Please propose solution to the current situation ( android exploit)

[Monteverdi]

To get Gree started, here some proposals to deal with the current situation:

1. Close the loophole
2. Delete ALL apollo rank units from inventory by replacing them with a specific dummy unit
3. Ask legit apollo rank players to send in tickets to get their legal units back
4. Set valor of ALL players to whatever would be appropriate ( 20 m ?) , sorry legit players but you will manage to get your valor back in no time, glitchers will lose their advantage.
5. Set cash of ALL players to an appropriate amount ( 20 b ?), again sry legit players but it won't hurt you in a long run
6. Compensate all players with 200 gold one time.
7. Never again implement changes to the game on a Friday !
8. Now, you all have fun again.

Thats so stupid. that will never happen

[sstuutss]

And here wasI thinking it was one of the more useful posts of the evening.
Now it might not play out exactly as above but yes there is alomst certainly going to be some collateral damage. either that or nothing will be done.
If you've got a better idea lets hear it.

Any legitimate DBA can query the database using rules to look for players with illegitimate units. The units can be removed in a way that it won't affect legitimate players.

At any rate, this problem is so bad that I'm willing to bet that legit apollo rank players wouldn't mind having their units removed without compensation. They probably have monster IPH anyway and will be able to get the units back with no problem. They can probably afford to buy more than 100/day.

Said legit DBA could also look for monster cash/valor amounts in illigitimate players and remove their cash/valor (to 0). It's an acceptable price to pay for cheating.

IT's a simple solution:

1) Any team using the glitch by any player gets disqualified from this ONE event - makes a BIG point for teams in the future not to use glitches.

2) Do a database search and anyone that is not apollo rank loses all the Ships / Planes and Cash / Valor - makes an even bigger point not to cheat the the future.

Surely these are simple things to do and would be very effective?!

[Big John]

Even simpler solution would be not to let it happen in the first place.

[DEWIN NUTTIN]

We gonna DEW what we always Dew, nuttin. Why? Because we ain't smart enough to mess in Gree's bitness.
We just stay in our lane. We be minding our nuttin bitness.

Plus one to this!

It's a start, but forgets that the cash could have been washed thru to the faction, building upgrades, unit purchases etc. also that some legit factions have materially depressed WD totals due to facing many opponents who have these.

The only real solution IMHO (not holding my breath),

1) full roll back all stats for everyone and every faction to snapshot in time (Weds last week)
2) refund all gold purchased by anyone since WD started
3) do not award any prize units to any faction or indy for this WD
4) apologize and staff some sort of devs after any Material RTW
Fix the damn thing once and for all (fire the fool who allowed it for the nth time and cost Gree the refunds I suggest)

Not a bad idea, but far to sensible for Gree to agree too

[goblue21]

again that will never happen....Swept under the rug

[Oh oh Gree]

I'm afraid (not scared but concerned) this issue cannot be corrected and thus the game has come to an end. Unless Gree has the ability to start over and make all players go back in time to a date prior to the release of the current update there is no fix to save this game.

They cannot fix it since they never fixed the Plane Glitch

[Big John]

Wish we could go back in time to the Funzio days.

[KillerDriller]

I was just looking at my droid account. The ship is locked. Is everyone referring to people geting units previously? Has the issue been repaired? To be honest, that ship has been locked on my droid account since the beginning.
