I find it odd that such a large hole, information missed by most, was so thoroughly exploited by a single entity. Information that a member of the CPM would be privy to. Now I'm not saying anyone told their corp about this function, while neglecting to tell the general public in order to get an edge. I'm just saying that if someone were to do that, it would be a gross misuse of their position. |

Guys, you realize we're not the first guys to do this, right?
I mean, I'm not one to take credit where it's not due, and the AWOXing was discovered a day or two before we employed it by another Corporation.
We just decided we had to take the opportunity to see if it worked.
Only thing I'm pissed about is only being able to play EVE atm, but at least I got to laugh along with everyone when they all loaded in and saw the scoreboard. |

it doesnt take a genius to realise that getting a squad into a match with a spy is possible. Maybe its because i have played eve that i decided to go for it.
Exactly what information you thought i had to make awoxing possible that was not available to anyone else? |

Right or wrong, it definitely sheds light on the need for a battle commander to be able to boot players who aren't doing their jobs. This honestly goes hand in hand with AFK.
If someone or a group of someones is sitting their committing suicide over and over and chewing through your biomass, the last thing you do is let them retain access to your clone vats >_<
It shouldn't be an instant kick, but it should put you in like a 1 or 2 minute count down, so if you're being a sneaky douche you can actually do sneaky douche things for a couple minutes still, but you can't just sit there and abuse it because it amuses you. Possibly a V2K system, but I know that also has its drawbacks. |

Dust, while I appreciate where you're coming from, that's the point in the game. You can easily turn your back on your employers/corporation and betray them for mistreating you or simply because you feel like it.
There should be a safety in place, though. Say, having to have a director on and approving players going into PC. |

But what I'm saying, is that if you have control over your own clone vats (which lets face it, a corporation should) you would simply revoke their access codes if they decided to do something like that. (or just afk, not listen to orders, be generally stupid etc etc)
So, it still leaves the possibility for sabatoge, without making it a free for all that any idiot can do for hahas with no effort and very little repercussions. Speaking strictly from the perspective of lore, it makes no sense at all. |

I agree it would not be New Eden without wonderful forms of betrayal, but where is the rock to counter these scissor tactics. There needs to be a counter action available. Not speaking from any firsthand pc betrayal experience, but from what I hear it doesnt take the investment time or effort of similar betrayal tactics in EVE. |

Frankly, if anyone does any of that, then they don't deserve to have been in the PC (or a PC corp) in the first place. The ability to grant a role to allow players into a match, as Jenza says below, still leaves room for any sabotage and clever play that a spy might be able to inflict. Moreover, if you let someone into the match and they much around, that's just a huge misjudgment on your part, and it's your own fault.
I recruited for an EVE highsec corp a while ago, a recruiting corp for a corp based in nullsec. I spent five minutes chatting to each one before accepting his application, including a look at his API and employment history. If there was anything wrong, I didn't accept him. In my three months of recruiting, I recruited perhaps 20-30 people, none of whom turned against the corp. In those same three months, only one of the many recruited turned out to be a pirate alt. And it's just as easy to make a pirate alt account on EVE than it is on DUST.
Buck up and toughen up your recruitment measures. If you don't chat to them, then you're doing it wrong.

It's a good idea, that way only the most trusted are able to participate in PC. Or, at the very least, you can pinpoint the source of the blame.
At the moment, being able to sabotage someone in PC has no real long-term effect. You need to be able to get into a director role and dismantle the corp for any true effect. |

While it's all well and good to allow spies and sabotage in the spirit of EVE, you ultimately can't forget that this is an FPS, and rewarding players (yet again) for not actually participating in a match is just bad form, as it ruins any form of amusement in the match itself.
So again, having a system in place that helps mitigate things like this by allowing a battle commander to actually command the battle would go a long way in helping keep things in check. Make sure people can still spy and be destructive, but at least make it entertaining. Right now it's just silly and destroys any sense of fun that's already pretty thin in PC matches as is

More safety - NPC Corps Less safety - Player Corporations
Public matches - Quckie to relieve tensions and no worries. FW matches - More organized work with some people that cares about what they-¦re doing. PC matches - Backstabing cutthroat maniacs that will do whatever they can to make your life hell, and where skill is necessary to avoid killing your teammates since FF is on.
I really want the RTS aspect of the game to be implemented soon, i-¦m good with snipers, turrets, logi and nova knives (a-w-e-s-o-m-e), but i know i-¦m not very good on the fps side.
What i am good at, is pressing down, looking at the map, and coordinating the little dots as i analyze the patterns and have a goal in mind. FC-¦s and Commanders could use some better tools to work with.
1 - An effective briefing room If i own a district, i know what-¦s in it, and if i now what-¦s in it, i should have acess to the map prior to battle, so i can show people what i want them to do. Reference 1 Reference 2
2 - More information at the map for those who want to command. Being able to see names and health status of your squad (Biomonitor) Upon encounter, being able to have the name of the enemy at your screen, and the possibility of ordering attacks to individuals.
3 - Implementation of the equipment support Send instalations to the battlefiels and review the requests from the players. Need a supply depot in the middle of the map? No sweat, here it comes. It-¦s the 4th tank that you-¦re asking for? Denied.
4 - Set locations for orbtial strikes. Place an X at where you want to bombard, and let your players get to at least Y meters from said location to give the specific coordinates for the OB. Like a ghost that needs to point the exact location
5 - Options and UI Some people will want to centralize the authorizations of the team, others, will delegate each squad member with what they judge best, give options for those that want to do one or the other. Something like "Corp armory acess" roles, and let each team judge how best it fits them on this.
6 - Desertion/Treason A proper structure so i can remove afkers and traitors from my team (not from the match). Example, i have an operative that went rogue/afk, i remove him from my team, but he stays at the match until he dies. The only difference is that i-¦ve blocked his clone signal and he can-¦t respawn at the battle, being dragged to the lobby, and making a spot vacant in our team.
That-¦s all that came in mind right now. The main point being: Give us tools to manage our lives, and we-¦ll be happy doing our own thing.

