There are now a few serious bugs for Sam to fix.


Please avoid scouting against any gangs with high Fame and high bounties as their calculations are all messed up.

I'm not sure what Sam will have to do (roll back) but it will be big and the less work we give him the sooner things will get back to normal.

Thanks :)

Tell ya what...

Until this whole mess gets fixed, I think I'll just refrain from ANY activities. As of right now, what's the point?

I've been kicking some ass in Din's Curse lately. I just can't bring myself to play DW, as I fear the addiction will come back. Only problem is, Din's Curse is sort of a new addiction too.

God, why can't people make games that are fun but aren't addictive :(

Just Cause 2?
Should be a great rush, but not a lasting thing, looks awesome either way...

Now excuse me, I have to go Highjack an airplane, jump out of it and onto a Heli, Highjack it and fly it into a construction crane, then make a getaway on a dirt bike!

The is all the fault of LoadSloanDelerious or one of his accomplices/aliases. He found an infinite money bug. At one point he tried to give himself 427 trillion dollars. The only thing stopping him was that the input field did not have that many digits so he actually ended up with only 4.2 billion.

I'm not really sure why he told me this. Maybe hackers like to brag. He said he didn't do it with intent to hurt the game but in the end he, let's just say, "used his powers for evil".

There are others here who have used this money exploit as well.


You know who you are. And so do I.

I had a lengthy chat with him and told him he needed to expose the bug to Sam but he was apparently too busy having fun with it at the time. He did at the time appear to actually have sympathy to the game and be concerned but in the end he has told me contradictory things and acted contrary as well so I really don't know what the truth is. Oh my god. I think this guy is Chaotic Neutral in real life!

Anyway I hope the damage is not already so widespread that the game requires a reset. But we may already be past that point.

It appears that the bounty stuff/fame stuff has been fixed? There is no gang with even legendary fame right now, and bounties appear normal?

Is the increased CR that the SS gangs are putting out today related to this?

Not to drag this thread back onto topic but...

Have we seen any official statement acknowledging that there is a problem yet? I mean, it's one thing to see weird stuff happening and assume that something wonky is going on but it's another to have the developer acknowledge the problem.


And my subscription is up soon and I, for one, have no intention of throwing more money at Sam if this kind of problem is going to be allowed to exist without any action on the part of the publisher/developer.

It has been discussed extensively in the marshal forum. Sam is doing what he can to fix it.

A public acknowledgment by the one person who can make a difference is called for.

Im sure he will let us know whats going on. For one, I think its like 4am in Ireland. And from his earlier post he seemed pretty busy in the day job. Throw in the mess he has to un$%#@, and hes gonna need a few hrs to straighten everything out before he makes a post.

Yes personally I hope the only effect of this, is a screwed up economy.  It can get worse, we can lose/burnout our only developer on something like this.  I know i'd be thinking "wtf do I do this again" if I were Sam... :(

I think a rollback  to early thursday (just before the big big payouts) would be best.  Then re-do the end week calculations and training?

Sam's currently at a conference in Portugal, which limits the work he can do at the moment.

You gotta remember that he has a life too :)
