Not the patch you are looking for...
Quantum Break has a jolly surprise in store for players it thinks may be pirating the game.
A member of popular online forum Reddit, discovered that you don't even have to be playing a cracked copy to get your hands on this pirate get-up - simply boot up your copy after logging out of the Windows Store and you'll trigger a costume swap. Upon loading your game, you'll see Jack Joyce is now wearing a rather fetching eye-patch complete with a Jolly Roger symbol.
As far as we're aware, no one has actually managed to actually pirate the game, which makes use of the improved Denuvo digital security, a new form of DRM that, so far, has resisted all attempts to crack it.
This, of course, isn't the first time Remedy have singled out sticky-fingered gamers for pirating their wares - their previous game, Alan Wake, also had the same feature.
It's a nice inclusion, but probably not the kind of patch PC gamers are clamoring for. Since it released a couple of days ago, angry PC gamers have been inundating Remedy and Microsoft with complaints over the state of Quantum Break's PC port. Reports suggest the game is buggy, riddled with performance issues and lacking in basic features; you can't even quit the game from the menu.
All in all, it sounds like a far cry from the PC port of Alan Wake, which was quite a substantial improvement over its Xbox 360 cousin.
