Hey remember the time the JP got CoP like a week before us (and exploited the Barone thing)?

[Banigaru]

Corsairs own Overlords if you're playing some stupid Zerg player who zergs their overlords. A smart zerg player uses their overlords as constant surveoyrs of his/her base, never grouping them, maybe sometimes their tracks overlap but never gathering. And if they aren't gathered the splash damage from sairs is almost weak enough to ignore.

Well yes, that is very true on Ladder maps, but I used to enjoy playing on $$$ maps alot where people usually clumped OLs together, in which case it wasn't uncommon to own some OLs with like 2 groups of corsairs in the middle of a base, but using individually, disruption web was kinda ownage.

Wasn't that because a Hurricane hit Alabama and disrupted the CD factory where CoP was being made? That was the bullshit story told to me by EB assholes when I asked where my game was.

No CoP got released a week after. We actually got it like a week + however long extra that hurricane added.

I blame George Bush and the godless country we live in for that hurricane.

What other reason would there be to delay CoP?

Bush and lack of a god.

What was the Exploit?

[layoneil]

the NPC selling price was lower than the NPC buying price.

buy for 500k sell for 2M, straight up in game gil duping.

Holy Ballz

[layoneil]

i made up the numbers because i'm not JP but it was something like that.

and it wasn't as widespread because the NPCs don't sell you everything until you got to X mission and even most JPs didn't get that far before they patched it.

1) Buy barone gear
2) Sell barone gear
3) Repeat

It was in Mhaura, and I think it was something far less than 2 mil.

They need to have Job Class: Lawyer in FF, to settle the oh so many drama disputes that happen weekly.

They do. It's called Beastmaster.

Beastmaster was called Mediator in FF5.

Sadly they nerfed the Beastmaster's best dispute solving ability in Dragon's Aery- Morbol Justice.

Well... Maybe not so much "sadly"...

[Zigrah]

That exploit wasn't very well known and like people said was patched pretty fast. I am sure they dealt with the people who capitalized off it too, Inflation didn't really go up with COP. People abusing exploits are usually pretty noticable in a game and unlike NA gm's the JP gm's know how to do their job.

This thread was better when It was about starcraft.

Corsairs own overlords hard.

Corsairs own Overlords if you're playing some stupid Zerg player who zergs their overlords. A smart zerg player uses their overlords as constant surveoyrs of his/her base, never grouping them, maybe sometimes their tracks overlap but never gathering. And if they aren't gathered the splash damage from sairs is almost weak enough to ignore.

Normally if im zerg I send in about 4 groups of hydras along with at least 1-2 groups of overlords to keep watch on anything going on. they also happen to hide the hydras under them so my opponent has a hard time taking them down. And in the chaos just throw like 1 group into an overlord or 2 and land them right on their harvesters ^_^