I like your other suggestions too, but this one especially. Backstabbing should primarily come from friendly fire or clever schemes, not lol afk or suicide. |

Pretty much this, people figured out you could do it before PC was even out. It was just confirmed by BetaMax doing it last night. (Not sure if you was the first to do it but it defiantly got the most publicity) |

I-¦m completely in favor of awoxing, i just think that Commanders should have more control of the squads/teams and be able to kick people out of the squad/team, not from the match.
(Now, if you have an awoxer commander or squad leader, then things get interesting)
If it requires too much codework to implement something like this, then use attributes already in place.
Example: When there are no clones available and you can-¦t respwan. Make it possible to flag someone with this attribute, so i keep him in the squad and loose a spot, but i restrict his damaging potential as he won-¦t spawn again, "just" taking a spot. |

Could care less. She used information she got from CCP no one else had to exploit a broken system and dismantle a corporation. Shes a cheat.

It's called mechanics.
Even something as simple as being able to boot the guy who's kid just started crying and he has to afk for the match would fall into this category.
No need to call me names for suggesting that the mechanics in an FPS actually gravitate towards enhancing the FPS experience I want corporate spies and sabotage, it livens up the game, but it's not exactly interesting to say "we infiltrated their corp, and then like, sat around all match....man, we should be on DUST true stories"

Also, using ad hominem on Jenza is simply incredible.
This can easily happen, within any games that has a very hardcore PvP. I just thing PS3 players arent used to it.

Apologies for name calling, but I get a little frustrated sometimes. I try not to resort to anything more personal or serious than "you're an idiot".
I disagree that there should be a kick mechanic. There's a lot of abuse that can come from that one command. Let's say the commander is the spy - he kicks everyone from his corp from the match, they get back in, rinse, repeat. Unfortunately that destroys the gameplay element to the degree that the game is literally unplayable.
I can agree that the current PC mechanics of getting into the match aren't ideal, but there are ways of fixing those instead of just saying "grant me a kick option". For example, Jenza's idea of the role granting permission to members to join PC. |

This was not an unknown problem. Heck it was brought up several times in the PC megathread well before Uprising even launched. I suggested the roster system before even Fanfest and I believe it was even talked about during the PC roundtable.
Anyone should have seen this coming - I felt so stupid when I realised what had happened to my own corp, knowing that it was I who let the spy in the day before and that I even recognised his name when he applied.
Yes, it's crappy that we have so little control over who can enter PC matches but CCP has confirmed that they know about the issue and have been looking at ways to mitigate it but as IWS said elsewhere, we're going to be waiting until the next big patch because this isn't a simple streamable hotfix. |

I may be a noob, okay I AM A NOOB....
But what is awoxing?
NEVERMIND:Eltra Ardell link showed me the definition
AWOXing: the act infiltrating a corporation in Eve Online and taking advantage of game mechanics that allow you to easily find and initiate combat with your new GÇ£corpmatesGÇ¥ regardless of setting. It is often done in the pursuit of lulz and profit.
On another note. This is EPIC!!!! Go Jenza, I didnt know you had it in you. I am so proud. |

The kick option is, as it always has been, the best option available. Just as if you were to remove someone from a fleet, the kick option would remove a player from the battle. Simple as that- solves any problem that could ever arise. |

At least make it so that a CEO/director has to grant you permission to enter as a squadleader, and then anyone doing something stupid can get kicked.

Ok, so I really think you are raging in the wrong direction man. If what is being alleged is true, all she did was use the tools she was born with to pry info out of a weak link. It has happened all throughout history by women seeking information in times of both war and peace. It happens, deal with it.
However, having stated that; if these allegations are true, then CCP's IA has someone to can. Loose lips sink ships, apparently between the alcohol and the female attention, someone decided to loosen their lips. If you cannot maintain professional integrity then you have no right to be mingling with people who will be seeking sensitive information (read: The entire playerbase of New Eden).

I am surprised the CPM is getting blamed. I mean I remember reading a fan-fiction posted to the forums concerning this very tactic months before the CPM or PC was around. Everyone loved the idea of friendly fire in it. Just it seems someone took that fan fiction story seriously enough to put themselves in a position to be doing it today.
but hey free internet cookie if you can find it, I am having a hard time remembering the title or author. |

There should be a safety in place, though. Say, having to have a director on and approving players going into PC. i was going to suggest a role (once seperate roles are in) to allow members to join a corp match. that way awoxing is still possible, but needs a little more work on the side of the spai
That's just common sense, with anyone in corp being able to join PC matches, you have to seriously herd many of the grunts to not join it.
Its up to CCP to fix it, if a simple meta game exists players will do it.

Exactly what information you thought i had to make awoxing possible that was not available to anyone else?
I recommend H.G. Frankfurt's On Bullshit. It's a good read. |

I wonder how that worked our for Warriors? :3 |

Blamed no.... however the complacency on the issue is the issue. To chalk the up the current broken mechanics as meta-game makes the game look like a fraud. Highlighting these low level spies being able to cripple corporations cheapens the game. To do the amount of damage these spies are capable of doing should take months if not years of socializing and building trust to earn roles. The current mechanics force corp leadership to have to jump through hoops managing holding corporations in order avoid one spy from getting in. Also any disgruntled member in the corp is capable of causing a corporation to loose all of it's districts in a day with minimal effort and no roles assigned to them. The best part is if they choose no one will ever know who betrayed them. |
