this isn't about anything specific, this is just a general question.

i always assumed that multiplayer wouldn't work on pirated copies of games, or at most you'd have to play on specially configured servers. but the other day i saw a thread about a game where online multiplayer works even with pirated copies, and now i'm curious about how often that happens.

i understand that every game is different, and i want to know: what are your experiences with online multiplayer in pirated games?

Its not that it wont "work" but it is anything but secure your better of port forwarding and open it straight to the internet.

That's completely false.

Letting users in too your entire device and potently your LAN is worse then giving access to a single service.
