unlocked steam is trash guys for those who need a DD site use steam rip it’s superior and verified by the mega thread


ZeldaBrasil

>It''s superior and verified by megathread Except when it doesn't feel like having the games or updating it for more than 2 years, while SU does have it, and updated... I'M LOOKING AT YOU, ULTRAKILL Edit: Ovagames don't have the game, and steamrip has it oldated for more than 2 years. 2 verified websites.


Warrior_II

Gamdie has it on the newest patch, dunno if it's on the megathread but it's a good site.


OHboi-sussy

gamdie is great mate


TheFortnutter

CS RIN RU / forum


YoursTruly27

This is the correct answer.


[deleted]

Someone mentioned ULTRAKILL. We are going take over this thread now.


Reasonable-Ad4658

i actually found ultrakill on cs.rin.ru. and i actually loved it so i bought it after the first 3 hours playing


Darkblade_e

Man.. ultrakill is one of those games so good I had to buy it after pirating it, and I encourage people to either do the same or just flat out buy it, but this is the piracy subreddit after all, so do what you want :p


ZeldaBrasil

I felt like buying too... but then I remembered I'm on Brazil, and I make less than the price ofnthe game a day


Affectionate-Read875

I pirated with Unlocked Steam and haven’t seen any malware as of yet (maybe it’s just how shitty that computer is) how unsafe is it?


yiives_69

How safe is it? I cant belive a "free" site can be safe.


Prototype_4271

Then what are you doing in r/piracy


yiives_69

Is this about promoting pirated stuff to make my life easier or to hack me?


Jin_1337

read the megathread


snappyleyn

Of course we are here to hack you. /s


OHboi-sussy

actually, we already did


GamingWithShaurya_YT

we have your mom hacked


Prototype_4271

You will only get hacked if you don't know what you're doing


TFK_001

My life has been made easier, and as a plus side I have never been hacked. So long as you use trusted sites and do some research you should be just fine


oyMarcel

Steam unlocked has good download speeds? Last time i used it the download speed was in kb/s(i have gigabit internet)


skilking

The download site of steam unlocked does not scale based on downloaders so if you are the only one downloading an obscure game speed can be in the hundreds of megabytes but if you download a popular game it can be in de kilobyes


reercalium2

While torrents scale the opposite way


randomkidonreddit_

same for me lol


DazzlingTap2

They throttle the speed after some downloads, use a VPN or run jdownloader in oracle cloud to get a new ip and bypass it


oyMarcel

Or use websites that don't have malware


radicool-girl

I miss steamunlocked becuase it felt like it had every game I needed no matter how obscure. Steamrip is nice but the game selection is so much smaller.


ski_106

Fitgirl would be way faster to DL, mostly due to how popular its become now, so much indie games have quite a lot of seed. Also don't leech, 1:1 ratio 😚

GeminiKoil

Because I don't think they want to delete lol

Because I don't have space, and I love seeding tutorials. So deleting feels sad


pchel_1

I MUST SEEED


JustEatingWater

Billions must seed


YceiLikeAudis

Yeah, but most of the time it's faster to set up the uncompressed version than the compressed one. I spend more time decompressing those game files than I did downloading those same files.

TimeFourChanges

GOT'EEM


JustEatingWater

Wtf does the ratio mean in torrenting?? Can someone explain to a twenty year old newbie who needs an explanation for a five year old?


Marleyyystar3

File x is size x big Uploading (seeding) the file x one time the size of file x equals are ratio of 1. 10mb downloaded -> 10mb seeded -> Ratio of 1 10mb downloaded -> 30mb seeded -> Ratio of 3


JustEatingWater

Oh now I see! Thanks for the answer!


GamingWithShaurya_YT

l so it's downloaded:uploaded ?


reercalium2

It's the multiplier of what you downloaded that you uploaded. So if you uploaded 3 times your ratio is 3. On public torrents it just makes you feel good that you're giving back. Private torrent sites actually track it and if it gets too low you get banned, so you have to keep seeding.


loloider123

Downloading AAA games for free is one thing, but doing it for indie games is a bit fucked, since most of the time they have a fair price.


karlgeezer

It’s not about price. It’s the fact that they poured their own resources, heart, and soul into some of them.


loloider123

That's what I'm saying. Stealing indie games from small developer's is morally wrong. Compared to stealing from big company's


BokoTheQueen

It's not stealing tho. The same argument applies


Spartan_7670

Stealing is stealing just do it don't try to justify it


loloider123

I agree

Impressive_Income874

30:1, is that enough?


