesterday.

Thanks for letting us know, not even worried though due to randomly generated strong unique passwords.

Thanks for the info.

So does this mean they also had steam password access if your game is connected to steam? PW wise.

They couldn't get your Steam password. We don't know those on our end.

steam-user masterrace.

anyway, atleast you guys are open about it instead of trying to cover it up like certain other organisations/companies.

Oh shit! I hope everything gets figured out ASAP. :(

So will 3.0 be delayed?

I hope not. The team have been able to mostly work through this uninterrupted. There are some parts of our build infrastructure that are still down, but that doesn't stop people creating content.

THanks Chris

You heard the guy mates

Lets send them Pizza!

Thank you for the quick, responsible, and transparent response to this problem.

Tell me you weren't using SHA1. Please.
Doubt any hacker will go through the effort of brute-forcing thousands of hashes, although he might leak them online.

Any half-decent hashing algorithm won't be easily cracked, especially since the db was salted. If you have a unique password that's NOT in a rainbow table, you should be fine, unless GGG stores passwords in plaintext, which they don't.

Breach ? The intruder could be Xoph, then.
