Idunhavaname Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Anyone know? Wondering if I should save PvP comms on alts for 60 gears or spend em now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackNader Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I will laugh my *** off if they finally fix the com exploit. The PvP community outrage will be epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaoZhao Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 That would be really, really weird, even for BioWare Austin. I don't really see the point in stacking commendations (and certainly not weapons) anyway. What's the rush? You really want to be marginally stronger than the people in Brutalizer while running those new dailies. Oh, okay, I guess you'll be marginally harder to gank. I hope it was worth the effort of buying and selling PVP rifles every hour, while you play. Gear shouldn't be something that you lust over. You get it when you get it. It's all good.

Evolixe Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) I will laugh my *** off if they finally fix the com exploit. The PvP community outrage will be epic. I don't think there would be an outrage. After all that wouldn't even be justified. People might complain.. but it wouldn't explode. If bioware intends to do that though, instead of *********** everyone over with a massive trollface.. They could just inform us right about now. And nobody would be allowed to complain.

Evolixe Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Personally I'm generally far too lazy to bother with itemstacking prepatch though.. I tried once and screwed it up. Massive waste of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackNader Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) And how exactly would they fix it? Meh... They would probably change it to a global timer which continues to decay while logged out. Edited October 13, 2014 by JackNader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolixe Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 And how exactly would they fix it? Automatically bind all vendor fully-refundable items upon a patch? Not exactly that hard.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masih_ad_dajjal Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) Even if they just made the trade back time something like 15 min it would be impossible to even play and be able to trade items back in time.... Which still allows you to trade back upon making a mistake. Also I also never do this and think very few people do (tried once)... Like Evolixe said it is just too much of a pain in the ***... I'll wait my 2 seeks to 1 month before I'm all "rank" tier depending on how much I'm playing... With bolster it's really just not that important in my experience. Of course this time everyone will be below "starter" tier pvp gear cause no one will even be lvl 60 for at least a few hours.... But....

Warn people up front and if you screw up it's your own fault. No right to complain. WoW does it, I don't see why SWTOR couldn't.

Crimson-Omega Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 If you guys actually read admin posts on xpac updates or watch interviews with bioware team they will be reseting wz and ranked wz coms when xpac releases they are very aware of the exploit and plan on not letting it continue. its the same thing when people exploited the game when they were selling warzone mods on GTN Bam fixed after 2 days of it happening. Now with this many weirdos exploiting the game then braging bout it on forums go read bioware policies its a banable if you get caught exploiting in any manner. and anyways you guys must not pay attention to interviews or game updates if you think they are going to allow it in the next expansion.

Exploit? Banable? Weirdos? Bragging? Oh please. I was inclined to believe you, but seeing that you have some sort of bone to pick with pvpers, now I'm wondering if you're just trolling.

Technohic Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 They should fix the exploit by removing the cap. Why not let people earn all their comms and save them for when they want them? I mean; don't they believe in their own crummy bolster system to where who has it and who doesn't shouldn't be an issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trading in weapons isn't really an exploit when the game itself is designed to function that way and has remained so ever since they introduced the refund system. People like you also said they would do this before brut gear came out that they would fix the "exploit" but they never did. BW doesn't really care. I've been doing the weapon trick since they introduced the refund system and I've never once even gotten a warning. If they actually cared they would have done something about it a long time ago.

Technohic Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Im just going to use 12x XP and level an army of gunslimgers so then I can just use legacy gear and do dailies on each one to gear up faster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raansu, what you just said is the definition of an exploit. Players are using the current system in a manner that was never intended to be used. In other words, they are exploiting the system for personal gain. As for BW "not caring," I wouldn't be so quit to judge that to be the case. They've closed the loops on a few "exploitable" things in this game, like respecting during a PvP match. I wouldn't be surprised if they did make a decision to stop those using the refund system in the manner they are doing now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was field respec silly in warzones? Yes, but it definitely was not an exploit. The only exploit would be those using macros to quickly respec instantly.
