Title: List of bugs BRD and their alliances expoliting
Post by: Noctivagant on August 05, 2011, 07:33:42 pm
I'd like to inform devs about some bug abuses we encountered

1 Attacking from inside of a fief

Goal : keeping the tickets in the area without getting teleported to the other side of the map

2 Locking up armies and now showing up in the battle

Goal : delaying the attacking army without getting any sort of punishment

3 The latest one : Sending crappy equipment to the enemy

Goal : to keep their item window crowded, preventing the attackers (or defenders) from using their own equipment.

Full list of items we received before the battle

1 and 2 dont sound like exploits at all, sounds like common sense and strategic advantages.


3 could be fixed by 'accept' trade function.  So you dont get the stuff unless you accept the trade.  Lots of pvpers do stupid stuff like that in pvp MMO's.  they typically have an option to decline trades from players outside of your guild/group

Sending lots and lots of cheap single items to an attacker who is locked in battle, so the attackers can't select their own gear.
There is a limit to how many items you can see ingame, thus making it impossble to spawn with gear.

Devs!?

The use of this bug is breaking of official servers' rules. The one (or multiple people) who used this will be obviously punished.

Correction you can see all your gear, it just gets super tiny and funny (try it out on battle server just buya  bunch of crap).  It used to hide equipment, which was a glitch, but a patch a long time ago fixed that.

It's good to see a post agreeing with Nocti from someone other than a merc.

Oh wait!

I'm simply pointing out that there has been no input from anyone but Merc butt buddies. Well, there was Diggles, who suggested a soultion, which everyone then ignored. And Kesh, who was clarifying the scenario and got muted.

Furthermore, if you want to get personal. I'm sure I can come up with some insults for your lonely, ugly, and unloved self.

I swear I am not making this post because of this statement.

I do agree that number 1 and 3 are glitches.

Surely there is some sort of log that will show who transferred all the equipment? I agree with Diggles' suggestion though, an accept or decline option would fix this problem.

Number 2 is more of a strategy though you are saying they don't recieve any punishment because their spawn is captured? Or is there some other bug surrounding this?

Number 1 is a huge bug and when paired in combination with number 2 is even more infuriating. I have noticed that you can attack people from within a village but you can not join a village after attacking someone. Therefore you just have to implement an auto-kick from the fief when you attack someone I suppose which shouldn't be too difficult of a fix I think.

actually #1 isnt a big deal... if you lose when attacking you dont get moved on map anyways regardless of whether they cap your spawn or whether you are in a village.

It looks like its selectable but no, you see the item but you cannot select it. I was unable to select my equipment at least 10 minutes, I heard it was also impossible to select siege shields, arbalests, arrows, bolts etc.

If anyone wants to try it, just buy shit loads of crap equipment in cRPG and try to select your own equipment in public servers. BRD and their mercs were a lot more careful this time, I wish you didn't do that item bomb.
