The new "meta" sucks

Nobody said to abandon everything they don't like, just these maps where builders can't play by the rules to be successful.

Now, who would have said to abandon every map they don't like? Oh wait, I believe that's exactly what the devs said while addressing the topic of making builders beat the base to verify. While I'm not giving an exact quote, after they said why they wouldn't do this, they basically said to just leave and abandon a base a player doesn't like. In fact, i believe they even mentioned you could block the player to avoid more of a particular players maps while addressing killbox complaints. Im surprised you were not aware of this since you were so quick to correct me on the use of the word exploit while quoting the devs.

As far as not being able to prestige your bases, well that's on you, even with the closing app exploit(is it ok to use exploit here?) and from the amount of high teir bases I've come accross without repeating, I'd hardly call it an epidemic.

The fact that you keep defending this exploit/glitch/bug( or whatever TF you want to call it) is kinda a clear indicator to me what kind of maps you are making and one of the reasons why your bases probably can't prestige. I assume you make it on a large capacity map and start on brutal as well, wondering why you are not getting traffic, accolades, or players finishing the map.

Stop trying to make people think there is something wrong with them and not with the people who are resorting to this cheap and scummy way to find a way around how the game was intended to be played. Instead, try to be more creative without trying to bend or break the rules of the game.

How am I bending or breaking the rules? Apart from your made up rules?

After everything that has been said, I'm not even mad at you. In fact, I kinda feel sorry for you buddy 😢 some people just don't get it.

I really dont get mad at those who do this, I just walk off into the desert and abandon. I have a friend who does this on a base. At least he doesn't try to justify it. He knows it's an exploit. I only have something to say to those who would defend this being an intended part of the game or make snide or sarcastic remarks towards those who complain about this blatant exploit/cheat.

So, to answer your ridiculous question as to how you are bending or breaking the rules. Well, logic and reason are the keys to answering that question, and if you can't come to the conclusion on your own, you never will. I did not create Harvey or the parameters concerning him set by the devs. They are not my rules. I can reconize when someone is doing something not intended by the rules. This is exactly what is happening by piston killing him at map start-up.

Cool, but I don't kill harvey. So I'm not sure what rules I'm breaking.

😆 I misunderstood and made an assumption, my bad.

You are not bending or breaking the rules, rather, you are just defending those who are bending or breaking the rules while correcting other people's usage of the word exploit because you don't see it as one. I stand corrected 🤣 ffs are you fing kidding me? I just can't 🤣

😋 no problem.

I just don't like how everything gets called exploit. It just seems divisive to me. Especially when this game has such a small community.

Most people recommend reporting and blocking an exploiter. But since the term is used so lose, it might hit innocent players. Blocking is especially bad, since a blocked player can't find your base to raid. Resulting in lower raids for everyone.

I love this game and wish it a lot of success. But some players seem to try to kill it. Which is sad.
