    I would like to know if VR plans to have two factor authentication for us? 

     

    I would think/hope so, but just wanted to make a statement that I think its a must have option for us gamers. One of the worst experiences in MMO history for me was having my account hacked. Since then I've not played a game seriously that I couldn't setup 2FA for as it just helps ensure my hard work isn't destroyed in the matter of minutes. 

    Well I couldn't find it with the horrible search on the forums at first, but went digging again and found a post about this already as I figured someone would have made.

    Post can be closed, but still I want to highlight what this person said as well. This should be standard, and IMO is a must have for any legitmate game now adays. I'll continue to voice this as we move toward release as it appears from the response it might not be seen as important to VR, but is very important to myself and I'm sure anyone else who has been hacked before... Also will save a lot of customer solutions calls / tickets asking for help to recover items, gear, gold that has been stolen. Thanks!

    Mod Edit: Consolidated double post.

    As I stated in that thread, we will discuss this later when it is closer to release, which is when we will have finalised our security procedures, security is important to us and we have a few specialists working on the team right now that are overseeing everything, we will release more on this later.
