Everyone get RNG out of your head. RNGs do not get updated, nor can they be programmed to give out bad results. Algorithms which interpret the random number provided by the RNG can be misprogrammed, either unintentionally or deliberately.
Thank you for clearing this up for me. My next question would then be, why would the algorithm need to be updated for an existing game that is presumably running fine?
