Fixed: Battlefield: Surrender exploit

DeletedUser

As described in THIS THREAD, there's a critical bug that needs to be fixed at highest Priority.

While the exploit allowing you to hit refresh in a battle you're about to lose and saving your troops this way is good for practise and only fair as long as the AI still cheats with it's moving prediction, the bug described in said thread will get you virtually unlimited battlepoints, and thus rendering PvP Towers pointless. All you have to do is find yourself a sector that enables you to kill one or two enemy units first without suffering any hits. Once this is done, you can hit "Surrender" and start the same fight over and over again. Same map, same troop movements, same battlepoints for you each time.

I also agree... and believe those that have used the exploit, should be banned for life from FoE.

Thanks for posting it here, I couldn't do it before.

This is really a very serious issue, and need to be solved.

high priority bug, definitely exploitable, please look into this one AND solve it

No bug here, when the game encounters an error -- it automatically refreshes and message pops up giving me options to continue the battle or surrender

if you've read through the thread you'll find somebody talking about gaining an indefinite amount of BPs for as much as you can just by retreating after killing a few enemy units without taking damage on your troops...

... just for the record, before we all get hopelessly confused & confusing: retreating and surrendering are not the same thing. And Benjamin, please read the thread, okay? it's not about errors/reset scenarios.

As I wrote in the first post, there are two similar errors, flaws, glitches, bugs - whatever you may want to call them. One of them being a fair exchange for yet another bug, and the other one being really serious and gameplay influencing.

Last time I checked the refresh thing, my battle restarted exactly where it was when I hit refresh. Same damage on units, dead units were still dead, etc. So I cannot practice and save troops.

Are you saying some player can still do that and never lose a unit in a lost cause??
 

DeletedUser

Thank you!
Can I have some more provinces please to test the fix? I've arrived in Mount Killmore, so end of the road for me on en1....

Seems to still be working as I killed a crossbow unit and did the surrender part and got the points, 442 points, for doing it.

/bumping this as it is still happening and appears it was a missed fix.
