So I met a pilot who is three days old and take him under my wing. I'm not MLG but he can learn for sure. we bang out a few co-op bot matches and I can tell he is good or smurfing (not the point). We complete a bot destruct with the two of us. We hit a UK server and do another bot destruct.

 

On the last wave, after all bots and two bosses down me and my party fellow lose connection.

 

Is this a new exp scam or random? Been playing about two years and never come across this.

If you drop from a match, you do not keep your earnings (xp/hc).

I like going against the best of any game I play. Helps you in the long run n motivates u to do more. Always room for improvement not failure

Please confirm that the following points are accurate:

  • You were playing bot destruction and on the last round you disconnected from the game. Mechs started walking in place, the game wasn't responding, etc. Shortly after you either force-quit Hawken or you were kicked back to the main menu.
  • Around the same time, you got a notification that the other guy left the party.

 

If both points are accurate, then you got disconnected from the game.

 

If the first point isn't accurate, then the other guy left / got disconnected / etc.

Yes, that's one of the points of this thread. Greifing is an issue for sure among other issues.

If the Dev team updated how the exp works in bot destruct I would not have known about it.

I was playing tech, battle tech to confirm. Could not upgrade or heal. Everyone was moon walking.

Just after that noise my party member and myself grouped up again. There didn't seem to be a connection error.

Ok, fruit fellow, let me explain.

 

The end of the match I was on some sort of pause. Could not heal, could not damage. Bots were walking into a member of my team, bot on bot.

So I watch the "moon walk" dance and before I can exit the match my buddy already has an invite for me.

 

What I am saying is, people cou8ld be taking advantage of this new owned system.

Those are telltale signs of a disconnect from the game server, or one hell of a lag spike.

He said the same thing I was thinking. As best as we can tell, you are describing symptoms of a disconnect. We are having trouble identifying why you think there's an exploit at play.

1. Wtf is a bladeasaurus

2. You came in here with an incoherent question, someone pointed out that a key component of your post was missing, and you think the most optimal decision to make is to drop 12 year old COD insults? There are communities out there which better match your demeanor than this one. GTFO.

Wizrad,
You still have yet to explain the scam here. Maybe my small pleb brain can't comprehend the gibberish you are typing but it appears more so that you haven't a clue what you are talking about. +1 on trying to help a new player though, so you aren't a total waste.

Pubstomping is a whole different strategic discussion, however, and usually just becomes an exploration of the ethics of dumpstering randos.

Doesn't someone have to profit for something to be a scam?  I'm confused; if you both disconnected/were disconnected, as the moonwalking indicates, neither of you gained any EXP or HC from that round of co-op.  It sounds like you both ended up with connection issues and your buddy just figured out it was happening before you did, so he dropped and invited you to the next game to keep playing.

 

It also strikes me as counter-productive to insult someone trying to clarify your question so as to provide a satisfactory response.  Also, passive aggression is dumb.

Jesus christ. This was obviously just an ill-timed connection timeout. It happens. There is no scam.

Please contribute again after checking your attitude at the login screen.

Clickbait threads attract derision. Clear concise questions will usually* get you clear concise answers.

With my opinion of this thread out of the way, please keep playing and helping new players. That is respect worthy and deserves acknowledgement.

Well, in this community, most of us are friends and very familiar with each other, we take crap on each other with no intent to offend or anger anyone, we learned to live with it and have fun going at each other. I don't give a flying fuzzy bunny if you think that's no good, and it may be, but fuzzy bunny it, that's how it is bruh.

 

And you're still welcome to take crap all over this fuzzy bunny.

Hey man, I totally understand, don't listen to the haters, I kind of think it was some sort of maligned effort by someone who wants to ruin the normal player experience, I wrote about it here: https://community.pl...rd-cup/?p=83159

Its the bots. It is the beginning of AI self awareness. First the AI scam new players out of their xp and hc, then they corner the market on hawken coins, then take over the world.

I don't know if it's because I'm having a tough time recovering from the hangover but I'm completely and utterly lost as to what is happening in this thread. From the confusing OP to his even more confusing responses.

 

 

I've read it 3 times now and I'm still lost.

I guess?  The answer to your original question's in there at least three times too, but somehow you haven't noticed yet.  Must be the fake drugs!
