the only good thing about the left side of the recon kit is claymores so you can spam them in the titan

OK I don't have 2142 so can someone fill me in?

From reading the above I take it that you get a 'titan drop' point when someone leaves the pod, and it counts as leaving the pod if you change from one seat to another, so if you just keep switching seats you get a point each time. As well as that you get 20 points for a pin you get when you get 10 titan drop points. So if you switch seats 10 times you get 10 points plus 20 points for the pin = 30 points.

Did I get that right?

I think the simple solution to the glitch is turning off the transporter pin, then subtracting all transporter points + (20 x Transporter pins) from every account, obviously some honest ppl who actually try to get Transport points / pins in the conventional manor might get a little pissed, but thats ok cos really if transporting is your main aim at this game then really you should be playing a different game.

With this problem out of the way they can fix and restore it the way it should be.

You do realize, spawnofthemist, that now that the secret is out, everyone and their mother is going to exploit this until the next patch?  Way to go *insert random insult*; the number of people that read these forums is staggering, by noon tomorrow everyone will be glitching their way to the top (READ Moderators: silence this post).  Although I have to admit, this will probably get that patch out sooner than we expected, so it's not like it's the end of the world.  The top couple hundred (or thousand) players are about to get sent back to basic training, too...except me and a few other guys, probably.

Or limit how many titan drop points you can get and reset everyone with a 9000 best round.

I'm so glad you guys are helping to get the patch out faster! Nothing bad ever came from EA rushing things, right?

i say mad props for beating the system, hes clearly not the type to statpad for scoreboard purposes, and poses a good point that the people at EA/Dice are ADHD off the fuckin walls, and can't sit down for five minutes to do something right... We knew about 2142  when... like what october last year... know what i said when they released it? About fuckin time.... it shouldn't take a whole year to program a game with no graphics upgrading with no new engine making this "game" more or less a mod.  And know what.. those retarded lazy disfunctional drones at Dice released the game too soon... COME ON... if ur gonna spend a year modding a game... spend some time fixing the bugs

exactly.

even after the closed alpha, open beta 1, open beta 2 and closed beta 3   (which THOUSANDS of people participated in) there are still bugs like this one.

But.. the beta testing was open to us..
so are we to blame?

or was that a coverup by DICE so they could shift the blame if something this big got through..

my guess is the latter..

u sould have seen them ''testers'' it was like they were playing to get number 1 in the ranking system, no1 was finding glitches and some were stat padding.

but when i was in beta i never knew u'd get points for hovering  over titan and drop ppl of and i NEVER saw any1 do it.

All the so called secrets should be in the open as soon as possible to uncover the crappy coding and useless programmers that no longer take pride in their work.

The more people using the glitches and padding their way to the top the better, that may and i only say may get EA to realize they should do their job much better than this.

This is what i suspected from the beginning and is why i didn`t spend any money on BF2142, BF2142 is worse now compared to how BF2 have ever been.

So for the first time in history i want to thank spawn for a job well done

wow, I didn't know about this glitch. I remember now playing on Sidi the other night and there was a guy hovering like 400m above a base, I figured he was doing this just so we could cap the flag, I guess he was glitching though. It's like they turned the age old tactic that has been around since BFV into an exploit. gg EA

















FAIL!

It's probably something that was introduced since the beta, possibly even as a fix to something else that was spotted.

this is exaclty how you show EA that they should have taken care of this initially. nothing gets the point across better than rubbing their noses in it.