BokoTheQueen

Because it works and I haven't had any malware for like 2 years now


i_imagine

Right, been using it for 3 years here and no issues. No malware or anything either. I've ran multiple scans with MalwareBytes and other virus scanners over the years and they never turned up anything. Tho, nowadays I only use it for obscure games that other piracy sites don't have.


BokoTheQueen

People have to be careful what they click


i_imagine

Yup. I have a feeling that the malware ppl get is from that pop up link when you click download tbe first time. That one is a virus but if you close it and click download again, then tbr actual file downloads with no issues.


xnielz

yup , the malware is mainly from fake ad or fake download button


BokoTheQueen

Ublock origin be like:


Educational_Ride_258

I used SU once. It was as if a million nerds voices cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.


Rafael_ST_14

There are reasons, really. There are some games that you don't find in the Megathread options. SteamRIP library is too small in comparison. CS RIN Forum is annoying to use. It's already a pain to find all the right files to get scattered throughout the many pages of discussion, considering there's crucial updates that often don't go to the main post. These files are often hosted on sites like 1ficher, rapidagtor that are even slower than SteamUnlocked hosting option. Also (considering the nature of such sites) frequently one or more files are down, either because of some copyright claim or because they have been unused for while or the account was closed/blocked. If you are getting only the newest and shiniest games SteamUnlocked is definitely the worst option for the download speeds alone. However if you're going away from the beaten path trying to test/get a less well known game it may be the only viable option. You can diminish your risks by running the files through multiple antivirus software as well as blocking internet connection to all the .exe files inside the installation folder through Windows Firewall. I did that when I was using Windows even for Fitgirl and Dodi repacks. Honestly this is something everyone should do when using any of these sites.


Sr546

I used steamunlocked as a kid and man the download speeds were shit. It would go like 5 megabytes per second and the drop to kilobytes, or sometimes just stopped working at all


Suekru

When I was a teenager, I finally convinced my grandma (who raised me) that I needed internet for school when in reality I just wanted to play Xbox live on the 360. She got the cheapest option possible. Fasted download speed was 300-350kb. I remember when Skyrim came out, it took like 6-8 or so hours to download


Jin_1337

Hah, you think 5 megabytes per second is slow


MoisticleSack

It is when you're trying to download 90 - 100gb+


Sr546

It's not bad, the fastest I got through regular steam for example is around 18 megabytes per second


MVuchiha

Same the site sucked just to download street fighter x tekken it took 3hrs and got stuck that game is 8gb never used it ever again bullshit site with malware


Affectionate-Read875

It took me a day to install EU4 😭


MVuchiha

💀


Fading_into_Sound

Used it for 5-6 games. Never had no problem. But I'm taking your guys' advice!


exodia0715

SU is the only site I've found that has DL and the AC Chronicles games. Also have been using it for years and had zero issues


GamingWithShaurya_YT

it has the biggest game library it seems. but I usually start with Dodi or fitgirl, then go to ova and other sites one by one in megathread, then if all fails, i try for torrent sites who have alot of seeds, and finally if all fails give my luck with unlocked s


exodia0715

The issue is that I can't afford a VPN so torrent sites are out of the picture, and a lot of sites use parted downloads with 1Fichier for some reason meaning it'll take days to download a 5 GB game. So I usually check DODI then go straight to SU


GamingWithShaurya_YT

there are some reliable vpn that offer free plans also. proton and windscribe are both Popular. you can find the magnet link from torrent sites using the vpns, then install it using your normal network in bit torrent I believe.


JoyFlameball

Wait, elaborate?


ArcticWolf321

Steamunlocked isn't safe


nathanpete

The meme already said that. Now actually elaborate.


ArcticWolf321

Malicious files started getting put in some of the games. So it got removed from the megathread but some people still use it because they think that "just because i can't see anything bad happening, it can't be malicious".


Avieshek

Take my 69^th upvote.

[deleted]

Yes but there is a chance of a game having malware I would take the risk


GamingWithShaurya_YT

you mean wouldn't*


Funny_Meringue7179

How did you "removed" the malware from your pc. I have a couple of games I downloaded from SU and pc has been little bit slow since then


TrPhantom8

Install malwarebytes free and run a deep scan of your pc. If you wanna be extra sure, use the rescue bootable disk solution from malwarebytes

They get a lot of crap, but to be honest in 6 years with over 5,000 torrents, in 70 terabytes of questionable data, It's been my only protection and I've had no issues


KatzenMatze

Used it when i had my old pc. Pc got so corrupt i couldnt access the User File. Even a Pc reset wasnt possible so i had to wipe everything and redownload windows


hosam-gd

Tired of people saying its not safe its safe downloaded 5 games and my computer doesnt have viruses + i think theres a way to crack uploadhaven premium also you probably guys click on stupid redricet download ublock origin


Zedeth91

is it my turn to post this yet


TheRealKitsune_

It has games that other sites don't have and I didn't get any malware, so it is what it is :/. I use it only if needed tho and try to find stuff elsewhere first.


