cheating is bad, m'kay?Let me spell it out to you...
For exploited ships, I don't know what we could do. Maybe go around killing people with godrolled ships (that we obtained legitimately)?
OMG the hysteria over the god-rolled ships gets more bizarre by the day, as it now seems to pervade almost every thread related to game changes needed, with Ziljan at the vanguard - he's like a dog with a bone, atm.
Let me spell it out to you...the only people affected by this are serial PvPers...anyone else getting up in arms is overreacting. Ergo, SDC et al have the most to lose by this exploit due to their playstyles. Check out the PvP league - god-rolls are just 'Engineers' in microcosm - how did the organisers deal with the problem of RNG advantages? They removed the upgrades from the tournament with one G1 module (why this one pointless concession? who knows!).
Some of you are implying 'this means I now have no chance if I meet a PvPer ship with god-rolls in open' - I have news for you, Ziljan - one, there is absolutely no guarantee their g1=g5 rolled ships are massively OP due to the very nature of RNG & two, if you meet one of these guys, you have no chance anyway - this is all they do day after day - they're good at it. They fight with others who are good at it...this makes them even better...they do this everyday....for hours...get it?
The god rolls will make ZERO practical difference to 99.9% of players - many commenters are using this issue expediently to put the boot in with unsubstantiated accusations & are just passive-aggressive PvP haters...probably jealous of the skills/ships (hard-earned in the vast majority of cases) on show.
God, I'm beginning sound like Jason Barron...someone kill me!
NO TIME TO PROOFREAD - ARGHHH!
So you're calling people like Jason Barron, Truesilver and countless other honourable PvPers passive aggressive PvP haters who are jealous of skillz because they speak out against cheating.OMG the hysteria over the god-rolled ships gets more bizarre by the day, as it now seems to pervade almost every thread related to game changes needed, with Ziljan at the vanguard - he's like a dog with a bone, atm.

Operation SmurfyBois 1.0:
Going to promote that everyone start ignoring posts from SDC 13th et al, and refusing to engage in any PVP until they create an operation that protests the recent Engineer Exploit resulting in ALL GOD MODULES BEING REMOVED FROM THE GAME, and PVP viability is restored.
So in the light of recent revelations from FDEV one has to ask... Is this still happening?![]()

It might lose a bit of it's momentum, if no one has any heat cannons left?![]()
cheating is bad, m'kay?
Yeah, 'cos my post says clearly that I agree with cheating & that I don't want this fixed or the offenders punished![]()
I was merely making a point about the overreaction by some members of the community in terms of how they can't play in open anymore as a result of an exploit that will never directly affect them!
#Strawman
And I was making the point that's irrelevant. Because cheating is bad, m'kay.
And I agree what you wrote there is a strawman
Breaking news: Operation Spicy Bois 2.0 has been unexpectedly cancelled due to SDC losing access to their heat cannons...along with the all rest of their modified modules.
Dammit, that was a good joke though, right?
