If this PIC works how I think it will upon login, then in my opinion, it's probably the best admission we'll ever get from Nexon that there was SOME sort of information leak regarding MS accounts. Making users set up brand new login information (which cannot be retrieved using a player's old login information) would render anything a hacker obtained from before this patch... useless.
For that to be right though, the following would have to be correct:
- The hacking was caused by an information leak (hacking a database, etc)
- They have fixed whatever caused it (doesn't matter if we have 20 separate passwords/pins/pics to enter... If someone can continually grab all the necessary information from a database, this won't stop the hacking)
It'll be interesting to see the numbers of new hacking reports in the coming weeks.
