[DE]Rebecca 171,210 Posted October 29, 2013 As of last night at 9:15 PM EST we were alerted that the Spear node was acting in a way that suggested a bug was occurring with the event. We reviewed the data and sure enough error was present and the investigation began. This morning we reviewed further and discovered that this node was in-fact manually altered by a user who again struck this morning with the “Tharsis” node and subsequent active nodes. All compromised nodes will be excluded from event results. These nodes include: Spear, Tharsis, Martialis, and Augustus. Battle Pay will still be given out for these nodes. We are hotfixing now to continue the Gradivus Dilemma and are monitoring closely for suspicious activity for the remainder of the event. Edit: Your contributions to these nodes still count for your mission totals. 314 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hobocannibal 20 Posted October 29, 2013 Wow, I assume by altering it you mean the grineer/corpus power balance was changed? 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katakuna 16,818 Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) So you're tellin' me that a salty Corpus supporter was mad he was losing, and tried to cheat his team's way to victory? A victory through cheats ain't no victory at all. What I'm more concerned about is whether or not he or others will be able to do it again.

Oktober 31 Posted October 29, 2013 So... do you mean these nodes won't count towards clan totals, or not at all, as in, I'll have to re-run 10-15 missions just to get the tier 2 rewards? 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Meenmu 2,106 Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) I guess that public skinning with fruit peeler and rolling in salt is not an option supported and/or endorsed by DE? Cheese grater flails are so much more satisfying. Also, what Oktober said. Am I going to have to run like 15 missions again, or will affected missions still count for reward tiers?

I dont think they count for the overall territory captured, but runs and battle pay still count. Obviously Im not DE, but Im guessing thats it. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
