http://mwomercs.com/forums/topic/190366-beat-this/ Fascinating thread off the main forums but to summarise - people were getting into matches for a period where everyone else was dc'd so were getting the title for 12 kills with literally no risk. Few people have now admitted they were the same... Explains a match a couple of nights ago when we saw a deathstar pilot on our side I'd never heard of that was dropping in another group. We expected him to be red hot and (to put it politely).... he really wasn't.....
I hope they do a rollback but would not count on it. At least ace of space was somewhat nice to have, now anyone will have it. If not "death star".
Yeah, there are way too many people with Death-Star under their name, but who got it because of disco-ed teams . . . even Proton. His tag is no more "real" than any other I've seen. I have yet to be convinced that a single player has actually achieved 12 kills legitimately . . . though I would love to see a real screenshot (of the actual end-of-round screen, showing all players and their scores) to prove me wrong.
Yea i faced a exploiter to, me and 1 more joined in a battle. He instantly teamkills me and goes to kill the 12 man disconnected on the other team. Funny thing is that he almost failed and was so close to getting killed by the turrets
Even without DISCO all it takes is 24 friendly players to sit down in drops and take turns taking the Private Match sandbox. Booya, instant 24 Deathstar Pilots. Titles like that mean shit.
I think titles are annoying. But that's a good thing for the title bearer. See, when you're grabbing locks now, there's a whole extra line of text. Means more info processing. Every little milisecond of reaction time counts, and maybe some people are slow readers... just sayin. xD
These are the people that need to have every Hero mech bought to their account, along with a 25,000MC credit on their account then be banned. NO REFUND ASSHAT!
Yeah, I'd believe maybe 1-2 Death Stars that aren't disco/boost/league related. It's just so hard to be the center of attention all battle, I don't think I've had 10 kills, and even an 11 makes waves. It's just one more for that 12, and it's going to go to lrms or someone finding an afk/hidden/retreated mech rather than the star.
