Giant mounds of cocaine due to all the ~*~HERO OF THE NORTH~*~ money. Pretty good scam, to be quite honest.
-
Given that this is a beta, wipes should be expected. Cryptic should also not allow exploits that have existed since Star Trek Online.
-
Given that this has been going on since day 1? No, not really. Especially since given they allowed this to occur after the same thing happening for nine months in STO, I don't think PWE/Cryptic know the definition of "precision" or "patience". Precision would have had the copy/pasted AH code vetted for lack of issues.…
-
Splendid. We should expect the full server wipe within the hour, then, yes?
-
Assuming that PWE has fixed the exploit (which is a stretch, but), how do you presume they would "repeat and gain even more"?
-
"fairest manner possible" "manner that does not correct the economic damage" pick one
-
Yeah, who needs an "economy".
-
Well we know they're not going to do the fairest solution (wipe the game to OB Launch state), so...
-
Character names are not unique, so that is not a concern.
-
The FAQ says that a wipe will be performed in advance of Headstart, which was prior to the current state, which PWE calls "open beta" but is effectively a soft launch where they get to hide behind "beta" as an excuse for any bugs or poor state of the game. But no, we're well into their "NO WIPES EVAR !!!!!1111" territory,…
-
Their prerogative to put their own selfishness over the long-term longevity of the game. Now you're getting it.
-
Well when people bail on the game because the economy is in shambles, you can have your $150 worth of fun by yourself, I guess. Pretty expensive masturbation session, though.
-
Yes, we're well aware that PWE is really dumb with their handling of this situation.
-
Which is silly because this situation would be served 100x better by a full wipe, given that this has been going on since the word "go".
-
Ah, but PWE would do nothing so manipulative and pay to win as requiring $10 wards for best-in-slot enchantments, would they?
-
Ah, youthful naive optimism.
-
Mhm. And why you didn't actually fix this by a full wipe (since this has been going on since day 1)... why?
-
True dat. 20 silver cats for all.
-
The only people who would leave due to a complete wipe are those who care about their own stuff more than the long-term health of the game. One would think that the game would be better off without them.
-
Given that the current plans are to merge all shards into one "eventually(tm)", that wouldn't do much.
-
Given that the bug was in place since Alpha (and accurately, since Star Trek Online) and Cryptic/PWE didn't fix it? He'd be my friend too. Hell, I'd be jealous that he thought of it before I did.
-
To be fair, that was pretty obvious from the "we aren't doing any wipes!" and the cash shop being 100% open. Just sayin'. (I am sympathetic, though. This is why you should nail them to the wall with a chargeback.)
-
Well, you could always file a chargeback. You'd be well within your rights to...
-
Given that the exact same exploit lasted over nine months in STO, I wouldn't trust PWE to code their way out of a paper bag.
-
A sane economy (since the rollback is not to day 1 of OB).
-
"Reliable source"? Such a thing exists within PWE?
-
This your first MMO, or?
-
What was really amateurish was ignoring bug reports since alpha AND the fact that this exact same bug - with exact same steps to reproduce - was in Star Trek Online for over nine ****ing months. Only issuing a 7 hour rollback for an issue that's existed since OB soft-launch is also pretty amateurish, but that's the big one.
-
You say that like that's possible.
-
I know I reported this during Closed Beta 2 and 3. Edit: It also existed in Star Trek Online. For over 9 months.
