Ban Wave 5 - Oct 19th, 2012

It goes beyond this.
Yes, glitchers who make mad bank through cheats are unlikely to spend BW points to buy items in the store. However, I would say a minority of players buy anything in the store, cheater or legit. You don't have to. In-game credit covers everything. The very impatient might buy with actual BW points, but it does them no good; From the people I have spoken to, they didn't perceive any greater chance of getting UR items or weapons. Not worth the money, unless you drop quite a bit to muscle past the probability factors to just "get it all now". But you can earn that same money in an afternoon of playing Gold/Plat.
So cheaters are likely impatient, irretreivably bad players, bored into griefing, or all of these.
The only thing wrong with the store from my experience is that it sometimes dumps you from the server. It also seems that the probability of rares/UR dropping is sometimes... adjusted. I went months without finding two weapons, then after the last free DLC dropped, not only did I get all the new stuff within 400k worth of PSPs, I also got the two elusive weapons - both in a single PSP. If that does not flaunt the laws of probability, I don't know what does.
So why might Bioware care about stomping out cheaters if it's not about who is spending BW points? It goes to reputation. Why would the majority of players who do not cheat want to play a Bioware MP if it's nothing more than a wretched hive of scum and villany? That's a lot of engagement with people who are far more willing to be paying customers of paid DLC and other BW titles that will be lost if legit players give up in the face of rampant cheating.
People who will go elsewhere to have fun with their money.
i totally agree with that

That rocket hack is horrible.
Can't Bioware just look up total Cobra Missile Launcher points earned and ban people with super impossibly high amount of rocket points or something? (If they track points past 450,000)
True

How long did it take you to look that up? Anyhow, you're assuming these terms of agreement are laws, and specifically, common law. As in non-english based legal system this concept is entirely based on interpretation. Even in common law, the wether or not foreknowledge of a law broken exists can make a difference in the actual sentencing.
Obviously, there are things that are exempt from this, stealing for exemple is an obvious one, but say using your company's money for a certain purpose that was not explicitly forbidden would be judged very differently.
Thus, perma ban every single case without warning, explaination, or possiblity of lifting such a ban, is stupid, unfair to players banned, and detrimental to everyone's gaming experience. Your argument is invalihow
or how about the invincble ceberus soldier that cant be killed but can kill u i love that one

One game, as a Batarian Soldier after lobbing my first grenade I was unable to restock ammo, (although I could restock grenades) so spent the last 3 rounds punching things to death.
As a Turian Soldier, I had one match where I was unable to fire or use any skills until out of desperation I let a cerberus trooper eat me... after ressing I was fine again..
And then yesterday as Turian Soldier, my Proximity Mines started doing the same damage as a cobra missile. Only realised when a mine I'd left planted between rounds took out the entire spawn for the next wave.... That game may have been hacked as there was a krogan lobbing nades like there was no tomorrow for similar effect, and needless to say, I bailed on that game as quickly as I could and had to self report
Fortunately I'm kind of happy playing a sentinel, but at the moment it really sucks knowing there's at least one class I can't play for fear of landing myself a ban for a glitch or something that I don't notice

A few weeks ago I run into the glitch of 6/6/6/6/6/6. I really did not pay attention it I not even recognize at first just when I saw the negative numbers at the power screen later. I promote this class, but happen again, it was annoying, but I did not care much. I saw last week this is a bannable option. I simply not remember if I use a character like this or not. I usually level up the characters at the end of the day (without playing with them), but It may happen that I choose one of them in a lobby when I think a specific character needed.
It’s not about I used a character with 6/6/6/6/6/6 it rather I used a character at level 12 with an amount number of points for a level 18 character.
Now I play attention it and I currently I do not have any character with extra points. Also if I change a class fort and back the extra point vanished, so now I always do this before starting to spend the points.
My question is what do you think? Do I have to self report myself to prevent inconvenience?
I doubt this is a big deal, and in my logs must be clear i’m far from exploiting this glitch. It is a possibility I did not use it at all.
But I don’t know.

I figure its safer to say something and face loosing a couple of credits or acheivo points (i.e. nothing I can't recover playing with a legit character anyway) than not and risk loosing my account.
If you're persistently encountering the bug, it might even be worth raising the issue with tech support as well... maybe there's some underlying conflict or issue on your pc that makes your installation prone to it, etc etc
It's a lot of work for them, I've no doubt, as they'll need to check logs to see what you gained, potentially remove said gains, etc etc but I'm sure that BW would prefer to work a little harder and retain a player than see one lost to an auto-ban script.

Thanks. I wrote a PM to mr Tse about it a few days ago. Ufortunately it seems he wasn't on the forume since so I did not get an answer yet. I may waith a day more, but after it I take your advice and selfreport myselt to be sure. Better safe than sorry.
I care not the credits. (what is acheivo points?) I accept a punisment if I get one.
You right about they have a lot of work with it. This is why i ask this in the forum the first place.
I'm on Xbox and this glitch come up when I got a new character card. I maxed out them, but since we get a new one every week now this glitch is keep comeing back. Its not cause problem with the classes I do not promot and alredy at level 20, but there are a few class I promote reguraly.
Thx again.

To be honest I do not feel I did anything wrong. This glitch is soooooo anoying and makes me trouble like this.

Joined a Platinum game already in progress, and this turd was already missile glitching. As soon as I realized, I purposely died in a place swarmed with enemies, ruining the match for everyone.

I think that this is the best move for bioware... ban people right before COD and Halo 4 comes out... I would have a lil more respect and faith in banning people if we could ban from making video games when they say they fix something or made something better... Which missile glitch patch number is this? I think I lost count...
I hope your pics had more than high speed rank climbing. If you are willing to spend the money, you can pretty much buy your XP in the store.

And I also think lots of people are just freaking about the missiles. I have 800 hours in the MP, and I never saw that glich. However, know from experience (since I have it myself) that you can pretty much take 6 missiles per match. With 4 players with 6 missiles each, it's 24 missiles. Enough for a missile fest in a match. Ocasionally, you'll enter a match where everyone will be willing to used them all, and it happens.

I have no idea how to submit this in a ME3 perceptive. I submitted player reviews and filed a complaint via Xbox live.
Dude named Arsenic Venom on Xbox live was using what looked like the infinite missile glitch. I left during wave 3, I think, just to make sure he was actually doing it. No kills except for missile kills from him.
Huzzah for ****s, I suppose :/

I joined a platinum lobby he tried to do the missile glitch and failed. I quit; made a new lobby same guy joined i didn't know right away and he missile glitched the entire game.

Do I have to waste my 3 respec cards on fixing my three 6/6/6/6/6/6 characters? If I promote those classes, the glitch will just happen again next time I happen to draw a character card for those classes.
When you run into this glitch, simply do no assign any of the glitched talent points to any of the powers, just click on confirm and go back to character selection screen, pick a different kit from the same/different class (Pre-retaliation kit) then go back to the character selection screen and pick the kit which had glitched points, you will notice that the glitched points will be gone and you will only have the amount of points you are supposed to have

Wish I had known this before just now... Just ran into this glitch for the first time, for my Volus Adept. Is there somewhere I should be reporting it, or...?
[edit] oh lol never mind i figured out how to fix it... don't mind me ...

This guy was in a gold match with this guy around 7EST on 28/11/2012 and he missile glitched waves 1-8 and then leached the rest of the way. Avoid this piece of garbage if you're on Ps3.
