[DE]Megan Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Some clarity is in order regarding the change in the Operation: Breeding Grounds scores. A bug in the game was discovered that allowed players to gain a point advantage in the Leaderboards by playing sessions that stepped outside the intended design of the event. The most recent hotfix ran a script that deducted the points and recalculated clan scores. We were able to specifically determine that the bug occurred 100% of the time on missions that yielded a score greater than 405, and simply removed these scores from totals and recalculated best scores. The most recent hotfix fixed the exploitable bug, and now the challenge will be equal as the event continues. We're sorry for the frustrations this has caused and we're sorry that this happened. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zendeath Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 So the event is a tie event and we were never meant to go over, why didn't you say this to begin with when you know you have a large number of competitive grinders in the community? You essentially let them waste a whole weekend due to incompetence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CandyDragon Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 All of these posters getting angry over points. What is the point in points over 48? I see this argument frequently. Why did you bother with getting 48 points? You wanted the reward. Just because the clan ranking reward isn't tangible doesn't mean it isn't any less sought after by players. Its nonsense to try and invalidate others goals simply because they do not line up with your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as I have posted in numerous forum posts they could have come onto forums and made a stickied forum post stating that it would change on monday so that the grinders wouldn't have bothered.

Towermice Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) Fixed it. lol, it's not an "exploit" it's a flaw in DE's coding that they overlooked. The "exploiters" just reached the limit and then enemies stopped spawning. Your telling me that "going further than you need to" is exploiting?

Zendeath Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Fixed it. You are really that stupid aren't you, it is something DE has known about for 6 months they knew it would happen on this event too. If they didn't change this what were top end players supposed to do sit there and watch the scores keep going and lose the rank they coulda had?

xShadowsaur Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 If anyone could help me it'd be appreciated because I'm still a tad confused. As far as I understand there was an exploit and now people can't have a "Best" score over 405, is that correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "exploiters" just reached the limit and then enemies stopped spawning. Your telling me that "going further than you need to" is exploiting? All exploits are flaws in coding that get overlooked, dude. If anyone could help me it'd be appreciated because I'm still a tad confused. As far as I understand there was an exploit and now people can't have a "Best" score over 405, is that correct? Basically, when your best score is 405, the enemies are level 9999. When you get above that best, the enemies reach level 10k plus, except the integer in the code only goes to 9999, so the enemies stop spawning rather than capping at 9999. Meaning every run after 405 is done on easy mode with no enemies. Apparently DE thought they fixed the bug six months ago but it reemerged here in a different form according to Blatantfool.

Bawalbaba Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Players are cheating for just a golden trophy, I wanna see those faces when they face the level 100+ Stalker on T4, I want to know if the leaderboard trophy helps them or not, grind you gear, play fair and don't give the greed of something you can achieve by playing fair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
