    Shooting range abuse.

    So seems people didn't get punished by gaining unfair advantage over other players by doing shooting range xp exploit. How come? How is it exploit? 10x times more exp than doing mission 1 time ain't exploit? Am sure it is.(You can probably get 3mil exp in time You do 1mission to get 300+k exp) Also they said exploiting game mechanics to gain unfair advantage over others will lead to account sanctions(Never happend to them).
    Why nerf shooting range exp then ? Keep it as it was since it was intended right? People did it to get 325k exp per 1minute. Am sure other people who will want just shd lvls will prefer 3mil+exp instead 300k.
    Just don't tell it aint getting advantage because most of us and my friends(Who ain't banned) Got more play time than popular streamers and also more kills pve exp etc and they are half their lvl because they didn't use shooting range. But since they got gear now they want shd lvls so let them abuse it as well.

    how many times do we need to explain this.
    The Shooting Range is not a Exploit because you are doing a activity the intended way, the XP pay out was higher then they intended, no doubt they didnt anticipate people to use it for XP farming judging form the fact no one used it in year 1 because its XP payout was garbage then and no real point in farming it for XP anyway.

    also you understand this, just because they have high SHD levels doesnt mean they have good Gear, and vise versa. so really it would be a even playing field. this is a game that focuses on Grind, if you arent willing to put in the grind to get your stuff then you arent going to hold up in PvP.

    either way they were going to be level 1000 by the end of the month anyway. wether they used the target practice method or played normally so its frankly a moot point that they have a advantage, Anyone who grinds more then anouther will always have a natural advantage thats just the nature of these games, so your whining is frankly pointless.

    So it wasn't a bug? I guess they just lied about the bug fix then. Whether it's XP or Loot, a bug exploit was in place on Target Practice and they fixed it. It's not really THAT hard to understand, is it? I guess grinding out 2x the amount of loot and XP per completion ( failing each round granted XP and loot) is just grinding.

    Target Practice XP Glitch was certainly an unintended outcome and developers didn't expect it to be used to level quickly but the same can be said for the DPS Glitch. It was an unintended outcome that gave higher damage output then intended. Players that abused the Target Practice glitch, should be subjected to the same manner as those that used the damage glitch.

    Both are glitches and Target Practice XP is no exception and players that abused this method need to have a 7-Day suspension on their accounts and including rollbacks. There are no favorites and both glitches gave way to unintended outcomes.

    learn to read the patch notes.


    Bug Fixes

    • Fixed an issue that caused the Tip of the Spear talents “Aggressive Recon” and “Crossbow Expert” to trigger when standing inside a DZ Safe House or DZ Control Point.
    • Fixed an issue causing Targeted Loot to drop more than once when failing and retrying the Target Practice Open World activity.
    • Fixed an issue causing a player to receive self-damage when killing an enemy player affected by the Full Flag debuff.
    • Fixed an issue causing no explosion to occur on downed players when an enemy player affected by the Full Flag debuff is downed.




    Game Balance


    • Lady Death will no longer enhance Turret Skills.
    • Reduced XP gain for the Target Practice Open World activity.


    XP decrease was part of game balances and Loot fix is a Bug not a glitch.

    The reason damage exploit got you banned but exp didn't:
    Damage exploit was after warning about exploiting.
    EXP exploit was before warning about exploiting.

    I assume that's what you were asking. This is some of the worst English I've read in a while so I can't be sure.

    Pretty much how it was explained to me.

    The actual exploit, apparently, involved players dying.

    It was exploitable before they fixed it. Learn to read reminders.

    They reclassified the XP as Game Balance chances not bugs or glitches, otherwise it was in the Bugs section of the patch notes.
