Hello,
City Of Heroes/City Of Villains full source code was released on COH discord server by the owner (Leandro) of the secret private server called (SCORE). This is the full source code of City of Heros, the game was developed in the past by Cryptic Studios, then NCSOFT took over the code. This code is issue 24, the version of the game before shutting down.
What is COH:
City of Heroes (CoH) was a massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed by Cryptic Studios and published by NCSOFT. The game was launched in North America on April 27, 2004, and in Europe by NCsoft Europe on February 4, 2005, with English, German and French servers. Twenty-three free major updates for City of Heroes were released before its shutdown. The final live update, "Where Shadows Lie", was released on May 31, 2012. On August 31, 2012, NCsoft terminated its Paragon Studios development team, ending all production on City of Heroes[1] with the last day of services on November 30, 2012.[2]
What happened ?
The complete source code along with user informations was copied and leaked by a dev to a guy in Argentinia.
And this guy ran a secret City of Heroes private server that was fully functional. They even got all the stuff that was in development and finished it, they have new powersets and content.
But it gets a bit spicier. The guy who ran the server was a head mod of the City of Heroes reddit and suppressed any discussion of private servers while at the same time stating that private servers would be impossible.
And apparently he was also involved in a project that was attempting to create a private server and took many donations of fans for that. All the while having a fully functional private server he and his clique played on for the last 6 years. They even released a version of the game called "Paragon Chat" where you could basically only walk around and chat with people as their latest development.
The paragon chat and the functioning private server files were downloaded with the same launcher.
Apparently even all Characters from the live servers are still there and you can continue to play them. There may even be personal information in the leaked database, but it was not released.
Source Code Info:
Version: 24 Latest before game shutting down
Compiler: VS2005 or VS2010 with some C++ knowledge
