AGS knew about the exploit and rushed out a patch to fix it. It took them two days to get the patch to live. In those two days companies used the exploit to take multiple territories that they still hold. AGS chose not to disable wars and allowed it to happen. There was nothing done to the people that have greatly benefitted from using the exploit.
Beyond that, AGS has not even acknowledged that the exploit existed or was used.
Craft gear with resources that are not legendary? That gets shut down instantly.
i asked a player, quite reasonably why he would exploit and why he would cheat like thatā¦ the response i got was eye opening. āthe devs WANT me to cheat, they WANT me to find ways to break their game. its why they put stuff in early access. its okay to do this because they want me to do it and i see no reason to stopā. i appreciated his honestyā¦ and yes i realize the irony of that lol.
At this point the meta of the game has become exploit early and exploit often because AGS refuses to do anything about it. If you do not abuse the exploits you are left behind with no real way of catching up.
I am trying to get AGS to admit that this is the reality that they have created and explain why or how they are going to change this.
yep, and ive seen some horrible abuses of it, watched a mega company on my first server dominate the map with exploits. killed our server population and then got merged to another server.
Still waiting. I am sure that AGS is busy coding the next exploit but we would like to hear something about what they plan to to do the people that abuse it.
If they canāt undo the results of an exploit they should do a rollback.
But based on AGSās history, nothing will happen. Yes, not even serious dupe issues or weeks of players exploiting weapon and armor glitches.
