Nothing wrong with cod other than a bunch of campers and small maps

This is video footage of me being glitched multiple times by merc Ariana, of Ancient Exiles, during a tournament match (Synergy vs. AE)

(recorded on a potato, watch in HD)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZzknb2SiOg

as you can clearly see and hear, the melee glitch was exploited and clearly changed the outcome of the match.

All of this during CCP's marquee "PRIME LEAGUE" tournament.

Members of my corp sent this video in to urgent fury, contacted devs in IRC, and sent in support tickets.

Did CCP remove AE from the tourney?
No!
Did CCP dock AE points for using a game-breaking glitch in the tourney?
No!
Did CCP so much as contact their members to give them a slap on the wrist, or say "stop it?"
NO!

How in good conscience can the developers can allow a team who has been observed, and recorded CHEATING in an OFFICIAL THREE MONTH LONG TOURNAMENT to not only continue to participate, but win the tourney overall?

In this thread you will probably see a lot of AE damage control, saying things like "LOL WE STOPPED" and "IT DIDNT MATTER LEL" when Ariana recorded nearly 100+ kills in the 3 matches against us, and none of that reasoning changes the fact that they were recorded using a game breaking glitch in the tournament.

The worst part of all of this, is because CCP never took any action, more deserving corps never got their shot in the final rounds.

Why won't CCP do anything?
Do they not care anymore?
Have they given up on their game?
Will devs continue to turn a blind eye to this thread and my pleas for help in the announcements section, support tickets and IRC?


Furthermore, what would the community do? Ban their corp from the tourney for condoning and knowingly exploiting a game breaking glitch? dock them points? Kick them out of the semifinals and replace them with a more deserving team?

Also, how do you feel about CCP turning a blind eye to this entire fiasco, ignoring people's cries for help they're losing games because the other team is CHEATING?

Stay tuned.

***It has also been brought to my attention Ancient Exiles registered and used a player after sign-ups were closed. What the french was just disqualified for this, so an official CCP audit is requested***

We also have an admission of guilt by the glitcher himself!

Don't take alts the slightest bit serious. i guess he expected me to blow up and go on a chest thumping rant or something... I don't know...

I just laugh when I see one talking ****

Alt of who? The sad thing is you don't know me or how long I've been playing... Pretty much anyone has more validity on these forum's then you... You play even less then IWS and every post you make is more QQ....

That's all the post's that Synergy make...

Is just post's about crying...

and how this game is doomed..

and how you play other games like we don't....

OH NOES HE GOT MELEE'd and Synergy lost because of one guy!!!! pathetic

Stop bumping this stupid thread

And you want to know what's fact?

That entire squad SUCK if he was capable of melee glitching every one of them

The whole squad???

So yea...shut up marshmellow

Wether they suck or not also isn the point, he still used a glitch that gives him a massive advantage.

Why should one persons action nullify their entire corps contribution? I can't think of any reason. You want to punish AE for a single user. You want to punish the user for doing everything they can to win. The glitch is being fixed and you don't seem to care about that.

i got balls of steel

They teach this kind of level headed reasoning over at D-Uni?

Dust University is a bunch of **** heads, got, I hate you more than anybody.

OT: 90% of the playerbase don't know anything about this topic, 9% love Ari for making King Crybaby cry and the 1% are EoN.

Seriously how many time did AE use this glitch in the tournament. Once, twice, every game? I've only seen one example of the glitch being used which is no way a reason to disqualify a whole corp simply because one person used a glitch (I HIGHLY doubt one person won the match anyways). If anything is going to happen it should be a re match without the glitcher fighting.

God this thread is filled to the brim with fail and biased arguments from both sides. This is just fking ridiculous (Especially since this tournament was the most poorly organized fail of a tournament I've ever seen)

Really I highly doubt CCP will do anything about this simply because this was technically not against the rules of the tournament.

If it were to be ruled cheating to use the melee glitch then the team with the cheater should be disqualified. They knew that the person was going to use the glitch considering they have been in PC matches for a while now. They accepted it and allowed them to participate. At that point they accept responsibilities for the teammate's actions. It's that simple.

Prove that they knowingly allowed someone to glitch to win a match. All I've read is baseless arguments with little to no proof.

It doesn't even matter if they knew. I don't need to prove the highly likely case that a corp as organized as AE knows the tactics of their teammates or how unlikely it is that no one noticed the melee in the kill feed the whole time. My argument hinges on the fact that the corp is responsible for who it chooses to represent it. If they choose poorly then that is their fault and their problem if their chosen players "cheat". It's actually a really simple argument.

i mean is it really a glitch?

Your just sprinting and meleeing and sprinting and meleeing? Maybe he panicks and does it on accident. It is quite easy to do when you are trying to melee someone to death. You try to sprint to get closer, then melee, but then they back up, so you sprint then melee. All Ari did was sprint melee sprint melee. I mean nothing wrong with that. Its kind of like sweeping in mortal kombat, just doing it over and over.

Kry Kobrah said he did it to a full squad, He probably got super scared seeing so many people coming to kill him at once that Ari spazzed out and button mashed, causing this glitch to happen by mistake.

It's kind of like when you sprint while reloading your gun, you do it out of panic because your getting shot. Yet somehow it cuts your reload time by a few seconds. (especially if your a heavy) Maybe some people do it innocently. >:]

After reading the hole thread and al it's trolling and flaming I wonder wy CCP have not responded?
That's just plain rude if you ask me!
