Ranked Server Breach

[=98=]

I wouldn't worry about it. It's only statpadding, a victimless crime (although, you will get stats wiped eventually), so i doubt anyone will think less of your clan...

oh ok its just i dont want a bad name for our clan so i thougt maybe doing that would show that we aint the noobs that have stoll are clan name and tag :) lol

oh yer and hi Hellsent :)

I laugh about stat padders, why do you play the game if you can get to 4 star in a few weeks? Whats the fun in that? You'll just get banned, if EA games even gives a rats ***.

I'm still wondering what this was about:

I really can't say because of an NDA, but if EA follows through with what they are saying, a lot of server owners and server companies are going to be pissed.

Kind of a cryptic message. When will you be able to tell us, or when will EA spill the beans? Are they finally canning the stats system (BF2142 would die without tracking unless they gave all unlocks to everyone)? I know you can't say, but I'm wondering what it is they're going to do...

Hopefully EA will give a clarification soon. Even the ranked server providers are a little baffled at this point.

They will not can the BF2/2142 stats system until BF3 is out, and even then i suspect it'll run for a while longer.

They don't really care about the stats or consumers anymore. They have already reset players with legitimate stats simply because they were near the top where the guys with hacked stats were. Even though they continue to stack serious papers on ranked server renting and people continuing to buy this game, they really don't care. They're looking at the next bottom line, the next game to hype and sell a stupid amount of copies. And once it sells a buttload of copies based on potential for greatness, they will abandon it as well. And features promised in press releases will never see the light of day, nor will balance issues and bugs get fixed. Game over, man, game over.

Their e-d*ck is too big.

I am a member of [MI5] and they're threating to null my internet :laugh:

Maybe if the whole TGN userbase invades em they'll shut it.

am i missing something? why would anyone be upset if the point system was discontinued? ther only thing i could really see is them discontinuing the entier logging system and user account system etc...

which might seem bad...but as long as the damn thing can still be played...no big deal right?? maybe????

please dont reply with ominous smilies grospkoff...

hehe

I don't think they would discontinue the user account system, as that is tied in with Gamespy. However, if they did decide to discontinue the ranking system (which my guess would be that they won't do it for a while now), they'll probably just give everyone all the unlocks and freeze your actual "rank" insignia and XP where it is at that moment in time.

Nothing more has been provided since this first came out, so I don't think anyone has anything to worry about. Looks like EA has dropped the whole thing.

So does that mean you can (finally :p ) tell us what they were planning to do that would have been so detrimental to server owners or is that still a no-no?
