I would like to see a USB Authenticator and Phone App added to MWO. I've only spent $360 on the game so far, but I feel like my account isn't that well protected. My WoW account has had this, Star Wars has this, and even my Twitter, YouTube, and Google accounts have this.

Its not a high priority her, because your account has no value. A wow or swtor account can be taken, everything sold then the in game currency sold to others for profit.

That can't happen here. There's no money to be made, as the best that could be done would be changing your password then selling the whole account to someone else... But that clearly wouldn't work well because you'd report the theft, and have the account frozen pending investigation.

You don't really have anything to lose, and there's nothing to fain by hacking MWO accounts.
