On March 5, 2009 at 12:05am, the Autoupdater achieved consciousness.

What have we done...

[Schultz]

Our companies will be terminated.

[Mysthalin]

NOT TETRARCHS! :OOOO

[Unkn0wn]

In the next update it will take over your computers.

[GrandRoyale]

Too late!  Microsoft has already done that!

I hear reports of people not being able to join games, due to their companies being exploited and over supplied.

better hit that clear profile button now and save yourself the public grief!

Seems I wasn't the first to find the exploit, albeit being the first to report it...

[MannfredvonRitter]

I lol'd, this guy and his buddy JUST beat me and my ally, kinda seemed like he had a lot of stuff.....

[Mysthalin_Axis]

That's almost 2k manpower he managed to hack, must be another way of exploiting it than mine :O.
He is missing 120 fuel and 10 muni, though..
My bet is, though, that he had hacked in a bit extra of both muni and fuel previously to your battle, mannfred.

Actualy, I told Some mod (koloth I think) in person the first time I stummbled on it.  I couldn't reproduce it reliably so I didn't know if it was a common thing.  

I did play a game or two with extra forces, but It only caused me to play more sloppaly, and I needed to figure out if it was even possible.  

After i lost my extra 3 squads of STs they were gone so i stopped worrying about it.  Though i had thought it fixed a few weeks ago.  It had something do to with renforcments, and PP's back when i found it.  Maybe there was a differant way?

Anyway, Glad they fixed it.

[Mysthalin_Axis]

My way of doing it, warlight, always worked reliably.
They removed a certain battalion building feature to combat it, though .

[salan]

its just nice to see the launcher saying 'Oh to bad for you, good bye!'

[Kolath]

Yes, it was me, warlight.  And we really appreciate everyone who has reported exploits.  It helps us make a better game.

Cheers!

We will also be releasing a more substantive game update soon.  Changelog will go up when it's released.

[EIRRMod]

Mysthalin, this exploit was different to the one you had reported.

Much more repeatable, and was possible to get virtually unlimited resources.

So, if you see someone with 10k+ manpower or high fuel / munitions, please screenshot and send to a mod.

Thanks

P.S.  Pointing and laughing at the exploiter is good too.

[Scyntos]

I can has sploited units?
