I'm seeing posts, and hints here and there, that despite the rollback AND the patch after the rollback, people are still able to craft the exploit weapons.
This CAN'T be true. The devs CAN'T be that incompetant.

Yup, I just got confirmation.
That...blows my mind. I knew the game was buggy, but this means they'll have to roll all the way back to before the last patch...which was, what..over a week ago?

Please pm me this person who has crafted or used this said weapon, thanks.
Regards.
After they ahve stated they will "Sanction" people that exploit or use the exploited items.
When a single person in their staff can just login online to find out themselves if it is true or not!
Freaking everyone already stated the steps on how to replicate it anyways for a week now!!!
Jesus H. Christ Junior!!!
Can't they even figure out the simplest things to do to check it themselves without having the community tell them how to do it?!?!?!
I bet that they didn't figure out the "Refundee able to login bug" until people started posting about it in the forums!

Have to agree with you here yet again Kilim. After their cultivated statement about sanctioning ppl who exploit or use the exploit, etc etc ahem...it appears they cant seem to figure out how to watch for this. Nor can they simply log in and find out if the friggin thing is fixed or not!! And aye, the refundees able to log in (but didnt they then say they were leaving it open for the chance the refundees may change their minds -- in effect stating they are allowing the refundees in as a favor to them ? O.o) Player-made fixes, player-made manuals, player-made launchers --- its incredible that the player fanbase is performing the jobs of the inept developers. Its even more incredible that the players are paying them for the privledge to do their jobs. When the hell does the next class in making an mmorpg begin? NPC needs to make sure they all get to class and stay after for tutoring.
Patching live without testing it is incredibly ignorant in and of itself. Patching live and THEN not testing it is yet another ignorant step on top of an ignorant step. Beleiving players- who are hanging on by a fine thread as to being an ongoing customer-will keep up the potential fantasy after this complete and utter show of the lack of knowledge as well as common sense on the devs part is the ultimate incredible arrogance.
They are making again another big mistake.
They are priorizing adding missing content over general client-server stability and gamestoping bug fixing so they can seduce new people(the ones that they already got are not enough to keep this project living).
One general rule of development:
1% working content > 95% crashing content.
But,of course,you dont sell accounts by advertizing bug-free status(ppl think the release implies this status wich is true to certain level).You sell accounts by advertizing features.
I dont know if I must feel pity for this dev team seeing how much desperate they are or If i must get angry of this kind of unethical behaviors.
Dude, this is exactly why we are laughing so hard and these forums. Because that is indeed what happened. Farlan didn't even know what a "rollback" was until the players started demanding one. It's just common knowledge to announce that there will be a rollback to X date, once the exploit is fixed.
Farlan just rolled back the servers without understanding why they were doing it.... They are THAT inept and incompetent ..!

No one has admited with evidence to creating an uber weapon since rollback/patch
It is a rumor only (obviously the "realists" think it's true)
Cheers
You have to somehow at least admit the amateurish way they have started the project and the way they make these patches.
They already stated they have a "Closed Beta" server to test things out in.
Yet they are somehow unable to find these GLOBAL Bugs prior to making the patches LIVE.
Yet they still keep the NDA for the "Closed Beta" due to their "Closed Beta" server to be live for "Test" purposes ...
Yet they do a Rollback that was suppose to fix a GLOBAL Bug that didn't fix the problem that was the cause of the Rollback and yet another "Tested" patch went live to fix these GLOBAL Bugs and each time new mahor bugs arises from it ...
MANY games have made available to their customers the ability to login to a "Test Server" for the purpose of testing patches and bugfixes PRIOR to its LIVE Release!
Do you honestly think Farlan is perusing their "Test Server" to test their patches PRIOR to it going LIVE?
You reading between the lines here yet or does a "realist" have to break it down Barney style to you?

Here is a post of someone that was locked by Xelph about an exploit weapon used:
Here is another one before that just got posted:
http://www.darkandlight.net/forums/showthread.php?t=66402
I think there was another one soemwhere, just can't find it now.
Maybe the reasons some people haven't posted about the exploit being there still after the latest patch is ... maybe they decided to stop playing?

Someone suggested a good idea.
Can't remember it exactly but it was something like.
Fix the Bug.
Tell everyone to put all items in their Banks.
Close server down,delete all bags and replace them with new empty bags.
Go through each and every bank and search for bugged weapons.
(would be quite easy to write that program if you work as a progammer i guess)
ban those with bugged weapon in the bank.

Even if they fixed the bug with craftable Uber-weps, rolled back the server.. what does that do to the people who still have the original godlike weapons...?
The world is so huge you can kill shit for a week and not see another... This game does not have backbone code that allows tracking or buildng a case for an explioter. It has to be witnessed and documented... PERIOD
If you happen to see another on radar... remote chance then swap out your wep.
The rollback has removed those weapons from the game, therefore it FIXED nothing...!
