Can you point me to the part that addresses this specifically? I asked in that thread and got no answer. What is it about the new license agreement that requires one launcher to rule them all?

What is it about the new license agreement that requires one launcher to rule them all? Quote Does this impact my ability to play the game? Will my characters be deleted? There will be no rollbacks or resets of any kind, nor will there be any real changes to our day-to-day operations. You can continue playing as you do today, provided that you comply with our Terms of Service and Code of Conduct. However, we will be discontinuing support for Tequila and similar launchers in the coming months. Providing an in-house installation and patching solution is part of fulfilling our side of the license agreement (this was a key reason behind the development of the Homecoming Launcher). If you are looking for them to post the text of the agreement that goes over that, don't hold your breath. Ever hear of NDAs? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my super ultrawide, 5120x1440. The cutscene was a pair of belly and crotches talking to each other... 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked in that thread and got no answer. What is it about the new license agreement that requires one launcher to rule them all? I can't talk about the licence, only how it was explained by Number Six when he rolled it out. Tequila has zero security and it's very easy to create a manifest riddles with nasties. Viruses, malware etc and you'd never know. If you got the manifest from us (or the actual Rebirth/new dawn/Thunderspy etc site) you are most likely fine, but some people don't realise and google "city of heroes manifest" and get all kinds of hits, not all of which are legitimate manifest re-uploaders. To combat that we came up with the launcher which can't download anything except our designated up to date manifest. It's got a lot of tools behind the scenes to fix loading issues before they appear to the player, plus a few utilities that are very useful. So even if it is (or isn't) a condition of the licence (I don't know myself to be honest, just what's been said in the announcement) for player security the launcher is the best way to download and play the game. 6 3 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
