Posted July 8, 2008 Zarnibuddha reported a serious bug with C.O.D that produced money, which would cause a lot of problems with the economy if it was exploited. I'll always reward such bug reports handsomely so upon his request he was given a farwalker amulet and a fearsome crocodile which he will try to tame. The crocodile will probably be a fairly tough opponent since it is very skilled. It is not a champ croc though - I can't summon special types yet. Leave chompy alone for a week or until he's out of his pen whichever comes first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 8, 2008 I take it you checked he hasn't already exploited it and offloaded the money somewhere, or bought stuff with it? Also what will happen to us if we go and kill the croc? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 8, 2008 I found a big (in my opinion) exploit back in the day... It was allowing me to perform any action in half of usual time. I dont remember timers on improving items (they vary depending on your skill, tool's QL and WoA) but i remember I could push/pull/turn items in 2sec, create healing covers in half of usual time (don't remember what's usual time =P 42sec?). Everything could be done 2x faster but the skillgain was regular. I reported it and got a generous "Thank You" from a GM (don't remember his name, it was long time ago) Peace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 8, 2008 i can not even politly say how i feel atm > Would you rather have a string of size 200 MR villages on heavies leading up to your door? Get over it, he reported a very important bug. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 8, 2008 LOL - he can ------------------------------, but report one bug & you want to make him a "god" now. - this is just hilariuos. Anyways - I must say thanks for reporting the bug, no matter how I feel about your game playing. (please do not accuse others of "hax" if you are not going to report it directly to a GM in /dev - Dream Master) we did report it, someone had to take it into their own hands & they got in trouble for it - very nice.

Posted July 8, 2008 LOL - he can use all the client side hax know to mankind, but report one bug & you want to make him a "god" now. - this is just hilariuos. Anyways - I must say thanks for reporting the bug, no matter how I feel about your game playing. Yeah, he's using so much haxx, that he dies quite a few times. : But I guess, regardless who would have gotten a reward for reporting such a bug, someone will always complain about it.

Posted July 8, 2008 I don't think some of you realize just how bad of a bug this is, considering it would have been possible to spawn an infinite amount of gold coins. Just give the guy his dues. Good job Zarni. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
