Skaleek Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 If they were in fact using third party programs to achieve such scores, there should be no mercy when it comes to punishment of these individuals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dadaddadada Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Either the clients or host slowed host's computer down by spamming abilities and particles, which in turn lengthened the timer because the host was slooooow. Hence the mentioning of low-end PC's timer. :P NO WAY. Are you telling me that the timer on the host was... framerate-based?? I can't believe this oh gosh. Such a technical let down.

2ply Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 DE, I wish you were stricter on exploiters. You are trying to be too nice to everybody no matter what they do, people will always take advantage of you because of that. Control your game please! Just wipe the "old" leaderboards and hand out warnings and maybe a temp ban if you find that they are continuing to exploit in the future. I agree with this 100% EVERY SINGLE WORD...

Hoezell Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 What was the exploit anyway? At first i thought people just found a way to make the mission endless and keep poking at it. doesn't look like so tho. I'm at the board there and all I have to say is: No idea.

Gurzil Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Highwinds rank 3 ? Psh, we're supposed to be 2, pls to update, on a side note, I just wasted a ton of resources since DE's resetting the leaderboards. GG no re. Edit : This almost feels like Breeding Grounds over again : punish the ones working way harder than others to make it on top of the Leaderboards, no wonder Tenn Os got sick of it. Edit 2 : To the uhm, I don't want to use the word "dumbass", but I merely see another one to qualify the person that answered me, Tenn Os didn't use exploits, they were theorycraft gods. It consists in using what you're given at it's best potential, for maximized results, and they did a hell of a job at it. That's not exploiting the game, because you're not "cheating", you're using the tools that DE THEMSELVES gave you. You knew you were lagging out the server. Don't try to QQ about it and make some honorable mention of Tenn O's. Props to them and it was a sad loss to the game, but this event isn't Breeding Grounds. If you understand the damage possible from Archwings then you have no argument in support of the scores in question. Resources? Bah.. Get your grind on, you have two weeks.

dadaddadada Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 (edited) or the host froze the timer with cheat engine, he's the host, he's the server, its treated as a server side event I thought warframe was entirely able to detect any form of disassembler/cheat engine of sorts running on itself. The mentioning of the timer on low-end pcs is suspicious tho so i tend to disagree with your version.

Podge Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Lol "10 Tenno" and "Just Team" you guys had score which even moon clan couldn't pull off Hats off to you Geniuses Exploiters. i'm not gonna say that those guys werent cheating, but it is mathematically possible, and in fact, probable, for a ghost or shadow clan to get a much higher score than a moon clan. the way they did the clan scorin is thus: it takes the high scores of all of your members, adds them together, and then divides by the number of possible members for your tier. the score you get depends more on the percentage of clan members who scored, so a ghost clan with all ten members playing the event has potential for a higher score than a moon clan with 990 out of 1000. on another note, i'm pretty sure the individuals with 2,000,000,000-ish points were probably cheating.

Not to mention, even if they did have to do anything, the very severity and extent of whatever they chose to do is up to them. It appears they've made their choice. Frankly, there is no way to tell who specifically used these "exploits" or glitches intentionally, to my knowledge of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[DE]Rebecca Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 (edited) We will certainly be checking in as a team and discussing how to deal with this issue (as event blunders seem par for the course), but please also be aware it is the Saturday of the Holiday weekend and we are a little on the under-manned presently, resulting in a more delayed decision making process than usual. I understand not everyone may sympathize with that, but it's the truth. Edited December 21, 2014 by DERebecca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
