    Cheating at Survival

    Just saw online some guy bragging that he scored over 60k in Survival by using some glitch.

    My question is what exactly did he prove. So what you were able to cheat. What can you do by earning it though? I don't understand why players cheat at this game and then feel the need to act as if they accomplished something. So you are a better cheater then the rest.

    so he stood in the safehouse and dropped his flare gun over and over and over and over and thinks its an accomplishment, I think we have to just accept some people just arent very smart, its a tough world out there and some of our mothers maybe hit the bottle a little too hard or smoked a little too much while these special kids were being cooked.

    I believe that the devs are also aware of this flare gun exploit. It has been going on for quite some time since the release of survival. It has been forwarded to the team for "further investigation".

    I believe players do it, so they can get the weekly exotic cache and survival caches in one run. I believe the higher the score, the more survival caches you get at the end.

    Yep, its been there as long as i can remember. I think the max caches you are going to get is 8 regardless so they can stand there and cheat all they want, the only thing it accomplishes is letting everyone else know you are a tool.

    There is a whole generation that has grown up on xbox and play station and whatever else is out there..
    A lot of them would go right to the cheat code places as soon as they got the games..I imagine that generation is in their early to mid 20's right about now,dropping flare guns in a safehouse somewhere..

    Of all the problems with the game at the moment this glitch is the least I care about. Rather have the team work on the gear glitch or fix the unkillable glitch. Don't care if they never fix the flair gun. Doesn't matter too much just an exotic cache each week.

    It's actually four caches per week,since most people have four toons rolled.
    It's the best mode in the game right now and the most ignored..

    Its human nature. To be the first to claim they did it. I guess.

    Like being the first person on your street to own a BMW..... ^^

    Most ignore? Probably bc it was the most played when it came out. Played to ad nausea. Got all the commendations. Even played pvp with a friends. Managed to get a score of 36.5k...... so only ignore by those that have moved on Id say.

    Yea,most ignored,by devs..
    They haven't touched it in any way since forever and a day..Underground gets updated,DZ gets updated LZ updated..
    Survival.Nada,zip,zilch..
    Might not suck so much for so many players if they updated it once in awhile like they do the rest of the game.

    I see what you guys are saying, I just don't see what is to brag about. For example, "I just 60k score on Survival by cheating, cause everyone does it so that makes it ok."

    You have done what exactly. Cheated! You want a trophy for best cheater in the game, maybe we can arrange it so Massive will give you a trophy to go with your lifetime ban.
    As far as cheats in the game, that one really doesn't affect me or my game. I just don't see what there is to brag about. The player has reached a score that they aren't good enough to get naturally and wants the whole world to know he cheated.
