Goodbye people exploiting XP.
New daily cap of 35,000 XP earned through gameplay.
Guess no ones getting the bosses early then
-
That's fine for me, finishing 10 days early sucked. I definitely don't exploit it. I doubt I make 10k a day with gameplay. But with double XP all month, the many collections and RTTS. It was too quick. So that's cool.

What does this mean?
ONLINE HEAD TO HEAD
Players will now have the option to initiate a grief report in the pause menu by pressing L1 -

Ok. So let me get this straight. If they drop a Player Program that is usually around 35K in XP; does that mean I won't get that full amount; since I'll probably get some XP while attempting the Moments/Missions?
Or is this just for what you earn by playing the game? IE: What normally isnt doubled during Double XP times won't count towards the XP Cap?
It has to be just what you get for playing.
If it's not, then you're going to limit the amount of time people play. If you get 25K for completing a Conquest map, plus say an additional 10K while playing; then that means you may as well not start anything else until the 'timer' reaches '0'?
And what about people who grind online modes? Once they got 35K for the day; they won't get anymore XP?

No. It means Xp via Games such as Ranked, battle royals or against against CPU. Collection rewards, conquest, showdowns will remain unchanged

So any 'Bonus' XP won't be affected?
Holey they put a countdown or something in the game. If I'm close to 35K for the day I'm not starting/finishing something if I'm not going to get credit.
Gotta leave it to the eploiters.
Maybe instead of 'punishing' the community as a whole; they could've just gone in and said any abuse if playing the game would result in an automatic ban.
I'm sure they can check people's game history and see who's playing what.

What a joke..... Can't they just stop xp gains during whatever mode people are doing the walk method?

35,000 XP in a normal days play is like 10 games on rookie against CPU and winning 20-0 each time
Or maybe 15 ranked games
That is quite a lot.
-
Since i don´t win 20-0 on rookie, Collection / Bonus XPs aren´t affected and on double XP Days the cap will be adjusted - I think i´m good

Well, considering it's coming to the time of the year where I can only play on Saturdays and a few hours on Sunday.
I was planning on spending the whole day playing Saturday; but I guess once I hit that 35K, I'll play a different game.
So, what I'm looking at right now is if I can only get 35-70K a weekend, I'll be lucky if I hit 350K before the program is over.
I may hit it if there's a Double XP timeframe, or if I can complete some Programs/Conquest. The first time I don't hit the Boss Pack will the the last time I play this game.
But this is a crappy thing to throw on us right now.
So instead of banning people that abuse these methods, which SHOULD be considered cheating; they're going to 'punish' the community as a whole.
Probably not a good business decision with new games coming out soon and there stu being issues with servers.
I can tell you this: whether or not I finish playing this year; this will be my FIRST and LAST year playing this game.
Such a shame that a bunch of virgins who live in their parents' basements and have nothing better to do than to abuse game mechanics can ruin something for a while community.

They wait until late August to limit XP?
I guess when you make things up as they go along, you do this. -

I guess when you make things up as they go along, you do this.Exactly. It's not like these exploits haven't been happening since Day 1.
RTTS Glitch: patched
New RTTS Glitch: patched
Playing for HOURS and letting the game sit and not ending it until the new Inning drops: patched
Walking tons of baserunner: thought it was patched, or nerfed.But instead if handing out bans; let's just limit the amount of XP you can earn without doing exploits for EVERYONE.

I dont think they can ban people for just taking advantage of the game allowing you to do stuff though. That opens a whole other can of worms. If people were using third party interference, or manipulating the game in some way to force it to make glitches then they would have a case. So all they can do is try to fix it on their end which is were the problem lies.
-
I play offline only vs CPU games only and don’t glitch and make more than 35k a day. So rather than get rid of the glitches, they hurt everyone.
But they can’t punish the people who use the glitch because some of them are SDS’ favorite precious you tubers who get money for them and those people will never be touched
-
This is a great change. If you regularly play enough to get more than 35k in gameplay XP per day without the use of exploits then you're so addicted to the game that you probably need an intervention or something.
-
Nothing like a global solution to hinder all in the face of a small population exploiting the system.
35k xp daily cap is another highlight for the SDS Lazy-a$$ reel. An example of SDS ineptitude and willingness to harbor the most toxic of players.

Don’t be an idiot. The cap can be reached in 4 hours of RTTS normal play or 6 hours of normal (conquest) DD play. It isn’t hard and that isn’t a lot of time on a weekend.
This is another example of SDS not knowing their own game and just picking numbers out of a hat.
-
Looks like I’ll have more free time on the weekends once I hit the cap.

It's not cheating. The walk method isn't cheating and they took the lazy way out instead of patching the walk method. This is on the devs. I don't do the walk method either as that is a huge waste of time.
For them to do it this way, they need to release the xp gains earlier instead of waiting til the last week to cram as much as they can.

I never understood people being upset with people getting card earlier than them because they put more effort into the gaining XP. An exploit available to everyone doesn't feel like that much of an exploit to me. With that said, if others are earning 35k XP a day they will still beat most players to the big cards. I wonder how SDS is going to treat the non-gameplay XP like the inning conquest map. I would think they would need to limit gameplay XP to 35k and then not count the SDS developed program missions within that 35k.
