Sending money at round start by circumventing the 2-3 minute time restriction?
Priceless.
The 2 minute no cbill sharing restriction only applies when you suicide or reconnect. Players are allowed to share/pool money at the start of the match by design.
Maybe CSJ cheated/exploited and maybe they didn't. I do find it interesting that CSJ defends their honor and claims that they would never cheat/exploit when there is indeed proof of questionable ethics and behaviour.
So the guy doesn't have proof, but don't berate him under the guise that CSJ members are all above exploiting.
Well, the two issues I tried to address in this thread was:
1) Whether or not this is a known exploit, a new exploit, or a misunderstanding.
2) Whether or not CSJ was guilty in this case/these cases.
Issue 1 was addressed by:
- Cash sharing, disconnecting, and reconnecting is a known exploit.
- Cash sharing at the start of a match by running BA/a cheaper asset in order to purchase more expensive starting assets is a feature.
- In ComeandSee's case, the second situation he reported, in which (I believer) Roi purchased a Huit Prime using the cash from Riker was not an exploit and was in fact a use of one of the game features.
Issue 2 was addressed by:
- In his original post, the first situation in which he described SJ rolling out "LT's + heavy mechs / vehicles" could have been a result of exploiting or a result of team coordination; it's impossible to determine by word of mouth, especially with no documentation and no supporting evidence from either side of the argument. I chose to run off the assumption that most units (TLL, CHH, CSJ, 1FSAC, 7.WD, CJW, etc.) are generally above exploiting, and stated so in my earlier post, suggesting instead that it may have been a misunderstanding.
- As stated above, the second case turned did actually turn out to be a misunderstanding.
Now, as to CSJ defending their honor, I feel this is a response that most units/persons would take in a situation in which they feel the have been wronged. You may have misunderstood some posts though, as the only instance I can find in this thread in which CSJ "defends it's honor" is Maus simply stating "don't go throwing around baseless accusations directed at the entirety of my unit please", which again I feel is a response most units/players would take against such an accusation. While his other post my be a bit spiteful, I feel it is in line with the posting style normally found in which people get emotional about thread content or are biased towards how they feel about a situation (see: your post).
It's understood that most, if not all units and players in the community tend to not exploit, though there is on occasion instances of questionable activity. The fact of the matter is though that without proper documentation/proof, it can become a starting point for alot of unneeded resentment and or misunderstanding; something I feel that your post does nothing but exacerbate. I could run around claiming that CHH Sturmadler, 1FSAC Checker, SJ Amarus, TLL Xermalk, or even Mechwarrior(3) were all making use of various glitches/exploits, but without proof, it becomes nothing more than slander.
