Hey now, there are plenty of games that have had money duping problems. Star Wars Galaxies, FFXI, WoW; 3 highly recognized names that had issues with such exploits.
However, I don't know too many games that had such TREMENDOUS leveling exploits present.
So you guys can flame me and give me the "it happens in other games" stuff all you want, but I guess this is just the first time I've noticed one of this magnitude. I don't recall seeing anyone hitting 60 in WoW in a day off a leveling bug.
Sorry, the "it's still in beta" garbage isn't really applicable here anymore.
As dragonace said, we'll have to see how quickly they remedy the situation to see if it's a truly significant problem.
Has anyone been saying "it's still in beta" lately? If they have, I guess I haven't seen it. And I agree, it isn't applicable anymore. Like it or not, Vanguard is now released. I think it's worth playing right now in it's current state - others don't.
It remains to be seen what it will be like in 3-4 months, but if the current patches are an indication; I think a lot of the wait-and-see's will be pleased.
My guess is it is something like a quest which when completed under a certain circumstance, the "completion flag" (for lack of a better term) is not set, and they can close the window, click on the quest NPC again, click complete, rinse and repeat...ad-nauseum.
(Then get reset to Phase-1/Day-1 the next morning and start crying about how it is not fair his character data was erased, and how he lost "all that time," etc.)
Truly brilliant thinking...
and probably right on the money.