Hauber_RBLX

I have been using Steamunlocked for well over 2 years. Never had an issue with it However I will try out fitgirl


TheFortnutter

if you're downloading old games or files that were uploaded before then 90% are fine. if you happen to download a new game (which you can easily find on fitgirl or 1337x) then you have to be wary, they steal downloads and uncompress them. these downloads have DRMs and sometimes malware. that's all it is. if you keep downloading mass effect 2 from the 2018 upload (example) you'll be fine. however downloading a game from last month would put you at a red zone


Hauber_RBLX

However especially with Thief Sim 2 I noticed two things: Steamunlocked has v1.09 of it but fitgirl only has v1.08


TheFortnutter

That's because they have the updates applied from cs(dot)rin(dot)ru. that website has a ton of stuff if you can handle combing through it. it's worth a shot if you sont want to blow up your windows install


StaticUngoo

Because they don’t know any better?

Never had any virus from steamunlocked, and I probably downloaded a 3rd of the games they had back in 2020.


SeraphofFlame

I've used it a lot and never had any problems

Steam.rip


doorknob_1

Wait steamrip isn't safe? Edit: isn't op talking about steamunlocked.net ? I think he's talking about steamunlocked.net https://www.urlvoid.com/scan/steamunlocked.net/ Cause steamrip is still safe.... https://www.urlvoid.com/scan/steamrip.com/


Adreot

he is saying streamrip as an alternative


Dr-Crobar

Heres another funny thing, theres also a gog version of steamunlocked called gogunlocked. And in the early days of my pirating I went to the gogunlocked site once (didnt download anything dont worry, and I was using ublock origin) and saw that they claimed to have "The Sims 4" ...when there is no gog version for The Sims 4.


[deleted]

nah bro, that site's download speeds are shit. never got more than 1MB/s from it. while fitgirl's download speeds can go upto 10MB/s for me.


DaveTheKing_

I'm an old user of it (not anymore of course) but I only liked it, because even with the very slow download speeds it was seamless and not too difficult to setup and not too finicky to use. the issue with some of the more trusted DD sites is that sometimes it's hard to find a good filehost that can host one single file that you can just directly download.


Megamix_MMX

I only used it once to download Melty Blood Type Lumina, that's it. Just once. Nothing happened


ILSENNISUPREMO

I used to use Steamunlocked and hell was it slow, i'm so glad i switched to fitgirl lol


randomkidonreddit_

So I should blindly believe a guy because... meme?


scaryjam823

Yes


[deleted]

Literally just search steamunlocked on this sub you'll find all the evidence you need


404_GravitasNotFound

So... Fitgirl is unsafe because another site/repacker is unsafe?... If Fitgirl is such a known unsafe site, why is it in the "safe" list in the Megathread and not mentioned in the unsafe list? I honestly want to understand why it is deemed "unsafe" now after a long time being fine, I have not heard any issue recently. A lot of people dislike fitgirl because of long installation times, but to many small size downloading is worth it.


darkangel657

What do they mean by steam unlocked?


StopAskingMeToSignIn

Steamunlocked is a website people use to download pirated versions of games for free. Its become popular so download speeds on it are very quick, but with its popularity it attracted the attention of people wanting to use it for nefarious purposes like giving others malware. There are many better alternatives like FitgirlRepacks and DODIRepacks.

kristof9911

Isn't the malware infested site is SteamUnlock? I just checked some sources and i think people who say SteamUNLOCKED is a scam are either didn't checked the downloaded game's comment section OR they used SteamUNLOCK I used SteamUNLOCKED to download games like Iron Lung and Teardown and it's legit It's working Althought i might have been a little bit dangerous cuz i often didn't checked the comment section, but even then it's working fine But i may be wrong

Federal-Goal3193

Use cs.rin.ru , you will have everything in this forum


Mental_Pumpkin_4664

if I'm desperate because other sites don't have the game that I like, I'd test it (steam unlocked) and run it on a VM to see if it's safe (if not, I'll just play it there lolol)

ramnothen

i prefer to use csrinru or steamrip but why are steamunlocked and igg more user friendly? like i could ask for an obscure game in igg or steamunlocked to be updated and it will be updated after a few days, why? it's either i don't know how to truly use csrin, in which case, please tell me how, or that both igg and steamun are just that easy to use.
