MoonZapdos Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 30 minutes ago, Spear was being conquered by the Corpus at a rate of about 0.2% per 10 minute, and it had been so for a few long hours, sitting on 28%. Suddenly, in but 30 minutes, it shot up to 44%. That's 16% in 30 minutes. That would mean that suddenly, there's 80 times more Corpus players fighting for the node. I saw the progress bar shoot up 3% in the blink of an eye. It wasn't even gradual progress. The bar literally moved 3% in a single instantaneous update. I demand an explanation. You better not be rigging this event, DE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixty5 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Corpus are making a final push, or it could be servers being laggy. I've had the leaderboard say I'm ranked 9th with 205 pointys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomhrio Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 shenanigansspeargate pls. at least DE should mask the cheating by gradually adding points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icebreccer Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Of course they are rigging the event. The only thing you see is just random percentages. Also what's the reward for Spear ATM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haldos Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Could be that the bulk of Grineer support is moving to Martialis to push it in their favor as fast as possible, thinking their hold on Spear would be sustained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deicul Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) Very unlikely that, it wouldn't jump that fast even if every last player from grineer bolted to some other node. Mind, that after about 30 minutes it returned to normal progress. Seems like DE is trying to inject some artificial intrigue, without bothering to be subtle.

waaaaaaaals Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 If you can't "even" the score by stacking rewards, give the side silent boosts and hope nobody is paying too much attention or has been keeping detailed statistics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rathie Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) Of course they are rigging the event. The only thing you see is just random percentages. Also what's the reward for Spear ATM? Spear offers 5 Fieldrons. :) I've also seen it shoot up but I'm thinking that it may just be the server not giving out a steady stream of info : Edited October 29, 2013 by Rathie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firetempest Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 All the Grineer doing the flux rifle on Martialis said "EH, the grineer wont mind one node missing." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icebreccer Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 I want some kind of grand surprise before the event ends. Something "unexpected" and hilarious in its own way. If the event just ends without something interesting it will be sooo laaaaaame... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cholly266 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Spear offers 5 Fieldrons. :) I've also seen it shoot up but I'm thinking that it may just be the server not giving out a steady steam of info : If the cause of the sudden jump was a lack of constant info, then why was it moving at a steady rate before this?

Comrade Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) 5 fieldron vs. 100k credits. it would be logical for corpus to win, but ofc theres those diehard grineer supporters. UPDATE: The bar jumped to 43.9 percent. Idk. Edited October 29, 2013 by TheKGBComrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UPDATE: The bar jumped to 43.9 percent. Idk. What you say, actually happened. It took us over 12 hours to slow down and eventually start reversing spear back to grineer. Then it shot up corpus side for a short period at 10x the speed (almost 20% in 20 minutes). Now its back to normal. If this doesn't sound extremely weird, then i dont know what it is.

ArmyOfFun Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) Well the grineer have the flux rifle as a prize, and people without clans may need the feldron to make the rifle. Edited October 29, 2013 by Rankless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this doesn't sound extremely weird, then i dont know what it is. because grineer players who want the reward for their flux rifle all did 5 missions. and went back to the other grineer missions. 20% seems plenty for a mass of people to switch sides with no continued fighting to ruin their score further.

-RG-Jezus Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 The funny thing is, this coincides with corpus logins and if you check the corpus leader boards in the same time they changed dramatically. Basically, Corpus players logged on and started fighting back. All day the nodes gradually move towards Grineer as they get their 5 wins and move on as they believe they cant loose. and then the corpus players log in and push back. tldr: Corpus players started playing, Grineer players see this as unfair and don't consider that Corpus supporting clans log in at different times to the Grineer and now HAVE TO run the same location 20 to 30 times to have even a chance of the better looking rewards.

If that was the case grineer % on spear would be still dropping, but they don't. I find it unbelievable that all interested grineer players did that in span of 30 minutes.

MoonZapdos Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 All those who claim this is legit are failing to see the point here. It wasn't a gradual increase. The bar's progress just suddenly shot up. Also those who claim it has to do with logins and Fieldrons have no idea what they're talking about. It went up in 30 minutes more than the combined amount the Corpus pushed Ara and Quirinus (and the rewards were Reactors, so they were being carried by greedy pubs), and it wasn't gradual. The transition wasn't even subtle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
