AuroraSonicBoom 7,257 Posted August 23, 2013 So I decided to farm Kril for Frost, because out of all the frames that are currently part of the void "Meta", he's the one whose play style I dislike the least. I did a few runs with pugs who dropped in and out, and when the host left, I joined a new game. However when I joined the session, there were already like 5 or six other players present, hammering away at Kril. I decided to join them and of course we defeated him. He didn't drop anything, so we all rushed to the exit, expecting the squad to get dissolved as soon as the session is over. Strangely, nobody got kicked, so we all went ahead and revisited Exta, hoping to stay together and have a slightly easier time with the boss. Here's where it gets really funny. Apparently, more people kept joining the game, and with each new round, our squad grew bigger. By the end, we were 18 players in squad chat, and since the mechanics that scale the enemy's level still worked, we had to fight a level 206 Kril. The host apparently had a very good machine and net connection, because while it lagged a little bit, it was definitely playable and nobody really had any problems. It's also interesting to note that all of our auras gave their benefits to each player of the squad, which meant everyone had a super high energy recharge rate! After about 10 runs or so the host(which was just as surprised about the bug as everyone else) decided to leave, so our little team got disbanded. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted! Didn't get what I was coming for(Frost Systems), but what I got instead was much more valuable: A super fun and unique experience. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BadAimbot 683 Posted August 23, 2013 This is glorious. If it weren't such a drag on hosts I would love for something like this to have an official place in the game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LongDraw 522 Posted August 23, 2013 I'm picturing what this would be like on Xini with 12 Tenno in there at the same time. Or wait! 20 Tenno at the same time!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris9428 7,366 Posted August 23, 2013 this has got to be implemented at least in just one of the modes idc JUST PLEASE do it DE Well, either you're gonna be lucky to find someone who hosts this, or DE has to implement dedicated servers which will cost them more cash than they currently have (I guess).

Some of us wanted to try Outer Terminus, but the host was (presumably) Russian, so we couldn't really communicate with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WingsOfGryphin 737 Posted August 23, 2013 i don't think this is a bug. Since we have a Peer to Peer connection and every connection seems to go through the host - it's possible that the host has tinkered with the game to hide the count of players or the disband the limit. IT's just a theory, but i have encountered this before in - League of Legends. You could change the player limit and play a 6 v 6 (More ppl simply made everyone stuck in loading screen) in a Twisted Treeline (3 v 3 ) map. It was hell of a fun while it lasted - then it got patched and we never saw it again. (Only thing that was required was to download a soft and/ or edit a file) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoboDoge 18,096 Posted August 23, 2013 MOAR of this. Would be really fun if we could do 8-man raid-ish missions. But without servers, this can only be a dream. QQ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hipolipolopigus 844 Posted August 23, 2013 Old "bug", but definitely my favourite. The scaling adds a glorious amount of challenge, especially higher than Wave 50 for defence ;P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
