    Blocking

    Hi there just looking for some feedback from members of staff only really. (no offence- but its their opinion that counts) Is blocking counted as cheating/exploits? Always thought it was cheap using them and they dont make sense (190 people coming back from the dead once the leader camp is destroyed =p) Well if it is a legit tactic Ill start using them, so let us know cheers

    for bb it's not supported so don't bother sending in any tickets when something goes wrong. It's more like an unintended way of playing and is tolerated.

    well the seem to place camps in a way that makes blocking possible, always one camp right next to leader ect. they could easily set up the camps in the new adv's so that blocks dont work. prob wasnt intended at first but must be taken into consideration when they are making new maps. i think they work for it to happen but dont support it so they dont have to deal with lag complaints

    well if it was there wouldn't be any guides or tutorials on how to block on the forums. not allowed to talk about exploits in public. Suppose to send those in to bb for review and not spread them around
    blocking been a method in this game used for over a year still nothing reported that says it's not allowed (other then those silly new adventures)

    They tried that. The lost skull is an example of killing 1 camp at a time. And most new adventures forces linear clearing of sectors :[

    As if I had seen somewhere a bb_ somebody's comment about blocking and locking, what says the design scene did not expect it or was not planned any meaning, so these are, let say, gamer developed strategies. However, because it does not violate explicit rules (such as using scripts, bother others or something) and use only ingame tools, insomuch as normal gameplay give the possibilities of these techniques, are not considered fraud.

    Because I can't link that post momently, maybe my memories cheat, so if that the case and nowhere such comment, then I apologize.

    For some people, thinking things through and calculating is already a form a cheating.
