Just a quick note that we will be cleaning up the accounts of those player that abused the commendation pack glitch last week. Don't worry if you only openned a handfull you'll be fine but there were some extreme cases that need to be dealt with (2400?! Seriously?!Image IPB).  We're going to be removing the Commendation weapons from these accounts.

Did I read this right? You're saying that one single individual opened 2400 gift packs?!


Yes

So, you're letting people keep the weapons if they "only" opened a "handful"? Should probably give that handful out to everybody then...


You got another gift pack this week, and oppurtunity to get up to 3 weapons this weeks challenge

what about the people who abused the glitch, did they also get the 3 packs this week? if so that still makes it unfair

You can not use that argument in this case because CmnDwnWrkn is saying everyone should get more weapons, there is no way to explictly exclude the people that abused this.

So the message is it's cool to take advantage of glitches if you do so in moderation?  Maybe you'll even gain a fresh bounty of n7 weaponry if you're lucky?


We made a determination of what is considered "taking advantage of" and "using accidentitally"

That's crap. Why punish players for something that is clearly an in game glitch? If you don't like people taking advantage of glitches you should fix them before they become a problem rather than punishing players for playing your game. I mean its one thing to mod the game but this is uncalled for.


You are basing your information based on what you believe we are doing, we are not just straight out removing peoples commendation weapons and then walking away.

so were the commendation packs that were given out before the challenges were added taken into account? I dont think they were cause my account was "cleaned" and its not back to the way it was, im missing the crusader & 1 level off my valiant, eagle & valkyrie. Its bad enough i didnt get any of the items i was suppose to get from various promotions & the ME3 figures i bought but now i have stuff taken away cause of glitch that i didnt know was a glitch at the time. And no i didnt max out every weapon so dont say i "deserved it". Did i redeem more than i should've yes but that doesnt justify taken away the stuff i worked for.


What we did was took away all promo weapons, wiped the record of you having opened all commendation packs (and lodestar gift pack) so that you could re-open your packs.

Are they potentially the same weapons they were before, nope I will admit they might not be but your number of commendation weapons is equal the challenges you did.

I would think that is more or less a fair compromise, instead of just taking away all your weapons.

@cmdrjoe You completed 6 challenges, and now have 7 levels to your promo guns, so how did you lose time, other than to open those packs again?

@Ahms you are correct we did not give credit for prior to retaliation. To be fair you did open more than 25.
